Let’s celebrate the Apocalypse, says Vatican – Telegraph: “Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican secretary of state, said: ‘These masterpieces will help visitors to reread the last book of the Holy Scripture. The Apocalypse is not the worrying announcement of a catastrophic end to humanity, but a great proclamation of the failure of the infernal evils and of the mystery of Christ.'”
Jesus indicates that they were celebrating before the flood came and took them all to their deaths and now you are advocating that people do the same thing. Jesus said people would do this just before the judgments (mat 24:38).
The Apocalypse is God’s judgment on evil people on earth before He sets up His earthly Kingdom. The only hope given is to believers and it is not a fleshly hope, most will die. There is no hope at all for unbelievers on the earth and that will be the vast majority.
You do not think the judgments will happen literally as John saw and heard and that is why you sugar coat what will actually happen. Jesus talked about this period and said it would be the worst period that ever would occur on the earth and that no flesh would be saved if He did not shorten the days (Mat 24: 21-22). Sugar coat that! If anyone really wants to know what the Apocalypse actually teaches they should read my Revelation Commentary.
