Sean, I told you this before, but u as usual you forget the things you do not want to remember. But there is STRICT restriction and limitations to what the meaning has to be if it is figurative in Revelation. IT HAS TO BE USED IN A FIGURATIVE SENSE SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE BIBLE, usually the old testament, AND IT MUST BE SELF-EVIDENT that it is referring to something. That is a far cry from the sky is the limit and whatever our imagination can contrive is the limit.
You're not even being honest in our chats when you say the nonsense that there is no limits to what we can imagine for the meaning.
For example, Jesus is not A LAMB in Revelation because lambs are nice and Jesus is nice. He is not a lamb w=for whatever other imagination you can come up with. He is lamb whose blood REDEEMED US (
Rev 5:9) because the PASSOVER LAMB foreshadowed Jesus in Exodus. That restricts the interpretation. AND THAT IS THE SAME THING FOR EVERYTHING ELSE IN REVELATION. That's why I referred to
Deut 6 and the law between eyes and on hand to find the principle of what the bible means when it says the hand and forehead in Revelation.
Now, you'll just forget that again, like you did since the last time I explained this. And you'll continue to dishonestly tell everyone we imagine everything we 'claim is an interpretation to what we claim is figurative in the bible. So you're not even being honest in our chats. Nor with yourself, for that mater.
But you read it at face value here but not there. You read BUYING literally in
Rev 13 but not in
Rev 3. You are inconsistent. Go figure.
