Apocalyptic literature (Book of Revelation)?

[@roddumlauf9241]

Aldeureaux....Revelation is Apocalyptic, allegorical language, and therefore not literal, highly symbolic. Example...the thousand years reign of Christ means "forever "or a long long time, not a literal 1000 years.

Its not a history or science book either.

[@warnerchandler9826]

Where it touches history and science it is necessarily true.

The Bible is not a Cocktail and Spirits Recipes book either, a bar !interesting background representation,lot of people have a cross or trinity y’all have a bar what in the hell , might as well roll up some spliffs 😃what kind of spirits are you all chasing here or being lead by?while reading the word of God ………why not get some neon beer logos too and hang up in the background hey how bout maybe some that say sola scriptura ! There is a time and place for everything

Ha. What are you talking about? Did you even engage in the subject matter or just view the whiskey bottles and render your interpretation of the whole scene? Perhaps you should watch some of the other videos in this series they might prove helpful. It's dubious to cast aspersions in this way to get at the truth.
