Blog to discuss the book "The Apocalypse - Letter by Letter: A Literary Analysis of the Book of Revelation" and current events that point to the events described therein.
On this fourth of July, America, the greatest nation on earth, celebrates its founding. Though a non-Catholic country, it remains a mostly Christian one and Christian principles still are valued.In the Book of Revelation, Chapter 12, a woman is forced to flee to the wilderness. She is aided by the two wings of the eagle, the great one. Providence ensured that the national symbol of the United States of America would feature a great eagle. In the Bible, the eagle is used in prophetic writings to symbolize a nation. And as explained in a previous post, the woman is the Church, the Roman Catholic Church. The Eagle will come to the aid of the woman because they share common history and values, as well as a common enemy. At times, it seems as if all goodness is being sucked out of our great nation. But Providence has made it that the United States will come to the aid of a persecuted Church hierarchy and evacuate Rome using two military transports - the two wings of the great eagle.This is all explained further (and better) in The Apocalypse - Letter by Letter. All that remains to be seen is if enough good people will be left in government to do the right thing when the time comes.Labels: Great Eagle, Woman Clothed with the Sun
