it was exciting. And let us go by the same rules as we did then. We can vote on it.

If the world can have a book club. Let’s read Reveltion no commentary same version. Either “KJV” or “ASV” or earlier “NIV” (NIV 1977 - 2010 no later). Just the Bible reading. No footnote reading. A dictionary along side. A week should be good for everyone. End of week start your Revelation “POSTS”. No commentary reading, just your bible! We can reply here just say I’m game and lets vote on the translation. I chose those 3 types for a good reason! “

“ASV” is a more word for word translation of original text, reading is not to smooth as others. But closer what GOD really said.

“NIV” earlier translation is a good very good text of original text trying it best to stay there. pre 1984.

“KJV” (oxford not Cambridge). Version . Many still like the flavor the smoothness of this text, the flow of the a an character and the beauty of its words and construction. In which really is “William Tyndale” who created a lot of the English words in the Bible in which was no words to describe the original “Holy Scriptue” words. Like the words he created: “show bread”. The term “Thy kingdom come” “Passover” “atonement” “mercy seat”. He also coin these phrases “ seek and you shall find”. “ judge not the you might not be judge” “knock and the door will be open”. He coin these phrases, God gave him the gift of Languages [tongues] he spoke “7 languages” fluently like it was his own, Greek, Hebrew, french, English, Italian, Spanish, I cannot remember the other one right now. I love the flavour and flow of a good “KJv”. Especially The New Scofield study bible copyright 1967! Not for footnotes. The printed text (1967). Love it .

So let’s see how many are game to charge through Revelation as one body, one mind, one translation of vote!

just say i m game and state translation. votes will decide translation. 2 day vote time.

With Moderator‘s approval and advise please.
It is just a thought no biggie.

update; polls will close on 9/13/22... and the reading will begin for 1 week. the end of completion is 9/20/2022
 
I'm game. I've added it to my calendar.
1. NIV (possess 1984 copyright)
2. KJV
3. ASV (will need to purchase this one and so I don't mind really at all if this gets the vote :relieved:)

Copyright of Bible version is always at the Bottom of Page. At the top of page all types of "Versions and paraphrases" and maps on the side of page. "Enjoy"

Thank you
 
WE will come before his feet bowed down in mind in the Preparation with the Melody of song and prayer. asking him to show us what he wants to show us and not what we want to see ourselves.:pensive: Wash us LORD in The "Sanctification and Holiness" prepare us LORD, as One in our Lord and Anoint us with "The ANOINTING of GLADNESS" as we read thy word as One. "Let it be one LORD" Make room for us, you did say, where there are 2 or 3, let it be Lord, let it be. For we are "The Sheep of your Pasture" Let it so be. :pensive:
 
We must prepare for The Battle, it may seem like we will be Climbing a "Mountain" But be sure of This, This Time we must prepare and Put on, Our War Clothes, and "Knee Pads", "Instead of Climbing Clothes and we got to "Sanctify our Hearts" Now Meditate and give it thought, and "Count The Cost" We will be engaging a "Demonic Host' as We Cross A Land Heading to A Place Called "Beulah Land" and Heading and Traveling among a Host, of Demonic Forces, of All kinds, Trying To Divert our Path, and bring us to a HALT!

 
Well does it take all of that, :eyes: Oh yes, and Much more!..............This time it will, ..............For Outside forces, Will Try to force their way in, With a Vengeance. You will have to Call on His Name! "Mark My WORDS", "Help me LORD" "Help Me LORD" to Finish reading THY BOOK, and Show Me, LORD, what You want me, to see In Thy "TRUTH"! And In Thy TRUTH ALONE! For you Are MY FATHER! And I Need Not A MAN! Because I got You!:relieved: I got You LORD. Hold my hand, as I cross this land. :pensive: Heading To "BEULAH LAND".



From "BEULAH LAND" from There, you can see "The CELESTIAL CITY":relieved: Which Lies Beyond 'The FARTHEST HORIZONS' OF ALL THE LANDS! WHERE IS YOUR FAITH, "FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD"!

PSALMS 91 (KJV)

My Refuge and My Fortress

1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thyshield and buckler.

5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
:)
9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.:)
 
HE did promise that He will went away to Prepare a Place, and He would take us there>:pensive:


It should almost be that time.
 
For we who are "The FEW", are making "Our Approach" Traveling Down a "FAITHFUL Run WAY" as we may descend that we may "Ascend".

1"Make a joyful shout to the Lord, [a]all you lands!
2Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
3Know that the Lord, He is God;
It is He who has made us, and https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/100.htm#footnotesnot we ourselves;
We are
His people and the sheep of His pasture.
4Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
5For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations."
 
@Christ4Ever
I understand. You will never learn as good just from reading words as you do with a Teacher/leader who can explain it better AND has the source material along with other aids.

Dear Brother,
And more importantly the Holy Spirit to truly guide and provide the understanding to whoever that Teacher/Leader may be.
I agree with your sentiment, but I also believe that interactive as I'm sure as this will be, it too can be conducive to growth/understanding as many small groups are when Spirit led.
Appreciate your understanding.

Again, as I did with the other postings with no animus. I'll delete these postings at the appropriate time so that this group may continue with as clean a slate as possible.

With the Love of Christ Jesus Dear Brother.

Here comes another blessing concerning, just "listening to A story about "The Life of Christ' when He walked "Among His People". another Preparation before we come together and Just read , a "story "concerning " "The Revelation of Jesus The Christ of The Living GOD"

A Reading of The Book According to "Mark", by:


IT used to be a time in history, the people went to hear the unadulterated Reading of "The WORD of GOD". The one who Read it, were called "READERS' did you not know "The Congregation of GOD had "READERS" and They where GIFTED in READING The WORD of GOD to His People. :pensive: For many could not afford a Bible, many could not read, so God sent them Readers!

Note; I did not say or referred to "evangelistic" proclamations to The Unconverted. But GOD is The One who saves.

For those who do not have the time or patience and some kind of handicap to keep them from reading in such matter or way. Why not try Listening to "David Suchet" reading of The Book of REVELATION. on cell phone. "YOUTUBE"

I haven't heard him "reading it yet" But I did like his reading of "The GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN" and was impressed. I try every night to listen to The Prophetic Books to rock me to sleep, and some how, I woke up to The Reading to The reading of "David Suchet" of The Book of The Gospel According To LUKE. Actually I woke up as He was being "Introduce" as The READER of The Book of LUKE un-interrupted for a bit over 2 hours non stop. So before I cleaned UP, I LISTEN to him read, While making up my bed. and brewed a cup of cafe, and set down a while and washed up. I enjoyed the straight reading.
Maybe some might want to listen to The Book of Revelation as He reads it for this quest. For the week of "REVELATION".
 
Nehemiah 9 (NIV).
"1On the twenty-fourth day of the same month, the Israelites gathered together, fasting and wearing sackcloth and putting dust on their heads. 2Those of Israelite descent had separated themselves from all foreigners. They stood in their places and confessed their sins and the sins of their ancestors. 3THEY STOOD WHERE THEY WERE AND READ FROM THE BOOK OF THE LAW OF THE LORD THEIR GOD FOR A QUARTER OF THE DAY, AND SPENT ANOTHER QUARTER IN CONFESSION AND IN WORSHIPING THE LORD THEIR GOD. 4STANDING on the stairs of the Levites were Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani and Kenani. They cried out with loud voices to the Lord their God. 5And the Levites—Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah—said: “Stand up and praise the Lord your God, who is from everlasting to everlasting"

Joshua 8 (NIV).
34Afterward, JOSHUA READ ALL THE WORDS OF THE LAW—the blessings and the cursesjust as it is written in the Book of the Law. 35There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua did not read to the whole assembly of Israel, including the women and children, and the foreigners who lived among them.

New King James Version
not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

For we are a "SPIRITUAL BODY" so let us "ASSEMBLE" here. At The Book of REVELATION.

Ezra Reads the Law
1At that time all the people gathered together in the square before the Water Gate, and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring out the Book of the Law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded for Israel. 2On the first day of the seventh month, Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly of men and women and all who could listen and understand.…

There is A Time for every thing.


NASB 1977 "Revelation 1:3"
BLESSED IS HE WHO READS AND THOSE WHO HEAR THE WORDS OF THE PROPHECY, AND HEED THE THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN IT; FOR THE TIME IS NEAR.
 
I want to be around My people, My people have no color, MY people have no "Animosity" against me. My people Our GOD have taught us how to Love another, Our GOD has taught us how to love each other, Our Father has taught us, everyone is not my brother or my sister. Our Father gives us directions, and He will never leave us astray who we should Love with a special care. I want to sing with My people, I want to walk with my people, I want to fellowship With My People, I what to pray with my People! And Only with My PEOPLE! My People we come from a "FAR OFF LAND" And My PEOPLE we LONG For THAT LAND! The ANGELS IN HEAVEN, WAITS FOR OUR ARRIVAL! The BEAST who Lives In HEAVEN, cannot hardly Wait The DAY WE ALL ARRIVE!

And In that DAY, We ALL will ARRIVE at THE SAME time! "The FIRST will be LAST and THE LAST will BE FIRST" We ALL will Arrive At The SAME TIME! "For The DEAD in Christ Will RISE FIRST and We who have remained Last SHALL "APPEAR" With THEM IN THE SKY" And WE ALL SHALL BE WILL JESUS FOREVER AND FOREVER MORE! And HE WILL TAKE US To That HOME in A "FAR AWAY LAND" "FAR BEYOND THE FARTHEST HORIZONS" In SUCH "SPLENDOR" and "A MANIFESTATION Of GOD's GLORY"!!!


New King James
"For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep.

"The Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord."

New American Standard Bible
"For we say this to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive [l]and remain until the coming of the Lord will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a [m]shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who remain, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord."

AND WE WILL BE BACK!

ISAIAH 13

“Listen! There’s a noise on the mountains
like that of a great multitude!
Listen! There’s an uproar among the kingdoms,
like that of nations massing together!
The LORD of the Heavenly Armies is mustering
an army for battle.
They’re coming from a faraway land,
from the distant horizon—
the LORD and the weapons of his anger—
to destroy the entire land.”



Jeremiah 31:34
No longer will each man teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquities and will remember their sins no more."

NASB 1995
Now as to the love of the brethren, you have no need for anyone to write [teach] to you, for you YOURSELVES ARE TAUGHT BY GOD to love one another;

[He is more to us than "GOD" he is Our FATHER! He is not the father of The WORLD, TO THE WORLD, HE IS GOD! BUT TO US, HE IS OUR FATHER!:sob:
MANY Christians have no idea what THAT MEANS!:(

AND A LOVING FATHER WOULD NEVER CAST HIS CHILD INTO THE STREETS! ESPECIALLY IF YOUR FATHER IS "GOD"!:pensive:]
 
For Those who wish to hear, I will do both myself, because I have never heard "John Suchet" read Revelation.
