And every ISLAND fled away, and the MOUNTAINS were not found...
This is a line out of the 16th chapter of the book of Revelation in the New Testament, which is supposed to provide readers with clues about the End Times that we are allegedly living in.
Logic would have it that an island can't "flee away," so I had to think that this description was figurative of something that was NOT (in reality) an island.
I have recently read a book that, among other things, explains exactly how an "island" can flee away, and how the "mountains" that are presently somewhere will not be found where they presently are.
Here is the profound explanation found on page 166 of the book:
"The prophets figuratively characterized those who put themselves above others as “mountains.” Those who isolate themselves from the rest of the world, believing they are more righteous than others, are expressed as “islands.”
If "mountains" are figurative depictions of men, and "islands" are also, then those great "earthquakes" it talks about taking place in the End Times are probably NOT literally earthquakes either.
It says:
"And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great."
It goes on to say:
"Because of the truths that are being revealed (which start with these truths being unfolded at this time throughout the pages of this book), every house built upon a sandy foundation shall fall. This is because the very foundations upon which the people of the world have built, are shaken by the truth so powerful, that it creates “so mighty an earthquake, and so great.” (page 374)
Just understanding that these few things were written figuratively, and are in no way intended to be interpreted as literal, is the first step to becoming free....
I like free things. :0)
Here is where to have a look at the book. (It's also free.)
