Nick…….my view of the bottomless pit is God removing EVIL from Man and animals consciousness which leaves only GOOD awareness. And as a result only good influences are left.

Who knows the ture meaning of the word…[Read more]

Nick………not removing anything from it , just trying to understand the symbolism used in it , because it say it was symbolized and therefore to understand it we must understand the symbols used.

Nick………That your mouth talking, i do except Rev 20, it's your understanding of it i reject. Remember it says that Revelation was signified and given to us.
