When reading Revelation, we have to distinguish between chronology and color commentary. We have such a difficult time with this book. But, as Jim has said before, God didn't intend to confuse and befuddle us. So what's our problem? In his Apocalypse, John is giving us the play-by-play report and the color commentary together. We're getting the sequence tangled up with the sidebar information. Once we grasp which is which, it'll be much easier to understand the message. We're back in Revelation, chapter 5, with Jim.
