Revelation: A Book Worth Studying

Revelation: A Book Worth Studying
The majority of early Christian thinkers followed Justin Martyr in ascribing the book to John the Apostle, but a minority agreed with the historian Eusebius in thinking that it was written by John the Elder. Interestingly, in 22:9 the angel ...

The author does just call himself John. He does not elaborate.
If read right, with expert guidance, the book does explain much, and can be uplifting.

Wise advice. Revelations needs expert guidance.
There are doubts about the authorship, for some think that the author was John the Elder [presbyter] not John the Evangelist.
It is important not to read any clues about the history of the ...

I assume you are referring to Fredericksburg and New Breuffels. I probably got the spelling wrong. No, there is no connection. A wave of Germans came to Louisiana in the 1800s. One branch of my family was included, a migration from Bavaria. ...

England's Nazareth: the shrine at Walsingham
Interesting.
One thing I am not clear on is that when Henry VIII seized Catholic buildings, many had cloister sections. Also, many were churches. To remove a cloister status, or to decommission a church requires the performance of ritual. ...

Piriformis - an unusual form of sciatica
If it is caused by a bulging lower spinal disc, it is easy to diagnose the cause. However, my spine is in perfect condition and there are no problems with it. For some unknown reason, the nerves in my lower spine suddenly became inflamed and ...

England's Nazareth: the shrine at Walsingham
Yes, walking back barefoot to retrieve footwear was the norm. Nothing taken from the slipper chapel was returned. It was a minor site compared with the holy house, so little or nothing of great value was kept there. Very little was recovered ...

England's Nazareth: the shrine at Walsingham
frankbeswick, Thank you for the back- and front-stories and product lines. Did pilgrims walk back barefoot to retrieve their footwear from the Slipper Chapel? Did the recovery of the Slipper Chapel inspire return of anything taken from it?

Piriformis - an unusual form of sciatica

Keep stretching.
