Funny how some will miss Rev 9, even after 35 yrs of study. Ever read about a fellow named Abaddon? (also referenced over 5 times in the OT. Rev is in the NT BTW.)
I've not missed Rev. 9:11, nor have I ignored the OT. And yes, I know about the Destroyer and the "destruction" of the truth it seeks to destroy. BTW, how about listing the verses from the OT that mentions Abaddon or Apollyon?
4) The Abyss, location of criminal fallen angels, from which some will be released at the middle of the Great Tribulation.
Yes, I know what the Bible says of the 'abyss', but where do you find that "some (of the occupants) will be released at the middle of the Great Tribulation? After all the years of my studies I have never found that - so, I say that "No. 4 is simply an opinion of man, and never found in the Bible." Am I wrong in saying that? If so, WHY?
