The book of Revelation is the structure of the Mass

1:10 Sunday worship
1:13 a High Priest
8:3-4; 11:1; 14:18 An Altar
4:4; 11:15; 14:3; 19:4 Priests (presbyteroi)
1:13; 4:4; 6:11;19:13 Vestments
4:8 The Holy, Holy, Holy
7:3; 14:1;22:4 The sign of the Cross
2:17 The Eucharistic Host
5:6 The Lamb of God
2-3;5;8:2-11 Readings from Scripture

You can also identify the Mass in the very structure of the book of Revelation:
First the seven letters calling for repentence (the Mass’s Penitential Rite, in which we repent of our sins)

Second a book with seven seals — the Liturgy of the Word, where the scriptures are opened and read

Finally the marriage supper of the Lamb - the Eucharist

The book of revelation shows us that the coming of the Lord is inseparable from the Liturgy. It is in Eucharistic celebration that the Lord truly comes to the church.

As I said, anything you post is and has been called into question. You’ve proven to be loose with the facts.

This is my last comment on this thread.
