of course you realize.. that much of the new testament was written AFTER the book of Revelation right?

Please direct me to any concordance or commentary that states that Revelation was written before much of the NT, thanks.

Read your history... Revelation was written during Nero's persecution which ended on or about AD 68... via internal evidence and reference to such persecution in chapters two and three... now go and look up the dates on John's own writings AFTER revelation.. and some of the other epistles.

Late dating Revelation, when it clearly addressed the ongoing persecution that historical records indicate ended in ad 68, to 100-105 as some do to make the "warning" applicable to any other writings reeks of smoke and mirrors efforts to canonize what MEN wanted to include or exclude as scripture.

King James interpreters did that. In the interim of 400 plus years of research, many if not most fundamentalist biblical scholars admit that Revelation may NOT have been the last book written in the New Testament... and you could have looked that up yourself. Believe what you want... I don't give a rat's patoot about it. Hinn is the topic here.

Hinn is a deceiver. He is not an accurate prophet. Revelation's warning notwithstanding... it changes nothing. If a prophet says he heard from God and it does not follow on in fact... that person has NOT heard from God... no matter HOW big his comb over is.... somebody hep me....

I think I remember my NT teacher Rev. was written somewhere between 90 to 100 CE which makes it pretty close to the last of the books written in the NT. Of course this depends who you talk to many Liberal theologans like to place doubt on any NT scripture being written in the lifetime of the first Apostles. I hope soon to write a book which casts a lot of weight to beleiving that Mark's Gospel was written from Peter's recalling of many of the stories of Jesus' life to the young disciple Mark. This would place Mark's Gospel being written aound 45 to 55 CE.

God Bless

BTW I knoe my English is shocking - I promise the book will be edited by a Journo freind of mine
