Thanks but I have already read and taught
the Book of the Revelation 3 times and
have yet to see ANY Catholic teachings
other than The Catholic Church may be the
whore of Babylon.

Good grief. What did you teach about Revelation 12?

I invite you to read Scott Hahn's book, The Lamb's Supper, which is his study of Revelations.

Hahn was a Presbyterian minister who was very anti-Catholic. Revelations was his main scholarly focus in graduate school. One day he went to observe a Catholic Mass, out of curiosity, because he was on the campus of a Catholic University. He was suddenly struck that everything he was seeing in the Mass followed exactly the pattern of the Book of Revelations. This insight eventually led him to convert to Catholicism. His book, The Lamb's Supper, is his scholarly work on the Mass as understood through the Book of Revelations.

I take it you are a premillennialist. I used to be one too. Like Hahn and folks such as David Currie, author of Born Fundamentalist, Born Again Catholic, we each independently came to the realization that premillennialism is not scriptural and, in fact, a very idiosyncratic eschatology that is mostly confined to 20th century United States. It's a castle built on sand.

However, that is a different subject that would require a new thread. I might put that together, and will ping you when and if I have a chance to post it. If you are interested, I'd be glad to discuss it with you, as long as we can all play nice.

God bless.
