I have never heard Calvinists say that the Catholic Church was created by Pharisees in the Fourth Century.
The most important point in understanding Revelation lies in understanding that the book is mostly to be read literally
Your interpretation is not literal, or else the "little horn" would really be interpreted as being an actual little horn.
The written word needs a true interpreter. I am reminded, someone of the Star Treck episode where the primitives Kirk encounters have a sacred writing and he understands nothing.Until he looks at the document and sounds it out differently, discovering it to be in fact something familar to every American.
I see your game now; I’ll waste no more time replying to the inflatable bouncing clown.
