Very little of Revelations is literal. It’s largely a poetic book, with deeper meanings behind each statement. A thousand years in Revelations only represents a long time period, it isn’t a literal thousand years.
.
Only to a trivial reader is Revelation anything but literal.
The meanings are clear, and way too deep for the unbeliever for sure. Confronting the soon end to the ways and governments of Satan’s men is untenable for those whose thoughts and understanding are based in men.
The Revelation is a clearly laid out map of the final 2000 years of Satan’s rule of the Earth.
You’ll only understand it if you quit running away from it.
Nothing God has told us therein is in any vague, so there is no point in seeking comfort in that falsehood. It wasn’t meant to be a comforting story; it is reality closing in on those that reject God’s ways.
