There are many lies about him. The big one is he didn’t fiddle while Rome burned.

The “christian interpretation” is nonsense. The ancients wrote with multiple layers of meanings. Spiritual truths were buried in symbolic language that hid deep metaphysical meanings.

If you wanted to dig them out you had to develop “the light”. This would give you depth and train the mind to look deeper. After all the truth is “within you”. The 7 churches of Asia represent the 7 mansions in Assiah. The translators did not know what Assiah meant so they translated it as Asia. The 7 churches were a Christian version of that. The 7 mansions of Assiah as they were known in Jewish Kabbalism were known by eastern religions as the 7 chakras. These are energy vortexes in the body which are the bridge between this world and the unseen. The whore of Babylon is the unsublimated sex energy. When sublimated is the basis of spiritual enlightenment.

The virgin giving birth as a demonstration of what must become of the whore” is a sublimated version of that sexual energy. If you will read the virgin giving birth in the wilderness with the birth of Horus by Isis you will see the Graeco Egyptian antecedents of revelation. The second coming or the coming of the Messiah is the opening of Consciousness with super consciousness.

Here is an interesting thought to ponder...
There is another city, capital of the roman empire, that was built atop 7 mountains.
That city is constantinople.

You are sadly mistaken. Good luck with your cult though.

“Gobbledygook and balderdash”

Take the time to study ancient religion and look at the paralells in them to Christian writings and you will see who is Gobbledygook and balderdash.

Revelation 1:10. I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet..

John did not pen he was at an Easter Sunday mass... The Lord’s day is a time signature, and lasts a thousand years.. the return of Christ is day one of His reign.

John was brought forth in the Spirit to reveal what would be and what had been. Nero was a tin horn in comparison to what and who is coming... the beast is likened to a whole new world and it’s intertwined religious government system.. Like the Babylonian kingdom, then Persians, then Greek/Roman then the ‘iron’/clay mix.. Iron and clay do not mix.. and will last for a short season...

Did Nero Caesar have the technological capability to require that every living person take a mark on the right hand or forehead in order to buy or sell? Or be killed for refusing to take that mark?

“Awww, ain’t no beast comin’...he been here an’ left!”- Marco D’Beast

What was the mark the historical Beast forced upon those who wished to buy and sell in the first century?

Not particularly new.. In Genesis the serpent was called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil... and he subtlety whispered sweet nothings into Eve’s ear..
