Revelation 12:5 The Mark Of A King
The prophetic words of Revelation are all spiritual, and to try and understand it physically, will lead to false hope and a real disappointment. The mark of the beast is a spiritual mark and sign, the antichrist is a spiritual leader, an evil spirit, but he or she will not be a political person. Not only is Revelation a spiritual prophetic message, but most of scripture is also spiritual as well. The Son who is is born in Revelation 12:5 is none other than the promise Messiah Son of God, who most of Old Testament who will be King and rule all nations. Before Jesus was born, many Jewish people had a strong faith in a false prophecy, and it was so strong they reject the Messiah, even after He fulfilled all the prophesy predicted about His birth, life, death, and resurrection. Israel was always meant to be spiritual and the physical land of Israel was and is never going to be permanent. After Adam and Eve sinned, God knew He would have to destroy this whole world, which means the ph, physical land of Isreal, for whole new earth that has no evidence of sin. The physical-mind people of Israel, made the land they live on, the central of their universe and they made the Lord God, only their God, and Maker. The Jews totally trusted 100% the Messiah was going to from King David, but they didn’t think of the King of Kings would be born in a manger, cause to their mindset, the Messiah should be been born a royal palace. The physical Jews, were comfortable in the world of sin they live in, but hated oppression from the Roman empire, and had already been in power a long time before Jesus’ birth. So they trust a false prophecy, the coming Messiah would destroy Rome, take His place in the temple built at the time, and make Israel the greatest kingdom on earth and Jesus would allow life to continue as it had. The hope was so strong in the false prophecy, even after seeing Jesus die and rise from the dead and walk around in His physical body, they ask Him before He was about to ascend into heaven, why are you leaving, Israel hasn’t restored yet, but Jesus had to tell them, all the world needs Jesus, the King of Kings.
Many people are still listening and believing false prophesy like surely the Lord will save the Jewish people cause they are His chosen people. If they read God’s word mostly the book of Acts and letters of Paul many Jewish accepted Jesus as the Messiah, so does the Holy word of God, answer the, is a true Jew, or even a true Christian, is the Lord only God and king of one group of people?
After final judgment, the Lord Jesus will become King of glory, not just of the Jews or Israel, but King of all Creation and the universe is He your King now and will be King for all eternity? Don’t trust false prophecy, if the holy word of God doesn’t say it clear enough then it must be a falsehood. God bless you all, Jesus the King of Kings loves you and so do I, Samuel H.
