Brother Jeff;
Revelation 11:8, figuratively identifies France as “the great city,” and calls it “spiritually” “Sodom and Egypt.” And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. How could the Lord have been crucified in France? Do you mean that the spiritual implication is that by France’s behavior, they crucified Him again? Or could this passage be referring to the “great city” Jerusalem? Brother B.
Response
Brother B,
The story of Revelation eleven is at least in part, the story of the Bible, as represented in the chapter as the “two witnesses”. The Bible is the word of God and Christ is the word of God. The experience of Christ, while here on earth was perfectly paralleled by the prophetic experience of the Bible in the French Revolution time-period. At the Baptism Christ was empowered to give His witness for three and a half years. At the end of that time he was crucified, then resurrected, then ascended. If you follow the attack against the Bible in Revelation eleven, you find that the two witnesses gave their testimony for three and a half years, then were killed, then resurrected and then ascended to heaven. There is much more of this pattern than simply what I have stated here. We deal with this pattern in detail on the thirty-eight hour prophecy school. Jeff.
