I really like KSA's comment that all the negative warnings are applicable to us today. I have never heard a sermon on "Blessed is he who reads this prophecy." That's too simple. I believe most on this forum have had the experience of just plain reading the Bible and realizing that you heard God speak. Nothing "spooky" nothing sensational. I did get one thing from WL and that was a lot of the Lord's speaking is "No", you are wrong. WL didn't preach too much on that thru the years and I never heard his admitting much "wrong." He was so meek, humble, perfect, especially if you only knew him from 50 feet away.

The first conference I went to was in Atlanta, Jan 1, 1973 and it was heavily spoken by John Ingals and I was bolled over. I had never heard the book of Rev spoken of like that. Wow! This must be the "truth." We are Philidelphia, we are it, look at us, come meet with us, we are the only ones speaking the truth. But after many years, I was wrong! So sad. But one little incouraging thing, I still occasionally get the speaking of the Lord from just reading the Bible without some guru telling me what it actually means.

This Revelation thing is almost like watching Disney phantasy and how I was taken in by WL. 1Cor 15:45 says the Last Adam became a life giving spirit and before that on the day His ressurrection Jesus told His disciples I am not a spirit. Did they contradict each other? I don't know and sorry to say I don't care. Both Paul and Lee are dead and yet the Bible stands. The word of God is living. I sort of like that.
