OK... Bible lesson here.
In Revelation, "The Lion and The Lamb" are the
same but the thing is it was expected, as it was the first time Jesus appeared,
that this Messiah would be a Lion. He was, except this Lion was ALSO, The Lamb.
To make Jesus The Lamb and “The Violent Lion” missed the
entire point of Revelation. The Unveiling of Jesus is about The Lamb being King
of Kings. To use this verse to justify Jesus being violent is actually the
opposite it teaches.
Read it but look closely at verses 5, 6, 7, 8:
Revelation 5:
Read it but look closely at verses 5, 6, 7, 8:
Revelation 5:
1. And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on
the throne a scroll written inside and on the back, sealed with seven seals. 2. Then I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a
loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose its seals?''
3. And no one in heaven or on the earth or under
the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look at it.
4. So I wept much, because no one was found
worthy to open and read the scroll, or to look at it.
5. But one of the elders said to me, "Do
not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has
prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals.''
6. And I looked, and behold, in the midst of the
throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood
a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which
are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7. Then He came and took the scroll out of the
right hand of Him who sat on the throne.
8. Now
when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four
elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of
incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9. And they sang a new song, saying: "You
are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and
have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people
and nation, 10. and have made us kings
and priests to our God; and we shall reign on the earth.''
11. Then I looked,
and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures,
and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and
thousands of thousands, 12. saying with
a loud voice: "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and
riches and wisdom, and strength and honor and glory and blessing!'' 13. And every creature which is in heaven and on
the earth and under the earth and such as are in the sea, and all that are in
them, I heard saying: "Blessing and honor and glory and power be to Him
who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever!''
14. Then the four living creatures said,
"Amen!'' And the twenty-four elders fell down and worshiped Him who lives
forever and ever.
Notice the Lamb is Worthy to sit on the Throne AFTER He was called the Lion of
Judah? And later, how did Jesus overcome the devil and evil? Read on… for this
is THE KEY that unlocks and reveals Jesus for Who He Is..
Revelation 12:10. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
Revelation 12:10. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
11.
"And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of
their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
We overcame not by power of might but by the Blood of the Lamb and our word of testimony… ummm. Nope, you see no guns or violence in this verse. Again, twisting this verse is the OPPOSITE the Book is revealing. To make it a book that justifies war and violence is antichrist.
In fact, the prophetic word of Isaiah is very clear on the topic of Jesus being violent or not. Isaiah states that the REAL Messiah would be non-violent. Read it:
Isaiah 53: 9. And they made His grave with the wicked but with the rich at His death, because He had done no violence, nor was any deceit in His mouth.
Conclusion:
If you believe in Violent Jesus, you are worshipping a false Jesus. You are not following or believe in the Real Jesus who was non-violent.
Before you respond (as opposed to attack), take time to study this out and see I am not pushing a false narrative. Deal with the verses and your OWN theological breakdown of the verses and see your view is simply wrong.
