    Here is a new book, just out, on Revelation 1-3: Where Is Your Allegiance?. The Kindle edition is out on Amazon now, but not the printed book: Amazon.com: where is your allegiance paul himes: Books.

    For you guys that insist on not interpreting the book literally, this volume makes it quite plain that the first three chapters are completely literal accounts. (I read it prepub, but don't have the printed book yet.) For example, author Dr. Himes discusses the true meaning of the "lukewarm" statement as it would have been understood in AD 96 by a resident of Laodicea or the adjacent towns (3:15), and the historical events behind the "thief" statement to Sardis (3:3).

    You will be blessed.

    Wait a minute! WAIT A MINUTE! He didn't dedicate the book to his dear old dad? Must have just been an oversight. :D:D:D:D:D

    That stuff will stunt your growth! At least that's what my mom told me. It must be true. My dad was 6'3" and my brothers are 6'6, 6'5, 6'4, 6'3, 6'2, and me at 5'10.

    I really look up to my siblings. :D:D:D

    Yeah, Dad and Mom always told us that, so we weren't allowed coffee until we turned 16. My little sis ended up at about 6'2"--should have given her coffee.:Coffee
