There is something in the biblical tale of the anti-christ prophecy I think that describes how everyone on earth will “see” something within an hour. This was plainly impossible at the time, but it isn’t impossible NOW(TV, internet).
Sylvia Brown told a woman asking if she would ever see her kidnapped daughter again, that she would see her again in heaven. The woman clearly took this to mean her daughter was dead, but the daughter turned up alive after her mom had died. So indeed they never met again in life. I’ll give Brown that one.
The closest I can find to the OP’s contention is 1 John 2:18-27, however that is to a specific audience all in one place, who already knows God. Last hour is used, but does not seem to be a term of a clock hour.
I really don’t see that here either, and Revelation is what is happening in the spiritual world/heavenly realms (things normally not seen, the writer is privileged to see hence the title of this book, it is a revealing of what is going on beyond what we can see.), it does have a physical counterpart, easily seen with the 4 horses of the apocalypse, we don’t expect to actually see those 4 horses as physical animals, but we expect to experience the effects.
I do not take that a a physical happening, but a spiritual, yes it will happen but not on a physical time time is how I see that. But yes you can make the case as a one time event, however that does include those who have already died as those who pierced him have died.
I have to assume you are talking about the prediction that Sylvia Brown made to Amanda Berry’s mother on the Montel Williams show.
If you gave Sylvia Brown that one, you are the only one. No one gave Sylvia Brown that one. Not even Sylvia Brown gave Sylvia Brown that one. I guess you left out the part where she told Lowanda Brown “She’s not alive, honey”. Straight up, no hedging “She’s not alive”. Yes, she did say the stuff about seeing her in heaven, as a way to soften “She’s not alive”.
Sylvia Brown’s own freaking statement, the best she could come up with, was "Only God is right all the time "
Isn’t there a passage in Revelations that speaks of fire coming down from the heavens to destroy society? It’s occurred to me before that if St. John (or any other ancient person) saw a vision of a nuclear war, this could well be how he’d describe it.
For lo! There was offered to them a Bundle, and the Bundle was of Three Parts, but those who accepted the Bundle were locked in for four and twenty months and could not free themselves of the Bundle despite the rates becoming onerous.
The (now deceased) founder of TBN believed that getting everyone to be able to watch him preach Jesus on TV might be what Jesus meant about the gospel needing to be preached to every creature, and hoped that th last thing he’d say before the Rapture on TV was his show’s tagline “Let everything that hath breath Praise The LORD.”
Well, nukes came first in 1945, then Israel in 1948, but yeah, the timing of that, and then the telecommunications revolution & globalization of everything over the past 70 years does make me wonder how close we are to the End Times. I was majorly expecting the Rapture from 1975 to 1982, then I found there were lots of other ways to interpret the prophecies that made just as much sense. I now think God has a lot more stuff for us to do before He calls it a wrap, BUT I could be wrong.
