Psalm 2 addresses the themes of 'God's Annointed' and, of His universal dominion. The theme you 'wish' for me to acknowledge is more that of the 'singer/psalmist', not that of the Lord Himself.
As to Revelation David, I'm not a literalist when it comes to this book. I believe it to have masked the author's references to the (his) present (1st century). IMO he was speaking of the Roman empire. In neither case do I draw the interpretive conclusions that you do. But, I do know what you intend for me to understand. This is a drum beat I've heard for most of my life. thanks, Lance ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: May 27, 2005 14:16 Subject: [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: [TruthTalk] A possible 'kingdom' response to 911?????? > David Miller wrote: > >> When Jesus comes to establish his kingdom physically by > >> subduing the nations of the earth, he will do so with a rod > >> of iron.
