唐朝《推背圖》和聖經《啟示錄》共同預測核戰(三)

第七聲號角倒是領向好的結局的。“The second Woe is past: behold, the third Woe cometh quickly. 11:15And the seventh angel sounded; and there followed great voices in heaven, and they said, The kingdom of the world is become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ: and he shall reign for ever and ever (11:14-15)”。這裏的三個災(Woe),是對應第五第六第七號角的。所以第三災就是第七號角。第五第六聲號角,不僅是因為核戰造成的後續效果,從推背圖裏也可以看到,那種接近lawless的無政府主義狀態,和代表殘存下來的民眾的臨時政府,和後麵重新組建的新政府,一直處在為了生存而相互戰爭的狀態。所以這第七聲號角也不例外,應該是正義之軍跟頑固守舊勢力的最後決戰。幸運的是,命運決定了最後是以正義的一方勝利告終,世界得到了統一,全新的和諧次序得到了建立。這些,跟推背圖的第五十七到五十九圖相對應。
按照聖經的理解,這次的勝利是跟救世主的第二次降臨平行的。而那些自以為信教的人,卻把救世主和跟隨他的兩個天使當成反上帝的逆教徒,跟救世主的正義之師對立和作戰。
這本書的第三部分12-22章,就開始用比喻的方式講解正邪的力量和變遷了。比喻裏有兩個女人,12章那個是好的,17章那個是壞的,但好像都不真指具體的女人,而是講正義的係統和邪惡的係統。有個Red Dragon,七頭十角,開始在天堂,後來背叛上帝,被打下人間(12)。在人間,那個紅龍把自己的力量和權力交付給一個Beast。那個野獸也是七頭十角,豹身熊足獅嘴,行上帝之名褻瀆上帝,跟紅龍的組合力量無窮,人人把那個實際上的野獸當成上帝敬畏和崇拜(worship)(13)。而那個野獸跟真正的聖徒作對,跟聖徒之國宣戰。而聖徒的態度呢?“If any man hath an ear, let him hear. If any man is for captivity, into captivity he goeth: if any man shall kill with the sword, with the sword must he be killed. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints”(13:9-10)讓壞人充分表現,逆來順受。還有一個野獸,兩個角象是羊,說起話來又象龍,它在人間行使前麵那野獸賦予的權力,掌握著天火降臨的大權,讓世人把前麵的那個野獸當上帝膜拜,要造出神像,不相信的都該死(13)。有個代表上帝的假預言者,不知道是不是就是這第二個野獸。
而上帝的羔羊站在Zion山頂,有144,000純潔的勇士相伴(14)。那144,000
上帝的勇士,“These are they that come of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb(7:14)”。
然後又重複七個天使的懲罰,這次是采用七碗plagues倒入人間的比喻(15,16),又是一番閃電,火燒,地震,山河變遷的核爆景象。然後一個天使宣告了巴比倫新帝國的崩潰。“And he cried with a mighty voice, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and is become a habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hateful bird(18:2)”特別指出了隨著她被火燒而伴隨的財富的消亡。
然後是羔羊的婚禮(19),我想這預示了正義之師的聯合,跟推背圖第五十八相合。然後是紅龍,野獸,和假預言者的被囚千年(20),我想這預示了假上帝信仰的滅亡和新羅馬帝國的最後崩潰。應該是通過艱苦一戰的。
最後天國在地球降臨的時候,世界一統,果樹月月結果,而人能直接跟上帝交流。“And he showed me a river of water of life, bright as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the midst of the street thereof. And on this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve manner of fruits, yielding its fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no curse any more: and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be therein: and his servants shall serve him; and they shall see his face; and his name shall be on their foreheads. And there shall be night no more; and they need no light of lamp, neither light of sun; for the Lord God shall give them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.(22:1-5)”。聽起來物種跟能源都是全新的形式了,是不是到那時候人真正理解了天國的意義?理解了能量的負意義?理解了精神的力量?人的交流方式是否也有變化?
如果一切都是新的形式,那,其實現代的人的世紀等於是滅亡了,終結了。
這部聖經肯定了核戰,混亂,大統一的三部曲。其它的,看起來是宗教的真假之爭,不知道正義的精神是否真的有其現實的力量意義。能夠從中吸取的,也許是:以上帝名的,並不一定是真信上帝;而不借上帝名的,也許是真的上帝的臣民。
