The Third Day Radio Show for 03-03-2010-Synopsis #5: “The Language of Metaphor-Part 4” with Sue Patterson and Randy Maugans

We conclude the study of the language of metaphor with some insights into the operation of interpreting scripture from a fresh perspective…not the stale cartoon prophetic images of doom and destruction, but a concise and highly focused view of the meanings of the cryptograms and images which veil one of the most debated verses in prophecy.

The seven part series from the original “Threshing Floor” shows aired in September 2007:
This series breaks out a consistent, metaphorical survey of the dynamic of this spiritual creature and its role in the great tribulation.

Includes all the original show notes and Bible references used in the teachings in PDF format.

“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”-2 Peter 5:3-4

Part 7-“The Scoffers”The final installment of the Beast series reveals the mindset of those who have the number of the beast—and their mocking, bloody assaults upon the multitude in the tribulation —and WHY they execute their actions with impunity.
