The Book of Revelation was not Inspired or Created By the Judeo Christian God

My debate will center around It is apocryphal based on the Pagan beliefs it draws its visions from. Proof its Aprocryphal Numerology and Astrology both practices which has a consensus origin among historians with Ancient Babylon. Divination is what the ancients called the practice of using Numerology or Astrology to foretell future events and find hidden knowledge of God. We still define divination the same today. Divination: : the art or practice that seeks to foresee or foretell future events or discover hidden knowledge usually by the interpretation of omens or by the aid of supernatural powers The bible clearly condemns divination at De 18:10 - 10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, Revelation deals most with the destruction of Babylon the great and destroying god's adversary Satan. In the same breath it uses Babylon's own belief system to predict God's return and the tools in which god will use upon his return to destroy Babylon. Revelation use of Numerology and Astrology breaks the laws written at De 18:10 and therefore the Judeo Christian God could not have written nor inspired it to be written. Revelation talks about removing god's adversary Satan but Deuteronomy tells why God would remove kingdoms because they practiced divination at De 18:12 12 Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD; because of these same detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you. Evidence of Numerology being used in Revalation abounds. Bible scholars excuse Numerology in the bible saying the numbers are symbolic and therefore do not fall under the realm of mysticism. Symbolism though still falls under the umbrella of divination. This point is proved by the Catholic encyclopedias response to Numerology in the bible. Catholic Encyclopedias take on numbers. Suffice it to note here that although the Fathers repeatedly condemned the magical use of numbers which had descended from Babylonian sources to the Pythagoreans and Gnostics of their times, and although they denounced any system of their philosophy which rested upon an exclusively numerical basis, still they almost unanimously regarded the numbers of Holy Writ as full of mystical meaning, and they considered the interpretation of these mystical meanings as an important branch of exegesis. Simply put they continued to preach it having divine origin despite knowing it was of Apocryphal origin. Although the Catholic church used the Book of revelation The Eastern Orthodox church doesn't include it in its Divine Liturgy. Protestants use it to keep the sheep in the field afraid of the big bad wolves of revelation. Numerology The number of instances Numerology is used in revelation are far to many for the 5,000 characters I have remaining so we'll just go through a few. 666 - This is undeniably, without a doubt numerology even acknowledged by the author. He states that this is a man's name 666. That is the very meaning of divination using numbers to discover a deeper knowledge. In fact the Babylonish system was design with 1 - 36 numbers for their god. 1 number for each god. Adding 1 + 2+ 3+ 4+ 5+6 to + 36 = 666 which was the number for the SUN god. 24 Elders around the Throne of God - 144,000 - 7 congregations - 7 planets of Astrology 7 lampstands Astrology. Astrology is a lot easier to prove as to a correlation. Meaning X example found in the bible matches X example found in Astrology. 4 Living Creatures = The very term living creature is a definition of a word we could translate into modern english that is readily used today, Zodiac. In fact Bull, Man, lion, Eagle. Were the 4 axis points of the ancient zodiac. 4 horseman of the apocalypse = People who follow the zodiac for compatible partners should easily identify who the 4 horseman are. Lion matches Sagitarius = Man seated on a white horse with bow (Sagatarius Bow Horse) Bull matches Virgo = Man taking peace from the world with(In old star maps the goddess represented in Virgo is depicted as Astrea, Goddess of Justice. She is depicted holding a sword in one hand, scales in the other.) Man Matches Libra = Thus able to take away the scales (Libra has the scales) Eagle(Scorpio) matches Pisces = The food shortage and pisces also represents death since it is the last month in the zodiac. God is to return to the middle of the Zodiac. Babylons belief was when the Zodiac was first created the Serpent was placed in the middle of the Zodiac with his minions. Revelation 4:6 The woman was described as having 12 stars and the sun and the moon. This is without a shadow of a doubt the goddess Virgo. Rev 12:1 The Earth comes to the pregnant woman's rescue. Which is what Ishtar does with the God Tammuz when she comes to his rescue Rev 12:15-17 (Ishtar is the babylonian name for Virgo) The Serpent which bruises Virgo in her heel in Genesis and Tortures her now (The same serpent that sits in the middle of the Zodiac that god removes) has multiple heads just like the Hydra Rev. 12:3,4. And for a bonus in the Zodiac as the snake in the middle works its way around it bites the foot of Virgo or she Bruises him in the head. I could continue but their are only so many characters remaining on the internet. All of this proves that it was not of divine origin of a Hebrew god from which Revelation was written but it was Babylon. In fact my belief is the author of Revelation was actually piecing together the apocryphal beliefs scattered through out the bible into one concentrated tell all. In a writing style that would force the knowledgeable reader to question the origin of beliefs in the bible in their entirety. That is why even other citations in the bible in which Revelation draws its words from are in themselves apocryphal. If they were not it would be as god committed Genocide against people unjustly because he used those same tools. My beliefs have some precedence in the immediate history following the publication of the book of Revelation. Many bible scholars and early church leaders assigned Cerinthus as the writer of Revelation. Many of the Pagan beliefs such as Christmas, Easter, etc can find their origins justified in Revelation. The god who killed Canaanites and establish the Jewish religion would be a hypocrite to adopt the same tools. Many protestants teach against the catholic churches teachings based on the fact they are based upon Pagan beliefs. They then turn around and use Revelation as the damnation prophecy that will be fulfilled on all people not approved by God. How can the God that wrote those words in Deuteronomy be justified in his actions if he uses the same tools as the God's of Babylon. Either god is unjust or Revelation is not inspired by God. I believe revelation is not inspired by God.
