See how you hypocritically answered that?

A hypocritical answer is an answer that you allow for yourself but not someone else who uses the same manner you use.

We both KNOW the LAMB is symbolic. And when I say you twits the bible to say the LAMB is not a LAMB, you claim the lamb represented Jesus, and insist you did not change the term LAMB to MAN.

Open your eyes, bro. That is what we claim about the tree. THE TREE represented the believers as Jesus is the vine and we are the branches. We never CHANGED the words from tree to people any more than you changed LAMB to MAN. So, stop acting the hypocrite by saying we chnage terms when we do the same thing with tree as you did with lamb.

Actually, I really dont know for sure what it means(as I said before concerning tough stuff)...I just suggest stuff to start a conversation on tough verses.
Some things may never be known in the book of Revelation until the Lord raptures us out of here.

Oh please. lol. You do not know what it is? But it SAYS LAMB! Just like Rev 22 says TREE, Rev 5 says LAMB. You are not consistent.

You will never find a book of answering Gods' riddles being written by me!

No, you will only write inconsistent thoughts and guesswork and telling people they're going to hell because they believe a vision uses a symbol, while you attend no church for months and months, and deny resurrection raises bodies incorruptible.

You do not see how saying literal leaves bring immortality shows your belief to be wrong in that interpretation because the rest of the bible, OUTSIDE A VISION, says resurrection makes us immortal. It does not take us to a tree to be immortal, IT MAKES US IMMORTAL itself.

Why do you think Jesus said by their FRUITS ye shall know them?

You said you're confused because the city and the tree speak of us in my words, but yet Psalm 1 speaks of us as trees, and Matt 5 speaks of us as a city. Does the bible confuse you?

Your doctrine is haywire because it conflicts with other scriptures. And you avoid these questions and just become nonsensical in response. Typical.
