Well, in fact, I'm a little depressed.
I'm translating the peshitta and I publish the translation, and I don't expect any 'glory' for it, for I just try to do away with all cult teachings that I've coped with from youth and further, at age zero...
I've been raised with the idea of 'the end is near' (Luke 21:8). (Do not follow them)
Now I am working on Revelation, I'm seeing and understand things, I cannot avoid it, that are going to happen soon and I don't like it at all. Why has God's name to be holyfied through surviving or starving to death through a greatest genocide ever, by the anti-christ?
Sure, I'm comforted by the idea that I go to heaven(not!)... andI don't understand why God promises something, which is not earthly (I'm a human, can this be blamed?) and I don't want to be in power and to sit on judging-'seats'. Just leave me in peace <!-- s

For me, hapiness, seems to have a family, raise children with respect for God and not to be disturbed by sellers of faith and to employ oneself eventually, live forever and healthy Revelation 21:3,4.
And if these plagues do not occurr, in my live, I can be wrong, (as it has not been for nearly 1950 years) no problem. But brother, weren't you depressed at translating Revelation?
