Just off the top of my head there are a lot of places that 7 hills 7 mountains 7 kings would describe. For instance didn't the world trade center sit on 7 buildings sorta speak and didn't it have it's own zip code which could have made it a city in itself.
As I watched the news reports after 911 I can remember thinking this is it this is the end. There were reports of people having to get marks on their hands and or foreheads in order to do business in Afganastan. Christians were being slaughtered. There was a lot to coinsided with revelations at that point. Including earth quakes and don't forget about that epedimic scare from amtrax. To me it seemed more like a play being played out. Then I remember something about the year 2000 being it with the computer crash.
We need to trust in the Lord more and lean not unto our own understanding. Jesus time is near but only the Father knows the day the hour and the minute.
