We don't need to limit ourselves to Revelation 1 to find a soon or a shortly. Here's the NIV version of Chapter 22. What are these words supposed to mean, DOC, if not what they clearly say?
Quote:
6 The angel said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true. The Lord, the God who inspires the prophets, sent his angel to show his servants the things that must soon take place.” 7 “Look, I am coming soon! Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy written in this scroll.” ... 12 “Look, I am coming soon! ... "
And when you've explained that, please tell us how a prophecy of stars falling out of the sky can be reconciled with current knowledge of the sizes and distances of the stars.
