Your view of the book of Revelation and the future of earth will change when you begin taking this book literally, allowing for figures of speech. The locusts of Revelation, chapter 9, are literal. This is a scourge the likes of which our earth has never seen. Please, let us awaken to the truths of Paul's gospel of grace, which is our salvation from the coming Indignation (1 Thessalonians 1:10).
