John’s Revelation Unveiled – Part 2

First. Satan’s futile attempt to destroy the infant Jesus soon after He was born  predictably ended in utter failure. For the woman, the Older Testament’s Church, through the agency of the blessed virgin Mary as a Member of that Church,506 “brought forth a male child” alias a baby boy504 in the person of the infant Jesus.507

Not only was the then-tiny Jesus not destroyed by wicked Herod as Rome’s Puppet-King. Too, many also in Israel even then confessed His Lordship.508 And three important leaders also from the East even then acknowledged Him as their King, too.509
