I am assuming you're referring to John the evangelist. Keep in mind that the his book was written after the destruction of Jerusalem, in A.D. 70 and before John's exile to the island of Patmos. This was 70's after Christ has resurrected! How do you know what he wrote was completely accurate? You're putting a lot of trust into a person who, just like everyone else, was human. It's sad how you can credit all of the earth's splendor to a creator, it severely limits your appreciation of the natural world.
1, No, I refer John the book, which was written by John the Baptist by my study, who may be possible the same person as John the evangelist.
2, I know the record in the book by my spiritual experience in my meditation, and the meaning behind the surface of the words.
3, Remember, I tell you human is only partially equal. As John the Baptist, he is from God according John the gospel, as John 1, "6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light."
4, It is sad that you only see the earth's splendor and do not see its tragedy.
5, My appreciation of the natural world is much widened by god the Word.
