Conspiracies about the statue. It's actually a statue of the goddess Ishtar who was partly worshiped as a goddess of war. And there has been serious debate on whether the statue is a man or woman. Also the creator of the statue went to many other countries first to sell it. Those counties didn't. He slapped some freedom meaning onto the statue and the USA bought it.
I think people sometimes take 'sword proceeding out His mouth' a little bit too literally concerning Jesus' description when He returns.
Not a literal sword but His Voice that is the Word of God that cuts through anything.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
John 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
