A Law –
A plenty. The spirit verses the letter of the law. Can it be known? They all hang on the greatest law. It is known. Can you love the unknown? Is it over-thinking? Get over it and start thinking. Because you can and should.

A Revelation –
A purpose was to prepare the way for the first coming. John the Baptist was to introduce the Lamb of God to the world. The word “lamb” can be found 27 times in the Apocalypse. “Jesus” only 12 times. The word “Jesus” could have been added later by John the Apostle who knows John the Baptist knows the Lamb of God.

A Historian Named Sebeos –
A first to name Islam as the fourth beast of Daniel. Most still think it is Rome even though it doesn’t fit. What does fit? Rome with seven dynasties starting the Byzantine Empire that would last a thousand years ending with the tenth dynasty of Islam. It was the second dynasty of Islam that attacked Constantinople in 666.

A Thinker –
A listener not. Sometimes we think too much is what my dad said to me often. He also said don’t forget to listen. I say don’t forget to think.

A Him Or An It –
A translation problem. Can you find the beast if you are looking for a “him” instead of an “it”? In Revelation 13:1: 20 have “his horns”, 20 have “its horns”, 15 have “It had ten horns” . We need Daniel 7:7 to clear this up. “It had ten horns” is a clear winner. You need to look for an “it” and not a “him” to find the beast. It makes a difference.

A KJV with 296 –
A book of Daniel with four great ones. What is so great about them? Jesus gives us a clue with the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place. What is in the holy place now? The Dome of the Rock is preventing the third Temple. Does that make Islam the fourth beast of Daniel? Babylon destroyed the first one. Rome destroyed the second. Greece desecrated the second. The only time Jesus got mad was with the money changers at the Temple. I wonder if he feels the same about His Church.

A Phone Call Saturday Morning –
A way to keep in touch. Most of the time we talked about sports, a safe topic. Family is more important but today politics is almost impossible to ignore. A sad state of affairs.

A Prince –
A general or other? Good luck if you are looking for the king of the north. The translators can’t agree on Daniel 11:5. 24 think he was a prince and 28 think he was anything but a prince. princes 24, commanders 11, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, subordinates 1 – Go figure. Who can you trust? What can you trust? Numbers and history.

A Great City Fell To The Tenth Dynasty of Islam –
A fourth beast of Daniel and the Second beast of the Apocalypse had ten horns. What makes a beast a beast? It could be the Temple. Babylon destroyed the first Temple. Rome destroyed the second. Greece desecrated the second. What is preventing the third? The Dome of the Rock. That would make Islam the fourth beast. It fits. Constantinople fell to the tenth dynasty of Islam. All named by Islam.

a bottomless pit
A Beast –
A thousand years. The bottomless pit can be found seven times in chapters 9, 11, 17, and 20. The ten horns connects it to the fourth beast of Daniel. The third beast of Daniel with seven heads is chained in chapter 20 and the beast with ten horns is released in chapter 9. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
