A Thinker –
A “nude male figure of heroic size, seated on a large rock, leaning forward, his right elbow placed upon his left thigh, with the back of his right hand supporting his chin in a posture evocative of deep thought and contemplation.”

A Translation Issue –
A beast. Your bible could have as many as 296 beasts or as few as 87. There are 20 translations that consider the beast in Revelation 13:1 a ‘he’ and 37 translations call it an ‘it’. This is a significant difference. Daniel 7:7 can help us here. The fourth beast is an it in all 52 translations. It has ten horns just like the beast in Revelation.

A Friend For Christianity –
A bow, a covenant between God and man. Constantine from the Aegean or Mediterranean Sea aka the white sea. He started a Christian empire where they would reign with Christ a thousand years. The Byzantine Empire is the place to start fitting history with prophecy with a thousand years. A literal thousand years.

A Wish Existed In Mine –
A chicken curry with Jeera rice from Taste of India. My wife and I fight over the rice so we have to order extra. Lucky for me Taste of India is not too far away.

A Big Problem –
A word can be misleading if you are looking for the king of the north. There are eight different words in 52 different translations: princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1. These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them.

A Threat to Christianity –
A great sword to take peace from the earth. Mohammed from the Red Sea is the rider and the founder of the beast of Islam. Christianity is not the only religion threatened by this beast. The history of Islam clearly demonstrates this. Islam is not the only threat to Christians. See a black horse.

A Stay In Our Cities –
A country visit is much better than a city visit. Our cities have been corrupted by people who depend on a government check. Elections in our cities can no longer be trusted.

A Fit With Daniel –
A king of the south, Mohammed, and his daughter, Fatimah, along with one of his commanders, Muawiyah, who will become even stronger is a good fit with Daniel. Some of the bibles use the word princes (25) instead of the more believable words like commanders (11) as we shall see in a following post.

A Threat to Christianity –
A balanced approach to society sounds good at first but somehow it makes religion the enemy. It is the opium of the people but “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need” is what Jesus would expect and that would require a pair of balances, but why is religion the enemy?

A Yellow Rose Of Texas –
A book of songs my grandmother gave me when I was very young had this song as well as Oh Susanna. I sang a lot as a child and it gave me the words of so many great songs. Yellow Rose of Texas has always been my favorite.
