A Fulbright Scholar –
A proof for the existence of God being discussed in a bar. She never heard it. She was talking to a priest who I was hoping could find me a place to live temporarily. The priest was sure she could. I offered to buy her lunch to talk about it. A Catholic Fulbright Scholar who didn’t know how to prove the existence of God. Somehow she needed to hear about it.

A Black Sea –
A pair of balances in his hand. Communism from the Black Sea, a great threat to religion, was started by Marx, the rider of the black horse. Marxism is still a major threat to freedom. It has found its way inside the Church. Call it climate change. Call it racism. It is a lie. It must be repeated. It must block the truth. Call that censorism.

A Reason to Explain –
A need to understand what is written. From Augustine:
“What then, Brothers, shall we keep silence?
Why then read it if only to keep silence about it?
Or
why hear it if it is not to be explained?
But also,
why explain it if it is not to be understood?”

A Bible –
A Book of books. Read the beginning and the end but not the middle. Still working on it. A book of stories. Stories to wrestle with.

A Red Sea –
A great sword and power to take peace from the earth. Mohammed, the antichrist and the father of the second beast from the Red Sea is the rider of the red horse. History records the wars against the saints. The ten horns are the ten Islamic dynasties. The ten horns also connect Daniel.

A Reason to Believe –
A blessing for “he that hath an ear”. A promise for he that overcometh. Not being hurt by the second death must be the most important. There is little agreement as to what the second death means. The death of the soul should be the primary consideration. Fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

A Heigh Ho –
A great moment in cinematic history. It’s off to work we go. Weary and tired. We go because we must. Work now and feast later. Somehow we lost this. Borrow now and pay later. Don’t worry about the debt. It’s time to have fun.

A White Horse –
A bow in the hand of the rider. A covenant with God not unlike the bow in Genesis 9:13. Constantine was from the Aegean or Mediterranean aka the white sea by the Turks and he made the world safe for Christians. The color of the sea and the color of the horse is telling, especially with the Red Sea and the Black Sea.

A Fulfillment of Prophecy –
A connection with numbers that can be trusted. Your interpretation, not so much. Translators can’t be trusted but somehow they get the numbers right. If you have an ear, listen to what numbers and history can tell you. It is the only way the fulfillment of prophecy can be confirmed. Anything else is just someone’s interpretation.

A Constantinople –
A beginning of the thousand year reign as described by Eusebius in his Church History. He makes it sound like the Second Coming. After 300 years of persecution, Constantine comes along to make the world safe for Christians.
