A Dance –
A polka. The beer barrel polka. Drink the beer and dance the polka. Polish weddings are the best. The twist was fun.

a desolation
A Temple –
A beast in the making. What makes a beast a beast? Daniel knows beasts and the abomination of desolation mentioned by Jesus. Babylon destroyed the first temple. Greece desecrated the second and Rome destroyed it. Islam and the Dome of the Rock is preventing the third. The four beasts of Daniel.

A History of the Church –
A dog that didn’t bark. Eusebius never associates the churches with the Apocalypse. He does mention six of the seven churches but does not connect them with the Apocalypse. Since Victorinus has the same problem, it suggests that there may have been a version of the Apocalypse that didn’t have the seven churches.

a book of the bible
A Book Of Revelation –
A reading over and over again. The Apocalypse interpreted using numbers and history. Only history can confirm prophecy. Only numbers can verify it. Your interpretation can’t be trusted.

A Fulfillment of Prophecy –
A victory over the beast. Constantinople used Greek fire on the Sea of Marmara, like a sheet of glass, and the year was 666. The problem with dates was noted by Gibbon. His 46 years gets you 668 but put it in an Islamic calendar converter, a calculation, and you will get exactly 666. An amazing fit with Revelation 15:2.

a witness
A Commentary on the Apocalypse –
A dog that didn’t bark. Victorinus didn’t mention the churches. He does mention the seven churches that Paul wrote to. So why not mention the seven churches that John wrote to? It is possible that his version of the Apocalypse didn’t have the seven churches. We need to look at Eusebius to see if he has the same problem.

A movie, “The Razor’s Edge”. Larry Darrell is the character that I can relate to. A seeker of meaning.

If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?
a calculation
A Number –
A count in some bibles. Another example where the translators can’t agree on the Word of God but they are in complete agreement with numbers. Only numbers can be trusted to tie what has been prophesied to historical events that confirm the fulfillment of those prophecies. You can count on them.

a commentary
A History –
A witness to what no longer exists. What was Victorinus looking at when he wrote his Commentary on the Apocalypse? What was Eusebius looking at when he wrote his Church History? We can only speculate based on what they wrote, what they didn’t write, and what is reasonable. Can we make sense of it? It makes more sense than most interpretations.

A killer of rats. There will always be too many rats. Democ are the worst. There will never be too many cats.
