a first coming
A Beginning –
A new world order and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. You just need to overcometh and you shall not be hurt of the second death. This is eternal life.

a holy place
A Dome of the Rock –
A desolation. What is in the holy place now? The Dome of the Rock is preventing the third temple and that makes Islam a beast different from all the others. The “ten horns” are the ten dynasties of Islam. Counted by Islamic sources. The Ottoman Empire, the tenth dynasty, ended the thousand year Christian empire, The Byzantine Empire, in 1453.

a thing I’m good at
A List Of Five –
A thinker. Four more? Short posts. Is that long enough? Routine. Driving. One more? Short lists.

a bible
A Vulgate –
A canon that included the Apocalypse. Before Chrysostom, Jerome, and Augustine, it was not clear if the Apocalypse belonged in the bible. At the beginning of the fifth century these three were major players in the Church and the bible was being defined. It is clear now. Thank you Jerome.

Abd Allah ibn Mas’ada al-Fazari, a raiser of taxes
Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan, placed the abomination that maketh desolate
What is in the holy place now?

a one thing to change about myself
A Better Listener –
A suggestion from my father. Don’t forget to listen. He knew me well. I spent too much time thinking about what I was going to say. It is time to listen.

A Sign In The Sky –
A suggestion that John Chrysostom wrote the Apocalypse 30 September 395. Made by Nikolai Alexandrovich Morozov, an astronomer, according to R. H. Charles in his book, “Studies in the Apocalypse: Being Lectures Delivered before the University of London”. A book worth reading.

a fit with history
A Fit With Numbers –
A thousand year empire starting with the seven dynasties of the Roman Empire and ending with the tenth dynasty of Islam. The first beast, Rome, whose deadly wound was healed was replaced by the second beast Islam. The Byzantine Empire fits with all the numbers you can trust. You can’t trust interpretation of prophecy.
