a historical event 

A Prophecy Fulfilled – 

A number to verify a fit.  Your interpretation cannot be trusted.  Only history can verify the fulfillment of prophecy.  Only numbers along with history can verify your interpretation of prophecy.  Only prophets can predict the future.  If you need the future for your interpretation of prophecy, think again.  You are ignoring history and numbers.

A Meditation – 

A time to reflect. Life is good. Promote life. Protect life. Grin and bear it. Smile to let others know it is alright even though it is not alright. We can’t ignore the problem. If we can’t identify the problem, we can’t fix it. It’s the lie. They are lying to us but the real problem is our silence. If you see something, say something. Say it now.

A Recapitulation – 

commentary on the Apocalypse by Victorinus who introduced the theory of recapitulation.  Without it misinterpretation is likely.  The visions of John cannot be understood to be in chronological order.  Each vision should be considered independent of the others.  Some are a repetition of others.  Recapitulation is a necessary tool in understanding the Apocalypse.
