A Preparation For the Great Tribulation
A suffering for those who “repented not”. John the Baptist, a voice crying in the wilderness, taught repentance. So did Jesus. Will prayer stop the great tribulation? Good luck with that. You can protect yourself if you “repent of your deeds”. Pay attention to what Jesus and John the Baptist said.
A Connection with Daniel
A fit with history. Both John and Daniel have a beast with “ten horns”. Constantinople, the capital of a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years, fell to the Ottomans, the tenth dynasty of Islam. Counted by Islamicart.com but no longer active.

A Belief In Man
A build back better. We just have to organize. Equity requires a “pair of balances”. Just get in line. You will get your fair share. Marx, the rider of the black horse, understood this. Communism from the Black Sea will make it all better. Just get rid of the “opium of the people”. Religion.
A Common Year
A new calendar starting in 622 would be 666 of the Julian Calendar starting with 44 BC. The Hijri year is 622 and the start of the Islamic calendar. A search of Daniel shows number refers to years. John knows Daniel is the place to go for clues. Follow the numbers.

A Great Wall Of Theodosius
A fulfillment of prophecy. Constantinople, the new Rome, didn’t always have seven hills but it did in the fifth century when Theodosius extended the walls of the city to include the seventh hill. This has been a “mystery” for most but everyone knew about the “merchants”. Few are aware of this thousand year empire.
A Prophecy Fulfilled
A sea of glass. They used Greek fire on the Sea of Marmara that was like a sheet of glass to defeat the Islamic attackers. The city was Constantinople, the capital of a Christian empire that would last a thousand years. The year was 666. The Byzantine Empire survived this and many other sieges.

A Mystery And Likely To Remain So
A perfect fit in history. Constantinople. No other city has all these characteristics: many waters 17:1, mystery 17:5, seven hills 17:9, merchants 18:11, is fallen, is fallen 18:2, and can be found no more at all 18:21. Constantinople was the capital of a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years.
A Date
A number. 666 Historians ignore that year but it is very clear Islam was getting ready to attack Constantinople. Gibbon notes the problem with dates and his 46 years reference puts it as close as 668. Putting 46 in an Islamic calendar converter results in 666. That is a calculation and not a count.

A Beast With Ten Horns At The End
A 666 number to mark its beginning. The great city of Constantinople is also a perfect fit for Babylon the Great. The seven dynasties of the Roman empire started the Byzantine empire and the tenth dynasty of Islam ended it. All of this can be found in history but the great city can be found no more at all.
A Mark
A beginning. A date is the most common mark on any product sold today. Consider 666 as a mark or a date. What happened in that year? What calendar? The Gregorian started in 1582 or the Julian starting at 44 BC or the Islamic calendar starting in 622? Consider them all.
