A Connection With Daniel
A common beast with “ten horns”. John knows Daniel and Daniel knows beasts. What makes a beast a beast? The Temple. Don’t mess with the Temple. Babylon destroyed the first Temple. Greece desecrated the second that was destroyed by Rome. Islam is preventing the third with the Dome of the Rock.
A First Coming
A Lamb of God. A sacrificial Lamb. A necessary redemption that we might be saved. They slew all the children that were in Bethlehem. Today we kill them before they are born. The bishops are silent. They do talk about climate change. Life, marriage, and family are now being sacrificed for the New World Order. The Reset.

A Beast That Is To Come
A beginning and an end to a thousand year empire. The Byzantine Empire. It started with the Roman Empire that had seven dynasties and ended with the Ottoman Empire that had ten dynasties. A good fit but this requires an understanding of what makes a beast a beast and only Daniel can help us with this problem.
A Working Theory
A prophecy to be fulfilled by history. A hidden revelation sealed by Daniel but not by John. The end will not come until the gospel has been preached in all the world . The internet has made this possible. Behold, he cometh with clouds. Behold the internet cloud. Watch the cloud and use it. The end is near.

A Babylon The Great
A capital of a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years. Constantinople alone has all the characteristics: many waters 17:1, mystery 17:5, seven hills 17:9, trade 18:11, it has fallen, fallen 18:2, and it can be found no more at all 18:21. Does it have seven heads and ten horns? We shall see.
A Church History
A dog that didn’t bark. A commentary that doesn’t include the seven churches. A Church history that doesn’t connect the seven churches with the Apocalypse. Is there a reasonable explanation? Their version of the Apocalypse did not mention the seven churches. There are other reasons to suspect this.

A Reign With Christ
A place to start. The “Reign of Christ” cannot be found in the bible. You can find “a thousand years” where they “reigned with Christ”. The Byzantine Empire. The ‘reign of Christ’ can only be found in the future. ‘A thousand year reign’ can be found in history just by using the number and not your interpretation.
A Time
A writer. It was written by John on Patmos. Don’t know when or which John. Are there three of them? Why does John introduce himself three or four times? These questions have not been answered so we are forced to speculate based on what was written by those who read what no longer exists. What were they looking at?

A Number In Daniel
A number of years. A date? A common mark on products sold today. So what happened in the year 666? Nothing. Historians avoid that year but history does show Islam getting ready to attack Constantinople the capital of an empire where Christians reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
A Theory
A few have suggested multiple writers of the Apocalypse. Vischer held that the Apocalypse was “originally a purely Jewish composition”. – Josephine Massyngbaerde Ford may have been the first to suggest it was first written by John the Baptist. Considering these possibilities can lead to a better understanding.
