A Historian
a problem with dates. Gibbon gets real close. Go ahead, pick an Islamic calendar converter and put 46 in it. You get 666. 46 is the number Gibbon used. 46 years after the Hijri year Constantinople was attacked. A date is a mark. Gibbon notes the problems with dates.

A Date
a year, a mark, a beginning. On your mark, get set, go. A date is the most common mark there is. All products have it. 666 marks the beginning of Islam. It also marks the attack on Constantinople. Revelation 15:2 ties Greek fire, the Sea of Marmara, and the year Islam attacked Constantinople. – 666 – Really.

A Big Part
a key to understanding the Apocalypse. They reigned with Christ a thousand years. The Byzantine Empire has all the pieces. Babylon the Great. Seven Heads. Ten Horns. Two Beasts. All the pieces fit. The numbers fit. They fit with Daniel. This is where you start.

A Sea
a location. The color of the horses is a clue from whence they came. Start with the Red and Black seas. The white sea is a little tricky. It is the Mediterranean aka white sea according to the Turks. Like numbers, colors are translated accurately. No room for interpretation. The translators all agree on numbers and colors.

A Testimony of Jesus Christ
a “bare record”. It was John the Baptist “who bare record”. It was John the Apostle who wrote “to the seven churches”. It was John Chrysostom, “who also am your brother”, who was in Ephesus when Jerome was finishing his Vulgate and needed a reliable copy of the Apocalypse. Three Johns.

The word “Jesus” could have been added later by John the Apostle who knows John the Baptist knows the Lamb of God.

A Him Or An It
a translation problem. Can you find the beast if you are looking for a “him” instead of an “it”? In Revelation 13:1; 20 have “his horns”, 20 have “its horns”, 15 have “It had ten horns” . We need Daniel 7:7 to clear this up. “it had ten horns” is a clear winner. You need to look for an “it” and not a “him” to find the beast.

A Revelation
a book of what is to come. Only history can verify what has been prophesied. History based on numbers. Not on interpretation. You can only trust numbers. Numbers do not have to be interpreted. Start with the big numbers like a thousand

A Premillennialist
a thousand year “Reign of Christ”. They “reigned with Christ” is what is in the bible. That is a big difference. Look for a thousand years where they reigned with Christ. A Christian empire that lasted a thousand years. Like the Byzantine Empire. It’s the only one. Check it out. It fits.
