A Daily Writing Prompt –
A chance to think and talk about yourself. My favorite topic. I do look forward to this. Get lost in thought and maybe learn something about yourself. Speaking and writing is a challenge for me and I need time to get it right. Thank you WordPress for the opportunity.
A Translation Issue –
A beast. Your bible could have as many as 296 beasts or as few as 87. There are 20 translations that consider the beast in Revelation 13:1 a ‘he’ and 37 translations call it an ‘it’. This is a significant difference. Daniel 7:7 can help us here. The fourth beast is an it in all 52 translations. It has ten horns just like the beast in Revelation.

A Friend For Christianity –
A bow, a covenant between God and man. Constantine from the Aegean or Mediterranean Sea aka the white sea. He started a Christian empire where they would reign with Christ a thousand years. The Byzantine Empire is the place to start fitting history with prophecy with a thousand years. A literal thousand years.

A Movie Watched More Than Five Times –
A movie, “My Fair Lady” comes to mind immediately. In my mind it is the greatest movie ever made. There are other movies like “Groundhog Day” but can’t be sure it is five times. I will watch both these movies again and again.
A Big Problem –
A word can be misleading if you are looking for the king of the north. There are eight different words in 52 different translations: princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1. These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them.

A Threat to Christianity –
A great sword to take peace from the earth. Mohammed from the Red Sea is the rider and the founder of the beast of Islam. Christianity is not the only religion threatened by this beast. The history of Islam clearly demonstrates this. Islam is not the only threat to Christians. See a black horse.

A Black Cat –
A reasonable fear. Not here. Just another color of my favorite animal. I do believe in spirits like the soul that will leave the body when the time is right. That is a reasonable belief. I also believe in spirits that you drink. Like beer.
A Fit With Daniel –
A king of the south, Mohammed, and his daughter, Fatimah, along with one of his commanders, Muawiyah, who will become even stronger is a good fit with Daniel. Some of the bibles use the word princes (25) instead of the more believable words like commanders (11) as we shall see in a following post.

A Threat to Christianity –
A balanced approach to society sounds good at first but somehow it makes religion the enemy. It is the opium of the people but “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need” is what Jesus would expect and that would require a pair of balances, but why is religion the enemy?

A Killer Of Rats –
A hunter that investigates anything new. Sniff. There will always be too many rats and not enough cats. They are fighters and belong outside. They have always been my favorite animal and would like to compare myself to them.
