A Bible –
A Book of books. Read the beginning and the end but not the middle. Still working on it. A book of stories. Stories to wrestle with.

a book you never finished but still think about
a red horse
A Red Sea –
A great sword and power to take peace from the earth. Mohammed, the antichrist and the father of the second beast from the Red Sea is the rider of the red horse. History records the wars against the saints. The ten horns are the ten Islamic dynasties. The ten horns also connect Daniel.

a prophecy
A Reason to Believe –
A blessing for “he that hath an ear”. A promise for he that overcometh. Not being hurt by the second death must be the most important. There is little agreement as to what the second death means. The death of the soul should be the primary consideration. Fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

a fictional world to vacation in
A Heigh Ho –
A great moment in cinematic history. It’s off to work we go. Weary and tired. We go because we must. Work now and feast later. Somehow we lost this. Borrow now and pay later. Don’t worry about the debt. It’s time to have fun.

a white sea
A White Horse –
A bow in the hand of the rider. A covenant with God not unlike the bow in Genesis 9:13. Constantine was from the Aegean or Mediterranean aka the white sea by the Turks and he made the world safe for Christians. The color of the sea and the color of the horse is telling, especially with the Red Sea and the Black Sea.

a history
A Fulfillment of Prophecy –
A connection with numbers that can be trusted. Your interpretation, not so much. Translators can’t be trusted but somehow they get the numbers right. If you have an ear, listen to what numbers and history can tell you. It is the only way the fulfillment of prophecy can be confirmed. Anything else is just someone’s interpretation.

If you had to get a tattoo right now, what would it be and why?
a bottomless pit
A Recapitulation –
A vision not in chronological order. In chapter 9 and 11 we have the beast coming out of the “bottomless pit” and in chapter 20 the beast is being cast into it. Victorinus was the first to suggest this theory of recapitulation. The bottomless pit is also consistent with the beast that was, is not, and yet is. The two beasts are really the same.
