a witness
A Commentary on the Apocalypse –
A dog that didn’t bark. Victorinus didn’t mention the churches. He does mention the seven churches that Paul wrote to. So why not mention the seven churches that John wrote to? It is possible that his version of the Apocalypse didn’t have the seven churches. We need to look at Eusebius to see if he has the same problem.

a prophecy
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 and it might lead you to the Byzantine Empire that fits with all the other numbers. And colors.

a commentary
A History –
A witness to what no longer exists. What was Victorinus looking at when he wrote his Commentary on the Apocalypse? What was Eusebius looking at when he wrote his Church History? We can only speculate based on what they wrote, what they didn’t write, and what is reasonable. Can we make sense of it? It makes more sense than most interpretations.

a misinterpretation
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. They did the reigning in a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years. Like the Byzantine Empire. It’s the only one. Check it out. It fits with the other numbers. And colors.

a question I hate to be asked
A Question I Hate To Be Asked –
A question: Why don’t I get a hearing aid? Cost. They don’t work well. I don’t like what I hear. Why are you shouting? Why don’t I get a smartphone? Why don’t I get my heart valve replaced? Because.

a history of the bible
A Canon –
A redaction at the turn of the fifth century. Jerome defined the bible when he finished the Vulgate which would become the official bible of the Church. It contains the oldest existing copy of the Apocalypse. We can only speculate on what it looked like before that time based on other older existing documents.

a hit on the internet
A “Reign Of Christ” –
A problem with the bible. The “Reign of Christ” cannot be found in the bible. “Reign of Christ” will get millions of hits if you Google it. Just another example of how the bible is misinterpreted. Who can you trust? What can you trust? Numbers. Interpretation is unavoidable but you should at least have the numbers to back it up. Or colors.

a failure that led to success
A Run For Congress –
A futile attempt. To dream the impossible dream. Later on I got a regular job, got married, and had a couple kids like everyone else. There would be challenges unlike everyone else that I successfully dealt with.
