A Sea Of Glass Mingled With Fire
A Greek fire was used on the Sea of Marmara that was like a sheet of glass to defeat the disciples of Mahomet. This passage, Revelation 15:2, is about the first siege of Constantinople. It’s about the beast, its mark, its image, its number and the sea of glass.
A Historian Named Gibbon
A problem with dates. Gibbon gets close also with a calculation. “Forty-six years after the flight of Mahomet from Mecca, his disciples appeared in arms under the walls of Constantinople.” 622 is the beginning Islam. 668 is close but if you put 46 in an Islamic calendar converter, you get 666.
A Teacher Protected
A teacher union. A teacher agenda. Racism and Transgenderism. Who is watching your kid? What are their priorities? What are yours? Life, marriage, and family. Protect the child. At birth, before, and after. It all starts with life. Start there.
A Year In History
A historian named John Julius Norwich gets 666 in his book “Byzantium” with a calculation. “The ensuing strife continued until 661, when Ali’s own assassination left Muawiya supreme. For the next five years the Muslim world would be in ferment – and Byzantium could breath again.”
A Recognition Of Prophecy In History
A reliable connection. Just as years are attached to the number thousand we look for what is attached to each number. If you search Daniel for the word number, you will see that it is also attached to years. What happened in the year 666 is a reasonable question.
A Prophecy Fulfilled In History
A connection with numbers. There is only one empire that lasted a thousand years and it was a Christian empire where they “reigned with Christ”. You won’t find “Reign of Christ” in the bible. Only on the internet. Look for 666, ten horns, and seven heads.
A Number
A bible translation to be trusted. There are 60 English bible translations with many revisions and many differences but somehow they all get the numbers and colors right. It may be the only way to reliably connect prophecy and history. Only history can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy.
A Lack of Justice
A difficult passage. Let him be filthy still and let him be unjust still. Does that mean we shouldn’t try to do something about it? Just overcometh it? We must work on in despair. He knows our works and we will be judged accordingly. We can’t just pray. We can’t be silent about it. Do something about it.

A Rider Named Death
A power to kill. A Pale of Settlement that looks like Ukraine. A Sea of Azov that looks like a pale sea. A fourth of the world. Another number nearly all the bible translations got right. Just like the colors. Numbers and colors can be trusted to connect prophecy and history.
A Comfort by Reading
A Blessing for he that overcometh. Blessed is he that readeth, watcheth, and keepeth what has been prophesied. That is not to say we shouldn’t work to make it better but not to be discouraged by what seems to be a hopeless situation. Never despair but if you do, work on in despair. The time is near.
