A John –
A canon that only considers apostles. So why did they think John wasn’t the apostle? The apostle wouldn’t use his name five times. He wouldn’t say lamb more times than Jesus. The Baptist would since he didn’t know Jesus was the Lamb. The apostle knew who “bare record” and Jesus.

A Red Sea –
A great sword to take peace from the earth. The rider is Mohammed the father of Islam which is the fourth beast of Daniel and the second beast of the Apocalypse. It took them 44 years to get to Constantinople where they were stopped. It took them 110 years to get to Tours, France where they were stopped. The history of Islam is all the evidence you need to show that Islam is not a religion of peace.

A Test Of The Imagination –
A deaf person could tell you if they knew how to talk. You can teach them how to write but can you teach them what music is like? How can we know what it is like?

A City of God –
A new bible translated by Jerome precedes Augustine’s commentary on the Apocalypse in The City of God. Prior to the Vulgate many believed the Apocalypse did not belong in the bible. This was settled once and for all by Jerome who had the authority to define the bible. We still wonder about who wrote it and when.

A Color –
A location for the four horsemen. The Red Sea and the Black Sea are obvious. The White Sea not so much unless you consider the Aegean or Mediterranean Sea aka the white sea by the Turks. Like numbers, colors are not subject to interpretation and translation errors. You can trust them. Your interpretation not so much.

A Great Meal –
A time to enjoy food and drink. One of my favorites is hamburger steak on the grill, steamed corn on the cob, and sugared tomatoes. The best part is the two beers consumed while preparing it. You don’t need a holiday to do this.

A Revelation –
A testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is he that readeth. Augustine read it. “Why then read it if only to keep silence about it?” Understanding it is a challenge. You may not have time for this. You may not have that much time. It’s later than you think. You may need help understanding it. Ask for it.

A Holy Place –
A daily sacrifice shall be taken away. What is in the Holy Place now? Daniel has three references to abomination. The first is “he” and most agree he was Antiochus IV Epiphanes. The second is “they” shall place the abomination which is a better fit with the Dome of the Rock that is preventing the daily sacrifice.

A Salt Dump –
A cap removed. The salt shaker doesn’t have a cap, just a strainer which I accidentally removed and dumped a whole lot of salt into my favorite chili. That is when I learned that too much salt, like not enough salt, can kill you.

A Family –
A wife and children of Charlie Kirk. He wasn’t afraid to speak the truth. The importance of religion, faith, family, and having a father in the home. This father has been killed but he will be remembered as long as we don’t forget what he stood for. Time for us to stand up for it. We can’t let anyone forget it.
