A Christian Empire
A reign with Christ. The Byzantine Empire was a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years. They reigned with Christ. This is where to start. Will the other numbers fit? 666, ten, seven. Daniel can help us with “ten horns”. The fourth beast of Daniel is the second beast of John. What do we know about beasts?

A Passage In Daniel
A reference to years. What happened in the year 666? What calendar do you use? What calendar was in effect? John understood Daniel. Daniel understood by books the number of the years. John sends us to the Old Testament for clues. John understood by books. John understood the Lamb of God. Do you understand?

A Julian Calendar
A beginning in 44 BC. 622 in the Gregorian calendar, which began in 1582, was the beginning of the Islamic calendar. 666 in the Julian calendar marked the start of Islam. A number in Daniel 9:2 refers to the number of years. That is what Daniel understood by books.

A Historian
A problem with dates. Gibbon gets real close. Go ahead, pick an Islamic calendar converter and put 46 in it. You get 666. 46 is the number Gibbon used. 46 years after the Hijri year Constantinople was attacked. A date is a mark. Gibbon notes the problems with dates.

A Date
A year. A mark. A beginning. On your mark, get set, go. A date is the most common mark there is. Nearly all products have it. 666 marks the beginning of Islam. It also marks the attack on Constantinople. Revelation 15:2 ties Greek fire, the Sea of Marmara, and the year Islam attacked Constantinople. – 666 – Really.

A Big Number
A place to start. There is only one Christian empire that lasted a thousand years. It was attacked in the year 666. It was ended by the 10th dynasty of Islam. It was started by the Roman Empire that had seven dynasties. This is a good start. Does it fit with the other parts? We shall see. The “ten horns” are a clue in Daniel.

A Fulfillment Of Prophecy
A number for verification. Interpretation of numbers is not necessary. 1000 is 1000. 666 is 666. Ten is ten. Seven is seven. Use these numbers to connect prophecy with history. Only history and numbers can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy. Can you trust anyone’s interpretation? You can’t. Trust the numbers.

A Fit With All The Key Numbers
A history of the Apocalypse. It includes a thousand years, 666, ten horns, seven heads, and a perfect fit with Babylon the Great. Constantinople has it all. The Timeline of the Apocalypse starts with John the Baptist and ends with the beginning of Istanbul. Babylon the Great can be found no more at all.
A Connection With Daniel
A different beast in common with John. The “ten horns” ties it all together. They “shall hate the whore” and John provides enough clues to identify Babylon the Great. Islam can identify ten dynasties. Constantinople was attacked by the second one in 666 and fell to the tenth one in 1453.
A Fit With History
A fulfillment of prophecy must include all the numbers. The Byzantine empire has them all. A thousand years, 666, ten horns, seven heads, five are fallen, four horsemen, three unclean spirits, and two witnesses. Only history can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy and only numbers can reliably connect them.
