A Whore –
A fit with history. Constantinople is Babylon the Great and Islam is the beast that hated the whore. It is a mystery and likely to remain so but the fit with history cannot be denied. It is fallen, is fallen, and can be found no more at all. It had merchants. It has many waters. It has seven mountains. No other city fits like Constantinople.

A Dynasty –
A commentary by Newton who saw the connection between the Apocalypse and Daniel. He also believed the “ten horns” they had in common referred to dynasties. Same for the “seven heads” so the historian should be looking for beasts with seven or ten dynasties. Only historians can count them.

A Translation Issue –
A beast. Your bible could have as many as 296 beasts or as few as 87. There are 20 translations that consider the beast in Revelation 13:1 a ‘he’ and 37 translations call it an ‘it’. This is a significant difference. Daniel 7:7 can help us here. The fourth beast is an it in all 52 translations. It has ten horns just like the beast in Revelation.

A Dynasty –
A hatred of the whore. Constantinople, Babylon the Great, fell to the tenth dynasty of Islam in 1453. This ended a thousand year Christian empire that started with the seven dynasties of the Roman Empire. Behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. The “ten horns” ties the fourth beast of Daniel to the second beast of John.

A Greek Fire –
A significant passage in the Apocalypse. In defense of Constantinople they used Greek Fire on the Sea of Marmara which was like a sheet of glass and the year was 666. A sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name. Islam.

A Dome of the Rock –
A desolation. What is in the holy place now? The Dome of the Rock is preventing the third temple and that makes Islam a beast different from all the others. The “ten horns” are the ten dynasties of Islam. Counted by Islamic sources. The Ottoman Empire, the tenth dynasty, ended the thousand year Christian empire, The Byzantine Empire, in 1453.

A Holy Place –
A key to understanding. See the abomination of desolation stand in the holy place. The Dome of the Rock. The temple is what makes a beast a beast in the eye of Daniel. Babylon destroyed the first temple, Greece desecrated the second and Rome destroyed it. The third temple cannot be built because of what stands in the holy place now. The temple has been replaced by the Church that stands in Rome now. Repent. The time is near now.

A Threat to Christianity –
A great sword to take peace from the earth. Mohammed from the Red Sea is the rider and the founder of the beast of Islam. Christianity is not the only religion threatened by this beast. The history of Islam clearly demonstrates this. Islam is not the only threat to Christians. See a black horse.
