a little horn 

A Fit with Daniel – 

A horn is a dynasty and before whom there were three of the first horns. Saladin came out of the Fatimid Caliphate, the fourth of ten Islamic dynasties, and would start the fifth, the Ayyubid dynasty. We also have the Battle of the Horns of Hama and the Battle of the Horns of Hattin. Both involved Saladin. He not only beat the crusaders, he beat Richard the Lionheart. It’s a fit.

a reason to believe 

A Home For Doubt – 

A necessary explanation for what we experience.  We have to make sense of it.  To ignore it is to deny reality.  To deny objectivity.  Call it speculation, conjecture, or whatever but please accept the fact that there must be a reason, a purpose, a meaning, etc.  At least ask the question why.  There must be a reasonable explanation.

A Number – 

A connection between history and prophecy that can be trusted.  Your interpretation?  Not so much.  Your translation?  Not so much except for numbers and colors.  Somehow they have survived what translators do to the Word of God.  Some things are sacred.  There are 60 different English translations to choose from.  Which one do you trust?

A Big Problem – 

A word can be misleading if you are looking for the king of the north. There are eight different words in 52 different translations: princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1.  These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them.

a red horse 

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.
