A Third John –
A patriarch was in Ephesus replacing seven corrupt bishops. At the time five of the seven dynasties of the Roman Empire had already fallen and Jerome was finishing the Vulgate. He may have needed a reliable copy of the Apocalypse to translate. John Chrysostom was someone you could trust.

A Mystery –
A misinterpretation. Even Peter knew he was in Babylon. Some are still looking for his bones south of Baghdad. That is the real mystery but Rome having seven hills was never a mystery. The seven hills of Constantinople is still a mystery and likely to remain so. It will never fit with their narrative.

A Question Asked –
A question not answered. It is not about Jesus. It is about the Lamb. It is not about the second coming. It is about the first coming. It is all about preparing the way. A job for John the Baptist who bare record. John the Apostle added Jesus and the churches. The second John. Who is the third?

A History Connected With Numbers –
A reliable confirmation of prophecy fulfilled by history connected with numbers. There are way too many bible translations with little to agree on. Somehow they do agree on numbers and colors. Use them to find historical events that confirm the fulfillment of prophecy.

A Reliable Connection –
A translation problem, with so many different bibles, is further aggravated by interpretation issues that force most prophecies into the future. Numbers are the only way to reliably connect historical events to what has been prophesied. Start with a big number like a thousand years. There is only one where they reigned with Christ. The Byzantine Empire.

A Fulfillment Of Prophecy In History –
A number to connect them. A reliable way to find historical events that seem to fulfill what has been prophesied. There are way too many different interpretations of way too many different translations of the bible to confirm any fulfillment of prophecy. Numbers may be the only way to reliably connect history with prophecy.

A Reason to Explain –
A need to understand what is written. From Augustine:
“What then, Brothers, shall we keep silence?
Why then read it if only to keep silence about it?
Or
why hear it if it is not to be explained?
But also,
why explain it if it is not to be understood?”

A Purpose For Our Existence –
A word not found in some bibles. Here is an example from one that has it. We are being tested. “Many shall be refined, purified, and tested, but the wicked shall prove wicked; the wicked shall have no understanding, but those with insight shall.” This is the purpose, the reason, why we are here. Life has meaning. Those with insight shall understand. Testing 1, 2, 3.

A Reason to Believe –
A blessing for “he that hath an ear”. A promise for he that overcometh. Not being hurt by the second death must be the most important. There is little agreement as to what the second death means. The death of the soul should be the primary consideration. Fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
