a look back 

A Church History 

A problem with the churches.  Eusebius mentions six of the seven churches of the Apocalypse but never associates them with the Apocalypse.  He doesn’t mention Antipas.  All this would be consistent with an earlier version of the Apocalypse written by John the Baptist.  Victorinus has a similar problem.

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.

A Search for Truth 

A hidden prophecy to be revealed in the end.  How?  To those who watch?  Watch for what?  Something that fits with what has been prophesied.  Based on your interpretation?  Based on a certain bible translation?  Is there anything that they agree on?  Yes.  Numbers and colors.  Try connecting history and prophecy with just numbers and colors.

A Red Dragon 

A Red Sea.  A Black Sea.  A White Sea.  Colors are significant.  Numbers are significant.  Together with history they can lead us to a correct interpretation of what has been prophesied.  Try to make sense of them.  A reliable interpretation of prophecy depends on this.  Your understanding will improve.

a fit with history

A Prophecy Fulfilled 

A number to connect them.  Numbers can be trusted.  Your interpretation, not so much.  There are way too many different translations of the bible but they all seem to agree on the numbers.  Only history can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy and only numbers can reliably connect history to prophecy.
