A Connection with Daniel –
A fit with history. Both John and Daniel have a beast with “ten horns”. Constantinople, the capital of a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years, fell to the Ottomans, the tenth dynasty of Islam. Dynasties counted by Islamicart.com which is no longer active. There is a hard copy of this.

A Historian –
A history of the Roman Empire by Gibbon. 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 Prophecy Fulfilled –
A sea of glass. They used Greek fire on the Sea of Marmara that was like a sheet of glass to defeat the Islamic attackers. The city was Constantinople, the capital of a Christian empire that would last a thousand years. The year was 666. The Byzantine Empire survived this and many other sieges.

A Date –
A number. 666 Historians ignore that year but it is very clear Islam was getting ready to attack Constantinople. Gibbon notes the problem with dates and his 46 years reference puts it as close as 668. Putting 46 in an Islamic calendar converter results in 666. That is a calculation and not a count.

A History –
A reliable connection to prophecy. Your interpretation not so much. Same for many bible translators who do not agree. Numbers survive both. It is the only reliable way to verify the fulfillment of prophecy. Use numbers to connect history with what has been prophesied. A thousand years is a good place to start.

A Prophecy Fulfilled –
A number to verify a fit. Your interpretation cannot be trusted. Only history can verify the fulfillment of prophecy. Only numbers along with history can verify your interpretation of prophecy. Only prophets can predict the future. If you need the future for your interpretation of prophecy, think again. You are ignoring history and numbers.

A Sacred Bible –
A list of books that might not contain the Apocalypse at the end of the fourth century. John Chrysostom, who never quoted the Apocalypse, was in Ephesus at the beginning of the fifth century and Jerome was finishing his Vulgate. Was Chrysostom able to confirm that the Apocalypse was written by the Apostle?

A Witness –
A Church History that includes six of the seven churches that John wrote to but Eusebius never associates them with the Apocalypse. Victorinus doesn’t even mention them. Is it possible there is a version of the Apocalypse that doesn’t include the seven churches? It could be a reasonable explanation for what we are looking at.

A Red Sea –
A great sword to take peace from the earth. The rider is Mohammed the father of Islam which is the fourth beast of Daniel and the second beast of the Apocalypse. It took them 44 years to get to Constantinople where they were stopped. It took them 110 years to get to Tours, France where they were stopped. The history of Islam is all the evidence you need to show that Islam is not a religion of peace.

A Prophet Alone Knows The Future –
A fulfillment of prophecy can only be found in history by those who are not a prophet. The future can be anything you want it to be but not history. You can try to rewrite it but other honest historians will ultimately get their way. History is all we have and we should have enough of it for things which must shortly come to pass. History also has numbers and colors just like prophecy. We just need to connect them.
