A Newton Project –
A commentary on the Apocalypse. “Amongst the Interpreters of the last age there is scarce one of note who hath not made some discovery worth knowing; and thence I seem to gather that God is about opening these mysteries. The success of others put me upon considering it; and if I have done anything which may be useful to following writers, I have my design.” Interesting.

A First Coming –
A kingdom at hand. The time was near. John the Baptist knew the Lamb, a word used 27 times in the Apocalypse. He wrote the first one. Later John the apostle added Jesus and the seven churches. He knew about the followers of John the Baptist in Ephesus. There must be a third John.

A Prophecy Fulfilled –
A reliable connection with numbers and colors. Without them, your interpretation cannot be trusted. Translators cannot be trusted. What can be trusted? A literal sense of the word if it has been translated as such. The meaning of a word does not translate well which makes interpretation nearly impossible. It must be revealed. The wise will understand.

A Conjecture –
A reasonable explanation to address what is not settled. Who wrote it? When was it written? Why was the Apocalypse written? The Apocalypse has “a decidedly Jewish complexion” and it was suggested that John the Baptist was the first writer. Others have suggested multiple writers. All named John.

A Date for the Apocalypse –
A bishop, John Chrysostom, is the writer according to the astronomer Nikolai Alexandrovich Morozov who sets the date as 395. At this time five of the seven dynasties of Rome had fallen. Chrysostom was in Ephesus at the end of the fourth century. Would he not look for evidence of the most famous book of the bible? Was Chrysostom the third John of the Apocalypse?

A Meaning –
A tool for communicating. The translators couldn’t agree on the meaning of certain words. That is why there are 60 different English versions of the Bible. What do they agree on? Numbers and colors. This may be the only reliable connection of history and prophecy. Our interpretation of what has been prophesied must take this into account. Trust numbers and colors.

A Third John –
A confirmation that the apostle wrote the Apocalypse was necessary to get it in the Bible which was being translated and defined by Jerome. Just before the Vulgate was completed John Chrysostom was in Ephesus replacing seven corrupt bishops. Jerome needed a reliable version of the Apocalypse. A third John who also am your brother.

A Rider Named Death –
A Pale of Settlement that looks like Ukraine with a Sea of Azov that could be a pale sea. Pale is a border which should be in order. It can be a dangerous place if not respected. It could be the death of freedom. Death is the rider of the pale horse and hell will follow. Pay attention to what may be a sign of the times.

A Connection to John the Baptist –
A Lamb of God. A “bare record” clearly points to John the Baptist. So does the word “lamb”. This also explains why the time is at hand. He was preparing the way for the first coming. John the apostle knew all this when he added the seven churches and Jesus to his version of the Apocalypse.

A Black Sea –
A pair of balances something needed to feed the masses who use religion as one might use opium. Marx is the rider and the horse is communism from the Black Sea. Marx is the father of communism that considers religion to be the enemy. This is the second great threat to Christianity and any religion for that matter.
