A Writer Named John
A confirmation that the Apostle wrote the Apocalypse was needed for it to be in the bible today. Chrysostom was in Ephesus when Jerome was finishing the Vulgate. Many didn’t believe it was written by the Apostle and therefore didn’t belong in the bible. Thanks to Jerome we have it in the bible today.

A Reasonable Explanation
A question not addressed. Why does John introduce himself three times? He was asked to “prophesy again”. That could be another John. That’s two. Why not three? Multiple writers have been suggested by multiple commentaries. Both John the Baptist and John Chrysostom have been suggested.
A Patriarch In Exile
A great saint run out of town. Chrysostom appealed to the pope. This would lead to the Great Schism. While John was in Ephesus replacing seven corrupt bishops, those in power at Constantinople were conspiring against him. They had to get rid of him. They were the other bishops.
A Writer Of The Apocalypse
A constellation of stars is revealing. “Revelation in Thunder and Storm” by Morozov, an astronomer, has Chrysostom writing the Apocalypse in 395. He did run into a thunderstorm on his way to Ephesus in 401. Chrysostom, your brother, could be the third John of the Apocalypse.
A Third John
A necessary connection to the Apocalypse. How it became part of the bible. Many did not think it belonged there. John Chrysostom was one of them and he was in Ephesus when Jerome was finishing the Vulgate. Astronomy points to Chrysostom as the writer of the Apocalypse according to Morozov. There are other reasons.

A Bare Record
A connection. A bare record ties John the Baptist to John the Apostle and the Lamb of God. Just the word “lamb” ties John the Baptist to the Apocalypse. Only John the Apostle knew John the Baptist knew the Lamb of God. The original Apocalypse was about the first coming, which must shortly come to pass, to prepare the way.

A Book of Revelation
A bare record. A revelation to shew unto his servants. That’s plural. There is more than one John. John the Baptist who bare record. John the Apostle to the seven churches. John Chrysostom who also am your brother. It’s complicated but I can explain if you are really interested.

A Testimony of Jesus Christ
A “bare record”. It was John the Baptist “who bare record”. It was John the Apostle who wrote “to the seven churches”. It was John Chrysostom, “who also am your brother”, who was in Ephesus when Jerome was finishing his Vulgate and needed a reliable copy of the Apocalypse. Three Johns.

A Place Called Patmos
A man named John. Just one of His servants. There are two more also named John. The first bare record. The second wrote to the seven churches. The third was on the isle of Patmos. Three different Johns. A reasonable explanation for some of the questions surrounding the Apocalypse.
A Working Theory
A prophecy to be fulfilled by history. A hidden revelation sealed by Daniel but not by John. The end will not come until the gospel has been preached in all the world . The internet has made this possible. Behold, he cometh with clouds. Behold the internet cloud. Watch the cloud and use it. The end is near.
