A New Interpretation –
A reasonable interpretation based on history and numbers. Real numbers that connect prophecy with history. So why do you need to know this? You need to know the Church Jesus built upon this rock. You need to know the rules. What’s okay and what’s not okay. We don’t make the rules. They are made for us.

A Second John –
A prophecy repeated. John the Apostle to the seven churches. John the Baptist who bare record knew the Lamb of God and the Apostle knew the Baptist. John Chrysostom, a third john and a brother, was in Ephesus at the beginning of the fifth century when Jerome was finishing the Vulgate, the official bible of the Church.

A Light Shines No More At All –
A candlestick and olive tree connects the Apocalypse with Zechariah which leads to Zerubbabel who is always connected with Joshua and together they started the second temple. Joshua, a high priest, and Zerubbabel, a governor, suggests the Church and the State working together are the two witnesses. Like the Byzantine empire and the Holy Roman empire.
A City Of God –
A bible defined. Augustine didn’t want another bible but Pope Damasus did for almost the same reason. A lot of confusion about what was in the bible. Augustine finally writes about the Apocalypse in chapter 7 of Book 20 in his City of God well after Jerome finished his Vulgate which would become the official bible of the Church.
A Commentary By Augustine
A bible that includes the Apocalypse Augustine comments on the Apocalypse after Jerome includes it in the Vulgate while Chrysostom was in Ephesus before he was exiled from Constantinople. Three major players in the early Church. Chrysostom, the greatest of them all, could not protect himself from the corruption in the Church. Jerome and Augustine somehow survived like their works.
A Turn Of The Fifth Century
A major player. Jerome was finishing his Vulgate and Augustine was starting his City of God. Chrysostom was in Ephesus replacing seven corrupt bishops. The Church was in good hands. Jerome and Augustine exchanged letters. Chrysostom, who was exiled, exchanged letters with the pope. The Apocalypse was in the bible. These dots can now be connected.
A New Jerusalem
A Church on a rock. Rome with twelve gates and one river running through it. Don’t wait for it to cometh down out of heaven. It is here now. Just as Jerusalem was the center of the Jewish religion, Rome, the New Jerusalem is the center of the Christian religion. See the map. His Church.

A Church And State
A restoration starts with the Church which must guide the state. Just follow the money and sex. A job for the laity. The Church and Her teachings are threatened by something called “clericalism” which sounds a lot better than “money and sex”. Only the laity can make it better.
A Nice Start
A spirit of Vatican 2. The reformation continues with the laity to “open wider the doors of the church”. Or did you mean “open wide the doors of the church”? Did you mean to make it easier to be Catholic? Rules make it so hard to be good. Maybe just saying Lord, Lord will work.
A Threat To Religion
A threat to life, marriage, and family. The rider was Marx, the father of communism, socialism, and modernism. The Church stood in the way. Her teachings on life, marriage, and family would inspire many to fight for liberty and justice for all. That fight continues today. Save the Church. Save the Truth and your freedom.
