A Reason for the Apocalypse –
A preparation for the Way, the Truth, and the Life. This was a job for John the Baptist. He knew the Lamb. He knew Daniel. He knew the Old Testament. He bare record. He was the first John. John the Apostle was the second. Chrysostom was the third. It’s complicated but it can be explained.

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. Really.

A Prophecy Again –
A little book eaten by John the Apostle who added the seven churches. He was told to prophesy again. Followers of John the Baptist were found in Ephesus by Paul in Acts 19. This is a reasonable explanation of why John uses his name three times in the first chapter of the Apocalypse. Three different Johns.

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 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 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 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.
