A Sea –
A location. The color of the horses is a clue from whence they came. Start with the Red and Black seas. The white sea is a little tricky. The Mediterranean and Aegean seas are also known as the white sea. Like numbers, colors are translated accurately. No room for interpretation. The translators all agree on numbers and colors.

A Prince –
A general or other? Good luck if you are looking for the king of the north. The translators can’t agree on Daniel 11:5. 24 think he was a prince and 28 think he was anything but a prince. princes 24, commanders 11, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, subordinates 1 – Go figure. Who can you trust? What can you trust? Numbers and history.

A Bible –
A version of each translation. Before the printer, no two bibles were alike. Now no two translations are alike. And there are way too many. About 60 English translations. Each translation has more than one version. So the “Word of God” is subject to translations, revisions, and interpretation. For the most part they agree on numbers. And colors.

A Fulfillment of Prophecy –
A connection with numbers that can be trusted. Your interpretation, not so much. Translators can’t be trusted but somehow they get the numbers right. If you have an ear, listen to what numbers and history can tell you. It is the only way the fulfillment of prophecy can be confirmed. Anything else is just someone’s interpretation.

A Third John –
A companion in tribulation. Chrysostom was in Ephesus replacing seven corrupt bishops. He could have gone to Patmos for the word of God. He must have known about Jerome who was translating the bible and that many believed the Apocalypse didn’t belong in the bible unless of course it was written by the Apostle. He could find out.
A Connection To History
A reliable interpretation. Numbers and colors that all translators agree on are the only reliable confirmation of prophecy fulfilled in history. Nothing else can be trusted and that certainly includes your interpretation which is no better than the others. Numbers and colors found in prophecy can be found in history. Just need to look.
A Testimony
A reason to trust what is written. All translations agree on numbers and colors. Not so much with other words. The writers were inspired. The translators not so much. Too many different versions. Too many different interpretations. Who or what can you trust? Numbers and colors are faithful and true. Use them to connect history with prophecy.
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 Word to the Wise
A final chapter. These sayings are faithful and true. The translators not so much. They couldn’t agree so we have 60 different English translations with many more revisions. Lord, to whom shall we go? Good question Peter. Not everyone has been properly inspired so some of us must rely on numbers and maybe colors. This is where the translators actually agree.

A Number
A connection between history and prophecy that can be trusted. Your interpretation? Not so much. Your translation? Not so much except for numbers and colors. Somehow they have survived what translators do to the Word of God. Some things are sacred.
