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 Servant of God
A testimony of Jesus Christ. A bare record ties John the Baptist to John of the Apocalypse. A first coming. A preparation. A voice of one crying in the wilderness. A Lamb of God known only to John the Baptist who knew the “lamb” in the first Apocalypse.

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 John
A canon that only considers apostles. So why did they think John wasn’t the apostle? The apostle wouldn’t use his name five times. He wouldn’t say lamb more times then Jesus. The Baptist would since he didn’t know Jesus was the Lamb. The apostle knew who “bare record” and Jesus.

A Servant of God
a “lamb” and the “bare record” ties John the Baptist to the Apocalypse. Vischer holds the Apocalypse to have been originally a purely Jewish composition. It would not have included the seven churches that Eusebius and Victorinus failed to recognize. A reasonable explanation why they didn’t.

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 John
a servant of God who knew the Lamb but not Jesus. John the Baptist who bare record knew the time is at hand for the first coming. That is why you find the word “lamb” 27 times in the Apocalypse. The name “Jesus” only 12 times. Added later by another John.
A Bare Record
known only to John the Apostle who clearly links John the Baptist to the Apocalypse. A “bare record” plus the use of the word “lamb” 27 times should force all bible scholars to consider John the Baptist as the original writer of the Apocalypse.

A Clue
ignored by biblical scholars. John the Apostle knew Jesus was the Lamb. John the Baptist didn’t and John the Apostle knew this as well. So why would he use the word “lamb” 27 times and the word “Jesus” only 12 times? Who “bare record”? John the Baptist.
