A dynasty. Five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come. The Roman Empire had seven dynasties.

A First Version of the Apocalypse –
A conjecture that it was written by John the Baptist was first suggested by Josephine Massyngbaerde Ford. She is not the first to suggest multiple authors of the Apocalypse. Peter Vischer did suggest it was “originally a purely Jewish composition”. It has also been suggested that it was originally written in Hebrew. That’s the truth.

A Little Book To Eat –
A command to prophesy again. Why would John eat a little book? To get it into the bible. It is in the bible because certain key players believed it was written by the Apostle. So who wrote the little book that John ate? The Baptist. He was preparing the way for Lamb. The ‘Lamb’ can be found 27 times in the Apocalypse. “Bare record” can be found five times in the bible.

He could have written the original Apocalypse.

A Reason for Prophecy –
A search for understanding. Why, Where, Who, When, and What????? The answers should make sense. All the questions must be considered. For the most part we are limited to speculation which should be consistent with what we do know. The first question is Why. Why was the Apocalypse written?
