John the Apostle is writing to the seven churches. Who are they? What does that tell you?

What is reasonable? To say the Apocalypse, written 2000 years ago, is about the second coming is not reasonable when it says the time is near. To say it is about the first coming could be reasonable if it was written before Jesus. We have reason to believe there is a version of the Apocalypse...

Why prophecy? To prove God is in control. To comfort those not in control who are suffering. You don't need to understand it but it is there if you need some kind of assurance. The Apocalypse has concepts not addressed in any other place of the bible. Like the second death. Who talks about...

A Thousand Years A bottomless pit connects chapters: 9, 11, 17, and 20 which proves the theory of recapitulation introduced by Victorinus. It holds that the chapters of the Apocalypse are not necessarily in chronological order. The beast chained in chapter 20 is being released in chapter 9...

Two Witnesses Search the Bible for "two olive trees". Zechariah 4 leads to Zerubbabel, a governor, who is "always associated with the high priest" Joshua and together started the second Temple. Church and State working together. "In the order of Melchizedek". a priest-king, who was the first...

Babylon the Great It is not Rome. Everyone knew it had seven hills. Even Peter. It was not a mystery. Constantinople having seven hills was a mystery and likely to remain so. It had many waters and merchants. It has fallen and can be found no more at all. It was the capital of the Byzantine...

The Four Beasts of Daniel The fourth beast of Daniel had "ten horns" and they shall "hate the whore". Therefore Rome cannot be the fourth beast of Daniel or the whore, the great city, that lasted a thousand years. The ten horns ties the fourth beast of Daniel to the second beast of the...

Thank you for the question. Constantine created the Byzantine Empire that would last a thousand years and ended up protecting Rome.

Do you agree that 666 is associated with the second beast with ten horns that replaced the one with seven heads?

Okay, now can you show how Nero fits in with the rest of the Apocalypse?

The Four Horsemen Constantine is the rider of the white horse from the white sea, not The White Sea. The Mediterranean and Aegean seas are both aka the white sea. The bow in his hand is a rainbow not unlike the bow in Genesis 9:13 which is a covenant. Mohammed is the rider of the red horse...

666 "Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six" .13:18 31 translations calculate the number and only 15 count it. I calculate it with a calendar converter. Daniel suggests...

You could start the next thread with 666. That does seem to get a lot of attention. Put it in the title. Good idea.

So how is the next thread going? Still working on the title. Why? Don't know whose names to put in. You only need three. Which three? Clete, Idolater, and Annabenedetti. Thanks

Why is Nero 666?

The second death is mentioned four times in the Apocalypse and nowhere else in the bible. The meaning should be obvious. If the first death is the death of the body, then the second one should be the death of the soul. We should only fear Him who can "kill the soul" which is mentioned only once...

Are you working on another Apocalypse thread? Yes So what is new? A little more detail. What about the second death? Will cover that. You didn't cover it here. I did mention it. But not in detail. That is for the next thread. Why not here? It may help me get more views in the next...
