Revelation 17:15
‘The waters’ are the waves of ‘water’ at the top of the 7.
‘which thou sawest’ is John made into a 1 ‘looking’ at the water.
‘where the whore sitteth’ is the ‘woman sitting’ on the 7.
‘are peoples’ is the Revelation icon ‘R’ that sounds like ‘are’ & the equal sign for ‘are,’ & the 1 made into a man you can think of as his body & his head making a ‘p’ for ‘peoples.’
‘& multitudes’ you can think these 2 men, made in a 17, are making the shape of a capital ‘M’ for ‘multitudes.’
‘& nations’ is a map made in a 17 to look like ‘nations’ with water & land. You can think the 1 & 7 almost make an ‘n’ for ‘nations.’
‘& tongues’ are the tongues drawn on the bottom 17 with the 1 made into a ‘Tongue’ & the 7 made into a man with a tongue, which makes a capitol ‘T’ shape at the top of the 7 for ‘tongues.’
For verse :15 a royal blue ‘1’ is made on the first tongue & a royal blue ‘5’ is drawn on the bottom of the next tongue going to the end of it & around the left side of the body of the person with the tongue.
God tells the big picture 1st & then gives more details as the chapters progress. So, the Revelation 13 beast rising up out of the sea, which is ‘water,’ means it rose up out of many people. Then in Revelation 17 more details are given that this beast, is actually a church that is over many people, & multitudes, & nations, & tongues.

Revelation 17:4
‘And the woman’ is the ‘woman’ on the 7.
‘was arrayed’ you can think of the 7 making ‘a ray’ with the Revelation icon ‘R’ for the ‘r’ in ‘arrayed’ & the big ‘a’ also for the ‘a’ in ‘arrayed.’
‘in purple & scarlet colour’ you can think of her dress as a mixture of ‘purple & scarlet.’
‘& decked with gold & precious stones & pearls’ you can think of as the ‘gold & precious stones & pearls’ on her dress & arms.
‘having a golden cup in her hand’ is the ‘golden cup in her hand,’ that you can think makes a 4 shape.
For verse :4 a royal blue ‘4’ is drawn on the purple/scarlet garment of the woman, & another royal blue ‘4’ is drawn on the bottom of the gold & precious stones & pearls on her arm, & another ‘4’ is made on the golden cup to remember the order of the items: the garment colours of purple & scarlet, the gold & stones & pearls, & then the golden cup.
So, some of the official people in this church will be dressed in ‘purple & scarlet,’ & ‘decked with gold, & precious stones, & pearls,’ & can be recognized by the ‘golden cup in their hands.’

Revelation 13:3
‘And I saw’ is the 3 made into eyes.
‘one of his heads as it were wounded’ is the 1 made into a sword going into ‘1 of his heads’ on the beast.
‘to death & his deadly wound’ is the beast laying on its back like it is ‘dead.’
‘was healed’ is the beast standing up without the sword in his head.
A large 3 is made on the side like it is pointing to the ‘wounded head,’ then to the ‘death,’ then to the ‘healed wound’ for the sequence of what happened to the beast.
‘& all the world wondered after the beast’ is the 1 person on the left & 3 people standing on the ‘world’ with their arms out like they are going ‘mesmerized after the beast.’ The 1 person & the 3 people you can think makes a 13. The Revelation icon ‘R’ is placed beside the man & the world for the ‘r’s in ‘world, wondered & after.’
To ‘wonder after’ something means the effect of novelty upon ignorance & does not necessarily accompany love, esteem or approval, nor directed to persons. ‘Wonder’ is also something that arrests attention by its novelty grandeur or unexplainableness.
For verse :3 a royal blue ‘3’ is made on the 3 pointing to the 3 things that happened to the beast: wounded, to death, then healed, & another royal blue ‘3’ is made around the face & arms of the man wondering after the beast.
So, the beast, or church, is not necessarily loved or esteemed or approved of by people, but her novelty grandeur of pomp & power captivates the people, mainly because they know not the scriptures & cannot understand or explain the churches mysterious power over people.
_________________________________________________________
1. ‘Changes’ in Daniel 7, where the beast ‘changes times & laws.’
‘changes’ is the man with his arm up like he is going to do something.
‘times’ is his other arm down with the watch on it.
‘& laws’ is the Daniel Icon parchment paper & pen.
You can think this makes a half circle for a ‘c’ shape for ‘changes.’
2. ‘Church’ in Revelation 17, where the beast ‘is a woman, church.’
‘is’ is the equal sign.
‘a woman’ is the woman on a 7.
‘church’ you can think of her arm going out & her body to make a ‘c’ shape for ‘church.’
3. ‘City’ in Revelation 17, where the beast ‘is that great city.’
‘is that great’ is going up the 7 to the woman sitting on the 7 & the equal sign.
‘city’ is the city drawn beside the woman.
You can think of going around the city to make a ‘c’ shape for ‘city.’
4. ‘Mark’ in Revelation 13 & 14, where the beast ‘has a mark.’
‘has a mark’ is the sun for Sunday worship.
You can think of tracing the top sun rays to make an ‘m’ shape for ‘mark.’
5. ‘Mother’ in Revelation 17, where the woman’s name is ‘the mother of harlots.’
‘the mother’ is the larger woman on a 7.
‘of harlots’ is the smaller woman on a 7.

6. ‘Mountains’ in Revelation 17, where the woman ‘sits on 7 mountains.’
‘sits’ is the woman sitting on the 7.
‘on 7 mountains’ is the 7 & the 7 made into a mountain with snow on top.
You can think of going over the woman & over the mountain to make an ‘m’ shape for ‘mountain.’
7. ‘War’ in Daniel 7, & Revelation 13 & 17, where the beast makes ‘war with saints 1260 years.’
‘war’ is the sword.
‘with saints’ is the man & lady’s faces.
‘1000’ you can think is the man making a 1 shape.
‘200’ is the 2 watches.
’60 years’ is the dividing sign for the top of a 6 & the divided watch at the bottom making the bottom of the 6 & the ‘0’ is the drop of blood making a zero shape.
You can think of going under the sword & under the saints to make a ‘w’ shape for ‘war.’
8. ‘Waters’ in Revelation 13 & Revelation 17, where the beast came ‘out of & over nations.’
‘out of’ is the 0 shape of the 1st water drop for the ‘o’s in ‘out & of.’
‘& over’ is the 0 shape of the 2nd drop of water for the ‘o’ in ‘over.’
‘nations’ is the 17 made into a map of a ‘nation.’
You can think of going under the 1st drop & under the 2nd drop to make a ‘w’ for ‘water.’
9. ‘Wears’ in Revelation 17, where the church wears ‘purple & scarlet colour.’
‘purple & scarlet colour’ is the purple & scarlet colored paint dots.
You can think of going under the purple color & under the scarlet color to make a ‘w’ for ‘wears.’
10. ‘Wears’ in Revelation 17, where the church wears ‘gold, stones & pearls.’
‘gold’ is with the gold bar.
‘stones’ is the ruby stone.
‘pearls’ is the pearl.
You can think of going under the gold & under the ruby & pearl to make a ‘w’ for ‘wears.’
11. ‘Wears’ in Revelation 17, where the church wears ‘a golden cup in her hand.’
‘a golden cup in her hand’ is the golden cup in her hand.
You can think of going under the arms of the woman & under the cup to make a ‘w’ for ‘wears.’
12. ‘Wound’ in Revelation 13, for the beast’s ‘deadly wound healed.’
‘deadly’ is the beast laying down.
‘wound’ is the sword in 1 of his heads.
‘healed’ is the beast standing up.
You can think of going under the deadly wounded beast & under the healed beast to make a ‘w’ for ‘wound.’
God has given us many identifiers of the beast in Daniel & Revelation, & some take a lot of effort & looking back at history to understand, but we have been memorizing the 12 most obvious & easily identifiable verses that were in Daniel 7, & Revelation 13, 14, & 17 & put them in alphabetical order together in a chart.
The 3 ‘C’ words, then 3 ‘M’ words, then 6 ‘W’ words

Revelation 13:11
‘And I beheld’ is John ‘looking’ over at the beast.
‘another beast’ is the 2nd beast made in a 1 & a 3 for chapter 13.
‘coming up out of the earth’ is the feet of the beast on the ‘earth’ with the Revelation icon ‘R’ for the ‘r’ in ‘earth’ placed by the earth that he is ‘coming up out of.’
‘& he had two horns like a lamb’ are the 2 horns at the top of the 1 with his face that looks like ‘a lamb’ & his body on the 3 that also looks like ‘a lamb.’
‘& he spake as a dragon’ is the fire coming out of the beast’s mouth.
This ‘2nd beast comes up out of the earth’ as opposed to the 1st beast that rises out of the sea which means out of many people. So, the 2nd beast or kingdom arises out of a place that does not have many people.
For verse :11 a royal blue ‘11’ is drawn on the 2 lamb-like horns.
This 2nd beast has ‘2 horns’ with no crowns on them which means the rulership is in the hands of the people. Being ‘lamb-like’ illustrates how this beast was young, innocent & gentle, like giving civil & religious freedom to everyone. Revelation 12 says that Satan deceives the whole world & the dictionary says that deceive means to mislead by a false appearance and/or false statements like what Satan did when he deceived Eve. And now God is warning us that this 2nd beast will do the same by beguiling the world.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 13:12
‘And he’ is the lamb/dragon 2nd beast drawn on a 13.
‘exerciseth’ is the ‘exercising’ arm at the top of the 2.
‘all the power’ is the arm at the top of the 2 again, & the Revelation icon ‘R’ beside it for the ‘r’ in ‘power.’
‘of the first before him’ is the 1 with ‘st’ for ‘1st’ & the 1st beast on the earth before the lamb/dragon 2nd beast.
‘& causeth the earth & them which dwell therein to worship the 1st beast’ is illustrated with 3 small people laying down on ‘the earth, worshipping the 1st beast.’
‘whose deadly wound’ is the beast laying down on his back for ‘deadly,’ & the sword in his head, for ‘wound.’
‘was healed’ is the beast standing up.
For verse :12 a royal blue ‘12’ is made on the 1st number 1 & a 2 on the exercising arm.
Here we see that the lamb/dragon ‘2nd beast is going to have power to cause the whole world to worship the 1st beast,’ which is a church. So, the church itself does not enforce the people to worship it, but the lamb/dragon 2nd beast will tell the world & cause them to worship the church, by obeying the church’s false doctrine that becomes a law.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 13:13
‘And he’ is the lamb/dragon 2nd beast.
‘doeth great’ is the 3 made into hands, for ‘doeth’ & the 1 made into an arrow going up, for ‘great.’
‘wonders so that he maketh fire come down from heaven’ is the fire & the hands, again, for ‘maketh’ & the ‘fire coming down from’ the 3 made into a cloud for ‘heaven.’ The Revelation icon ‘R’ you can think of for the ‘r’ in ‘fire.’
‘on the earth in the sight of men’ is the ‘earth’ with 3 men ‘looking up.’
For verse :13 a royal blue ‘1’ is made on the fire & a royal blue ‘3’ is drawn on the side of the heaven cloud.
So here the Bible says the lamb/dragon 2nd beast, not the 1st beast, is going to make fire come down from heaven. The next part of this chapter says the 2nd beast is going to deceive the people by the ‘great wonder of bringing fire down from heaven.’ So, this 2nd beast is deceiving the people by the amazing things they do.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 13:14
‘And deceiveth’ is the fire that ‘deceives.’
‘them that dwell on the earth’ are the people drawn on a 4 with the 1 made into an arrow pointing to the earth for ‘them that dwell on the earth.’ The Revelation icon ‘R’ is placed by the earth to think of the ‘r’ in ‘earth.’
‘by the means of those miracles’ is the ‘miracle’ fire, again.
‘saying’ is the lamb/dragon 2nd beast with the fire coming out of his mouth speaking like a dragon to mislead the people by beguiling & trapping them.
‘to them that dwell on the earth’ again, are the people drawn on a 4 with the 1 made into an arrow pointing to the earth that the lamb/dragon 2nd beast is speaking ‘to.’
‘That they should make’ are the hands that ‘make’ things.
‘an image to the beast’ is the ‘image’ at the bottom of the 3 & ‘the beast’ at the top of the 3 & the arrow going up made into a 1 to represent going from the ‘image to the beast.’ It is also made to look like paper with writing on it to understand that the ‘image to the beast’ is the law to worship on Sunday, the 1st day, which is the paper with a little 1st written on it to help us remember that the ‘image to the beast’ is the law to honor the 1st day.
For verse :14 a royal blue ‘14’ is made on the arrow pointing down to the earth & the people.
So, the lamb/dragon 2nd beast will speak like a dragon, because, by doing these fire wonders, the beast will beguile & ensnare the people into making the 1st day law.
So, the 1st beast, or church, is not going to enforce anything or bring down fire from heaven. The lamb/dragon 2nd beast is who is going to deceive the people into worshipping the 1st beast & do something that the 1st beast, or church did, which was to mix civil & religious laws together & force the conscience.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 13:15
‘And he’ is the lamb/dragon 2nd beast.
‘had power’ is the 13 made with a man with ‘powerful’ muscles, & the Revelation icon ‘R’ beside it for the ‘r’ in ‘power’.
‘to give life’ is the arrow pointing to ‘Life’ written with a sideways ‘L’ for ‘Life’ with the flowers & leaves on it that are ‘alive.’
‘unto the image of the beast’ is the arrow pointing to ‘the image of the beast’ at the bottom of the 3 & the beast at the top of the small 3 with the small 1 made into an arrow point up to the beast & made to look like paper with 1st written on it for the 1st day law.
‘that the image of the beast’ is again the 13 with ‘the image’ at the bottom & ‘the beast’ at the top & the arrow pointing up to the beast made to look like paper for the 1st day law.
‘should both speak’ is a 3 made into a mouth with voice lines ‘speaking.’
‘& cause’ is the 3 made into hands, ‘causing.’
‘that as many as would not worship the image of the beast’ is the 1 making a ‘not’ sign going across the person bowing down worshipping the image in the bottom of the 3, with the beast at the top of the 3 & a 1 made into an arrow pointing up to the beast made to look like paper for the 1st day law.
‘should be killed’ is the 1 made into a sword & a 3 made into a quiet man & lady’s face.
For verse :15 a royal blue ‘1’ is made on the arrow pointing to the image of the beast & a royal blue ‘5’ is made on the "life" plant with flowers & around the image of the beast below it, & another royal blue ‘15’ is made on the sword & the people’s faces.
The lamb/dragon 2nd beast is going ‘to give life unto the image of the 1st beast,’ which would be the law of that church’s 1st day of worship that will be enforced. So, this is saying, that the lamb/dragon 2nd beast is going to have this law become a reality & make people do it or be punish.

Revelation 13:16
‘And he causeth’ is the 13 made into the hands that ‘causeth.’
‘all’ you can think are ‘all’ the people in this picture.
‘both small & great’ is a 13 made with an arrow going up that is ‘small’ & a ‘small’ head at the top of the 3 & an arrow going down that is bigger or ‘greater,’ & a larger head for ‘great’ at the bottom of the 3.
‘rich & poor’ is a 13 made into a large arrow at the top to represent more money & a bag full of money for ‘rich’ at the top of the 3 with the Revelation icon ‘R’ beside the ‘rich’ bag for the ‘r’ in ‘rich,’ & the small arrow at the bottom of the 1 to represent less money, & a 1 cent coin for ‘poor’ at the bottom of the 3.
‘free & bond’ is the man made in the 1 with his arms up showing that he is ‘free’ with no handcuffs on him & the 3 made into handcuffs for ‘bond.’
‘to receive’ is the 1 made into an arrow pointing to the 3 for ‘to receive.’
‘a mark in their right hand or in their foreheads’ is the top of the 3 made into a right hand with the palm up because the ‘mark’ is ‘in their right hand’ with a sun ‘mark’ in it for Sunday worship, with the Revelation icon ‘R’ for the ‘r’ in ‘right’ hand, & the bottom of the 3 is made into many people with sun ‘marks in their foreheads,’ for the Sunday ‘mark’ going ‘into their minds.’
For verse :16 a royal blue ‘1’ is made on the arrow pointing from the small to the great and a royal blue ‘6’ is made around the face of the small person, & another royal blue ‘1’ is made on the arrow pointing from the rich to the poor and a royal blue ‘6’ is made on the bag of riches, & another royal blue ‘1’ is made on the free man & a royal blue ‘6’ is drawn on the top hand cuff.
So, we see the lamb/dragon 2nd beast will cause all people, to receive the ‘mark’ of the 1st beast, or church, which is Sunday worship.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 13:17
‘And that no’ you can think is the blank area to the left of the man with ‘nothing’ in it.
‘man’ is the 1 made into a ‘man.’
‘might buy or sell’ is the 3 made on the man’s hands & the Revelation icon R, with all of its jewels, that the man is ‘buying or selling’ it to the man on the right.
‘save he that had the mark’ is the 3 made into a hand, at the top with a sun ‘mark’ in it & a forehead at the bottom with a sun ‘mark’ in it.
‘or the name’ is represented with a 3 made into a mouth with voice lines because we speak somebody’s ‘name’ with our mouths.
‘of the beast’ is the ‘beast’ drawn at the bottom of the mouth.
‘or the number’ is a 3 made into hands showing 6 fingers, that you can think represents the ‘number’ 666.
‘of his name’ is a mouth again at the bottom of the hands with voice lines for speaking ‘his name.’
For verse :17 a royal blue ‘1’ is made on the left side of the Revelation icon ‘R’ & a royal blue ‘7’ is drawn on the man buying or selling to the right of the ‘R.’
So, this is saying that people will not be able to ‘buy & sell’ except they show their allegiance to the 1st beast by having ‘his mark, or his name or his number.’
We have to also remember that there will be no good choice at this time. If we take the ‘mark of the beast’ & get to ‘buy & sell,’ we will soon be receiving the 7 last plagues on this earth & then the sure torment & the 2nd death in 1000 years. It will eventually be a very bad choice. And on the other hand, if we do not take the ‘mark of the beast,’ we may either die as a martyr, or go through the time of trouble with hunger, weariness & delay, which will be bad also.
There will be no good choice for anyone, so we should think of the bigger picture, & go for the streets of gold & the presence of Jesus & our heavenly Father & eternal bliss for ever & ever that never ends & resist taking the ‘mark of the beast,’ & stand for God’s law. The Spirit of Prophecy says that some apparently may not engage in the conflict on either side. They may not appear to take sides against the truth, but they will not come out boldly for Christ through fear of losing property or suffering reproach. All such are numbered with the enemies of Christ. So, God is telling us here, that we must speak out & firmly stand for the 7th day sabbath.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 13:18
‘Here is wisdom’ is the Revelation icon ‘R’ for the ‘r’ in ‘here’ placed by the top of the man’s head in the 3 for it being a jewel to have ‘wisdom’ in your mind.
‘Let him that hath understanding’ is the arrow in the shape of a 1 pointing to the man at the bottom of the 3 that is ‘under’ the other man’s face to think of ‘understanding.’
‘count the number of the beast’ is the 3 with hands in it ‘counting the number’ 666, represented with 6 fingers, ‘of the beast’ that is drawn in a 13 beside the 6 fingers.
‘for it is the number of a man’ is again, the 3 with hands, with 6 fingers, for ‘the number’ 666, & a 1 drawn into ‘a man.’
‘& his number is six hundred threescore & 6’ is the ‘600’ at the top, & since a score equals 20, & 3 times 20 equals 60, ‘60’ is in parentheses to represent 3 score, & a ‘6’ is at the bottom.
A 3, for Revelation 13, is made beside the 3 numbers like it is pointing to the ‘600, the 60 & the 6.’ Since 60 does not look like ‘3 score,’ you can think of the 3 when we say the ‘3’ & the parentheses around the 60 for ‘score.’
For verse :18 to help you remember where the 666 number is, you can think that the three 6’s equals 18 for verse 18, so a royal blue 3x6 = ‘18’ is drawn at the bottom of the man.
Some very good people & some very bad people have had names throughout history that add up to ‘666,’ using different numbering systems, but this does not mean they are the beast.
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 18:4
Revelation 18:2 says, ‘Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, & is become the habitation of devils, & the hold of every foul spirit, & a cage of every unclean & hateful bird.’ So, these are drawn in the church. Then Revelation 18:4 calls God’s people out of these churches.
‘Come out’ are the people ‘coming out’ of the church building. The Revelation icon ‘R’ is placed by the people because they are God’s jewels for ‘coming out.’ The top of the 8 is God’s mouth saying ‘Come out’ & making an ‘o’ for ‘out.’
‘of her’ is the church, a woman in Bible prophecy, made with the 1 as the steeple.
‘my people’ is the top of the 8, again, made with a mouth for God telling ‘his people’ to come out.
‘that ye be not partakers of her sins’ is the bottom of the 8 made into the habitation of devils, & the hold of every foul spirit, & a cage of every unclean & hateful bird that represents ‘her sins.’
‘& that ye receive not of her plagues’ is the small church at the right with a 1 made into a steeple & the top of the 8 made into a ‘p’ for ‘plagues’ & the bottom of the 8 with the sins in it & the church on fire.
For verse :4 a royal blue ‘4’ is drawn on the church receiving her plagues for her sins.
There has been some confusion as to the origin of this Babylonian church that God is calling His people out of. Is it the original church that Jesus built with His apostles or not?
_________________________________________________________
Revelation 2 tells us about the original church with the letters to the 1st 4 churches. From the perfect church Jesus made at Pentecost, it begins its fall in Ephesus by keeping true & pure doctrine but ‘leaving its 1st love,’ to some of them in Smyrna considered the ‘synagogue of Satan,’ to Pergamos dwelling where the ‘seat of Satan’ is, to the warning to Thyatira of being ‘cast in a bed’ of tribulation for allowing the teaching of false doctrines by Jezebel.
Revelation 6, where the Lamb, Jesus opens the 6 seals of the future to us, describes the original church like this, with the progression, from seal 1. the white horse of the conquering rider, to seal 2. the red horse of martyrs, to seal 3. the black horse of darkness with no light, where they begin to let in false teachers & false doctrines, to seal 4. the pale horse with the death rider that has so much false doctrine in it that people can’t find the way to salvation to seal 5. the plea of the martyrs, where the church actually turns on God’s people & persecutes them from 538 to 1798 to seal 6. with the sun black as sackcloth of hair, & the moon as blood which happened in 1780, & then the stars falling in 1833.
And on a Timeline it looks like this:
We have Babylon starting its rule in about 606BC, then Medo-Persia starting its rule in about 538BC, then Greece starting its rule in about 331BC, then Rome starting its rule in about 168BC, with Jesus starting His church during the Roman rule with the pure white woman, which was the white horse, changing to the red horse, to the black horse, to the pale horse & proceeded to get involved with the civil authorities & became ruler over the people diversely by getting the kings to join the church & rule over the kings with moral authority & became diverse Rome that goes to the end of time.
While the people who tried to stay pure & true to Jesus & the 10 commandments were persecuted by this church from 538 to 1798, which is the 1260 years the pure woman of Revelation 12 fled to the wilderness. So, we can see that this church had its origin as Jesus’ church & is the beginning church institution that quickly became corrupted as the Bible foretold it would. And now God is calling the people at the end of time to come out of her & to become the pure church that believes Jesus when He said, ‘if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments’ & they will keep all the commandments & not worship on Sunday & boldly start honoring God’s 7th day sabbath.
_________________________________________________________
You can think of the 1 & 6 in chapter 16 as 1 + 6 = 7, for the 7 last plagues. The Revelation icon ‘R’ is placed by the 1 made into an angel to represent the 7 angels who are commissioned to pour out the 7 last plagues on the earth. The 6 is made to look like the 7 last plagues being poured out on the earth.
The 1st plague is ‘there fell a noisome & grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast & upon them which worshipped his image.’
So, we will use the short phrase ‘fell a sore,’ illustrated with a 1 made into an arrow pointing down to the ‘sore’ that you can think is ‘falling,’ made kind of red & pink because ‘sores’ turn kind of reddish pink.
This is represented on the Revelation 16 earth with the clouds above the earth with lines coming down for the ‘sore falling’ on the earth.
The 2nd plague is on ‘the sea, & it became as the blood of a dead man & every living soul died in the sea.’
So, we will use the short phrase ‘sea as blood of dead’ represented with a 2 made on its side to look like black waves of the ‘sea’ because the ‘blood of the dead’ turns dark & almost black. And the circle you can think of as a grave or tomb ‘of a dead’ man.
This is represented on the Revelation 16 earth with the black in the ‘seas’ of the earth.
The 3rd plague is upon ‘the rivers & fountains of water, & they became blood.’
The short phrase we will use is ‘rivers become blood’ with 3’s made on their side for the ‘rivers,’ colored red for ‘blood.’
This is represented on the Revelation 16 earth you can think of as the ‘blood’ actually being poured out of the angel’s vile coming down on the earth & the little red lines for the ‘rivers’ on the land.
The 4th plague is upon the sun ‘& power was given unto him to scorch men with fire, & men were scorched with great heat.’
So, the short phrase we will use is ‘sun scorches’ with a 4 drawn yellow like it is the ‘scorching’ rays of the sun, & the ‘sun’ up above the 4 on the left because the sun was created on day 4 also that you can correlate together.
This is represented on the Revelation 16 earth with the yellow ‘scorch’ line rays coming down on the earth.
The 5th plague is ‘the seat of the beast, & his kingdom was full of darkness.’
The short phrase we will use is ‘darkness on seat of beast & kingdom’ with the top line of a 5 making a roof or awning that makes shade below from the sunshine coming down from the sun above that puts a shadow & ‘darkness’ on the chair with the beast in it drawn on the bottom of the 5 for ‘on seat of beast’ & all of the seat for ‘his kingdom.’
This ‘darkness’ is represented on the Revelation 16 earth as the black seas, also.
The 6th plague is on ‘the great river Euphrates & the water thereof was dried up that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared, & three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon & out of the mouth of the beast & out of the mouth of the false prophet, for they are the spirits of devils working miracles.’
So, we will use the short phrase ‘Euphrates dries up, 3 spirits out of mouth’ with the top line of the 6 drawn blue like a river for the ‘Euphrates drying up’ & the ‘3 spirits’ like frogs are the 3 frogs beside it, & the bottom of the 6 is made into a ‘mouth’ to symbolize the 3 mouths of the dragon, beast, & false prophet.
This is represented on the Revelation 16 earth with the 3 white puffs, as the ‘3 spirits.’
The 7th plague is ‘a great earthquake such as was not since men were upon the earth & there fell upon men, a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent.’
So, we will use the short phrase ‘great earthquake, talent hail (50 to 100 pounds)’ with the top of the 7 made into a 7 sectioned brown line, for the color of the ‘earth quaking’ & being broken up, & the bottom of the 7 made into 7 ‘hail’ stones.
This is represented on the Revelation 16 earth with the black variegated line going across the earth for the ‘earthquake,’ & the groups of 7 blue ‘hail’ stones falling on the earth.
A talent was the largest amount of measuring weight in the Hebrew economy & when you research how much a talent is, the references range from 54 pounds to 57 to 66 to 75 to some in the 80’s & 90’s & some even a little more. So, to understand talent hail is anywhere from 50 to 100 pounds helps us to comprehend the magnitude of this very last plague that it is so heavy that it will practically destroy everything.
Revelation 16 (the 7 last plagues)

1 John 3:4
‘sin’ is Eve from the Genesis 3 account, drawn in the middle of the 3 reaching up & disobeying God by eating from the tree & ‘sinning’ & the flying serpent in the tree at the top of the 3 & the serpent going on his belly at the bottom of the 3 with an arrow showing Adam & Eve were put out of the garden as the result of ‘sinning.’
‘is’ is the equal sign.
‘the transgression of the law’ is the 1 John loving person sad because he is ‘transgressing’ by trampling with his feet & dropping ‘the law’ of the 10 commandments made on a 3.
For verse :4 a royal blue ‘4’ is drawn on the 10 commandments.
Webster's dictionary says, ‘sin’ is either a positive act in which divine law is violated or the voluntary neglect to obey a positive divine command or a rule of duty clearly implied in such command.

Genesis 4:7
‘If thou doest’ is the man representing Cain with his hands out because we ‘do’ things with our hands to represent ‘doest.’
‘not well’ is represented with the lamb that is away from him that he did ‘not’ bring for his sacrifice.
‘sin lieth at the door’ is represented with the word ‘sin’ at the bottom of ‘the door’ made out of a 4, for ‘sin lieth at the door.’ ‘sin’ is written in red because Cain didn't bring his lamb & slay his lamb, & ‘sin’ cost God the sacrifice & blood of His Son, to pay the price for our ‘sins.’ ‘4’ & ‘door’ rhyme for ‘sin lieth at the door in Genesis 4.’
The Genesis icon is by the word ‘sin’ to think, ‘sin’ was in the world at the beginning of the Bible.
For verse :7 a royal blue ‘7’ is made on the bottom of the door & the 4.
God told Cain he ‘sinned’ when he did not bring a lamb as God commanded. So, the sacrificial law is bound up in the 1st commandment, to obey only God. This was before Moses received the 10 commandment law about 2,500 years later. So, the 10 commandments & obedience to them did not begin with the Jews. This makes sense because the 10 commandment laws are how to love God & people. It always has been & always will be. It is eternal.

Romans 3:31
‘Do we then make void the law’ is the Roman icon column with the 3 drawn with hands pushing off & ‘making void the law’ drawn with a 3 on the top of the 10 commandments.
‘through faith?’ is the cross drawn going ‘through’ the lines of the column.
‘God forbid’ is a 3 made into a cloud for ‘God’ & the arrow going down for ‘forbid.’
‘yea’ is the arrow going up beside the 10 commandments to indicate ‘yes.’
‘we establish the law’ are the hands for God’s people, made in a 3, standing the commandments, made on a 3, back up on the Roman icon column, with the arrow going up, also for ‘establishing the law.’
For verse :31 a royal blue ‘3’ is drawn on the hands at the right & the arrow going up is made into a royal blue ‘1.’
Because we have faith in Jesus as the Son of God to help us overcome, Paul says this should make us stand on God’s side & uphold his law by establishing it & making it the foundation of our life, like Jesus told the man he healed & the lady caught in her ‘sin,’ you are healed & forgiven, now go & ‘sin’ no more. This is obeying the commandment of Jesus. He commands us to ‘sin’ no more. This is how we will be able to identify God’s people. They will not be denying the power God gives them to overcome & will be obeying God’s commands. They will have in their heart like Psalm 119:113 says, ‘thy law do I love’ & Psalm 40:8 ‘I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.’

Romans 6:15
‘What then?’ is the man with his arms out making a ‘W’ for ‘What then?’
‘shall we sin’ is the man for ‘we’ grabbing the 6 made into a sword & a man’s head for commandment 6 ‘not kill’ for ‘sin’ on top of the Romans icon column.
‘because we are not under the law’ is the ‘not’ sign going across the Romans icon column with the penalty of the ‘law,’ the wages of sin is death, made as the grave in the 6 in the ground ‘under’ the 10 commandments in the 6 on top of the Romans icon column, that we disobeyed. We do not have to die for our sins, because Jesus, the Lamb, died in the place of our death.
‘but under grace?’ is the 6 drawn with a cloud for heaven & an arrow going down to show that we are ‘under grace’ coming down to us, that we can claim Jesus as our ‘Lamb’ & not sacrifice our own lambs for our sins. The penalty was paid by Jesus.
‘God forbid’ is also the cloud with the arrow coming down for God saying no, we are ‘forbidden’ to sin.
For verse :15 a royal blue ‘1’ is made on the not sign going across the Romans icon & a royal blue ‘5’ is made going across the top, side, & around the bottom of the Romans icon.
God is saying we cannot sin. The law to obey the 10 commandments is still binding by God because they are laws of love. It would be bad if we could steal & kill & take God’s name in vain.
But the law that we have to die for disobeying the law, we are not under any more if we take Jesus’ death as our death, he is our Lamb that was sacrificed that fulfills the sacrificial law. Many people believe that since we are not under the law but under grace means that we are not under obedience to the 10 commandment law. But this is not what this chapter is talking about. It is talking about the penalty for disobeying the law. The new idea that we are not under the 10 commandment law is not what is taught line upon line & precept upon precept throughout the Bible.
Here, people have taken a passage out of the Bible & made it a doctrine that does not speak according to the law & to the testimony, that is, according to the rest of the Bible. This false & inaccurate information about ‘grace’ is going to lead many away from the kingdom because they will not be striving to obey the 10 commandments in order to overcome defects & disobedient tendencies & will not be able to enter into the kingdom of God. In other words, we do not want to be deceived & mislead into disobeying the commandments, that is ‘sinning’ & believe that we can still go with Jesus when he comes back. Because Jesus says, ‘If thou will enter into life, keep the commandments.’

Matthew 7:14
‘Straight is the gate’ is the ‘strait,’ no curving ‘gate’ at the top of the 7.
‘& narrow is the way’ is the 7 made into a ‘narrow’ & thin road ‘way.’
‘which leadeth unto life’ is the 7, with the arrow beside it pointing up to eternal ‘life.’
‘& few there be that find it’ is the one man for ‘few’ made into a 7 with his finger pointing to the straight gate & the narrow way that he has ‘found.’
The sermon on the mount is in Matthew 5-7, so Jesus is drawn in the shape of a 5 to remember that the sermon on the mount starts in Matthew 5 & the Matthew icon crown you can think a is for Jesus telling them how to understand the scriptures correctly so that they can obey & receive their crown in heaven.
For verse :14 a royal blue ‘1’ is drawn on the bottom of the strait gate & a royal blue ‘4’ is drawn on the top of the strait gate.
Jesus also told them in Matthew 7:13 that, ‘wide is the gate, & broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, & many there be which go in there at.’ So, one of the identifying traits of God’s people in the end is that they will be the minority that do not take the mark of the beast. There will be a large amount of people that will take the mark of the beast, so we need to be prepared for that because the Bible says it is so, & take courage from the fact that we will be in the minority & understand we are on our way to eternal life, & the poor mark of the beast people will not be.

Exodus 23:2
‘Thou shalt not follow’ is the man made at the end of the Exodus icon wave walking on the ‘T’ with his arms out in front for him ‘not following’ the people going a different direction on the right.
‘a multitude’ is the Exodus icon wave on the right with 2 people on it.
‘to do’ is the 2 for ‘to,’ made into hands that are ‘doing.’
‘evil’ is the 3 made with ‘Eve’ eating from the tree that was ‘evil’ to disobey God & eat from the tree of the knowledge of good & ‘evil.’
For verse :2 a royal blue ‘2’ is made on the 1st multitude person.
This text helps us to understand what we will be tested on in the end. Will we follow a multitude to worship the beast & his image & receive his mark, or will we stand alone & obey God?
_________________________________________________________
Roman 6:4
‘Therefore we are buried’ is the 6 pointing to a grave in the ground.
‘with him’ is the next 6 pointing to Jesus’ face.
‘by baptism’ is the next 6 pointing to the water in it.
‘into death’ is the next 6 pointing to another grave.
‘that like as Christ’ is the 6 pointing to Jesus’ face on the Romans icon column.
‘was raised up’ is the arrow going up to the cloud & glory rays coming from it to reflect that he went ‘up’ into heaven.
‘from the dead’ is back to the 6 pointing to the grave with Jesus' face in it.
‘even so’ is the ‘even’ top of the Romans icon column.
‘we also should walk in newness of life’ is the man at the top of the 6 with his hands up & feet like they are walking happily & joyously because his sins are forgiven, & he is born-again ‘new’ in this world of ‘life.’
For verse :4 a royal blue ‘4’ is drawn on the sides & bottom of the Romans icon & the four 6’s in the ground can help you remember this is verse ‘4.’
Paul tells us how to celebrate or honor Jesus’ death on the 6th day & His resurrection on the 1st day.
It is to be dead to sin & alive to God. This is how we can identify God’s people in the end. They will honor Jesus’ death by showing they want their disobedient life to be dead by being baptized, & honor Jesus’ resurrection by walking in newness of life by being born-again & desiring to obey God daily.

Matthew 7:21
‘Not everyone’ is the man with a 7 across him as a ‘not’ sign for ‘not everyone.’
The Matthew icon crown you can think is for Jesus telling the people how to understand the scriptures correctly so that they can obey & receive their crown in heaven.
‘that saith unto me’ is the 7 made into a man with voice lines ‘speaking to Jesus.’
‘Lord Lord’ you can think that an ‘L’ makes an upside down 7 to remember ‘Lord Lord’ is in Matthew 7.
‘shall enter into the kingdom of heaven’ is the man with a not sign across him not ‘entering into the kingdom heaven’ with the 7 made into a building with the Matthew crown on top for ‘kingdom’ & the cloud for ‘heaven.’
‘but he that doeth’ is the man made into a 7 with his arm out & his hand drawn large for ‘doing’ something.
‘the will’ is the 7 made into the scriptures that he is doing & he is standing on the Matthew icon crown to think that he will get a crown in heaven for doing God’s ‘will.’
‘of my father which is in heaven’ is a 7 made into a man standing on the Matthew icon crown & cloud to look like our ‘Father which is in heaven.’
For verse :21 a royal blue ‘2’ is made on the right side of the cloud of the kingdom of heaven & a royal blue ‘1’ is drawn on the left side of the scripture page.
We will tell God’s church, when the mark of the beast is enforced upon the world, to come out of the mother & her daughter churches & join those that are obeying the 4th commandment that has been sadly transgressed by many people for many years & will be received into heaven at Jesus’ soon return.
_________________________________________________________
Matthew 7:22
‘Many will say to me’ are the 7 men drawn in 7’s with voice lines ‘saying to Jesus’ drawn sitting on the mountain.
‘in that day’ is the sun placed above them.
‘Lord, Lord’ is the ‘L’ as an upside down 7 for Matthew 7.
‘have we not prophesied in thy name’ is the large man made in a 7 on the next Matthew icon crown & mountain, with the large voice lines by his mouth for ‘prophesied’ & the voice lines again for ‘in thy name.’
‘& in thy name have cast out devils’ is the medium sized man drawn in a 7 with voice lines for ‘in thy name’ & lines coming from his hands & 2 ‘devils’ drawn beside the lines that he is ‘casting out.’
‘& in thy name done many wonderful works' is the smallest person drawn in a 7 with the voice lines again for ‘in thy name’ & his hand out for ‘done’ & the fire coming down in the shapes of 7’s for ‘wonderful works.’
For verse :22 a royal blue ‘22’ is drawn on the 2 devils that are being cast out.
So, a lot of people Jesus says will be saying, ‘Lord, Lord’ & ‘doing many powerful miracles’ using the ‘name’ of Jesus, but as we learned earlier that the only ones He considers His people are the ones doing the will of our Father, which is the 10 commandments.
_________________________________________________________
Matthew 7:23
‘And then will I profess’ is the voice lines by Jesus.
‘unto them’ are the 7 men made in 7’s.
‘I never knew’ is the arrow pointing to Jesus’ mind.
‘you’ is Jesus’ hand out, pointing to them.
‘depart from me’ are the backwards 7’s drawn into men walking away & ‘departing from Jesus’ with their arms & backs turning away from Jesus.
‘ye that work iniquity’ is the man with a hammer ‘working iniquity’ in the city of Babylon which is the disobedient woman, church, made on a 7 for Matthew 7.
For verse :23 a royal blue ‘2’ is drawn on the man working & the top of the Babylon building & a royal blue ‘3’ is drawn around the head & around the cup of the woman of iniquity.
Isaiah 59:2 gives the definition of iniquity, ‘But your ‘iniquities’ have separated between you & your God, & your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.’ Here we see that God says ‘iniquity’ is sin & God cannot ‘work’ miracles for sinners, that is, those that disobey the 10 commandments. It is the spirits of devils, ‘working’ miracle & performing those mighty & inspiring ‘works’ for people not obeying God’s laws. We want to have Christ in us, the hope of glory, so that it will be the Holy Spirit ‘working’ our miracles.

Acts 5:29
‘We ought to obey God’ is the arm at the top of a 5 that is high in the air, like they are wanting to do high & heavenly things holding on to God’s commandments at the bottom of the 5 & ‘obeying God.’ You can think the bottom of the 5 makes an ‘o’ shape for ‘ought’ & ‘obey.’
‘rather than men’ is another 5 made into a person with a piece of paper & a pen in their hand which is representing the people at the end that will make a law of ‘men’ that they will enforce on the people. The Acts icon stage you can think is the legislator’s building where ‘men’ make the laws.
For verse :29 a royal blue ‘2’ is made on the pen & hand on the left of the man & a royal blue ‘9’ is drawn on his hand holding the paper on the right.
So, God’s people will be ‘obeying God rather than men’ & will not obey the law of men that goes against God’s direct command to rest & keep holy the 7th day Sabbath. They will not rest on another day & reverence it. They will do the will of our heavenly Father & Jesus.
_________________________________________________________
1 Samuel 2:30
‘Them’ is the 2 drawn into 2 faces to represent ‘them.’
‘that honour’ are the arrows pointing to the 1 Samuel icon scepter to represent ‘that honour.’
‘me’ is the cloud to represent God for ‘me.’
‘I’ is the next cloud to represent God for ‘I.’
‘will honour’ is the 1 Samuel icon septre for ‘honour.’
For verse :30 a royal blue ‘3’ is drawn on the right side of the 1st cloud & a royal blue ‘0’ is made in the middle of the 2nd cloud.
So, in the end, with all of its turmoil & trouble such as was not since there was a nation, we will want to remember & tell the world that those who take hold of Jesus & receive His power, because it will take a lot of God’s power to resist the whole world against us, & honor God’s 7th day Sabbath law, God says He will honour. Jude says it like this ‘now unto him that is able to keep you from falling & to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.’
