Seven Visions of St. John was written for youths who are familiar with the Bible.
It recalls the old prophets that had insights about the end-times and then moves up to our present day where the youths enjoy a special summer camp as they learn about the fascinating Book of Revelation.
This book’s interpretation of Revelation is called by scholars a “recapitulation”. It is not chronological, but repeats itself and will cover the same incidents in various chapters. For example, the LORD returns more than once within the Book of Revelation. This “recapitulation” is not a new idea but goes back to the early church.
There are many symbols in Revelation. Some have a standard meaning originating from the Hebrew. But some symbols are more complex. Rather than giving one explanation for each of these symbols, this book gives a few interpretations that are rational. Possibly they are all right!
As we get closer to the time when the LORD will return, mysterious passages that are difficult to explain, will get clearer. We can then say “This is that”!

This book could be ordered through Trilogy Christian Publishing (TBN), Barnes & Nobles, Amazon and other booksellers. My pen name is Granny Vee.
Granny is not young. I am on oxygen temporarily, so that these songs are not up to my par! I take a lot of breaths! However, these songs have been beneficial to me in my faith so I wanted to share them with you. They keep in mind Scripture! (My songs when I was younger can be heard on Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music, and other music apps under Carolyn Anne Venable.)
These songs are taken from the book of First John. John was a beloved apostle of Jesus Christ.
1.
This is My commandment that you love one another that your joy may be full. (2x)
That your joy may be full. That your joy may be full.
This is My commandment that you love one another that your joy may be full.
Reference:
1John 1:4 And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.
1John 3:23 And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.
2.
Behold what manner of love the Father has given unto us,
Behold what manner of love the Father has given unto us,
That we should be called the sons of God!
That we should be called the sons of God!
Reference:
1John 3:1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
3. This is one of my first songs written in 1987. Chorus and third verse. See here for all verses.
O Holy King of Israel Who reigns upon the throne You’re coming for those who’d believe You’re coming for Your own. O Holy King of Israel O Holy King, Immanuel!
When He appears, we shall be like Him For we shall see Him as He is!
4.
Greater is He who is in me, Greater is He who is in me, Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.
Reference:
1John 4:4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

What do Granny Vee and Waldo have in common? Search games! Granny Vee calls them “Kooky Quests”!
Have you ever searched for Waldo in a picture book? He can be very hard to find! But I chanced upon him outside the State Capitol of Texas. (Do you know where the Capitol of Texas is? Answer below.)
“Waldo” tells the good news to people! You can read more of this good news here!
Rare photo: There is very little SNOW in southern Texas! This was the SNOWSTORM that crippled southern Texas in February 14-15 of 2021.
The answer to the question: The capitol building is in Austin. But the city of Austin is the capital of Texas. If you are speaking of the building, it is spelt* “capitol”. But the city is spelt “capital”.
Mnemonic: You may remember this as Austin is the capital with an “a”, but the old office building is spelt with an “o”!
mnemonic = something to aid in memory (don’t pronounce the “m” in this crazy word!)
“Spelt” or “spelled”: Either is correct. When I grew up, it was “spelt” and I think it sounds better, so I prefer it! But the more common way is “spelled”.
The “Tower of the Flock”, or Migdal Eder, was the place where Passover lambs were birthed in Bethlehem. This is most significant because the Tower had a manger and swaddling clothes!

A Little Lamb Story
Let’s go back more than 2000 years ago….a different time, a different culture …
It was the very first day of their first month of Israel’s year – a glorious spring! “Lambing season” had begun! Spring is the time for baby lambs to be birthed. So, the shepherds were in the fields of Bethlehem that night – expecting the births of little lambs. But did they expect the Lamb of God to be born that night? This Lamb of God would be their King of Israel, their Messiah, and the Savior of the whole world!
YHWH God, who created the heavens and the earth, uses His own calendar. The first day of the first month is Nisan 1 and, according to many rabbis, it celebrates the dawn of the creation. How wonderful that Yeshua the Messiah may have been birthed on Nisan 1 since the LORD does bring us new life!
1. Nisan is the first month of the year. (v2) People have changed their calendar often, but still God keeps His original calendar!
Interesting Facts from Exodus 12:1-14
2. Lamb Selection Day was on Nisan 10. (v3) This also was when Jesus Christ rode in to Jerusalem which we now celebrate as “Palm Sunday”.
3. The lamb chosen was to be without blemish, a male, and a year-old. (v5)
4. The lamb was sacrificed on Nisan 14 to be the Passover lamb. Jesus Christ (Yeshua) was crucified on Nisan 14, and He became our Passover Lamb.
5. The blood of the lamb was put on the doorposts and lintel to protect the people within from the judgment of the LORD.
6. The killed lamb was to be roasted and eaten with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs. (v.8)
7. This is the LORD’s Passover. (v11) It should be celebrated yearly forever! (v14)
Question: How can we get the LORD’s judgment to “pass over” us?
Answer: We must believe by faith in the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, Yeshua, whose blood was shed on the cross! Then God will give you eternal life!
Did you know that Yeshua was crucified on Passover, and raised from the dead on the Feast of Firstfruits? God has a plan and it is in His calendar!
From the book O Little Tower of Bethlehemfor children and all ages:
“So, you see,” Micah resumes, “the Passover lambs are birthed in this ‘tower of the flock’ and God’s perfect Passover Lamb will be born there, too! The LORD is incredible in His forethought!”
