I think the tares will be gathered first just as it says in Matt. 13- the parable of the wheat and tares. These are the words of Jesus, yet every one completely ignores this end times prophesy. Why?
Hermeneutic fact: 'the sea' living people, the masses This word is commonly used throughout scripture to refer to people. It sure makes a lot more sense too, instead of imagining a Clash of the Titans Kraken-type scenario. The kingdom will rise up from the acceptance and desire of the worldly people who do not look to Christ. People will want this new order and see it as the solution in place of God which is the blasphemy part . In Greek, 'anti-' means 'in place of'. Thus, anti-Christ Instead of, or in place of Jesus Christ. Anything anyone that seeks to deviate from God's provided solution is anti-Christ in nature.
Most of the Christians I know have never read the book out of fear ! Wow I love this book and have been studying and praying since 1980, that 's when l came to know the Truth !
I believe ISIS is the image of the beast or the mark of the beast they have took their stand and shown their mark by creating terror "stating denounce your faith in Jesus and summit to Allah or Islam ". What kind of God would want you to take a bomb and kill yourself and others .Well this little bit of life which we have is short and by following Isis you will be judged and spend eternity in hell forever
Responding to comment from 6.25.2015 ............................ If you read a news article that said the military fired a Missile it I reached an altitude of 10,000 ft. And Then came down on the earth , and military personnel was sent To investigate, what would that say happened to the missile ?
Here is Rev. 13:18: ?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.? Here is the answer: Here is a riddle. Let him that hath the needed wisdom, determine the multitude of the beast for it is a multitude of men, and this multitude is chi xi stigma. 666
Says fire come down from heaven on the earth .Not onto the earth. This causes for deeper prayer waiting or interpretation.any one know? It could be anything but I am sure we will know it when we see it.should be unmistakable. 1
In Revelation13 we 're being warned about the end times,all that is said in the bible it happening now mostly in America,so we seriously need to seek God and not focus on earthly things
Lucille if you read chapter 17 God explains it for us and just to say this Satan isn 't coming just to take 7 nations so it is better to think world. The Mystery is religion. So it 's 10 horns which are kings over the world and the whore is a really fancy religion. The earthly kings first starts the one world system and then Satan brings his kings with him. 2 Corinthians 11 vs 13 to 15 will give you a good idea of how they are transformed meaning disguised.
I think revelations talks about the truth on the coming things so be careful, Those who haven 't turned to GOD better do so because time is running. "MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL. "
i am finding this describing the anti-Christ while claiming it is Jesus Christ. is this book a doctrine of demons? 2 Esdra 13: 25 This is the meaning of the vision: Whereas thou sawest a man coming up from the midst of the sea: 32 then shall my Son be declared, whom thou sawest as a man ascending. 51 Then said I, O Lord that bearest rule, shew me this: Wherefore have I seen the man coming up from the midst of the sea? key words: ascending, and from the sea - - - - 2 Esdra 13: 32 the signs shall happen which I shewed thee before, 50 And then shall he shew them great wonders. key words: signs, wonders - - - - Revelation 17:8 The beast ... shall ascend out of the bottomless pit Revelation 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, - - - - 2 Thessalonians 2 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, - - - - Mark 13:26 26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. Revelation 1:7 7 Behold, he cometh with clouds - - - - the anti-Christ ascends from below up to earth 's surface, and he rises from the sea. Jesus descends from Heaven down to earth 's surface, He comes in the clouds, is seen in the sky not the sea. please do your own study, and pray.
Sand of the sea is not water, but a sea of people. The beast is the Satan-empowered Antichrist. Seven heads and ten horns are the seven empires that have greatly persecuted Israel in the past, with the "ten horns " actually being the seventh head. The "ten horns " are the ten nations that are yet future, and upon his horns ten crowns shows the horns being crowned, are ten nations that have come into power, and will use that power to help the Antichrist They will be located in the Middle East, in parts of Europe and possibly North Africa, all being in the old Roman Empire territory Dan. 7:7-8 , and upon his head the name of blasphemy. Satan controls these Empires, and will control these ten nations, hence the name "blasphemy. " And the beast which I saw represents the fallen Angel who will be let out of the bottomless pit to help the Antichrist Rev. 11:7 both the fallen Angel and the Antichrist are referred to as a beast, but they are two different beings. was like a leopard who will help the Antichrist speedily conquer Dan. 7:6 and his feet were as the feet of a bear characteristics of ancient Medo-Persian Empire, which is ferociousness and his mouth as the mouth of a lion as in the finesse, grandeur and pomp of the Babylonian Empire and the dragon Satan gave him the Antichrist his power, and his seat, and great authority.
My comment is a guess or a sense that Russia is the One who is like the Beast that can wage war with the beast. I will take your comments and thoughts and pray to the Lord for this has been put upon me to search out the matter, Thank you for your research
this chapter is all about the beast and satan. Satan is the one who controls the beast and his image, also Satan is giving them their power and a time of trouble such as never was is going to hit this world , then the Sunday law will be passed, then the MARK OF THE BEAST IS SUNDAY WORSHIP.
There are two beast. One is the dragon Satan himself coming to earth for the time period of the locust is 5 months and Satan himself will be here for half of that. Beast two is the mystery whore wihich is a religion that rises up from the people. Don 't look in the past for answers to the Revelation because it is what will occur in the future.
The beast having a wounded head was popal roman empire 538 to1798 ad image of beast is the recovered pope power that lost in 1798 ad .one recovering this is usa by the force of all christian churches
Satan as antichrist which means instead of Christ destroys wonderfully with peace and flatteries. Prosperously he takes care of everyone as he comes to power acting like the Lamb but he is the dragon buying souls to take with him into the fire and if your wise you won 't get caught worshipping him. And that 's when you don 't want to try to convert them that chase after him because they believe he is Christ so just stay out of it and wait for the true Christ.
I think it 's interesting how man extols the war making prowess of the anti- Christ. Man still clamors for a war making god, a god that will punish his enemies wonderfully. There is no understanding or forgiveness in humans.
As we Christians understand, this passage concerns very difficult times that will come about to the point that many will contemplate taking up arms or joining in some fight, perhaps in self defense. Because Christians true are not allowed to kill anyone or join any pagan army and so far there has not yet ever been a Christian country on Earth that we know of , it will indeed be a test of their faith and endurance.
REV 13-21...People, you take to lightly the warnings from the 22nd chapter about adding or taking away from the words of this book, The Holy Spirit gave this book, or possibly the whole Bible a special warning for those who think they can calculate the deep meaning prophesies that are written here in this book, but God has his own clause added for those that think they have the understanding, For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. I would repent of the foolishness before its to late. PRAISE THE GOD OF THE UNIVERSE PRAISE HIS HOLY WORD FOR WITHOUT THEM THEIR WOULD BE NO EXISTENCE, PRAISE THEM. AMEN!!
When the elect are delivered up the Holy Spirit will speak through them. Satan is death and family members will turn their loved ones over to him because they think he is Jesus. These chosen from the foundation as they stand will turn many away from worshipping antichrist and from hearing the elect will wait for the true Christ.
well like it states in the whole book of revelation ,not to either add or take away from this book. Its inspiration come from the spirit. I not dare try to make something up , isn 't that what penticost was about the promise for spirit to be poured into the world ,also need jesus words only was worthy to open .
This starts out with Satan and his 10 horns kings he brings with him. He rises from the sea which means people. We know he does this with peace and flattering. We know from the first Seal that he comes as a king crowned and bow that are fake but look real to the world. Also in another Seal he brings with him Hell which means his fallen angels and the 10 are there. Might not show until he wants them. He heals a deadly political wound. 10 earthly kings have came together politically to do something and one pulls out, then the false Christ which is Satan heals it. Most likely something to bring in the one world system.
