First Hours After America's Downfall

[truth7t7]

8 hours ago, Luther said:

You quoted: " This (Rev 13:1) beast is a multifaceted prophetic imagery which represents several things throughout history, which are basically 8 nations which have had a direct and specific correlation with the nation of Israel since it birth coming out of Egypt, up to this present end of ages."

Now I agree (to a high degree) with this statement. So who would you consider the final beast ( kingdom) to be? The beast coming out of the earth, the " little horn" ( Daniel 7:8)? 

Revelation 13:11

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

This is the last kingdom which I believe will rule at the very start of the period of Great tribulation. A most powerful world kingdom with Satan and the people who worked with him throughout history to prepare his place of worship. 

Eventually it boils down to two types of people in the final ( spiritual) battle: saved and unsaved. 

Revelation 13:8

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

The imagery, propaganda and special effects will be so captivating, so convincing, that.....

"......there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."

Matthew 24:24

 

I truly believe that those who thought they were going to be " whisked away" as a  " millennial reign"is ushered in will be be very surprised when they remain right here  on earth to witness  the "messiah" they didn't expect and either be written in the Lambs book of life, or , under "strong delusion", worshipping anti- Christ. 

The beast of the "Sea" and the beast of the "Earth" are clearly identified as John's (The Beast) and (The False Prophet) that will be human individual men that will be cast alive into the lake of fire as seen in Revelation 19:20 below, this is in perfect agreement with Daniel's (Little Horn) and his body being given to the burning flame as seen below in Daniel 7:11

Revelation 19:20KJV

20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

Daniel 7:11KJV

11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.

"False"

The (Little Horn) is destroyed at the second coming "final judgement" (The End) as seen below, the verses following are doing nothing more than a recap of events, no time exist beyond the second coming "final judgement" (The End) The Books Are Opened, The Judgement Is Set

It's somewhat amazing how you disregard this fact before your eyes in scripture "Why"? 

Daniel 7:9-11KJV

9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.

10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.

11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.

Just to clarify I did not make that statement. 

I am interested in finding a common understanding with others if possible. I don't refer to any other sources than the Bible. I'm not focusing on literal occurrences either, because many predictions have been made throughout history based on a specific event, and nothing came to pass. 

I'm looking for the spiritual consistency when comparing scripture. In other words, my ( most likely every Christian's) interest is in what is laid out before us in pretty much plain language regarding the sequence of events to occur before the Lord's return. 

However, our interpretation of scripture has everything to do with our position on the end, on how we view the  "millennial reign" of Christ, literally or figuratively. 

When I read about the " little horn", for example, I know that this is anti- Christ during the period of Great tribulation. And the next event to occur is Christ's coming and the end of this world. All of the verses that I examine should have this theme in common. 

The important question I must ask you is: Do you believe that when Jesus Christ comes it will be the end of this world, and the beginning of the new heavens and earth?

First, this little horn’s origin comes from “among them,” the ten, this to me speaks of a nation or empire that will rise up, not only out of the “ten horns,” but in all probability from one in particular. Therefore, it is prudent to stay mindful of how certain distinct attributes from each of those “four great beasts [that] came up from the sea” have also been assigned to the (Eighth, or the) Beast that rises up out of the sea. 

Second observation, notice the “little horn” has “eyes like the eyes of man.” These “eyes of a man” speaks primarily to the lust of the eyes of men, signifying the little horn is never going to be satisfied till all it sees comes under its control and influence. Therefore, he will be cunning, flattering, and given to endless lies, in a vain endeavor to achieve its ambitions. Thus this “little horn” has “a mouth speaking great things,” which also is seen to be associated with the Eighth Beast.

Revelation 13:5 - And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

God has been long-suffering and forbearing with the folly of humanity; permitting many seemingly great things to occur which at the time many perceived and boasted were accomplished through the great wisdom and power possessed by men, only to have it all fall to ruin. All this ultimately permitted in order to prove to the whole of humanity that there is in fact a sovereign God, a Creator before whom all the nations are reckoned to be no greater than mere dust in the scales. For all the souls of such powerful men will still stand before Him to give an accounting and to openly acknowledge that His alone is the Kingdom, the power, and glory forever and ever.

Isaiah 40:15 - Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, He taketh up the isles as a very little thing.

Now, consider how three of the other horns were “plucked up by the roots” by the little horn and reexamine once more the following verses.

Daniel 7:8 - I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things... 11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and he was given to the burning flame.

It is simple American history that originally colonization of America was attempted by three of those ten horns: England, Spain and France. However, all three of these have been “plucked up by the roots” so to say, having lost all sovereign claims to any American soil.

It is evident that it was because of “the great words which the horn spoke” that “the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.” Again, this too can be seen attributed to the Eighth Beast who is destined to be destroyed with fire by the ten horns.

Revelation 17:16 - And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

Revelation 18:8 - Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Daniel in his vision saw both the rise and fall of this “little horn,” which was confirmed to be under the sovereign watch and control of the “Ancient of days.” No earthly or spiritual kingdom, even though they may appear to be running rampant in defiance to God’s great authority, will ever go beyond the wisdom and tolerance of the Lord’s great power and restraint. For His is the power and glory forever.

Daniel 7:9 - I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of His head like the pure wool: His throne was like the fiery flame, and His wheels as burning fire.  10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before Him: and a thousand thousands ministered unto Him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him: then the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: and I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. 12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away [or greatly decreased]: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.

It is important here that we note that the destruction of this “little horn,” which became a great beast and was destroyed by fire, that its destruction does not bring the same timely end to the other horns or “beasts” as we see in the verse above. It is clear, that though they lose some of their power, which was achieved by their temporarily being of “one mind” and thereby having a corporate power through their unity, they are nonetheless permitted to continue on “for a season and time.” This reveals that there is a continuation of national events in the world after the destruction of the “little horn.” 

Revelation 17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. 13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast… 16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. 17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil His will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

 

I am interested in finding a common understanding with others if possible. I don't refer to any other sources than the Bible. I'm not focusing on literal occurrences either, because many predictions have been made throughout history based on a specific event, and nothing came to pass.

"100% Yes"

Jesus returns in fire and final judgement, the heavens and earth are dissolved by the Lords fire (2 Peter 3:10-13) and the New Heavens, Earth, Jerusalem, are revealed for eternity (Revelation 21:1-5)

Yes. I can see two entities at work here. But then we have :

Revelation 13:4

And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

You have (1)Satan ( the dragon) which gives "power" to the (2)beast ( whose deadly wound was healed).

But then in verse 11 you have ANOTHER beast, which comes out of the earth. And I believe the difference between the  "sea" and the  "earth" is something that God wants us to see. ( I need to develop that further before I comment.)

(1) Satan, the dragon, fallen angel

(2) The beast which came out of the  "sea", whom Satan gives him his   "power, and his seat, and great authority" (v 2), whose "deadly wound was healed" (v 3).

I believe this beast is NOT a person, but a   kingdom of people that have worked with Satan since Babylonian times, throughout history, to prepare the world for his short lived reign in Jerusalem.

In order to make Satan's desires possible, this " family ", throughout their generations  have had control of the world's finances and governments, to a high and low degree. Things started to progress very quickly when they began the world banking dynasty in the 18th century. The same "cabal" established the Federal reserve in 1913 which solidified the nations dependency on their control of currency, which in turn controls every institution in the world. 

This " kingdom" is also fulfilling the very essence of Satan with their hidden involvement with the creation of wars, famines, and destruction of morality in our societies. 

Then you have the third beast, which comes from the earth:

(BEAST#2):

Revelation 13:11

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. 

This beast is a PERSON ( or maybe something created for all we know). He is the " little horn". He is the " Eighth".  He is the " man of sin" in 2 Thessalonians. He is the false prophet:

Revelation 16:13:

And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

V.14 is a reference to the period of Great tribulation:

[14]For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

Revelation 13:12

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4,8-10

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

[4]Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

[8]And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

[9]Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

[10]And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

I believe the Fourth beast or kingdom  (Daniel 7)has not yet begun. It will be a kingdom of people, which currently have control of this world, that will intensify their plan almost instantly once Satan is "loosed":

Revelation 20:7-8

".... Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

[8]And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

( Notice the similarity with Revelation 16:14):

For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

And their plan is to have complete rule over us with a set of laws already in the works. The unsaved world will receive their" mark", which is actually a symbol used since Babylon, and it meets the criteria of " Six hundred threescore and six" ( Revelation 13:18). 

................................................

( In summary):

I do believe that the beast with seven heads and ten horns ( Revelation 13:1) is Satan's kingdom throughout history. 

The seventh king ( kingdom, Revelation 17:10) will be the "Great tribulation Kingdom, with the " Eighth" beast an actual person/ entity.

The Great tribulation and the fall of Babylon ( Revelation 18) are one in the same event, and the focus is  spiritual in nature:

Matthew 24:23-24

Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.

[24]For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Revelation 18:2-4

And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

[3]For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

[4]And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Ok. I think I already knew your position. It is not by coincidence that most Christian churches are teaching the false narrative of Dispensationalism. If everyone can have their eyes opened to the fact that the common understanding Christians once had, namely, that National Israel is not part of God's salvation program, we can then start to examine the history of this subversion, and who's behind it. 

It has EVERYTHING to do with the strong delusion of 2 Thessalonians. Satan is already worshiped by the unsaved. The " falling away" is SPIRITUAL apostasy which can only come from those who " physically represent" the body of Christ ( i. e. The church buildings, the physical congregations)

Those truly born again are not taking part in this strong delusion.

Scripture clearly teaches (The Beast) and (The False Prophet) are two individual human men, your teaching that (The Beast) is a people (Roman Catholocism) throughout history is standard reformed eschatology that's wrong

(The Beast) and (The False Prophet) Are "Future" And The False Prophet Will Call Literal Fire Down From Heaven To Deceive The World Into Taking The Mark And Worship The Image "Future"

Revelation 13:13-14KJV

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

The beast of the "Sea" and the beast of the "Earth" are clearly identified as John's (The Beast) and (The False Prophet) that will be human individual men that will be cast alive into the lake of fire as seen in Revelation 19:20 below, this is in perfect agreement with Daniel's (Little Horn) and his body being given to the burning flame as seen below in Daniel 7:11

Revelation 19:20KJV

20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

Daniel 7:11KJV

11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.

The ten horns come from Rome's fall. They are clearly on the head of the 4th beast The other 3 "are fallen" already, and when Rome fall as well, none of them are  around when the ten horns come into being specific historic entities, especially not when the "Little horn" enter into its prophetic significance.

When the Roman Empire fell from its height it divided up into considerably smaller kingdoms which have been reckoned as follows. However, together they help define the expanse to which Rome rose.

1.           The Roman senate. 

2.           The Greeks, in Ravenna. 

3.           The Lombards in Lombardy.

4.           The Huns in Hungary. 

5.           The Alemans, in Germany.

6.           The Franks in France.

7.           The Burgundians in Burgundy.

8.           The Saracens in Africa, and a part of Spain. 

9.           The Goths, in other parts of Spain. 

10.       And the Saxons, in Britain.

I would like to ask you if you had no prior knowledge of any publications on this subject, and using only the Bible, where do you think your conclusions would differ? 

All I mean by this is when well meaning teachers throughout history have made Biblical claims based upon circumstances around them or relying on historical events, they lose their credibility once an event comes to pass or something new occurs that might seem more fitting to prophecy. Do you see what I mean? There's like a million books out there commenting on Revelation. 

Not judging anyone, but I look at Scripture more on the side of spiritual fulfillment, not looking at events per se.
