Who is beast in revelation?

Answer 1

there are 2 beasts. The one that comes up from the sea is Rome and the one that comes up from the land is USA. You can find evidence of this in Revelations and Daniel

lolwut? the USA?

The beast from the sea is the anti-christ with seven heads and ten horns.

The beast from the land acts on behalf of the beast from the sea and makes the people create a statue in the first beast's image. The first beast then brings the image to life and through it speaks and kills all who do not worship the first beast. The image of the first beast is also referred to as the false prophet.

Answer 2

the beast that comes up from the sea is Rome and the beast that comes up from land is USA

The Beast of the Revelation is not the U.S.A. What would make anyone think that one of the most Godly countries on earth would be the Beast. We are the only country that has "In God We Trust" on our currency. The "Sea" represents the masses of the people of the earth. It doesn't take any scholar of The Bible long before he can figure that one out. The Beast is the creation of the One World Order. A student of the book of Daniel can quickly ascertain this. The other "Beasts" were world empires, just as this one will be. But if you go to Dan. 11:30 you will see the "ships of Chittim", (Chittim means "Bruisers") shall come against "Him". "Him" being the Anti-Christ. The "Against" is not a physical war. The war of the end times is a spiritual war, not a physical one. When you read Revelations read it spiritually, not physically, with the exception of the Viles which will be very literal. The Anti-Christ is Satan himself when he is cast out of heaven (Rev.12:9 and not some falsely portrayal as generally shown on TV. He is not the Pope, some E.C.U. Leader, or other lame idea. He will be the most handsome man you have ever seen. See Ezk. Chpt.38 for conformation. This with his portrayal of himself as Jesus will cause the deception to be universally accepted.

Answer 3

Im assuming you are referring to this one:

Revelation 13:2

The Beast out of the Sea

this answer comes from the Amazing Facts study guide

We notice these characteristics about the beast:

1. Rises from sea

-the sea, or water, in prophecy means people

2. made up of 4 beasts

-Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome

3. Dragon gives it power and authority

-the dragon is Satan.

4. gets deadly wound

-the deadly wound was given when Napoleon's general, Alexander Berthier, entered Rome and took Pope Pius VI captive in Feb 1798, where he later died.

5. deadly wound is healed

-the Papacy was wounded by the death of the Pope, but has since grown and increased into one of todays most powerful religio-political organizations and influences on the world.

6. strong political power

-see above

7. strong religious power

-see above

8. guilty of blasphemey

-the papacy is guilty of blasphemey because her priests claim to forgive sins and her popes claim to be Christ (anointed = christ)

9. wars with and overcomes the saints

-the papacy did persecute and destroy millions of saints during the dark ages

10. rules for 42 months

-the papacy reigned for 42 prophetic months, which eqauls 1260 years (from AD 538 - 1798)

11. has mysterious number 666

-"it is the number of a man" = the popes official name is "vicarius filii dei", which, when given roman numeral values, equals to 666. this name means "vicar of the son of God"

so, hope this is clear. The answer is THE PAPACY....scary huh? if you need more proof, please check out www.amazingfacts.org

They are figurative expressions, used by the Revelator, John, in describing heaven, the paradise of God, the happyness of man, and of beasts, and of creeping things, and of the fowls of the air; that which is spiritual being in the likeness of that which is temporal; and that which is temporal in the likeness of that which is spiritual; the spirt of man in the likeness of his person, as also the spirit of the , and every other creature which God has created.

---------------

Rev 12 Dragon ( 7 heads with crowns,10 horns) - Physical image = UN - Rules ( individual & bloc voting) in the 1st approx 3 1/2 years (1260 days) of the 7 year tribulation.Spiritually = Satan.

Rev 13 Beast 1 - ( 7 heads, 10 horns with crowns) - Physical image of the beast = New World Order (one world government) with 10 global ruling divisions.Rules in the 2nd 3 1/2 years

( 42 months) of the 7 year tribulation.Spiritually = beast spirit from the pit inhabits NWO.

Rev 13 Beast 2 - Physical image of the beast = the corporate worldwide body of leaders(group of people, not a single man) at the head of global apostate Christianity.In a larger type, the corporate global leadership of all religion including apostate Christianity being formed into the United Religions (UR) as a part of the UN.To parallel, in Jesus day,the Sanhedrin was the corporate false prophet at the head of apostate Judaism.Spiritually = False prophet spirit from the pit inhabiting this apostate leadership of today's worldwide largely apostate Church and false religion to produce false signs and wonders to deceive.The signs/evidence of this false prophet spirit can be seen today in churches and false revivals.This false prophet spirit will fully manifest physically during the middle of the 7 year tribulation.Only a relatively small portion of global Christianity is following the Jesus of the bible.They are seeing,hearing and doing as Jesus said and did in the New Testament..Much of the worldwide church is following another Jesus and are being deceived.

Rev 12 Man/Male Child = The Jesus ministry in the Revelation 7 year tribulation.1st 3 1/2 years.Jesus manifested fully in a group of saints (mature Christians) all over the world who will teach and do as Jesus did in the Gospels.They will teach saints the pure word of God and then send a corporate group( not just two men) of two witnesses to spread the gospel all over the globe.The worldwide apostate church will fight against this move of the Spirit just like apostate Judaism (Pharisees,Saduccees,etc) warred against Jesus, the early disciples and the churches in the book of Acts.Apostate Christianity will not recognize Jesus in his end time corporate man child ministry and fight against this move, just as apostate Judaism did not recognize Jesus in his day.History always repeats.There is nothing new under the sun.Ecc 1: 9.

Answer 4

Revelation chapter 13 verse 1 and 2

And I saw a wild beast ascending

out of the sea, with

ten horns and seven heads, and

upon its horns ten diadems, but

upon its heads blasphemous

names. 2 Now the wild beast

that I saw was like a leopard,

but its feet were as those of a bear,

and its mouth was as

a lion's mouth. And the dragon

gave to the beast its power and

its throne and great authority.

Cross referencing this with other scriptures, such as Daniel 7:17 this beast seems to represent political powers on the earth.

Revelation 16:13 And I saw three unclean

inspired expressions that

looked like frogs come out of the

mouth of the dragon and out

of the mouth of the wild beast

and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

The false prophet, is indicated to be false religion, which supports world governments.
