Revelation 13:11
11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon.
Another beast arises out of the earth. The first beast arose out of the sea (sea = multitudes or a populated area (Europe)) The second beast comes up out of the earth (earth = less populated area (Not Europe)). This beast has 2 horns like a lamb. The characteristics of the beast represents the characteristics of the naton. It has horns like a lamb which represents a "peaceful" nation but speaks like a dragon. A dragon is very different from the appearance of the lamb. It has the external appearance of being peaceful but the internal isn't peaceful. Who represents a dragon in the bible? Satan which means this nation will appear peaceful but be controlled by satan.
Daniel 7:17 & 23
17 ‘These great beasts, which are four in number, are four kings who will arise from the earth. 23 “Thus he said: ‘The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth...
A beast in bible prophecy represents a kingdom. If a beast arises out of the earth, then it means that another kingdom will arise out of a part of the world that wasn't populated.
Revelation 13:12
12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
Who is the first beast? The papacy power which is a religious power. The first beast had the power to enforce religious teachings. The next beast will have the same power as the first beast. It will use this power to make the the earth and all people worship the first beast.
Revelation 13:13
13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men.
Calls down fire.
Revelation 13:14
14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who had the wound of the sword and has come to life.
Have an image of the beast worshipped. The image of the beast means a system of power that is similar to the first beast. A combination of church and state.
Revelation 13:15
15 And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even speak and cause as many as do not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
The image of the beast is the reunification of church and state where the church controls the state not the state controlling the church.
Revelation 13:16-17
16 And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, [a]to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, 17 and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.
This union of church and state will force all to recieve a mark on their forehead or their hand. Forehead - concious decision, hand - will to follow.
Revelation 16:13-14
13 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; 14 for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God, the Almighty.
What is a prophet? They may make predictions about the future, they were a special messenger, there are both true and false prophets, and have a sense of authority. If from God good, if from satan evil.
Amos 3:7
7 Surely the Lord [b]God does nothing Unless He reveals His secret counsel To His servants the prophets.
God would send a prophet with a message before something major would happen. When someone comes as a prophet, he was coming to men with a message from God. A prophet is a spokesperson for God. So a false prophet would be someone claiming to be a spokesperson for God but they are not.
Revelation 19:20
20 And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.
The false prophet isn't mentioned very often and there are only 3 verses that the False Prophet is even mentioned. This describes a gruesome scene in which it explains what happens to the wicked. It can be noticed that the False Prophet performs signs and miracles. The purpose of this is to deceive people into believing he is from God in order to decieve them. Miracles in the last days cannot be trusted in the last days of being from God.
Revelation 13:13-14
13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men. 14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who had the wound of the sword and has come to life.
The first half of this chapter covers the first beast which is the Papacy. The next beast comes up out of the earth or from and unpopulated area. This second beast is the USA. The second bease would excercise the power of the first beast and then in verse 13 & 14, it says that this beast would do great wonders. This description matches the properties or characteristics of what the false prohet will do. The False Prophet represents false leaders in America that will do miracles to decieve the world.
Isaiah 8:20
20 To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because they have no dawn.
This means that if a speaker doesn't speak to the word of God and align with the word of God, then no light is in him.
John 17:3
3 This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
This is what eternal life is: TO KNOW JESUS
