“The beast that thou sawest…
The seven heads are seven mountains,
on which the woman sitteth.
And there are seven kings:
five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come…
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.”
Revelation 17:8, 9 & 13:11

1st BEAST
Revelation 13 speaks of two beasts: the 1st beast, which arises out of the sea, and the 2nd beast, which arises out of the earth.
.
And as this website amply reveals, the 1st Beast is a composite beast, rising out of the sea (of nations), made up of kings and kingdoms (see Revelation 17:1-12).
.
This 1st beast, with its various kings and kingdoms symbolizes Satan’s antichrist world-system, which this present, fallen world is (including the apostate churches).
.
.
.
.
.
.
2nd BEAST
.
The 2nd Beast, rising up out of the earth (in the wilderness of the New World, America), is named “the False Prophet” (see Revelation 16:13, 19:20, 20:10).
.
Not only did this 2nd Beast, The False Prophet, rise up out of the earth in the sense of rising up in the wilderness of North America, but also in the sense that its vast power & prominence was significantly derived from the goods and inventions which it produced from the earth’s resources, via The Industrial Revolution.
.
But thirdly, this 2nd Beast rose up out of the earth in the sense that America has been greatly focused upon materialism and fleshly lusts.

THE 7 HEADS OF THE 1ST BEAST
.
Now here is where these two beasts of Revelation 13 get even more complicated! You see, the 1st Beast has 7 heads. And this website has revealed what each of these heads represent:
1st: Babylon,
2nd: Medo-Persia,
3rd: Grecia (ancient Greece),
4th: Civil Rome,
5th: Spiritual Rome,
6th: Atheism,
7th: Apostate Protestantism
.

.
2ND BEAST EMERGES AFTER 1ST BEAST RECEIVES A DEADLY WOUND BY A SWORD
.
Now if all this is not complicated enough (sin is always complicated), this antichrist Beast gets even more complicated when it is revealed that the 2nd beast, The False Prophet, is actually comprised of the 6th and 7th heads of the 1st Beast.
.
Yes, when the Papal Church of Rome (5th head) received its deadly wound by a sword (the “sword of the Spirit, the word of God” and through the mass production of Bibles during the Reformation), Satan began a brand-new strategy to destroy the souls of both God’s people, as well as the general populace of the world.

1ST BEAST BRINGS POVERTY/PERSECUTION
.
2ND BEAST, WEALTH/IDLENESS
.
The fact is, that while the 1st Beast employed poverty, famine, Bible-burning, Babylonian-based churches, torture, imprisonment, etc., to oppress the nations of Europe, the 2nd Beast has employed quite the opposite: materialism, opulence, over-abundance, decadence, hedonistic-pleasures, false sciences, false ideologies, many diversions, & attractions, proud, ambitious pursuits.
.
.
.
.
.
PROVERBS 30:8, 9 IS A PROPHECY
.
In other words, just as the Bible reveals…“Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.” Proverbs 30:8, 9
.
Here is the key to understanding the two forms of oppressive warfare employed by that great Dragon, Lucifer, now called The Devil and Satan. Yes, his first form of persecution against God’s people was carried out during The Dark Ages of Europe, via the oppressive church-state system.
.
The second form of persecution has been in the form of the opulence, hedonism, materialism, false-sciences, false-philosophies, apostate-Protestantism, and the vain/greedy/ambitious pursuits.
.
To put each type of oppression carried out by each of these two beasts into a simple, earthly analogy, you could say that there are two ways to kill a mouse: by starvation-to-death, or by over-feeding until they explode.

“For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women (silly churches) laden with sins, led away with divers lusts”
2nd Timothy 3:6
.
For many decades, the Christian nations of Europe and North America have been increasingly “overfed” until the church-world has all but apostatized because of our opulence/decadence/materialism. And Satan used this as an opportunity to creep in, bringing many false doctrines/false teachers into the already lukewarm church-community.
.
Now, having established this fundamental understanding, this article will focus on right-horn/7th-head of antichrist.

7th HEAD (of the 1st beast): APOSTATE PROTESTANTISM
.
RIGHT HORN (of the 2nd beast): CAPITALISM/MORALISM
.
As already revealed, the 6th head and 7th head of the 1st beast corresponds to the left horn and right horn of the 2nd beast, respectively.
.
In other words, the 6th head of the 1st Beast and the left horn of the 2nd beast represent atheism, socialism, and counterfeit compassion, now the conglomerate character of the 2nd beast’s left horn.
.
But the 7th head of the 1st Beast of the right horn combines with the right horn of the 2nd beast representing the apostate-Protestantism, capitalism, and morality, to make the totality of character of the right horn of this False Prophet beast.
.
And so, with this in mind, we begin to see this 2nd beast being fulfilled by the two major political parties. One political party is held up by the pillars of socialism, atheism and their related isms. The other political party being supported by moralism, capitalism, with a thin veneer of Christian religiosity.

And for those who have not yet grasped the complicated information presented here, they are encouraged to keep reading the various articles on www.signsofheaven.org (also known as www.theheavensdeclare.net). There are many related articles which further explain the two beasts of Revelation 13.
.
And armed with such a thorough knowledge of these two beasts, every Soldier of the Cross, can much more easily navigate through this soon-coming Time of Trouble (which has already begun!).

7 HEADS, 10 HORNS, & 7 CROWNS OF THE DRAGON
.
“And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.” Rev. 12:3
.
In Revelation, the Dragon of Revelation 12 is described as having seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns. However, the Dragon Constellation up in the night sky does not. But God has faithfully created the wave of water, in such a way, as to illustrate this same concept of the seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns. Because this wave of water is basically composed of ten stars. The main body of the wave has seven stars (#‘s, 1 thru 7). And the tip of the crest of the wave has the other three stars (#’s, 8, 9 & 10). So we have this 7 and 10 numbering. And this gives us a great clue, as to where in the Bible we should look, to find out the riddle as to just what or who do these 7 heads, 10 crowns, and 7 horns represent. Because, the Bible speaks very much about floods and waters as being associated with Satan (the Dragon).
