Daily Devotional, Year 4 – August 20

.

The False Prophet,

.

Part 33:

“The Right Horn/7th Head of Antichrist: Morality, Counterfeit of Christianity”

To read Part 1 of this series, click here… “JANUARY 26 (The False Prophet, Part 1: Lying Eyes!)”

“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:

.

1: the 1st beast, which arises out of the sea,

.

2: 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, rising in the power & prominence derived 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 hedonistic 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 (Pride)

2nd: Medo-Persia (Greed & Violence)

3rd: Grecia (Self-Focused False Wisdom),

4th: Civil Rome (Totalitarian Justice)

5th: Spiritual Rome (Popish Totalitarianism)

6th: Atheism (Man, the Supreme Being)

7th: Apostate Protestantism (Prosperity-Driven Gospels)

.

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 then 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, false doctrines, 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.
