Who is The Dragon, The Beast and The False Prophet of Revelation 13
We are going to go through Revelation chapter 13: the dragon, the beast (who is the antichrist), and the false prophet. We are going to discuss who they are, what they are globally, what it looks like in today's world, and what we are moving toward. We will also look at the application of this in modern times. Although this was written thousands of years ago, John saw thousands of years ahead. He was banished to the island of Patmos, and the Lord showed him the times we are living in now and times still yet to come.
I find that people tend to be afraid of the book of Revelation. People tend to get uneasy about reading it, and we shouldn't. It is the only book in the Bible that says that the reader will receive a blessing for reading it. Even though the whole Bible is a blessing, it specifically states that you will receive a blessing for reading the book and wanting to understand what is in the book. There's so much hidden in the book of Revelation that I believe we have yet to uncover within the scriptures.
In Revelation chapter 13, this unholy trinity is raised up. I want to get into this prophetically. There are some amazing things I'm going to show you when it comes to foreshadowing of what is to come, how it is coming into modern day, and what it looks like.
Revelation 12 introduces the dragon, but Revelation 13 introduces the beast and the false prophet. This is a counterfeit trinity. The enemy attempts to counterfeit what the Lord does. The enemy attempts to counterfeit because the enemy cannot create, he can only manipulate what already exists. He does this with God's word too.
The Holy Trinity in Heaven is the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, who said let us make man in our own image. There must be similar that rises up from the kingdom of darkness to make a counterfeit trinity of sorts to attempt to rule over a good part of the earth. This counterfeit trinity will attempt to commit a hostile takeover of the earth. Revelation 14 introduces the lamb. So, John makes a stark contrast between the two kingdoms, between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness.
In Revelation 12, the dragon is identified as Satan. Now, Satan cannot destroy Christ. Instead, he attempts to counterfeit Him to cause people on earth to worship a false christ to try to give them false salvation. He does this in order to try to steal souls from the kingdom of God.
Revelation 13:1
And the [a]dragon (Satan) stood on the sandy shore of the sea. Then I saw a [vicious] beast coming up out of the sea with ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten royal [b]crowns (diadems), and on his heads were blasphemous names.
That's the imagery that is introduced to us at the beginning of this chapter. In a way, the sea represents the nations. The beast is rising up from the nations of the earth. That is what's happening. This is an ascension out of the nations of the earth. Remember, the enemy counterfeits what God creates. That is why this is attributed to the waters or the sea, that he's standing by the waters and we're watching a beast called up out of the waters. If you go to Genesis 1:2, there's something interesting for us to take note of.
Genesis 1:2
The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters. As the Lord is creating His spirit is hovering over the waters.
As the Lord is creating, His spirit is hovering over the waters. In Revelation, we see a beast rise and ascend out of the sea.
Job 41:34
He looks on everything that is high [without terror];
He is monarch over all the sons of pride.
A monarch wears a crown. The antichrist will be the most pride-filled individual that ever lived, because Satan himself has inhabited him.
Isaiah 27:1
In that day the Lord will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent
With His fierce and great and mighty sword [rescuing Israel from her enemy], Even Leviathan the twisted serpent; And He will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.
The dragon is who raises up this ten-crowned, seven-headed beast out of the sea. The sea is the dwelling place of Leviathan, the monarch of the sons of pride. In a way, Leviathan and the dragon are partners. They're working for the same cause. The imagery is interesting by what's spoken about in Job and Isaiah of Leviathan, and then what's spoken about of the dragon that's going to bring a beast up out of the sea.
Revelation 13:2
And the beast that I saw resembled a [c]leopard, but his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth was like that of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority.
The beast resembles a leopard, a bear, and a lion. That is the order in Revelation 13:2. This is backwards from the Book of Daniel.
Daniel 7:4-7
4The first (the Babylonian Empire under Nebuchadnezzar) was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man; a human mind was given to it. 5 And behold, another beast, a second one (the Medo-Persian Empire), was like a bear, and it was raised up on one side (domain), and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth; and it was told, ‘Arise, devour much meat.’ 6 After this I kept looking, and behold, another one (the Greek Empire of Alexander the Great), like a leopard, which had on its back four wings like those of a bird; the beast also had four heads (Alexander’s generals, his successors), and power to rule was given to it. 7 After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, [I saw] a fourth beast (the Roman Empire), terrible and extremely strong; and it had huge iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down what was left with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that came before it, and it had ten horns (ten kings).
10 horns in a way can represent 10 kings. What is fascinating is that John is looking at it one way and Daniel is looking at it the other way. They're seeing similar things, but they're looking at them in a different order. Daniel 7:4 has the imagery of the formation of America. I'm not saying that who they are talking about is America, but the imagery of how America was formed is there. The lion had wings like an eagle. England's symbol is the lion. The wings of the eagle were taken from the lion, and it was lifted up and made to stand on the ground like a man.
In 1774, significant events included the First Continental Congress convening in response to the Intolerable Acts, where delegates from twelve colonies gathered to organize colonial resistance against British rule. In 1774 they started organizing the resistance to England. America's symbol is the eagle. England is the lion. They were separated during the Revolutionary War. The lion and the eagle are separated and then was taken, and men then formed the government of America.
The imagery is there because Daniel is talking about Babylon, which is interesting because America has been equated to Babylon in many ways. What is happening is that Daniel is looking forward through history into the future. John is seeing heaven's perspective looking back and the collective culmination of the empires that are being discussed.
Daniel saw:
Babylon → Medo-Persia → Greece → Rome. That's the order in which Daniel saw it. He saw the lion with the wings of the eagle (Babylon), then he saw the bear (the Medo-Persian Empire) with the three ribs between its teeth. He kept looking and he saw a leopard which had four wings like those of a bird on its back (that was the Greek Empire), and then the last one that he spoke about was the Roman Empire.
In Revelation, John sees the final empire incorporating the characteristics of all the previous empires. This will create the ultimate empire. The enemy will take the most defining characteristics from each one of these empires to raise up a super empire that is far more wicked than any of its predecessors. The enemy is doing this for dominance.
As Daniel is seeing Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome; John is seeing Rome, Greece, Medo-Persia, and Babylon. When it comes to Babylon and these other empires, they have certain characteristics. Babylon's arrogance was one of its greatest characteristics, their sheer human pride and defiance against God. Babylon is the epitome of rebellion, and it is the devil himself who leads the greatest rebellion at the end. Persia is one of the other empires and the stabilizing force is their administrative power. It was orderly and provided great political and financial support. The empire and its leaders knew how to fund their activities. Remember, Persia is Iran. I find interesting that when it comes to Persia (Iran), the funding of their activities is currently being pinched shut in this conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran. One of Persia's defining characteristics when it ruled as an empire was its ability to fund its activities. Next, there is Greece. What is taken from Greece is their cultural influence that socially led many astray into the immoral and lowered the threshold of the conscience to engage in immoral activities without penalty. Greece promoted a do what thou will agenda. In Greece, there was perverse practices that were encouraged. There were occultic practices that were encouraged and individualism and materialism were highly promoted. Finally, there was Rome. Rome had military strength. Rome had no mercy and they were vicious. It was during the time of the Roman Empire that Jesus Christ himself was crucified. They were a dominant, dreadful, and highly pagan people. Some of these other empires were more negotiators, they did military conquests, but they liked to negotiate to try to get their way. Rome didn't want to negotiate. Rome wanted to come, subdue, conquer, destroy, and take over.
The final world system that is described in Revelation 13 and in Daniel 7, rises out of the culmination of these previous rebellious empires in order to make a super empire to attempt to dominate the entire earth. This is a complete mutation of an empire that the world has not yet seen. What we have seen thus far is bits and pieces of it over time, but it will eventually come together into a super empire. It will be the most wicked of the wicked, and the most dominant of the dominant. All these characteristics are coming together in order to mutate, form, and birth what's spoken about in Revelation 13.
Revelation 13:2-5
And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of his heads which seemed to have a fatal wound, but his fatal wound was healed; and the entire earth followed after the beast in amazement. 4 They fell down and worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; they also worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like (as great as) the beast, and who is able to wage war against him? And the beast was given a mouth (the power of speech), uttering great things and arrogant and blasphemous words, and he was given freedom and authority to act and to do as he pleased for [d]forty-two months (three and a half years).
The dragon gave him his power. This is the astonishing part where we see Satan attempting to structure his kingdom on earth the way that Almighty God has structured the kingdom of Heaven. Satan is trying to copy the blueprint of how he saw the kingdom of heaven structured when he was an archangel in heaven.
The Father gives authority to the Son. Almighty God gives all power and authority to Jesus Christ, who was the Lamb who was slain before the foundations of the earth were ever mad and He overcame the world. Satan gives his authority to the beast. The beast is begotten of Satan in the way the Son is begotten of the Father.
There is a legal transfer of power because Satan is attempting to structure his empire to bring forth his own Messiah. He is attempting to bring forth the power that the Kingdom of Heaven has. Although he may try to counterfeit, he will never be able to completely align a blueprint, align an army, and align a plan to totally become like the Kingdom of Heaven. There is a legal transfer of power that happens. Everything here imitates God and His order, except Satan is the epitome of evil darkness, rebellion, pride, blasphemous things. Because of that, his order is corrupted, wicked, and unstable. It cannot sustain long-term no matter how much he tries.
Notice the parallel to the Trinity. Father, Son, Holy Spirit. They're three, but they're one. There are parallels here to this. The Father gives his power to Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. The Dragon gives his power to the beast, who is meant to be a centralized figure of worship and salvation, who counterfeits a resurrection and seemingly comes back to life. Finally, there is the Holy Spirit who is the counselor, the Ruach Hakodesh. He intercedes before the Father on our behalf. The Holy Spirit compels us towards Jesus Christ. In Satan's counterfeit trinity and hierarchy, this figure would be the false prophet who counsels and leads man to worship the beast and compels humanity through a dark deceiving power that parades and leads people to a false salvation. So as the Holy Spirit counsels us into a relationship with Almighty God through Jesus Christ, the false prophet is counseling humanity into a relationship with the dragon through the beast.
The enemy is trying to mirror the Trinity with this alignment that he is creating. Jesus receives authority from the Father. The beast receives authority from the dragon, who is Satan. Jesus Christ takes the authority that he received from the Father, and says, behold, I have given unto you authority to trample upon serpents and scorpions and against all the power of the enemy, so nothing shall by any means hurt you. Humanity now is in a covenant to trample upon serpents and scorpions and against all the power of the enemy. However, when the dragon gives the beast authority, that authority is then taken to trample upon anyone who will not worship him. He's not giving authority to man in order to free them and bring them into a relationship with Almighty God. He's actually taking that authority to trample upon everyone who will not worship him.
Jesus Christ performs Signs and wonders. Scripture is filled with Christ doing signs and wonders, healings, miracles, raising the dead, healing the sick, and resurrecting Himself from the dead to cause people to believe He is the Messiah. He is truly the Son of God. The false prophet will perform signs and wonders to lead people to believe the beast is salvation. As Jesus Christ receives worship, the beast must receive worship (to align the counterfeit).
On top of it, the Holy Spirit points people toward Jesus Christ and coming into a covenant relationship with Almighty God through Jesus Satan cannot create, he can only counterfeit what already is. He perverts the structure to produce darkness, deception, enslavement, and destruction. This is because the thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy.
John 10:10
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].
Revelation 13:3
I saw one of his heads which seemed to have a fatal wound, but his fatal wound was healed; and the entire earth followed after the beast in amazement.
Whether this is a literal assassination where the chance of survival is deemed nil, a symbolic resurrection, or an actual resurrection (where the beast literally dies, is pronounced dead and comes back to life), it functions as a parallel to Jesus Christ's death and resurrection. It is meant to completely mirror His death and resurrection. Christ died as a sacrifice. Some might even call Him a martyr because He was killed for His faith. He was killed for what He believed. He was killed because He was compelling people into a relationship with Almighty God. Who Jesus was, interfered in the business of the Pharisees. If this counterfeit is going to be masterful, this beast will have to be killed connected to a faith, connected to a religious belief, and connected to compelling the people to believe in a certain direction. Remember, this antichrist is the most detailed counterfeit he's ever going to make and that beast has a whole system supporting and feeding it.
Genesis 3:15
And I will put enmity (open hostility) between you and the woman, and between your seed (offspring) and her [a]Seed; He shall [fatally] bruise your head, and you shall [only] bruise His heel.”
This scripture is talking about the death of Christ. In a way, the enemy is attempting to recreate the prophecy of Genesis 3:15. It is in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible, in which the Jews religiously follow. In order to deceive the firstborn of Almighty God (the Jews), he will have to recreate events that match scripture. He will have to do this just close enough so that it's believable.
It is the same process when a $100 bill is counterfeited. When someone who knows how to counterfeit money counterfeits a $100 bill, they do it by counterfeiting the details. They start to put in details that would be seen on a real dollar bill. It takes a trained eye of someone that is trained in seeing into the little details, who is able to spot the nuances, to spot that it's a counterfeit.
This is the process that the enemy is going through to counterfeit the beast. He will do it so that it matches scripture. How else will he be able to get Jew and Muslim to bow to one beast (one antichrist) when they have been fighting since Isaac and Ishmael? It must match the religious context of their scriptures. Satan knows the Word and he manipulates events to attempt to mold them to the Word, to deceive covenant people into believing what is false. This then brings them into idolatry and a blasphemous covenant with him and an unholy trinity that he has created.
Revelation 13:4
They fell down and worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; they also worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like (as great as) the beast, and who is able to wage war against him?
The world says, "Who is like unto the beast?" This echoes Old Testament worship of the Lord, because the enemy's going to counterfeit it.
Exodus 15:11
Who is like You among the gods, O Lord? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, Awesome in splendor, working wonders?
Psalm 89:8
O Lord God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty Lord? Your faithfulness also surrounds You.
Psalm 113:5
Who is like the Lord our God, who is enthroned on high, who is like the Lord?
Humanity says, who is like the beast? Satan wants redirected worship and man's allegiance, which is a rejection of the Creator (Almighty God) who created them. Satan wants the creation to reject its Creator and treat Satan as if he is the creator, as if he is the salvation, and as if he is the only way, the truth, and the life. This is because Christ himself said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but through me.
Satan is attempting to open up a secondary door and he's selling it to the earth that there's another way to get to the Father. However, that is the road to hell. He is doing this because he has to counterfeit it. From the beginning in the garden, Satan has desperately wanted to be like God.
Genesis 3:4
But the serpent said to the woman, “You certainly will not die! 5 For God knows that on the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened [that is, you will have greater awareness], and you will be like God, knowing [the difference between] good and evil.”
The enemy can only attempt to create the illusion of being like God. He can never be God. No one can ever get close to be Almighty God, and that is what the devil hates because he will never become that. Remember, he is a created being himself. A created being wants another created being to worship him as if he is the creator. The enemy is after the catastrophic fall of man and to negate the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. He wants to replace that whole system of salvation and redemption with deception and chains.
Revelation 13:6
And he opened his mouth to speak blasphemies (abusive speech, slander) against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, and those who live in heaven.
In verse six, the beast blasphemes the name of God, his tabernacle, and those who live in Heaven. So, the beast attacks God (His name, His character, and His very nature) in three ways. The beast must attack God's name first in order to defame His character and deceive people into believing God is not who He says He is. This very tactic is employed throughout all the media today to discredit. The name is always attacked first.
Next, he will attack His dwelling place where His presence comes to be with His people. The tabernacle represents the church, the house of God. In order for the beast to lure people to worship him as god in his temple that he has erected, he must deceive them into believing the tabernacle is not where God dwells.
The third way that the beast will attack is His people, those who have been in covenant with him. The beast must deceive people into swearing their allegiance to him, if he is going to gain power within the earth.
Every dictator that has risen throughout history has employed similar methods to take over nations and to deceive the people. It's the same spirit of antichrist and lawlessness that now becomes the most potent in the end. It becomes the strongest, the most powerful, and the most insatiable. They come in looking like a savior, like a gift, they have the solutions to everyone's problems, and then once the keys of power have been handed over, they turn into the monsters that they always were, like a switch being flipped.
The beast is the ultimate Trojan horse. Now, what's interesting about that, is that Mamdani has been called the Trojan horse. He has the character and profile of one that operates in the spirit of antichrist. The beast will be far worse than him. He's a dress rehearsal. He's a warning. He is a blueprint of what is to come. This fulfills what Paul says in 2 Thessalonians 2, The "man of lawlessness" exalts himself above every object of worship. He has to be established as supreme to get peoples from many nations religions to forsake their gods and worship the beast as being above them all.
Revelation 13:7
He was also [e]permitted to wage war against the saints (God’s people) and to overcome them, and authority and power over every tribe and people and language and nation.
The beast persecutes believers. Something very important to notice is that victory appears temporarily. God allows persecution. In fact, the church has been persecuted since its inception in the book of Acts. If we look back further into the Old Testament, David and King Saul were a foreshadowing of the people of God being persecuted by the Antichrist.
Saul had abandoned God's ways. He sought the dark arts for power; he established himself as supreme. David was in covenant with the Lord and because of that, Saul hunted David down to keep him from his inheritance in the Lord, which was the kingdom. It was the same thing with Haman and the people of God in the book of Esther. Haman is an antichrist type figure.
When John says he was permitted to wage war against the saints, to overcome them, and was given authority and power over every tribe, people, language, and nation; John's perspective of the entire earth at that moment consisted of Europe, Asia, and Africa. John's concept of the entire earth and the Middle East consisted of those areas. To John's knowledge, that was the entire earth. We must take that into account. I do not believe that that's all the Antichrist will rule over, but there is an army that will rise up to oppose him.
The beast conquers physically; he can never conquer spiritually. He can never break the spiritual threshold where he legally takes over the kingdom of God. He may have a centralized physical kingdom within the earth, but he can never go beyond the threshold of that no matter how much he gives the illusion of that happening.
Revelation 13:8
All the inhabitants of the earth will fall down and worship him, everyone whose name has not been written since the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb who has been slain [as a willing sacrifice].
All the inhabitants of the earth will fall down and worship him. Everyone whose name has not been written in the Lamb's Book of Life. This is why we need a covenant relationship with Christ Jesus because it seals us, it marks us, and it protects us. Everybody whose name is not written in the Book of Life will come under such a great delusion that they will automatically fall down and worship the beast.
Notice the dividing line is not politics. The dividing line is not nationality and it's not wealth. It's something that the enemy has desired since the Garden of Eden and the catastrophic fall of man. It is allegiance. It's a matter of the mind and soul coming into covenant with the beast.
God gave man the gift of free will and the enemy coerces man to give it to him, who then enslaves man. The devil then marks them with a mark that cannot be undone. This has been a battle since the Garden of Eden, since man was created. The enemies desire to steal that allegiance. There's a second beast that arises in Revelation 13:11.
Revelation 13:9-11
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 If anyone is destined for captivity, he will go into captivity; if anyone kills with a sword, he must be killed with a sword. Here is [the call for] the patient endurance and the faithfulness of the saints [which is seen in the response of God’s people to difficult times].11 Then I saw [f]another beast rising up out of the earth; he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke like a dragon.
Now, if we look at these scriptures (9-11) and we look at the description, we have the precursor that we see in individuals right now who are in politics and who are positioned globally, including Zohran Mamdani. I say this so that you can see that we have a character profile. Horns like a lamb tells us that it's a young male. A lamb is not an adult, mature sheep. A lamb is a young male, because it states that it will have horns like a lamb. Female sheep don't have horns. Only males have horns. In fact, they get their horns when they are young adult males. What is described here is an unaltered young male (young adult) I would say 20s or 30s.
Jesus Christ was called the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. He died at the age of 33. He was 30 years old when John the Baptist said, Behold the Lamb of God, because he is describing a young man. Now, John is seeing another lamb with horns. He looks like that, but speaks like a dragon. The description is telling us this is going to be a young, charismatic man, the false prophet. The false prophet will not be an older man. Remember, he's got to counterfeit the scriptures and when Jesus was called the Lamb of God, He was 30 years old.
If we look at the parallel out of New York City, that is the foreshadowing. I'm not saying Zohran Mamdani is this counterfeit false prophet. I am saying that there's a foreshadowing there, a young charismatic man in his 30s that has all these ideas, that comes in wanting to be the savior. This is how you're going to see this system enter. There will always be a foreshadowing that arises first before the false prophet of Revelation comes on the scene.
You are going to see people with similar characteristics foreshadowing the coming of the false prophet, of the beast. You're going to see the foreshadowing first, which are the rumblings before the earthquake. And this one comes from the earth, so it is flesh and blood. The false prophet is flesh and blood. It says, then I saw another beast rising up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon. He looks like a lamb, but he speaks like a dragon. Remember, the dragon is lending his power, so the false prophet is going to sound like who his power is spiritually coming from. That's why he speaks like a dragon. Jesus Christ sounded like the Father, because that is who his power came from.
This deception is well crafted, well structured, theologically thought out, politically thought out, spiritually thought out, and financially thought-out deception. It gives the appearance of Christ, coming in looking like a champion, coming in looking like a savior, but the voice and the breath is Satan. He is made to look like a savior, but the soul is Satan. The will is Satan.
Kim Clement said, “The words may be right, but the breath is wrong”. These words are so true for the false prophet of Revelation 13. The source for which those words come is corrupt and it embodies the false prophet of Revelation 13. Jesus warned repeatedly about false prophets who appear harmless but are inwardly deceive. Inwardly they are predators who are not seeking to lead people to Christ, to repentance, and to true redemption through Christ. They are the announcer of the way of the beast and the dragon. They carry about the enemy's business. Christ was about His Father's business.
Later on in this chapter, Revelation does identify the lamb with the two horns and speaks like a dragon as the false prophet. His job is not political, although he will intertwine himself with the political. He helps create a worldwide worship movement, centered on the first beast to add to this great deception. The beast is the supreme divine being who the dragon has begotten, who the dragon has given his power to. This means the false prophet is going to have to use language that is similar enough to deceive the religious into submission. He's going to have to speak their language, and he's going to do it in a very charismatic way with conviction and with passion. His words, speech, and thoughts are going to leave people awestruck in order to lure them into a covenant with the dragon through the beast.
Revelation 13:13
He performs great signs (awe-inspiring acts), even making fire fall from the sky to the earth, right before peoples’ eyes. 14 And he deceives those [unconverted ones] who inhabit the earth [into believing him] because of the signs which he is given [by Satan] to perform in the presence of the [first] beast, telling those who inhabit the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded [fatally] by the sword and has come back to life.
The false prophet is the greatest PR machine that will ever be seen. He calls fire from heaven just like Elijah. Fire came down from heaven in the presence of Elijah and 850 prophets of Baal, Ashtoreth. and the people of the kingdom to demonstrate to them that beyond a doubt the Lord God Almighty, is God. Baal couldn't call fire down. Elijah was able to call fire down to consume the sacrifice and get all the water in the trench licked up because it demonstrated to the people that the Lord Almighty is God. Fire was called down to cause the people to stop faltering between two opinions. It was something that they have never seen any prophet of Baal or Ashtoreth do.
The false prophet is doing the same. The key word here is performing. He is performing these acts to demonstrate that the beast is all powerful above all other gods. He's performing these acts, he's calling down fire, and he's doing these things to prove who the beast has been presented to be to the earth. This is how the enemy aligns events with scripture to deceive the religious.
The religious may know scripture, but they're deafened to the voice of the Holy Spirit. You see, Revelation is filled with the enemy's greatest counterfeits that he will ever produce. It is a trophy case. What we've seen with dictators throughout history are his warm-up, his experiments to see what works and what doesn't.
Remember the two witnesses in Revelation 11, fire comes from them as well. They come and preach against what's happening within the earth. This miracle intentionally mimics God's authentic acts, and once again, the source is highly contaminated. The source is darkness. It is hell parading as light, combined with a false authority that has been given onto him by the dragon (Satan). Scripture consistently warns that the miraculous signs alone are not proof that a message and the messenger speak for God. The litmus test to know if the person has been sent by God, is when they point back to being in relationship with Jesus Christ. Knowing that He is the Way, the Truth, the Life, and nobody comes through the Father but through Him.
Deuteronomy 13:1-3
“If a prophet arises among you, or a dreamer of dreams, and gives you a sign or a wonder, 2 and the sign or the wonder which he spoke (foretold) to you comes to pass, and if he says, ‘Let us follow after other gods (whom you have not known) and let us serve and worship them,’ 3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and all your soul [your entire being].
Remember, accuracy is not the true litmus test of a prophet. The true test is who they lead you to after they say what they say. Are they leading you to Christ and His word? Are they leading you to repentance and holiness, or are they leading you to align your allegiance with false gods.
Revelation 13:15
And he is given power to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast will even [appear to] speak, and cause those who do not bow down and worship the image of the beast to be put to death.
An image of the beast is made to speak. It is an image that talks. So, the image of the beast is a talking statue. What would this be today? One of the closest things we have to it is a robot, a very human looking robot. This is why humanoid robots are suddenly picking up in the earth. They are getting creepier and creepier because they're getting more and more lifelike. I'm pretty sure this is what John is seeing and he's likening it to what he knows of in his day, which was a statue. They didn't have holograms, movie screens, or television back then. They did have paintings and statues.
This is why AI and robots have begun their upward climb into human consciousness. This recalls Nebuchadnezzar's image in Daniel 3. Nebuchadnezzar demanded everyone bow and worship the golden image that he had created. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refused to bow to Nebuchadnezzar's image. As a result, he threw them into the fiery furnace. He intended to kill them and to make an example of them to show people that his image was almighty and all powerful. Jesus Christ was already in the fire and a miracle occurred that none of the Babylon gods, nor their magicians, nor their sorcerers could ever perform. The Lord preserved them in the fire because the Lord preserves His people, not man.
Revelation 13:15 tells us that everyone must bow to the image of the beast (that now talks because AI is part of the system the beast will utilize). In fact, the beast system will be heavy on AI. The city AI was in Canaan. AI means heap of runes, which is what the beast kingdom will become. Canaan came from Ham who was Noah's corrupt son. History foreshadows prophecy. The Old Testament foreshadows what occurs in the New Testament.
Revelation 13:16
Also he compels all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead [signifying allegiance to the beast].
The beast requires a mark and it appears to be a visible mark. Without it, people are not permitted to buy or sell. This is unprecedented in scripture. Nowhere in scripture did a ruler require a mark to be brandished in order to buy, sell, and/or function economically. If you think about the implications this will have, it includes bank accounts, investment accounts, entering malls, buying plane tickets, buying from the grocery store, and even school tuition. Economics has become an instrument of worship and allegiance.
Scripture warns us that the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. The epitome of that scripture is what the Antichrist would do. That's a prophecy about the Antichrist making economics an instrument of worship and allegiance. The mark is connected to participation in the beast system because the beast has an entire system, kingdom, and structure that it builds.
Views differ on whether the mark should be understood as a literal physical mark, a symbolic sign of allegiance, or both. What is clear in the passage is that receiving it represents identifying with and supporting the beast's rule. You are giving in completely to his system.
What is defining here is the Greek word used for mark. The Greek word used for mark in this particular scripture is charagma. It means a mark, a stamp, or an engraving. Those are all (in their own right) very visible on an object. It also means to be branded like cattle.
When ranchers brand cattle, it's burned into the side of the cattle so that mark cannot be removed. It identifies ownership of the cattle and specifically which rancher owns that cattle. Those cattle have no free will. They are owned by the rancher, are identified by the mark of the rancher, and they go where the rancher tells them to go. They will be herded in the direction the rancher says. Cattle are economic assets and commodities. They have economic value. Likewise, when people take the mark, they become branded like cattle and become not only property of the beast but an economic asset, a commodity to be utilized for gain. The hand and the forehead echo the language that is used in Deuteronomy 6. Israel was instructed to keep God's commandments on their hand and forehead as a sign of continual devotion.
Deuteronomy 6:7-8
You shall teach them diligently to your [b]children [impressing God’s precepts on their minds and penetrating their hearts with His truths] and shall speak of them when you sit in your house and when you walk on the road and when you lie down and when you get up. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign on your hand (forearm), and they shall be used as [c]bands (frontals, frontlets) on your forehead. 9 You shall write them on the [d]doorposts of your house and on your gates.
That word for bind in Hebrew means to tie or gird. When something is tied, you can see it visibly. When you tie something, when you gird something, you're physically moving it into position. Once again, in order for the enemy to counterfeit scripture close enough to deceive even the scholars, he must align the events and characteristics of the beast just close enough that it's believable. Revelation presents a striking contrast. God's people are marked as belonging to Him, which is in Revelation 7.
Revelation 7:3
3 saying, “Do not harm the earth nor the sea nor the trees until we [b]seal (mark) the bond-servants of our God on their foreheads.
The beast followers bear the beast mark. They are owned now by that system. In both cases, the imagery and text centers on loyalty, identity, and ownership. Your loyalty is defined by the established identity you brandish.
Revelation 13:18
18 Here is wisdom. Let the person who has enough insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the [imperfect] number of a man; [g]and his number is [h]six hundred and sixty-six.
"His number is Six hundred threescore and six."
Let’s start with the word psephizo, which is often translated as “count” or “calculate.” There is an individual who is called Shoebat who says the word can simply mean to discern or decide and doesn’t necessarily have to do with counting anything. However, in this case it does. Psephizo is a very rare Greek word in the New Testament; in fact, the only other time it occurs in the Bible is in Luke.
Luke 14:28:
“For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it.”
Here the word is obviously used in the sense of counting. Jesus is talking about a man counting his money to see if he has enough to finish a building project. The word is never used in a general sense as in to discern or decide. It literally means to count. This is why we as believers must be aware of what the enemy does symbolically with numbers. The word number is used three times in Revelation 13:18 and it comes from the Greek word arithmos, which is where we get the English word arithmetic, or mathematics. You can only count in and calculate numbers. You can also look for the root idea in this, which means to search for, to verify, and to come to a verdict.
In biblical symbolism, six often represents humanity since humanity was created on the sixth day. Three repeated sixes have been understood in many ways, including the highest expression of fallen humanity. This number is linked to the spirit of Antichrist and lawlessness, which is already at work within the earth. This is why you see this number hidden within the names of entities. You see it referenced in music videos, and when the enemy aligns dates, times, and events, sequences of that number are present. It is a coded reference that first century readers may have recognized through Gematria.
This is the other part of it, the coded reference. This 666 is something that's coded. There's something deeper here. One well-known historical proposal links 666 to the name of the Roman Emperor, Nero Caesar. Using Hebrew letter values, while many futurist interpreters see it as identifying a future individual. John may have been saying, look for someone that has the character profile of Nero Caesar, who was one of the most wicked men that ever lived and persecuted horrifically the church.
If we look at his name spelled, it equals 666. This is how you would spell it in the Greek and assign the gematria to it. This is what you would come up with. These letters equal these values, and it actually equals 666, Nero Caesar.
N=50
R=200
O=6
N=50
Q=100
S=60
R=200
=666
The text itself does not explicitly identify the person. Instead, it says, let he who has wisdom calculate for it is the number of a man. It doesn't say it is the number of a system. It is the number of a man who is attached and fed by an entire system.
We are going to see this hidden in things in our modern day. We're going to see this begin to show itself as the spirit of Antichrist and lawlessness will get stronger within the earth. When you translate Elon Musk’s company Neuralink into Greek and calculate it as a numerical value, you get 666.
ΝΕΥΡΑΛΙΝΚ
Ν = 50
Ε = 5
Υ = 400
Ρ = 100
Α = 1
Λ = 30
Ι = 10
Ν = 50
Κ = 20
=666
This is a mark in itself. Now, I do think there's something greater at work than Neuralink for the mark of the beast. I think it is the precursor to the beast system that it is part of a building of a beast system that is under construction. There is a foreshadowing here of what is to come.
Islam is attempting to rise in the world to claim a birthright that was never given to them. Ishmael wants to claim the birthright and I'm going to show you something fascinating here. I'm going to show you the Greek number for 666 written in Greek and the name of Allah. They are very similar. That's not an accident that we're watching these things show up and become more common. Interestingly enough, Prophet Muhammad in the Hebrew gematria equals 666 as well. I'm not saying this is the mark of the beast, but I'm showing you the foreshadowing that is getting stronger as we watch Islam attempt to rise within the earth. We will see more of this like an alarm as we approach that time.
Did you know also that Pfizer in Hebrew gematria equals 666. Pfizer wanted everyone to be marked. That's the precursor you see as those events get closer. You will see precursors and foreshadowing come. They are warning signs, alarms being sounded as that spirit of antichrist and lawlessness moves about within the earth. You will see the prominent hallmarks of it come up in the world system. This is why you see it in Neuralink. This is why you see it in Pfizer. This is why you see the written name of Allah looks very similar to the Greek number 666 when it's written. These are the hallmarks that are showing up in modern-day, in a world system that's being built to be a beast system. Its beginning to foreshadow and take on the characteristics of the one it will ultimately serve.
Humanity will become an economic commodity that is utilized through a false religious covenant that is made with the beast, that the false prophet helps to ratify. Just as the prophets in the Old Testament and John the Baptist in the New Testament proclaimed the way of Jesus to lay the path. They were announcing the way. They were drawing people's attention to look for the Messiah, to look for the Christ. They were acting under the unction of Almighty God and performing signs and wonders to prepare the path and make it straight for the deliverer.
The false prophet does the same thing. He prepares the path and makes it straight for the false deliverer who's offering a false salvation, who operates in a false authority, and who is giving the soul and mind of the dragon.
We must know what the book of Revelation entails. This is not a book for us to be afraid of. It is a tool and a manual. Believers should be utilizing it because we're watching it come into modern day. We are watching the cobblestone for the beast system be laid, today. We are watching the preparation for the false prophet to come in and make the way clear. In Proverbs it says, pride goeth before destruction. The false prophet is pride. The beast is destruction. The verse in Proverbs goes on to say that a haughty spirit will ultimately bring a big fall. That is where they will go into the lake of fire.
A lot of these scriptures in the Bible are foreshadowing what is coming and written about in the Book of Revelation. We must have eyes to see and ears to hear what the Holy Spirit has to say. We must allow the Lord to open up the scriptures to us so that we can understand it in the way that John understood it. So that we can see from a perspective that others cannot see. That's what we need to do right now because there is so much deception and lawlessness at work.
The system is perfecting itself. The beast system right now is in test mode and it is trying to work out the kinks. It's trying to get everything in order. That's why we saw what we saw with COVID. That's why we've seen what we've seen with dictators being raised up. This is why we see what we see with Islam. This is why we see a digital currency being built. It is so that you will be marked and connected to it economically.
I believe we're just beginning and scratching the surface. I believe the enemy is trying to frustrate, distract, and wear out the people of God so we don't recognize these things. He wants to make sure that we are too distracted by ridiculous, earthly things that don't ultimately matter. He is doing this so that we cannot see into the deeper areas and the deeper deception.
The enemy is attempting to bring forth his unholy trinity of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. We must recognize it and pray into it that we will be given revelation and understanding of the scriptures in a way that will get the attention of the world. We are currently competing against AI, media, television, and radio. You are competing against so many voices for the world to understand why they need Jesus Christ. If they've got all these tools and are distracted by them, why would they need Jesus Christ?
There is a level of revelation that comes from God that AI can't give. There is a power from the Holy Spirit that AI can't counterfeit. The beast will try, but he will fall short. He'll get close. In fact, he'll get the closest that anybody has ever gotten. However, he will still fall short. This is why they're so desperate to upload human consciousness into a computer. To worship a talking image that talks at that level there's got to be consciousness involved. This is why these things are all happening. These people are being compelled to do this by a force that's not God. God's allowing it, but they're being compelled by a force that is insatiably hungry to build the B system. That is the spirit of lawlessness and antichrist at work.
We must always be open to the Lord teaching us no matter how much experience we have, no matter how much we've read the word. There's always something there that we haven't seen. We must be open to the Lord so that He will open up the scriptures to us in an age where they are attempting to counterfeit the Bible, take scriptures out of the Bible, and destroy the Bible. You cannot destroy the word of God. It's living, active, and current for every generation. No one's been able to destroy it, but we must know it.
I find that people tend to be afraid of the book of Revelation. People tend to get uneasy about reading it, and we shouldn't. It is the only book in the Bible that says that the reader will receive a blessing for reading it. Even though the whole Bible is a blessing, it specifically states that you will receive a blessing for reading the book and wanting to understand what is in the book. There's so much hidden in the book of Revelation that I believe we have yet to uncover within the scriptures.
In Revelation chapter 13, this unholy trinity is raised up. I want to get into this prophetically. There are some amazing things I'm going to show you when it comes to foreshadowing of what is to come, how it is coming into modern day, and what it looks like.
Revelation 12 introduces the dragon, but Revelation 13 introduces the beast and the false prophet. This is a counterfeit trinity. The enemy attempts to counterfeit what the Lord does. The enemy attempts to counterfeit because the enemy cannot create, he can only manipulate what already exists. He does this with God's word too.
The Holy Trinity in Heaven is the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, who said let us make man in our own image. There must be similar that rises up from the kingdom of darkness to make a counterfeit trinity of sorts to attempt to rule over a good part of the earth. This counterfeit trinity will attempt to commit a hostile takeover of the earth. Revelation 14 introduces the lamb. So, John makes a stark contrast between the two kingdoms, between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness.
In Revelation 12, the dragon is identified as Satan. Now, Satan cannot destroy Christ. Instead, he attempts to counterfeit Him to cause people on earth to worship a false christ to try to give them false salvation. He does this in order to try to steal souls from the kingdom of God.
Revelation 13:1
And the [a]dragon (Satan) stood on the sandy shore of the sea. Then I saw a [vicious] beast coming up out of the sea with ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten royal [b]crowns (diadems), and on his heads were blasphemous names.
That's the imagery that is introduced to us at the beginning of this chapter. In a way, the sea represents the nations. The beast is rising up from the nations of the earth. That is what's happening. This is an ascension out of the nations of the earth. Remember, the enemy counterfeits what God creates. That is why this is attributed to the waters or the sea, that he's standing by the waters and we're watching a beast called up out of the waters. If you go to Genesis 1:2, there's something interesting for us to take note of.
Genesis 1:2
The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters. As the Lord is creating His spirit is hovering over the waters.
As the Lord is creating, His spirit is hovering over the waters. In Revelation, we see a beast rise and ascend out of the sea.
Job 41:34
He looks on everything that is high [without terror];
He is monarch over all the sons of pride.
A monarch wears a crown. The antichrist will be the most pride-filled individual that ever lived, because Satan himself has inhabited him.
Isaiah 27:1
In that day the Lord will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent
With His fierce and great and mighty sword [rescuing Israel from her enemy], Even Leviathan the twisted serpent; And He will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.
The dragon is who raises up this ten-crowned, seven-headed beast out of the sea. The sea is the dwelling place of Leviathan, the monarch of the sons of pride. In a way, Leviathan and the dragon are partners. They're working for the same cause. The imagery is interesting by what's spoken about in Job and Isaiah of Leviathan, and then what's spoken about of the dragon that's going to bring a beast up out of the sea.
Revelation 13:2
And the beast that I saw resembled a [c]leopard, but his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth was like that of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority.
The beast resembles a leopard, a bear, and a lion. That is the order in Revelation 13:2. This is backwards from the Book of Daniel.
Daniel 7:4-7
4The first (the Babylonian Empire under Nebuchadnezzar) was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man; a human mind was given to it. 5 And behold, another beast, a second one (the Medo-Persian Empire), was like a bear, and it was raised up on one side (domain), and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth; and it was told, ‘Arise, devour much meat.’ 6 After this I kept looking, and behold, another one (the Greek Empire of Alexander the Great), like a leopard, which had on its back four wings like those of a bird; the beast also had four heads (Alexander’s generals, his successors), and power to rule was given to it. 7 After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, [I saw] a fourth beast (the Roman Empire), terrible and extremely strong; and it had huge iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down what was left with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that came before it, and it had ten horns (ten kings).
10 horns in a way can represent 10 kings. What is fascinating is that John is looking at it one way and Daniel is looking at it the other way. They're seeing similar things, but they're looking at them in a different order. Daniel 7:4 has the imagery of the formation of America. I'm not saying that who they are talking about is America, but the imagery of how America was formed is there. The lion had wings like an eagle. England's symbol is the lion. The wings of the eagle were taken from the lion, and it was lifted up and made to stand on the ground like a man.
In 1774, significant events included the First Continental Congress convening in response to the Intolerable Acts, where delegates from twelve colonies gathered to organize colonial resistance against British rule. In 1774 they started organizing the resistance to England. America's symbol is the eagle. England is the lion. They were separated during the Revolutionary War. The lion and the eagle are separated and then was taken, and men then formed the government of America.
The imagery is there because Daniel is talking about Babylon, which is interesting because America has been equated to Babylon in many ways. What is happening is that Daniel is looking forward through history into the future. John is seeing heaven's perspective looking back and the collective culmination of the empires that are being discussed.
Daniel saw:
Babylon → Medo-Persia → Greece → Rome. That's the order in which Daniel saw it. He saw the lion with the wings of the eagle (Babylon), then he saw the bear (the Medo-Persian Empire) with the three ribs between its teeth. He kept looking and he saw a leopard which had four wings like those of a bird on its back (that was the Greek Empire), and then the last one that he spoke about was the Roman Empire.
In Revelation, John sees the final empire incorporating the characteristics of all the previous empires. This will create the ultimate empire. The enemy will take the most defining characteristics from each one of these empires to raise up a super empire that is far more wicked than any of its predecessors. The enemy is doing this for dominance.
As Daniel is seeing Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome; John is seeing Rome, Greece, Medo-Persia, and Babylon. When it comes to Babylon and these other empires, they have certain characteristics. Babylon's arrogance was one of its greatest characteristics, their sheer human pride and defiance against God. Babylon is the epitome of rebellion, and it is the devil himself who leads the greatest rebellion at the end. Persia is one of the other empires and the stabilizing force is their administrative power. It was orderly and provided great political and financial support. The empire and its leaders knew how to fund their activities. Remember, Persia is Iran. I find interesting that when it comes to Persia (Iran), the funding of their activities is currently being pinched shut in this conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran. One of Persia's defining characteristics when it ruled as an empire was its ability to fund its activities. Next, there is Greece. What is taken from Greece is their cultural influence that socially led many astray into the immoral and lowered the threshold of the conscience to engage in immoral activities without penalty. Greece promoted a do what thou will agenda. In Greece, there was perverse practices that were encouraged. There were occultic practices that were encouraged and individualism and materialism were highly promoted. Finally, there was Rome. Rome had military strength. Rome had no mercy and they were vicious. It was during the time of the Roman Empire that Jesus Christ himself was crucified. They were a dominant, dreadful, and highly pagan people. Some of these other empires were more negotiators, they did military conquests, but they liked to negotiate to try to get their way. Rome didn't want to negotiate. Rome wanted to come, subdue, conquer, destroy, and take over.
The final world system that is described in Revelation 13 and in Daniel 7, rises out of the culmination of these previous rebellious empires in order to make a super empire to attempt to dominate the entire earth. This is a complete mutation of an empire that the world has not yet seen. What we have seen thus far is bits and pieces of it over time, but it will eventually come together into a super empire. It will be the most wicked of the wicked, and the most dominant of the dominant. All these characteristics are coming together in order to mutate, form, and birth what's spoken about in Revelation 13.
Revelation 13:2-5
And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of his heads which seemed to have a fatal wound, but his fatal wound was healed; and the entire earth followed after the beast in amazement. 4 They fell down and worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; they also worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like (as great as) the beast, and who is able to wage war against him? And the beast was given a mouth (the power of speech), uttering great things and arrogant and blasphemous words, and he was given freedom and authority to act and to do as he pleased for [d]forty-two months (three and a half years).
The dragon gave him his power. This is the astonishing part where we see Satan attempting to structure his kingdom on earth the way that Almighty God has structured the kingdom of Heaven. Satan is trying to copy the blueprint of how he saw the kingdom of heaven structured when he was an archangel in heaven.
The Father gives authority to the Son. Almighty God gives all power and authority to Jesus Christ, who was the Lamb who was slain before the foundations of the earth were ever mad and He overcame the world. Satan gives his authority to the beast. The beast is begotten of Satan in the way the Son is begotten of the Father.
There is a legal transfer of power because Satan is attempting to structure his empire to bring forth his own Messiah. He is attempting to bring forth the power that the Kingdom of Heaven has. Although he may try to counterfeit, he will never be able to completely align a blueprint, align an army, and align a plan to totally become like the Kingdom of Heaven. There is a legal transfer of power that happens. Everything here imitates God and His order, except Satan is the epitome of evil darkness, rebellion, pride, blasphemous things. Because of that, his order is corrupted, wicked, and unstable. It cannot sustain long-term no matter how much he tries.
Notice the parallel to the Trinity. Father, Son, Holy Spirit. They're three, but they're one. There are parallels here to this. The Father gives his power to Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. The Dragon gives his power to the beast, who is meant to be a centralized figure of worship and salvation, who counterfeits a resurrection and seemingly comes back to life. Finally, there is the Holy Spirit who is the counselor, the Ruach Hakodesh. He intercedes before the Father on our behalf. The Holy Spirit compels us towards Jesus Christ. In Satan's counterfeit trinity and hierarchy, this figure would be the false prophet who counsels and leads man to worship the beast and compels humanity through a dark deceiving power that parades and leads people to a false salvation. So as the Holy Spirit counsels us into a relationship with Almighty God through Jesus Christ, the false prophet is counseling humanity into a relationship with the dragon through the beast.
The enemy is trying to mirror the Trinity with this alignment that he is creating. Jesus receives authority from the Father. The beast receives authority from the dragon, who is Satan. Jesus Christ takes the authority that he received from the Father, and says, behold, I have given unto you authority to trample upon serpents and scorpions and against all the power of the enemy, so nothing shall by any means hurt you. Humanity now is in a covenant to trample upon serpents and scorpions and against all the power of the enemy. However, when the dragon gives the beast authority, that authority is then taken to trample upon anyone who will not worship him. He's not giving authority to man in order to free them and bring them into a relationship with Almighty God. He's actually taking that authority to trample upon everyone who will not worship him.
Jesus Christ performs Signs and wonders. Scripture is filled with Christ doing signs and wonders, healings, miracles, raising the dead, healing the sick, and resurrecting Himself from the dead to cause people to believe He is the Messiah. He is truly the Son of God. The false prophet will perform signs and wonders to lead people to believe the beast is salvation. As Jesus Christ receives worship, the beast must receive worship (to align the counterfeit).
On top of it, the Holy Spirit points people toward Jesus Christ and coming into a covenant relationship with Almighty God through Jesus Satan cannot create, he can only counterfeit what already is. He perverts the structure to produce darkness, deception, enslavement, and destruction. This is because the thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy.
John 10:10
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].
Revelation 13:3
I saw one of his heads which seemed to have a fatal wound, but his fatal wound was healed; and the entire earth followed after the beast in amazement.
Whether this is a literal assassination where the chance of survival is deemed nil, a symbolic resurrection, or an actual resurrection (where the beast literally dies, is pronounced dead and comes back to life), it functions as a parallel to Jesus Christ's death and resurrection. It is meant to completely mirror His death and resurrection. Christ died as a sacrifice. Some might even call Him a martyr because He was killed for His faith. He was killed for what He believed. He was killed because He was compelling people into a relationship with Almighty God. Who Jesus was, interfered in the business of the Pharisees. If this counterfeit is going to be masterful, this beast will have to be killed connected to a faith, connected to a religious belief, and connected to compelling the people to believe in a certain direction. Remember, this antichrist is the most detailed counterfeit he's ever going to make and that beast has a whole system supporting and feeding it.
Genesis 3:15
And I will put enmity (open hostility) between you and the woman, and between your seed (offspring) and her [a]Seed; He shall [fatally] bruise your head, and you shall [only] bruise His heel.”
This scripture is talking about the death of Christ. In a way, the enemy is attempting to recreate the prophecy of Genesis 3:15. It is in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible, in which the Jews religiously follow. In order to deceive the firstborn of Almighty God (the Jews), he will have to recreate events that match scripture. He will have to do this just close enough so that it's believable.
It is the same process when a $100 bill is counterfeited. When someone who knows how to counterfeit money counterfeits a $100 bill, they do it by counterfeiting the details. They start to put in details that would be seen on a real dollar bill. It takes a trained eye of someone that is trained in seeing into the little details, who is able to spot the nuances, to spot that it's a counterfeit.
This is the process that the enemy is going through to counterfeit the beast. He will do it so that it matches scripture. How else will he be able to get Jew and Muslim to bow to one beast (one antichrist) when they have been fighting since Isaac and Ishmael? It must match the religious context of their scriptures. Satan knows the Word and he manipulates events to attempt to mold them to the Word, to deceive covenant people into believing what is false. This then brings them into idolatry and a blasphemous covenant with him and an unholy trinity that he has created.
Revelation 13:4
They fell down and worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; they also worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like (as great as) the beast, and who is able to wage war against him?
The world says, "Who is like unto the beast?" This echoes Old Testament worship of the Lord, because the enemy's going to counterfeit it.
Exodus 15:11
Who is like You among the gods, O Lord? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, Awesome in splendor, working wonders?
Psalm 89:8
O Lord God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty Lord? Your faithfulness also surrounds You.
Psalm 113:5
Who is like the Lord our God, who is enthroned on high, who is like the Lord?
Humanity says, who is like the beast? Satan wants redirected worship and man's allegiance, which is a rejection of the Creator (Almighty God) who created them. Satan wants the creation to reject its Creator and treat Satan as if he is the creator, as if he is the salvation, and as if he is the only way, the truth, and the life. This is because Christ himself said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but through me.
Satan is attempting to open up a secondary door and he's selling it to the earth that there's another way to get to the Father. However, that is the road to hell. He is doing this because he has to counterfeit it. From the beginning in the garden, Satan has desperately wanted to be like God.
Genesis 3:4
But the serpent said to the woman, “You certainly will not die! 5 For God knows that on the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened [that is, you will have greater awareness], and you will be like God, knowing [the difference between] good and evil.”
The enemy can only attempt to create the illusion of being like God. He can never be God. No one can ever get close to be Almighty God, and that is what the devil hates because he will never become that. Remember, he is a created being himself. A created being wants another created being to worship him as if he is the creator. The enemy is after the catastrophic fall of man and to negate the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. He wants to replace that whole system of salvation and redemption with deception and chains.
Revelation 13:6
And he opened his mouth to speak blasphemies (abusive speech, slander) against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, and those who live in heaven.
In verse six, the beast blasphemes the name of God, his tabernacle, and those who live in Heaven. So, the beast attacks God (His name, His character, and His very nature) in three ways. The beast must attack God's name first in order to defame His character and deceive people into believing God is not who He says He is. This very tactic is employed throughout all the media today to discredit. The name is always attacked first.
Next, he will attack His dwelling place where His presence comes to be with His people. The tabernacle represents the church, the house of God. In order for the beast to lure people to worship him as god in his temple that he has erected, he must deceive them into believing the tabernacle is not where God dwells.
The third way that the beast will attack is His people, those who have been in covenant with him. The beast must deceive people into swearing their allegiance to him, if he is going to gain power within the earth.
Every dictator that has risen throughout history has employed similar methods to take over nations and to deceive the people. It's the same spirit of antichrist and lawlessness that now becomes the most potent in the end. It becomes the strongest, the most powerful, and the most insatiable. They come in looking like a savior, like a gift, they have the solutions to everyone's problems, and then once the keys of power have been handed over, they turn into the monsters that they always were, like a switch being flipped.
The beast is the ultimate Trojan horse. Now, what's interesting about that, is that Mamdani has been called the Trojan horse. He has the character and profile of one that operates in the spirit of antichrist. The beast will be far worse than him. He's a dress rehearsal. He's a warning. He is a blueprint of what is to come. This fulfills what Paul says in 2 Thessalonians 2, The "man of lawlessness" exalts himself above every object of worship. He has to be established as supreme to get peoples from many nations religions to forsake their gods and worship the beast as being above them all.
Revelation 13:7
He was also [e]permitted to wage war against the saints (God’s people) and to overcome them, and authority and power over every tribe and people and language and nation.
The beast persecutes believers. Something very important to notice is that victory appears temporarily. God allows persecution. In fact, the church has been persecuted since its inception in the book of Acts. If we look back further into the Old Testament, David and King Saul were a foreshadowing of the people of God being persecuted by the Antichrist.
Saul had abandoned God's ways. He sought the dark arts for power; he established himself as supreme. David was in covenant with the Lord and because of that, Saul hunted David down to keep him from his inheritance in the Lord, which was the kingdom. It was the same thing with Haman and the people of God in the book of Esther. Haman is an antichrist type figure.
When John says he was permitted to wage war against the saints, to overcome them, and was given authority and power over every tribe, people, language, and nation; John's perspective of the entire earth at that moment consisted of Europe, Asia, and Africa. John's concept of the entire earth and the Middle East consisted of those areas. To John's knowledge, that was the entire earth. We must take that into account. I do not believe that that's all the Antichrist will rule over, but there is an army that will rise up to oppose him.
The beast conquers physically; he can never conquer spiritually. He can never break the spiritual threshold where he legally takes over the kingdom of God. He may have a centralized physical kingdom within the earth, but he can never go beyond the threshold of that no matter how much he gives the illusion of that happening.
Revelation 13:8
All the inhabitants of the earth will fall down and worship him, everyone whose name has not been written since the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb who has been slain [as a willing sacrifice].
All the inhabitants of the earth will fall down and worship him. Everyone whose name has not been written in the Lamb's Book of Life. This is why we need a covenant relationship with Christ Jesus because it seals us, it marks us, and it protects us. Everybody whose name is not written in the Book of Life will come under such a great delusion that they will automatically fall down and worship the beast.
Notice the dividing line is not politics. The dividing line is not nationality and it's not wealth. It's something that the enemy has desired since the Garden of Eden and the catastrophic fall of man. It is allegiance. It's a matter of the mind and soul coming into covenant with the beast.
God gave man the gift of free will and the enemy coerces man to give it to him, who then enslaves man. The devil then marks them with a mark that cannot be undone. This has been a battle since the Garden of Eden, since man was created. The enemies desire to steal that allegiance. There's a second beast that arises in Revelation 13:11.
Revelation 13:9-11
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 If anyone is destined for captivity, he will go into captivity; if anyone kills with a sword, he must be killed with a sword. Here is [the call for] the patient endurance and the faithfulness of the saints [which is seen in the response of God’s people to difficult times].11 Then I saw [f]another beast rising up out of the earth; he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke like a dragon.
Now, if we look at these scriptures (9-11) and we look at the description, we have the precursor that we see in individuals right now who are in politics and who are positioned globally, including Zohran Mamdani. I say this so that you can see that we have a character profile. Horns like a lamb tells us that it's a young male. A lamb is not an adult, mature sheep. A lamb is a young male, because it states that it will have horns like a lamb. Female sheep don't have horns. Only males have horns. In fact, they get their horns when they are young adult males. What is described here is an unaltered young male (young adult) I would say 20s or 30s.
Jesus Christ was called the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. He died at the age of 33. He was 30 years old when John the Baptist said, Behold the Lamb of God, because he is describing a young man. Now, John is seeing another lamb with horns. He looks like that, but speaks like a dragon. The description is telling us this is going to be a young, charismatic man, the false prophet. The false prophet will not be an older man. Remember, he's got to counterfeit the scriptures and when Jesus was called the Lamb of God, He was 30 years old.
If we look at the parallel out of New York City, that is the foreshadowing. I'm not saying Zohran Mamdani is this counterfeit false prophet. I am saying that there's a foreshadowing there, a young charismatic man in his 30s that has all these ideas, that comes in wanting to be the savior. This is how you're going to see this system enter. There will always be a foreshadowing that arises first before the false prophet of Revelation comes on the scene.
You are going to see people with similar characteristics foreshadowing the coming of the false prophet, of the beast. You're going to see the foreshadowing first, which are the rumblings before the earthquake. And this one comes from the earth, so it is flesh and blood. The false prophet is flesh and blood. It says, then I saw another beast rising up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon. He looks like a lamb, but he speaks like a dragon. Remember, the dragon is lending his power, so the false prophet is going to sound like who his power is spiritually coming from. That's why he speaks like a dragon. Jesus Christ sounded like the Father, because that is who his power came from.
This deception is well crafted, well structured, theologically thought out, politically thought out, spiritually thought out, and financially thought-out deception. It gives the appearance of Christ, coming in looking like a champion, coming in looking like a savior, but the voice and the breath is Satan. He is made to look like a savior, but the soul is Satan. The will is Satan.
Kim Clement said, “The words may be right, but the breath is wrong”. These words are so true for the false prophet of Revelation 13. The source for which those words come is corrupt and it embodies the false prophet of Revelation 13. Jesus warned repeatedly about false prophets who appear harmless but are inwardly deceive. Inwardly they are predators who are not seeking to lead people to Christ, to repentance, and to true redemption through Christ. They are the announcer of the way of the beast and the dragon. They carry about the enemy's business. Christ was about His Father's business.
Later on in this chapter, Revelation does identify the lamb with the two horns and speaks like a dragon as the false prophet. His job is not political, although he will intertwine himself with the political. He helps create a worldwide worship movement, centered on the first beast to add to this great deception. The beast is the supreme divine being who the dragon has begotten, who the dragon has given his power to. This means the false prophet is going to have to use language that is similar enough to deceive the religious into submission. He's going to have to speak their language, and he's going to do it in a very charismatic way with conviction and with passion. His words, speech, and thoughts are going to leave people awestruck in order to lure them into a covenant with the dragon through the beast.
Revelation 13:13
He performs great signs (awe-inspiring acts), even making fire fall from the sky to the earth, right before peoples’ eyes. 14 And he deceives those [unconverted ones] who inhabit the earth [into believing him] because of the signs which he is given [by Satan] to perform in the presence of the [first] beast, telling those who inhabit the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded [fatally] by the sword and has come back to life.
The false prophet is the greatest PR machine that will ever be seen. He calls fire from heaven just like Elijah. Fire came down from heaven in the presence of Elijah and 850 prophets of Baal, Ashtoreth. and the people of the kingdom to demonstrate to them that beyond a doubt the Lord God Almighty, is God. Baal couldn't call fire down. Elijah was able to call fire down to consume the sacrifice and get all the water in the trench licked up because it demonstrated to the people that the Lord Almighty is God. Fire was called down to cause the people to stop faltering between two opinions. It was something that they have never seen any prophet of Baal or Ashtoreth do.
The false prophet is doing the same. The key word here is performing. He is performing these acts to demonstrate that the beast is all powerful above all other gods. He's performing these acts, he's calling down fire, and he's doing these things to prove who the beast has been presented to be to the earth. This is how the enemy aligns events with scripture to deceive the religious.
The religious may know scripture, but they're deafened to the voice of the Holy Spirit. You see, Revelation is filled with the enemy's greatest counterfeits that he will ever produce. It is a trophy case. What we've seen with dictators throughout history are his warm-up, his experiments to see what works and what doesn't.
Remember the two witnesses in Revelation 11, fire comes from them as well. They come and preach against what's happening within the earth. This miracle intentionally mimics God's authentic acts, and once again, the source is highly contaminated. The source is darkness. It is hell parading as light, combined with a false authority that has been given onto him by the dragon (Satan). Scripture consistently warns that the miraculous signs alone are not proof that a message and the messenger speak for God. The litmus test to know if the person has been sent by God, is when they point back to being in relationship with Jesus Christ. Knowing that He is the Way, the Truth, the Life, and nobody comes through the Father but through Him.
Deuteronomy 13:1-3
“If a prophet arises among you, or a dreamer of dreams, and gives you a sign or a wonder, 2 and the sign or the wonder which he spoke (foretold) to you comes to pass, and if he says, ‘Let us follow after other gods (whom you have not known) and let us serve and worship them,’ 3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and all your soul [your entire being].
Remember, accuracy is not the true litmus test of a prophet. The true test is who they lead you to after they say what they say. Are they leading you to Christ and His word? Are they leading you to repentance and holiness, or are they leading you to align your allegiance with false gods.
Revelation 13:15
And he is given power to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast will even [appear to] speak, and cause those who do not bow down and worship the image of the beast to be put to death.
An image of the beast is made to speak. It is an image that talks. So, the image of the beast is a talking statue. What would this be today? One of the closest things we have to it is a robot, a very human looking robot. This is why humanoid robots are suddenly picking up in the earth. They are getting creepier and creepier because they're getting more and more lifelike. I'm pretty sure this is what John is seeing and he's likening it to what he knows of in his day, which was a statue. They didn't have holograms, movie screens, or television back then. They did have paintings and statues.
This is why AI and robots have begun their upward climb into human consciousness. This recalls Nebuchadnezzar's image in Daniel 3. Nebuchadnezzar demanded everyone bow and worship the golden image that he had created. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refused to bow to Nebuchadnezzar's image. As a result, he threw them into the fiery furnace. He intended to kill them and to make an example of them to show people that his image was almighty and all powerful. Jesus Christ was already in the fire and a miracle occurred that none of the Babylon gods, nor their magicians, nor their sorcerers could ever perform. The Lord preserved them in the fire because the Lord preserves His people, not man.
Revelation 13:15 tells us that everyone must bow to the image of the beast (that now talks because AI is part of the system the beast will utilize). In fact, the beast system will be heavy on AI. The city AI was in Canaan. AI means heap of runes, which is what the beast kingdom will become. Canaan came from Ham who was Noah's corrupt son. History foreshadows prophecy. The Old Testament foreshadows what occurs in the New Testament.
Revelation 13:16
Also he compels all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead [signifying allegiance to the beast].
The beast requires a mark and it appears to be a visible mark. Without it, people are not permitted to buy or sell. This is unprecedented in scripture. Nowhere in scripture did a ruler require a mark to be brandished in order to buy, sell, and/or function economically. If you think about the implications this will have, it includes bank accounts, investment accounts, entering malls, buying plane tickets, buying from the grocery store, and even school tuition. Economics has become an instrument of worship and allegiance.
Scripture warns us that the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. The epitome of that scripture is what the Antichrist would do. That's a prophecy about the Antichrist making economics an instrument of worship and allegiance. The mark is connected to participation in the beast system because the beast has an entire system, kingdom, and structure that it builds.
Views differ on whether the mark should be understood as a literal physical mark, a symbolic sign of allegiance, or both. What is clear in the passage is that receiving it represents identifying with and supporting the beast's rule. You are giving in completely to his system.
What is defining here is the Greek word used for mark. The Greek word used for mark in this particular scripture is charagma. It means a mark, a stamp, or an engraving. Those are all (in their own right) very visible on an object. It also means to be branded like cattle.
When ranchers brand cattle, it's burned into the side of the cattle so that mark cannot be removed. It identifies ownership of the cattle and specifically which rancher owns that cattle. Those cattle have no free will. They are owned by the rancher, are identified by the mark of the rancher, and they go where the rancher tells them to go. They will be herded in the direction the rancher says. Cattle are economic assets and commodities. They have economic value. Likewise, when people take the mark, they become branded like cattle and become not only property of the beast but an economic asset, a commodity to be utilized for gain. The hand and the forehead echo the language that is used in Deuteronomy 6. Israel was instructed to keep God's commandments on their hand and forehead as a sign of continual devotion.
Deuteronomy 6:7-8
You shall teach them diligently to your [b]children [impressing God’s precepts on their minds and penetrating their hearts with His truths] and shall speak of them when you sit in your house and when you walk on the road and when you lie down and when you get up. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign on your hand (forearm), and they shall be used as [c]bands (frontals, frontlets) on your forehead. 9 You shall write them on the [d]doorposts of your house and on your gates.
That word for bind in Hebrew means to tie or gird. When something is tied, you can see it visibly. When you tie something, when you gird something, you're physically moving it into position. Once again, in order for the enemy to counterfeit scripture close enough to deceive even the scholars, he must align the events and characteristics of the beast just close enough that it's believable. Revelation presents a striking contrast. God's people are marked as belonging to Him, which is in Revelation 7.
Revelation 7:3
3 saying, “Do not harm the earth nor the sea nor the trees until we [b]seal (mark) the bond-servants of our God on their foreheads.
The beast followers bear the beast mark. They are owned now by that system. In both cases, the imagery and text centers on loyalty, identity, and ownership. Your loyalty is defined by the established identity you brandish.
Revelation 13:18
18 Here is wisdom. Let the person who has enough insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the [imperfect] number of a man; [g]and his number is [h]six hundred and sixty-six.
"His number is Six hundred threescore and six."
Let’s start with the word psephizo, which is often translated as “count” or “calculate.” There is an individual who is called Shoebat who says the word can simply mean to discern or decide and doesn’t necessarily have to do with counting anything. However, in this case it does. Psephizo is a very rare Greek word in the New Testament; in fact, the only other time it occurs in the Bible is in Luke.
Luke 14:28:
“For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it.”
Here the word is obviously used in the sense of counting. Jesus is talking about a man counting his money to see if he has enough to finish a building project. The word is never used in a general sense as in to discern or decide. It literally means to count. This is why we as believers must be aware of what the enemy does symbolically with numbers. The word number is used three times in Revelation 13:18 and it comes from the Greek word arithmos, which is where we get the English word arithmetic, or mathematics. You can only count in and calculate numbers. You can also look for the root idea in this, which means to search for, to verify, and to come to a verdict.
In biblical symbolism, six often represents humanity since humanity was created on the sixth day. Three repeated sixes have been understood in many ways, including the highest expression of fallen humanity. This number is linked to the spirit of Antichrist and lawlessness, which is already at work within the earth. This is why you see this number hidden within the names of entities. You see it referenced in music videos, and when the enemy aligns dates, times, and events, sequences of that number are present. It is a coded reference that first century readers may have recognized through Gematria.
This is the other part of it, the coded reference. This 666 is something that's coded. There's something deeper here. One well-known historical proposal links 666 to the name of the Roman Emperor, Nero Caesar. Using Hebrew letter values, while many futurist interpreters see it as identifying a future individual. John may have been saying, look for someone that has the character profile of Nero Caesar, who was one of the most wicked men that ever lived and persecuted horrifically the church.
If we look at his name spelled, it equals 666. This is how you would spell it in the Greek and assign the gematria to it. This is what you would come up with. These letters equal these values, and it actually equals 666, Nero Caesar.
N=50
R=200
O=6
N=50
Q=100
S=60
R=200
=666
The text itself does not explicitly identify the person. Instead, it says, let he who has wisdom calculate for it is the number of a man. It doesn't say it is the number of a system. It is the number of a man who is attached and fed by an entire system.
We are going to see this hidden in things in our modern day. We're going to see this begin to show itself as the spirit of Antichrist and lawlessness will get stronger within the earth. When you translate Elon Musk’s company Neuralink into Greek and calculate it as a numerical value, you get 666.
ΝΕΥΡΑΛΙΝΚ
Ν = 50
Ε = 5
Υ = 400
Ρ = 100
Α = 1
Λ = 30
Ι = 10
Ν = 50
Κ = 20
=666
This is a mark in itself. Now, I do think there's something greater at work than Neuralink for the mark of the beast. I think it is the precursor to the beast system that it is part of a building of a beast system that is under construction. There is a foreshadowing here of what is to come.
Islam is attempting to rise in the world to claim a birthright that was never given to them. Ishmael wants to claim the birthright and I'm going to show you something fascinating here. I'm going to show you the Greek number for 666 written in Greek and the name of Allah. They are very similar. That's not an accident that we're watching these things show up and become more common. Interestingly enough, Prophet Muhammad in the Hebrew gematria equals 666 as well. I'm not saying this is the mark of the beast, but I'm showing you the foreshadowing that is getting stronger as we watch Islam attempt to rise within the earth. We will see more of this like an alarm as we approach that time.
Did you know also that Pfizer in Hebrew gematria equals 666. Pfizer wanted everyone to be marked. That's the precursor you see as those events get closer. You will see precursors and foreshadowing come. They are warning signs, alarms being sounded as that spirit of antichrist and lawlessness moves about within the earth. You will see the prominent hallmarks of it come up in the world system. This is why you see it in Neuralink. This is why you see it in Pfizer. This is why you see the written name of Allah looks very similar to the Greek number 666 when it's written. These are the hallmarks that are showing up in modern-day, in a world system that's being built to be a beast system. Its beginning to foreshadow and take on the characteristics of the one it will ultimately serve.
Humanity will become an economic commodity that is utilized through a false religious covenant that is made with the beast, that the false prophet helps to ratify. Just as the prophets in the Old Testament and John the Baptist in the New Testament proclaimed the way of Jesus to lay the path. They were announcing the way. They were drawing people's attention to look for the Messiah, to look for the Christ. They were acting under the unction of Almighty God and performing signs and wonders to prepare the path and make it straight for the deliverer.
The false prophet does the same thing. He prepares the path and makes it straight for the false deliverer who's offering a false salvation, who operates in a false authority, and who is giving the soul and mind of the dragon.
We must know what the book of Revelation entails. This is not a book for us to be afraid of. It is a tool and a manual. Believers should be utilizing it because we're watching it come into modern day. We are watching the cobblestone for the beast system be laid, today. We are watching the preparation for the false prophet to come in and make the way clear. In Proverbs it says, pride goeth before destruction. The false prophet is pride. The beast is destruction. The verse in Proverbs goes on to say that a haughty spirit will ultimately bring a big fall. That is where they will go into the lake of fire.
A lot of these scriptures in the Bible are foreshadowing what is coming and written about in the Book of Revelation. We must have eyes to see and ears to hear what the Holy Spirit has to say. We must allow the Lord to open up the scriptures to us so that we can understand it in the way that John understood it. So that we can see from a perspective that others cannot see. That's what we need to do right now because there is so much deception and lawlessness at work.
The system is perfecting itself. The beast system right now is in test mode and it is trying to work out the kinks. It's trying to get everything in order. That's why we saw what we saw with COVID. That's why we've seen what we've seen with dictators being raised up. This is why we see what we see with Islam. This is why we see a digital currency being built. It is so that you will be marked and connected to it economically.
I believe we're just beginning and scratching the surface. I believe the enemy is trying to frustrate, distract, and wear out the people of God so we don't recognize these things. He wants to make sure that we are too distracted by ridiculous, earthly things that don't ultimately matter. He is doing this so that we cannot see into the deeper areas and the deeper deception.
The enemy is attempting to bring forth his unholy trinity of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. We must recognize it and pray into it that we will be given revelation and understanding of the scriptures in a way that will get the attention of the world. We are currently competing against AI, media, television, and radio. You are competing against so many voices for the world to understand why they need Jesus Christ. If they've got all these tools and are distracted by them, why would they need Jesus Christ?
There is a level of revelation that comes from God that AI can't give. There is a power from the Holy Spirit that AI can't counterfeit. The beast will try, but he will fall short. He'll get close. In fact, he'll get the closest that anybody has ever gotten. However, he will still fall short. This is why they're so desperate to upload human consciousness into a computer. To worship a talking image that talks at that level there's got to be consciousness involved. This is why these things are all happening. These people are being compelled to do this by a force that's not God. God's allowing it, but they're being compelled by a force that is insatiably hungry to build the B system. That is the spirit of lawlessness and antichrist at work.
We must always be open to the Lord teaching us no matter how much experience we have, no matter how much we've read the word. There's always something there that we haven't seen. We must be open to the Lord so that He will open up the scriptures to us in an age where they are attempting to counterfeit the Bible, take scriptures out of the Bible, and destroy the Bible. You cannot destroy the word of God. It's living, active, and current for every generation. No one's been able to destroy it, but we must know it.
