The TWO BEASTS From The Book Of Revelation

The First BEAST From The Sea (Revelation 13:1-10)

Then I (John) STOOD on The Sand of The Sea.  And I (John) SAW A BEAST (The First Beast) RISING UP OUT of The Sea, having Seven (7) HEADS and Ten (10) HORNS, and ON His (The First Beast’s) HORNS Ten (10) CROWNS, and ON His (The First Beast’s) HEADS A Blasphemous Name.  Now, The BEAST (The First Beast’s) which I (John) SAW was LIKE A Leopard, His (The First Beast’s) FEET were LIKE The Feet of A Bear, and His (The First Beast’s) Mouth LIKE The Mouth of A Lion.  The Dragon (Satan) GAVE Him (The First Beast) His (The First Beast’s) Power, His (The First Beast’s) Throne, and Great Authority.  And I (John) SAW One of His (The First Beast’s) Heads, as if it (One of The First Beast’s Heads) had been Mortally Wounded, and His (One of The First Beast’s Heads) Deadly Wound was HEALED.  And All The World (Unbelievers) Marveled and Followed The BEAST (The First Beast).  So They (Unbelievers) Worshiped The Dragon (Satan) who GAVE Authority to The BEAST (The First Beast); and They (Unbelievers) Worshiped The BEAST (The First Beast), saying, “Who IS LIKE The BEAST (The First Beast)?  Who is able to MAKE WAR with Him (The First Beast)?”

And He (The First Beast) was GIVEN A Mouth, Speaking Great Things and Blasphemies, and He (The First Beast) was GIVEN Authority to Continue for Forty-Two (42) Months.  Then, He (The First Beast) opened His (The First Beast’s) Mouth in Blasphemy AGAINST GOD (GOD Almighty), to Blaspheme His (GOD Almighty’s) Name, His (GOD Almighty’s) Tabernacle, and Those Who DWELL IN Heaven.  It was GRANTED to Him (The First Beast) to Make War WITH The Saints (Believers) and to OVERCOME Them (Believers).  And Authority was GIVEN Him (The First Beast) OVER Every Tribe, Tongue, and Nation.  All (Unbelievers) who dwell on The Earth will Worship Him (The First Beast), (Unbelievers) whose names have NOT been Written IN The BOOK of LIFE of The LAMB (Jesus Christ) SLAIN from The Foundation of The World.  If ANYONE (Believers) has an Ear, Let Him (Believers) HEAR.  He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; He who KILLS with The Sword MUST be KILLED with The Sword.  HERE IS The Patience and The Faith of The Saints (Believers).

The Second BEAST From The Earth (Revelation 13:11-18)

Then, I (John) SAW Another BEAST (The Second Beast) COMING UP OUT of The Earth, and He (The Second Beast) had Two (2) HORNS like A Lamb and SPOKE like A Dragon (Satan).  And He (The Second Beast) EXERCISES All The Authority (from Satan) of The First BEAST in His (The First Beast’s) Presence, and CAUSES The Earth and Those (Unbelievers) who dwell in it (The Earth) to Worship The First BEAST, whose Deadly Wound was HEALED.  He (The Second Beast) Performs Great Signs, so that He (The Second Beast) even MAKES Fire come down FROM Heaven on The Earth in The Sight of Men.

And He (The Second Beast) DECEIVES Those (Unbelievers) who dwell on The Earth by Those Signs, which He (The Second Beast) was GRANTED (by Satan) to do in The Sight of The BEAST (The First Beast), telling Those (Unbelievers) who dwell on The Earth to MAKE AN IMAGE to The BEAST (The First Beast), who was Wounded by The Sword and LIVED.  He (The Second Beast) was GRANTED Power to GIVE Breath to The IMAGE of The BEAST (The First Beast), that The IMAGE of The BEAST (The First Beast) should BOTH Speak and CAUSE as Many as would NOT Worship The IMAGE of The BEAST (The First Beast) TO BE KILLED.

He (The Second Beast) CAUSES All (Unbelievers), BOTH Small and Great, Rich and Poor, Free and Slave, to RECEIVE A MARK, ON Their (Unbelievers) Right Hand OR ON Their (Unbelievers) Foreheads, and that NO ONE may Buy OR Sell EXCEPT One (Unbelievers) who HAS The MARK, OR The Name of The BEAST (The First Beast), OR The Number of His (The First Beast’s) Name.  Here IS WISDOM.  Let Him (Believers) Who has Understanding, CALCULATE The NUMBER of The BEAST (The First Beast), for IT IS The NUMBER of A Man (The First Beast): His (The First Beast’s) NUMBER IS 666.
