"Then cometh the end, when he shall have DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down ALL RULE AND ALL AUTHORITY AND POWER. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death."
You can't see the Beast because
1. It has the pronoun "He".
2. The fact of its being worshipped makes you think of religion.
3. You can't picture mankind worshipping Government.
3. You can't picture Christ throwing Government alive into the fire.
@SDSLLC_USA God wants a family. He created the Earth as a garden for growing souls that he can spend eternity with, loving each other just as we do our own family, here in the garden. It's not good for a man to be alone, God said. He understood that perfectly. That's why we're here.
And he [the King of the North] shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy Mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him. Dan 11
Israel does not lead anything in the end times.
They will be conquered by the armies of the Beast, and then the Indignation of the Gentiles will start a clock (Dan 8) of 2,300 days (6.3 years).

@ZeroFox369@ky_statesman They won't think he's Jesus. The Antichrist will spend a lot of his time belittling Jesus. They'll follow him because of that.
"... The king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god ..."
Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.
Through his policy he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many.

I considered the Horns, and, behold, there came up among them another Little Horn, before whom there were three of the first Horns plucked up by the roots:
And, behold, in this Horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
The 4th Beast will be the 4th kingdom, and will be different than all kingdoms, and devour the whole earth, tread it down, and break it in pieces.
The 10 Horns are 10 kings that will arise:
Another will rise after them; he will be different than the first, and subdue 3 kings.

And the Beast was taken, and with him the False Prophet that wrought miracles before him,
with which he deceived them that had received the Mark of the Beast, and them that worshipped his Image.
These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
The following passage was an unsolvable mystery for 2,000 years. It is now unlocked for us, and with it, the False Prophet and the Image:
"And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done. Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things. Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain."
It's time to start stocking up, supplies are gonna start running low. Don't just stock up for yourself though, stock up for others around you, even those you do not know. It's time to bring community back, God has given me the means (money) to stock up big time, so I'm buying as much as I can not for myself but for everyone else. Baby formula, big jugs of water, canned foods, etc. We all need to look out for each other in the coming months. Plan for everyone, not just yourselves. Not everyone is so lucky to have the foresight some of us have. It's time for followers of Christ to show there's still some good in the world.
@Presby1992@PaddyG_ No, he's right. Whatever path of eschatology you're going down, it's from the adversary. All theories along that line are easy to dismiss by reading the prophets and their descriptions of the reign of the King and the battles of Magog.
Please consider.
Go, now, and enjoy life.
Go, eat good food. Spend time and laugh with your friends. Go do something frivolous, something silly, something pointless. Drink wine and make love to your wives.
Because the forecast for tomorrow is rain, and darkness.
Lived my entire life thinking that the world would turn against Israel because the world was evil and Israel was holy.
Those were the days, weren't they?
