12. The Beasts of "Revelation"
«And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: (First Jewish Church of God with 12 patriarchs). And she is being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.  

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads (the Satan); And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth (The third part of angels followed Satan in his rebellion, at this time the heavenly ”sanctuary was cast down and profaned” Dan.8:11): and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born (parallelism: Satan was trying to kill baby Jesus by king Herod right after He was born and Satan was trying to kill Christian belief by severe prosecution of Christians right after Christianity was born).

And she brought forth a man child (Jesus Christ and his doctrine), who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne (resurrection of Jesus). And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, to be fed by them there a thousand two hundred and threescore days (from 606 till 1849 – the years of obscurantism of the little horn, the Christian church was "under ground").

And there was war in heaven: Michael (Jesus Christ –see Who was Jesus before He came first time?) and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (In 1849-50 Satan with his angels were thrown down to the earth).

And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ (the heavenly sanctuary was cleansed and Jesus became the king of the heavenly kingdom); for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.  

Therefore rejoice ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhibiters of the earth and of the sea! (The opening of the seals). For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman (The opening of the 1st seal- The preparation for the antichrist had started. The fallen angels began to whisper to Blavatsky, Baily, Hall and others the New Age ideas), which brought forth the man child (Judaic and Christian churches).

And the woman was given two wings of a great eagle (to be carried by eagle wings means to be under protection of God.  Look Ex.19:4, Deut.32:11), that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. (360 + 720+ 180 =1260 days =3,5 years of the government of Antichrist. An eagle wings can be also mean that in the time of prosecution by Antichrist the church will be preserved only in USA (eagle)).

And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood («waters» in the Bible mean: a lot of people, from mouth of Satan – means: many antichrist’s followers, who will prosecute the believers). And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth (all wicked will die).

And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed (i.e. after the thousand years – we will discuss it later), which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ».

So, the red dragon with 7 heads and 10 horns and 
7 diadems
on his heads – it is the Satan himself.

As we saw in the last lesson the beast with 7 heads already exists. It is NATO. After the opening of the 6-th seal (the great world destruction)  NATO will pass the power to the 10 horns (world government of 10 – United Nations).

 And I …saw a beast rise up out of the sea (sea – nations, it is an earthly government), having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns (horn is a person- see p.4. Crown – symbol of authority. These are 10 individuals in power),  and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard (most European countries), and his feet were as the feet of a bear (Russia), and his mouth as the mouth of a lion (Great Britain): and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death (a one country will have a worst condition after the passing planet X); and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast… and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months (the same time Daniel told about - 0,5 week of power of antichrist. That means the 10 horns will have crowns, or UN will be in power the same time as antichrist will do). And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations (UN is world government)» (13:1-7).

The antichrist represented in Revelation as two horn beast. He will demonstrate his power in the time of the government of 10 horns (UN).
 
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb (it will be a Christian leader, who will imitate Jesus – lamb –Rev.5:6), and he spake as a dragon (speaks very deceiving as Satan himself). And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him (he actually will have all power in UN), and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast (he will say, that UN is unique, it is world government appointed by God)  - , whose deadly wound was healed (one or more countries will recover)… And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast, saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six»(13:11-18).

Thus, we have the woman – the true church of God; the dragon with 7 heads, 10 horns and 7 diadems on his heads – Satan; the beast with 7 heads, 10 horns and 10 crowns on his horns – NATO with UN; and the beast with two horns – the antichrist. Another personage is the Whore of Babylon.
                          
        
               13. The Whore of Babylon. Who is she?

In chapter 17 the angel told John «I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication... and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.. (as you will see later there is the parallelism-  there is the beast with 7 heads and 10 horns which we already saw – it is today government of NATO and UN before all power (crowns) will be given to UN, before the opening of the 6-th seal; and red dragon with 7 heads and 10 horns, who is Satan.) And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus» (17:1-6)

 «..The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.... 

And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth» (15-18)

«...Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils...... and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.... Alas, alas that great city..., for in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster and all the company in ships … stood afar off, and cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, what city is like unto this great city! ... And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth» (chapter 18).

Some people think that Babylon in John's prophecy is real Babylon, which was on the territory of modern Iraq, and it will be ostensibly revived by the end of time. This point of view is far from the truth. Real Babylon of the 4th century BC is called in the Bible «a golden cup in the Lord’s hand» (Jer.51:7), while Babylon of the last days is woman holding a golden cup in her hand.

The prophet said about real Babylon: «
it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation... As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein...» (Jer.50:39, 40).  Everything happened as it had been predicted. The prophecy given in the 4th century BC is correct up to now: Sodom, Gomorrah, and Babylon are the desert till this day.

The Prophecy says about Babylon that it is "mystery", that means: mankind will clearly realize what Babylon is only by the end of time, when she will seat on the beast with 7 heads and 10 horns. And just now, having all historical information, we can assert that Babylon is Roman Catholic church with the center in city of Vatican, who seats on the beast with 7 heads (NATO. Almost all Europe, the half of Canada and part of USA are catholic), and who is the only one church - "permanent observer" in UN (10 horns).

The red - Catholic countries, violet - Protestant, orange- Orthodox, green- Muslim. We see that all Europe (the beast with 7 heads) is Catholic.

 Besides that "Revelation" gave us specific details about Babylon:    

1) As we saw above, there in prophecies the image of a woman means: church. The “woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet” is True God’s Church. The woman clothed “in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations” is  False church.

2) «Great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth». Only city of Rome (Vatican) ever ruled over the kings. Thus in 712 Roman Church refused to recognize the new Eastern Roman emperor Philippikos (Philippicus, Bardanes) because of his belief (Monothelitism). That caused the rebelion and in 713 the emperor was dethroned.

In 751 pope Zachary had ended Merovingian dynasty of Frankish kings who ruled from the fifth to the eighth century and had put on the throne of Franks new king - Pepin the Short, who started the new dynasty. From that point on Vatican had the right to appoint kings according to its own goals. There wasn’t a coronation without the church  approving.

3) «The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth» (17:9). Rome was always known, as the city of 7 hills: “It is within the city of Rome, called the city of seven hills, that the entire area of Vatican State proper is now confined” (*The Catholic Encyclopedia, Thomas Nelson, 1976, “Rome”);

4) The prostitute Babylon is near water (all the workers of the sea see smoke from her fire) –the sate Vatican located in the city of Rome, on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea and Tiber river; 

 5) Babylon is the center of arts, where «And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee..»(18:22). Rome (Vatican) has incomparable treasures of culture: the Sixtine Chapel with the frescos of Michelangelo, the works of Raphael, and the foremen of the Italian renaissance, one of the richest libraries of the world and others ancient treasures;   

6) The prostitute Babylon is rich. It is widely known that Vatican is richest organization in the whole world;

 7) About who if not about the Roman Catholic Church it is said: «for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived». Catholic church is worldwide church;

 8) “in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth” It is only Roman Catholic Church who is guilty in the mass prosecution of saints.

9) and finally: is this a coincidence the symbol of the Roman Catholic Church is a woman with a cup in her hand?

 Today Vatican is the spiritual instructor of the international union –UN, and thus influences the whole world. 

    

The Holy See is the only religious body with permanent observer status at the United Nations. This position was granted in 1964 to Vatican state (The Vatican is considered to be a non-member State permanent observer on exactly the same status as Switzerland, which means that it has a seat in the General Assembly of UN).

 

After the opening of the 6-th seal all governments of the world will collapse and UN will take a control. For 3,5 years it will not demonstrate its power, it will be just a mechanism of regulation of the situation: the regulation of criminal activity, the work of reconstruction of cities. Later, as roman emperors in antiquity, UN will come to conclusion that for keeping peace in the world all nations have to be united under one religion, under one religious leader. This point already has been discussed in UN for a couple years.

However to unite all religions under one – catholic- is impossible. In order to unite all religions of the world there has to be a some common element for all religions, there has to be no conflicts. Vatican doesn’t fit in this scenario: for the long time of its existence it collected many conflicts with Jews, protestants and Muslims. It has to be a new religion with a new religious leader and new religious center. Only Jerusalem can be the center of a new religion, because Jerusalem is holy site and for Jews, and for Muslims, and for protestants, and for Catholics and for New agers.  UN wants to put the new world religious leader on the throne in the temple of Jerusalem. That is why «the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.; For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled» (17:16-17).

Thus, somehow UN will manage to burn Vatican and right after that it will give the power to the Antichrist. Jerusalem will become the world religious center, in contradistinction to the out-of-date Catholic center in Vatican.

 «…Shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the Lord’s house. Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will do judgment upon her (Babylon) graven images…» (Jer. 51:51).  

«And arms shall stand on his (the Antichrist) part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate....» (Dan.11:31).

When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place… Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains” ( Mat.24:15,16; Mark 13:14; Luke 21:20,21).

They have blown the trumpet The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine within… But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys (it is the same as “flee into the mountains”)… They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them;… My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place (the sanctuary): for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it” (Ezek.7:14-18,22).

As most prophecies of Old Testament which were given before  the Babylonian invasion these prophecies also are built on the principle of parallelism, and they were true for that time and they will be true for the last days. The images of trumpets and cups (or bowls) of an anger given in these prophecies are the key for understanding the order when in the last days it will take place.

So the prophecies clearly said that the Antichrist will be in power for one week.  He will reach the power with 10 "horns". In the beginning of his 7-year's government wars and criminal will disappear, antichrist will make a 7 years peace treaty with Jewish government. The peace treaty will probably include some points which will reunite both religions: of Jews and of Muslims, therefore some concessions  will be made on the part of religious leaders by a sacrificing some of the God’s commandments. In that time Vatican will be burned up and the temple in Jerusalem will be built.  After 3,5 years the antichrist will break the treaty, will surround Jerusalem , pollute the sanctuary by seating on the throne as God Himself. Some people will run from the prosecution to the mountains. In the day of occupation of Jerusalem  the first trumpet will begin to sound

                               
14. The Trumpets of “Revelation”

That will be the beginning of the “great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Mat.24:21, Mark 13:19, Dan.12:1), it will continue “a time, and times, and half a time” (Dan.12:7; persecution of the church - Rev.12:14), the time of the power the antichrist - “half of the week”  (Dan.9:27), “forty and two months” (of occupation of Jerusalem- Rev.13:5), or 1260 days of two prophets (Rev.11:3).

Behold, I will refine them and try them. For shall I deal with the daughter of My people?…Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?… I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins” (Jer.9:7,9,11).

 « For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city which is called by my name » (Jer.25:29)

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?” (1Pet.4:17).  «Slay utterly old and young… but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary» (Ezek.9:6). Thus, as the judgment was at first in Heaven and after – on the Earth. It will be at first in Jerusalem and after on all Earth. At first – in a church, after – in the world.

The 1st trumpet - the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up (Rev.8:7);

I will take up a ..wailing for the …dwelling places of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that no one can pass through: no can men hear the voice of the cattle. Both the birds of the heavens and the beasts have fled. They are gone” (Jer.9:10).

The 2nd trumpet - the third part of the sea became blood; and the third part of the sea creatures died (Rev.8:8);
«The sea and the waves roaring» (Luke 21:25).

The 3rd trumpet - the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter (Rev.8:10).
The LORD our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD” (Jer.8:14).  
I will feed them, this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink”(Jer.9:15).

The 4th trumpet - the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise (Rev.8:12).
«I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light» (Jer.4:23)
« And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations... Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken» (Luke 21:25,26)

The 5th trumpet- The power over the bottomless pit is given to Satan, he (Rev.9:1, Isa.14:12) receives the key of it and releases the locusts  (these are the Satan’s creations whom he and his angels created by genetic experimentations. These are the creations the world mythology is talking about. These are the creatures who today represent themselves as aliens from other planets).  And it was commanded to them that they should not hurt the grass or any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads (it’s clear: they are not real locusts, but thinking creatures)… and their torment will be as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And to them it was given that they will not kill people, but they will tortured them for five months (Rev.9:1-12).
“For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, saith the LORD” (Jer.8:17).

The 6th trumpet – a great war, in which 1/3 of the people will die. Strange warriors will take part in this war (Joel 2:1-10 and Rev.9:19). It is the army of Satan, demons and fallen angels - «the host of the high ones that are on high» (Isa.24:21), the so called “aliens”, space brothers from “Galaxy Federation”, whom New Agers communicate with today (about them - the last chapter).
