THE TWO BEASTS OF REVELATION 13: THE FIRST BEAST by Jeff Wingo

The Revelation of St John: The Sea Monster and the Beast with the Lambs Horn, from a woodcut by Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528). {1}

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.  And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
Revelation 13:1,2

Here, the Apostle John is standing on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea from a vantage point on the Isle of Patmos. And rising from the stirring depths is a beast with seven heads and ten horns; and on the horns are ten crowns.

This must have been an amazing sight, and a horrifying aspect of this vision is that the heads of the beast  are marked with blasphemy that is directed to the God of heaven. Later in the chapter we learn that the followers of the Beast will also be marked on either their right hand or forehead as a sign of allegiance to the Beast and his kingdom of Babylon the Great.
Note that the Beast rises from the bottom of the sea. The ancients believed the abyss, or pit of hell, to be located under the seas; and that is precisely where we see the Beast rise from.
This first Beast is the Beast from the abyss:
  • And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. Rev.11:7
 Here we see that the Beast kills the Two Witnesses, and it is the same Beast that ascends out of the abyss or bottomless pit. John once again points to the Beast and its point of origin.
  • The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. Rev. 17:8

Two times this Beast, who is the final end-time Antichrist, is revealed to be the same Beast that rises from the bottomless pit. And yet John also provides one more clue that reveals the identity if the final end-time Antichrist.

  • And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. Rev.9:11

Here is the Antichrist folks, there is no other Antichrist than the one revealed in the book of Revelation. In other words, no human being will fulfill this role–no president, politician, pope, or imam will be the final end-time Antichrist Beast.

I call the Antichrist, the Antichrist Beast, because in the book of Revelation he is known only as the Beast. John never calls him the Antichrist. That moniker comes from popular culture, the movies, TV, and books on the subject. But in the Bible, specifically by the Apostle John, he is only referred to as the Beast (John does use the term “antichrist,” although in a more doctrinal sense, in his books of 1,2, and 3 John–that will be for a later post).

He is a fallen angel  presently incarcerated in the dark inner chambers of our planet which the Bible calls, the Abyss. It is the well or cistern of the abyss and is actually a separate chamber from the abyss itself; the well of the abyss. That is where the Antichrist Beast is currently chained in darkness; and when God decides it is time for the Great Tribulation to begin the Antichrist Beast will be revealed to the world.

Don’t be deceived by the popular culture–they will point to an individual, usually a religious leader or a crooked politician and say, “That’s the Antichrist!” No it’s not! No human being will be the final Antichrist except the Beast who rises from the bottom of the sea, from the well of the abyss. And his name is Apollyon and Abaddon, meaning destroyer and place of destruction.

As I wrote in a post earlier this month, the Antichrist Beast will rise from the abyss and become a Warrior-King. His one main objective is to seize control of this planet from the evil men and seducers who currently run the asylum. The Elite, or Illuminati, or, whatever they choose to call themselves these days, only think they run the planet. There is a hidden hand ruling through them, a dark figure that usually remains in the shadows: the Prince of the Power of the Air, also known as Lucifer. The fallen cherub is the hidden hand that will give the world system what it desires most of all–a “god” in the flesh called Destroyer.

If you would like know more about the Antichrist Beast and Babylon the Great, then I recommend my book, Alien Antichrist: The Terrifying Truth about UFOs and Aliens, Antichrist, and the End of Days.  It explains all of this in greater detail.

In my next post I will discuss the Second Beast of Revelation 13, the False Prophet.

Please pray for me as I have been ill for about two weeks with an especially wicked case of the flu. I am still trying to recover from it.

Thanks for visiting.
