Big Nate, the Bible says it is useful for reproach, or correction if you will.
The Bible says the beast is a man.
If someone says pedophilia is Ok, as modern psychology is now starting to do, I will say they are wrong according to the Bible scripture.
The second beast comes from the land and has but 2 horns, like a lamb. He will be the one coming and claiming he comes in the name of the Lord, claiming to be the Lord.
2 Thessalonians 2:9. The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie,
One come blaspheming the Lord and the other will be claiming to be the Lord. They will work in concert to decieve.
I agree we live in a Beast system, but the Bible, which is the subject of the original question, says these beasts are men.
Man, who scripture says is a liar, says the beast is a system. We have been led to believe that.
By all means, if you you are going to "correct" someone, you better have scripture to back it up.
Man can't be trusted. The Bible as you know it, and have studied, has been translated and interpreted. You trust there was no motive to it being written a certain way? Or books being left out?
There's a difference between the beast and the antichrist.
