Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire For Believers: Is the Biblical Beast

A man?

No.

Correct.

A system. But we have no idea what it is.

It’s a beast, disguised as a man.....

Shouldn't we be talking about tuna cans? That seems important.

Not a man. Serious implications that it's the catholic church.

I think it's a man. Isn't that what Revelation says?

The Biblical description that we have of him certainly has human characteristics. He'll be full of the devil that's for sure

As to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we beg you, brothers and sisters, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as though from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is already here. Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first and the lawless one is revealed, the one destined for destruction. He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God.
— 2 Thessalonians 2:1–4

A computer or a system can't sit in the temple or declare itself to be God. It's a man.

I'm reading, Angels, God's Secret Agents, by Billy Graham.

Interesting insight to matters such as this.

Revelation 13:4 describes him as a "him" apparently in the form of a person

Sounds painful

It’s some guy down in S.Florida with a Honda Ruckus with a 12pk strapped to it.

Possibly an alien. Green kind, not brown swimmer type.

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.


Key word......................perdition. Who was the son of perdition? Figure that out and then you will know. The lawless one doesn't do it justice and it will take some O.T. search to know who it is.

We have been operating in the beast system for a very long time. But seeing through illusions is not easy.

That's what he's going to say when that 5th angel pours out his bowl on his seat. It'll be so bad he'll chew on his tongue. But until then he'll actually be extremely well liked and received. The whole world will be in awe of him

Maybe Deflave?
