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

The Beasts (the Anti-Christ and the False Prophet) will be 2 powerful people who will be empowered by Satan.
2 Thessalonians 2:1-4

The Anti-Christ will be a world government leader, possibly a dictator, but definitely a hater of the Jewish faith and people. He will target those who believe in Jesus. Daniel 11:32-35. The Anti-Christ will be his own religion but Satan incarnate.

The Anti-Christ will be a vile, evil person who will present himself as a replacement for Jesus. Scripture refers to him as the Lawless One and the Son of Perdition. 2 Thess 2:3, 8

Daniel 11:21 “And in his place shall arise a vile person, to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably and seize the kingdom by intrigue.”
See also Daniel 11:36 and 2 Thess 2:3-4

He will deceptively promise peace, but he will actually be in partnership with Satan. The Anti-Christ will sit in the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem and claim to be God and demand to be worshipped. Matthew 24, Revelation 11. We won’t know who the Anti-Christ is until the tribulation. The first 3 1/2 years of the tribulation will see the rise of the Anti-Christ, and the last 3 1/2 years will be the abomination of desolation.

The Anti-Christ will try to deceive people from trusting in and serving God, and there will be an outpouring of spiritual deception to get the world to rebel against God. 1 John 2:15-18

The Mark of the Beast will be submission to and recognition of the Anti-Christ as Lord and will be the basis of God’s wrath to be poured out, Revelation 16:1-2, 8-11, as well as the rejection of Jesus and the Bible, Rev 14:9-12.

The False Prophet will appear as a worldwide religious leader who will be able to do great signs and wonders. He will cause the entire world to accept the Mark of the Beast.Rev 13:11-18, Rev 19:20-21

People will be forced to take the Mark of the Beast in order to buy or sell, Rev 13:16-17.

The anti-Christ will rise up out the great falling away and he will establish a false church, opposed to the Lord. There's a good possibility that he will be a religious leader who is respected by all faiths. Possibly a renegade pope?
We're in a stage now where Christianity is being knocked down at every turn. Churches all over are turning to false beliefs like supporting homosexuality. We could very well be in this great falling away right now.

The Bible says that in those days people will throw their silver and gold in the streets because it will be worthless. I'm thinking that 'gold' can now be translated as cryptocurrency.

Eze 7:19 They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will be an unclean thing. Their silver and gold will not be able to save them in the day of the LORD's wrath. They will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it, for it has made them stumble into sin.

There are already many antichrists.
The beast(s) are not on the scene yet, however the beast system is active.

Most preachers think that it has to be one or the other.
Some verses speak of one and other verses, the system.
Context reveals which is which.
Both exist, or will exist in the proper time.

Maybe non-binary

Some people nowadays continue to be challenged when the teachings in the Bible are contradicted by reason and experience. Slavery is a prime example; “Love your neighbor as yourself” doesn’t leave a whole lotta room for owning other human beings and enslaving them. But the American South had the Bible on their side. The Bible admonished slaves to submit to their masters; and the Bible considered slavery to be part of the divine order of things. But we now know better.

We don’t execute adulterers, we don’t execute those who break the Sabbath, and we don’t execute rebellious children. We don’t exclude women from church services because they’re on their period, and we don’t exclude men from church services because they’re crippled. But all of this is commanded in the Bible.

Women should be silent in church, not even permitted to speak in church, and they shouldn’t even be allowed to teach in church…?
People should obey the government…?
Slaves should sincerely obey their masters…?
We are all admonished to abide by these things in the Bible.

We know a thing or two nowadays that Moses and the Apostle Paul didn’t know, and we proceed accordingly.

To me, as far as “Christianity is being knocked down at every turn”…some ‘Christian’s’ are doin’ more damage to the cause of Jesus than not only gays are, but that Satan Himself is. Christianity is gonna continue hemorrhaging members at an unprecedented rate, and it’s not gonna be because of gays.

I’m glad that God doesn’t cherry-pick the way some ‘Christians’ do, and I'm glad that Jesus wasn't too busy polishing His halo to come down here and put his feet on the ground and interact in a constructive way with ALL of us sinners.

Or was it a 10 headed beast with 7 horns? I read it a long time ago but it seemed to me to be the latter. I could be mistaken. But either way it would be a helluva trophy to mount on your wall.

Seriously, what does this whole thread have to do with anything Jesus taught us to do?

At no time does the Bible condone slavery. It accepts it as a fact of life and it gives rules for slaves and owners to live by but it doesn't say it's good or proper.
Paul gave rules for women that, for his time, were very liberal. He allowed women to be in church, for example. The Jews didn't do that. Their temple had a court of women and they weren't allowed to go in any farther than that.

No, homosexuality won't be the make or break sin but it's an example of how churches are allowing sin to creep in. It's a symptom of what's going on.

Isa 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.

con·done
/kənˈdōn/

Not according to the Muslims.

Enoch was a righteous man and not a Christian, 'caught up to heaven'......

Able also a righteous man and not Christian.............

That was then.................

Enoch, Abel, Abraham, etc. were saved by what Jesus would do later. In the OT they're called righteous, meaning believers in God. It was through faith then, just as it is now. They didn't know Jesus by name but faith in God saved them through the blood that Jesus would shed later.
Muslims? Bhuddists? John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No-one comes to the Father except through me.

BUT: Jesus also said that whoever knocks, the door will be opened. God's will is that everyone will be saved and he made that possible. We don't know how, but Muslims and the rest can be saved through Jesus.

Im thinking it could be referring to any form of money the NWO Bolshevick cabal has fought and killed and schemed for.

The love of money.....

When that day comes our Federal Reserve Notes will be worthless for more than ass wipe, which is slightly less than what it's worth now.

Yes, by rejecting Muhammad and accepting and believing and saying with their mouth that JESUS CHRIST is Lord and Gods son born of the virgin Mary and that HE shed HIS blood to cleanse us of our sins and that HE defeated death and arose again.

It could prove worthwhile for many to pray for HIM to enter into their heart and to help them to believe in HIM.

If you dont believe HIS sacrifice can cleanse you of your sins then you must believe HE suffered and died in vain and that you have no hope and are lost.

Pray you Believe you are worthy by HIS sacrifice.

Pray you can be led to believe the truth, which is, that is how much HE loves you. HE loves you more than you love yourself or your own son. Thats why HE gave HIS son, JESUS Christ to die to save you, that you could have everlasting life with HIM, your Father, in Heaven.

Amen.

Hhmmmm!!!!!

Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.”

It's clear that there are many in the world who never hear of Jesus. Yet Jesus did say that it's God's will that none should perish. He has a way that they can be saved but the Bible doesn't say how, only that it's by Jesus' blood even though they've never heard of him. Romans also says that God calls those who he foreknows will respond. Possibly he takes that as their choice, knowing that if they heard, they would believe.

You all think you are good christian`s but you support the beast which is trump.

Whenever someone says to me they are a christian I check to make sure I still have my wallet and check the silverware.

You mouth the words you type the words, but you support the unholy one. The one who is trying to tear this country apart.

You have all been blinded by the cult of personality and the charisma of trump the unholy. The path with trump lead to destruction.

You have all been convinced that truth is lie and lie is truth. May God have mercy for all of you.

And some tards say Joe Biden is the devil.
Looks like you're the flipside of that coin.
