“Under
various disguises the Jesuits worked their way into offices of State, climbing
up to be the counselors of kings, and shaping the policy of nations.” Great Controversy, p. 235.1.
“And
through his policy also he shall cause craftH4820 to prosper in his
hand.” (Dan. 8:25). H4820 “deceiving”, “fraud”, “delude”, “betray”.
Let’s
take a look at this false prophet, second beast with lamb-like horns, of Revelation
13.
“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.” (Rev. 13:1).
This
beast would be seen again in Revelation 17. Its description would show a few
differences because the beast would be different.
“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.
And
I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; 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, saying, Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with
him?” (Rev. 13:2-4).
Originally,
this beast was thought to be pagan Imperial Rome. But, after a millennium it
was seen as papal Rome, the Holy Roman Empire. The beast was the Vatican, the kings
and the people. Later, as the Reformation brought the Bible back in the
people’s languages, Bible students finally understood the 1,260 year prophecy the
year when the papacy fell to Napoleon in 1798. That discovery was part of what
motivated William Miller as he studied Daniel.
The
United States was young at the time that the papal supremacy ended. 1794 was
President Washington’s and the nation’s first presidential administration. This
we see in the rest of the Revelation 13 vision.
“And
I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a
lamb.” (Rev. 13:11).
Protestant
America had a peaceful start. Two lamb-like horns sound Christ-like because
America was like Jesus. It grew up on the Bible. We were a Protestant, very
Protestant people. When mature, we were born into a nation with a government
that was civil and Protestant. It was civil because it operated without any
denomination’s permission. It was Protestant because it separated religion from
state, and gave freedoms to the people. Self-government characterized both our
Constitution and our Protestant, biblical doctrines. And really, without their
religion being Protestantism, which could provide redemption to the heart and
mind so that the Spirit of God could give each person the love of law, both
spiritual and secular, no government could ever be safe to dare give so much
freedom to its masses to live largely unsupervised under self-governed. We must
be thankful for our Protestant religion, or a total collapse of family and
society is on the way, as our God in Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28 told us
would happen.
Nevertheless,
this angelic beast would act like the dragon, Satan. It would do devilish,
devious things to corrupt its own peaceful people and, surprisingly, to bring the
whole nation under Satan’s complete control. Continuing the Revelation vision…
“…
and he spake as a dragon.
And
he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the
earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly
wound was healed.
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.” (Rev. 13:11-17).
Protestant
America, which was the last heir to the Protestant Reformation, would do the
totally unexpected. It would aid and abet the very enemy of the Bible and
Christianity that it had killed with the sword of the Spirit, the holy
scriptures. Protestantism would nurse the blood-stained, wicked Vatican back to
life, restoring it to its original world supremacy and power of persecution. So
that is where Revelation 17 takes up the vision on the Beast. This part of the
vision shows the Vatican’s final destruction.
The definition of Vatican is:
vat·ic
\ ‘vad·ik\ adj [L vates seer, prophet +
E -ic; akin to OIr fāith seer, poet, OE wōth voice, song, poetry, wōd mad,
raging, OHG wuot frenzy, madness, ON ōthr, n., song, poetry, ōthr, adj.,
frantic, mad, Goth woths possessed] : of, relating to, or characteristic of a
prophet : prophetical, oracular
Webster’s
Third New International Dictionary unabridged, by Merriam-Webster, Publication
Year: 1986
From
“Vatican” we get “seer” (as in “the Holy See”, “the all-seeing eye”), we get
“prophet/poet”. We understand that the Vatican is the last word and final
authority on prophecy (not biblical prophecy, but a “mad”, “raging”, “frantic”,
“frenzy” type of prophecy). We see that the Vatican calls itself the final
authority on “faith” (but not faith in Jesus Christ, but rather faith in
nature, Nimrod, and necromancy/the Necropolis upon which the Vatican is built,
i.e. the faith of wiccan druidism and occult spiritualism.)
“And
there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with
me, saying unto me, Come hither; 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.” (Rev. 17:1,2).
The
woman who sits on the beast also is seen sitting on many waters, and “waters”
is defined in verse 15. “The
waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes,
and nations, and tongues”.
Therefore, the beast also must be interpreted as “peoples, and
multitudes, and nations, and tongues.”
“So he carried me away
in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet
coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten
horns.
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: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.” (Rev. 17:3-6).
This
beast is scarlet, the color of blood, and is under the control of a woman who
is drunken with the saints’ blood. The beast is full of blasphemy because it is
controlled by the great whore who is blasphemy incarnate. The woman is the
Church, and the beast therefore must be the crusading papal armies of
civilians, law-enforcement officers, and regular military troops. Through
various entities the Mother of abominations organized and rewarded everyone who
destroyed her “heretic” and “Arian” enemies. If anyone read the Bible during
the papal supremacy, and disagreed with the Mass or the Trinity or any other
aspect of the Church’s paganized Christianity, you might try to run from them,
but you couldn’t hide from the papal power of interdict. When superstitious
people get scared enough, they will turn in their most beloved, life-long companions.
This
seven headed beast appears like the seven headed beast of Revelation 13, and it
is the same earthly enemy of God. But, the symbolisms change. There was no
woman riding the beast of Revelation 13, and it came out of the Mediterranean
Sea, while the beast of revelation 17 is sitting on a river, out in the desert,
as in Babylon sitting on the Euphrates in modern day Iraq. And the Revelation
13 beast’s seven heads represented the previous empires of: 1) Babylon (one
head), 2) Persia (one head), 3) Greece (four heads), and 4) Imperial Rome (one
head). And the ten horns represented the barbarian tribes that broke up the
Roman Empire. But, in the Revelation 17 beast, the seven heads represent the
seven hills of Rome and a chronological order of the above past empires, plus
the Holy Roman Empire, and also two phases of the American empire, its
constitutional stage and a transitional stage phasing into an eighth head, future
new world order stage. That eighth head is a new part of the beast not
mentioned in Revelation 13.
Evidently,
the seven heads on the beast are not its original head, but extra, additional,
attached, ancillary, auxiliary, supplementary, subsidiary heads. Since the
beast was a composite of previous empires, it makes sense that each empire,
which composed the beast’s body, would also have heads that represented the
various empires. Thus, the seven heads.
Therefore,
the original beast, which existed in history long before Nebuchanezzar’s
Neo-Babylon, would have its own head as well. This explains verse 11. This
beast is very old, existing since the dust of time, before there were any
written histories. And in the thinking of most common people, age gives plausibility
to the beast. Age means wisdom, unchangeability, Satan competing with God the
Father who changeth not. We don’t naturally perceive stubborn rebellion as the
cause of lack of change, especially when the institution is robed in pure
white. Age also means veneration. The suggestion is that we should venerate a
system that is so old, and has stood the test of time, even if it had to
violently force its way through the thousands of years of opposition and civil
and secular attempts to kill this beast for its gross abuse of trust. Age also
attempts to turn error into truth. And it does so in the imagination of those
who can be thus deluded or schmoozed by apparent goodness and innocence. Here
is where the wine of the great whore comes into play, as opposed to keeping the
commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, which is what controls the hearts
and minds of God’s redeemed people. So we have two groups the world over—those who
follow the one false religion of the Vatican with the Mark of the beast, and
those with the Seal of God, who do the hard work of standing before the Law of
God until deep repentance is forthcoming.
Now
for an inside explanation of the beast and how it would work.
“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.
And
here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on
which the woman sitteth.
And
there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet
come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
And
the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and
goeth into perdition.” (Rev. 17:8-11).
The
seven heads represent seven hills and seven kings. The seven hills indicate the
city of Rome. Even though the prophecy uses symbology to interpret the beast as
Babylon and its location, sitting on the Euphrates, its literal interpretation
actually is Rome sitting on the Tiber. Rome sits on the famed seven hills. They
are (from Wikipedia):
Then
the eighth hill is apart from the seven. Wikipedia continues to state:
The Vatican
Hill (Latin Collis Vaticanus)
lying northwest of the Tiber, the Pincian Hill (Latin Mons Pincius), lying to
the north, and the Janiculum Hill (Latin Ianiculum), lying to the west, are not counted among the
traditional Seven Hills.
Below
is Wikipedia’s map.
So,
the seven hills also represent seven time periods, or kingdoms (called
“kings”). This is the most important interpretation of the symbology. It gives
the Bible prophecy student much precious information of the future, our near future. The final head, or the
eighth head is the original beast that returns to view at the end, after an
absence of 4,300 years. In the duration, until that final eighth head shows up,
the seven other heads do their part to impede our Creator and Redeemer from
taking back His human race. After their successful domination of the world, the
original power that began the great apostasy after the worldwide flood, is
ushered back into its ancient glory, a greater glory than Nebuchadnezzar’s,
Cyrus’, Alexander’s, and Caesar’s, all combined. The original world empire was
Nimrod’s.
“And Cush begat Nimrod:
he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the
LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the
LORD. And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad,
and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.” (Gen. 10:8-10).
Then
he went to expand into Asia Minor, building Nineveh and laying the foundation
for the barbarous and evil empire of Assyria.
“Out of that land went forth Asshur
[margin, “Out of that land he went into Assyria”], and builded Nineveh, and the
city Rehoboth, and Calah, and Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the
same is a great city.” (Gen
10:11,12).
Before
Shem and other leaders arraigned Nimrod for tyranny and corruption, this giant dynamo
of a man (even the fourth generation were giant, long-lived people—four
centuries) spear-headed the construction of the Tower of Babel and its attached
city along with three other adjoining cities, and a sister empire of four
cities. Of, course, enslaving the conquered people became a standard for empire
building. Nimrod set that perpetual precedent, which was put asunder when
Protestant America came up to establish peace and righteousness in the earth.
But, once America is overthrown, then, the old enslaving system—of Satan, Ham,
Cush, Nimrod, and Nimrod’s wife Semiramis, the Queen of heaven—will reappear.
The
power brokers of this world are advertizing Nimrod’s empire as “the New World
Order”, but it is only new in relation to Noah’s original world order founded
upon the peace and righteousness that the Lord God ordered immediately after
the worldwide flood. And He ordered it once again as a fruit of the
Reformation, Protestant and Civil America. Thus, the prophecy says the beast that
“was”, later “is not”. But, following the “is not” period, the same beast comes
up out of its hellish dungeon. It was put in the bottomless pit by Providence
and by the sword of the Spirit, when Guttenberg’s first big print job brought
in the hands of thousands of Protestants the Bible in popular languages. And that
Book gave a lethal wound to the beast. But there comes a big turnaround in the
beast’s favor.
“And
I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was
healed.” (Rev. 13:3).
“And
the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and
goeth into perdition.” (Rev. 17:11).
So,
the lethal wound from the word of God caused an intermediate period between the
beast’s eras of free reign— the first era was 2500 BC to 1798 AD and the second
era 1849 AD to the near future. After the era of its deadly wound and its
imprisonment in a bottomless pit in 1798, it receives assistance to resuscitate,
and to arise again to world prominence, blasphemy, deception, and treachery. In
the middle of the Sabbath Conferences of the early Advent movement, the
California Gold Rush occurred, altering the heart of Protestantism, and
beginning the fifth trumpet.
The
bottomless pit was opened and out came a never-ending stream of a dark curse of
torment and, later, death during the sixth trumpet. The third angel’s message
warning against the Mark of the beast is made up of the language of the fifth
and sixth trumpets’ locusts and thick darkness, both working together to be the
alter-ego work of the Advent movement and its work toward the Seal of God.
“Side
by side with the preaching of the gospel, agencies are at work which are but
the medium of lying spirits.” The Desire
of Ages, p. 258 .
“Two
great parties are developed, the worshipers of the beast and his image, and the
worshipers of the true and living God.” Manuscript
Releases, vol. 1, p. 45.
“…and
all the world wondered after the beast.” (Rev. 13:3).
“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).
Then there are the ten horns. The
prophecy is more or less self-explanatory. They are world powers that form an
alliance with the newly ascended, papal remake of the original, Nimrod, lawless
subjugating beast. The alliance is to prevent the Loud Cry of the Latter Rain.
A captivity of God’s people is implied, which is what brings His people to
repentance and humility, for their resurrection to giving the everlasting
gospel to the whole world for a final witness to every nation.
“I
saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was
lightened with his glory.
And
he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is
fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul
spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
For
all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the
kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of
the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” (Rev. 18:1-3).
“And
I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people, that ye
be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
For
her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her
iniquities.
Reward
her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her
works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.” (Rev. 18:4-6).
Then the end will come with the beast
going into perdition, or totally abandoned wickedness.
“And
the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom
as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
These
have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
These
shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord
of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen,
and faithful.” (Rev. 17:12-14).
Revelation
17:12 and 10 explain each other.
“The
ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast” (Rev. 17:12)
aligns with “there
are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.” (Rev. 17:10). That leads me
to believe that the eighth head is the joint Vatican beast with the 10 kings (all
the secular kingdoms of earth), the final Jesuit Vatican. Verse 14 says that
the alliance is against the Lamb and His people. This leads me to think that
the alliance takes place to stop or to prevent the Latter Rain.
Evidently,
there will be an internal conflict between the extreme selfishness and distrust
of the 1st world main power of wickedness, versus its 3rd
world satellite nations—the ten kings, “the peoples, and multitudes, and nations,
and tongues.”
(Rev.
17:15).
“And
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 fulfil His will, and to agree, and
give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.”
(Rev. 17:16,17).
The
wise providence of God seems to repeat the work of His Spirit in ancient Israel
after the death of Gideon (Jerubaal). The men of Israel wanted to bring justice
to 69 of Gideon’s 70 sons, who were slain by their brother, Abimelech and his accessories,
paid for by the men of Shechem. In the end, the alliance caved in as the
followers of Abimilech and the men of Shechem double-crossed each other by the
evil of their own hearts. And they slaughtered each other. Finally, a woman
ended the strife. And afterwards the Israelites were satisfied and went home. So
it came to pass to Israel the sayings, “Because
thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation….”
“…with thine eyes shalt thou behold and
see the reward of the wicked.” (Psa 91:9,8).
“When
Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel,
Then
God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men
of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech:
That
the cruelty done to the threescore and ten sons of Jerubbaal might come, and
their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, which slew them; and upon the
men of Shechem, which aided him in the killing of his brethren.…
And
a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech's head, and all to
brake his skull….
And
when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man
unto his place.
Thus
God rendered the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did unto his father, in
slaying his seventy brethren:
And
all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads: and upon
them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.” (Jdg. 9:22-24,53,55-57).
Likewise
will be the case of God’s people, who are sprinkled around a world, while under
the demonic control of Satan and the despotic tortures of the eighth head
Jesuit papacy. Evil in the decrepit Jesuits and in their accomplice global dictators
will last only so long before its distrust and control implodes upon itself.
The ultimate “good life” turns out to be untenable. “Thou, O God, shalt bring
them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live
out half their days.” (Psa. 55:23). The New World Order and its U.N. Agenda 2030
will only continue “one hour” (Rev. 17:12; 18:10). The league of 10 kings with
the Jesuit Papacy won’t come about until the beast is fully ascended and begun
the condition of satanic possession and lawless perdition. This short period
seems to lay over Jacob’s troubles, after which the nations become angry when
God’s wrath is poured out without mixture.
“One
hour” is symbolic, and the literal could last for weeks or longer. But, God’s
elect must remember the promise, “If any man have an ear, let him hear. He
that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the
sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the
saints.”
(Rev.
13:9,10).
Even if it feels like the tribulation continues forever for God’s
imprisoned, enslaved, or hunted people, for Satan’s elite oligarchy and their satellites,
the lesser, brown shirt oligarchies, the fun will end far too soon. The day of
Christ’s return will surprise them as a thief in the night. The minor 3rd world
oligarchies will, in utter chagrin and horror on that day, turn on the Jesuit
oligarchy whore mother of all whores and of abominations in the earth, bringing
quick revenge on those elite families.
“Those
who a little before were so reckless, so boastful and defiant, so exultant in
their cruelty to God’s commandment-keeping people, are now overwhelmed with
consternation and shuddering in fear. Their wails are heard above the sound of
the elements. Demons acknowledge the deity of Christ and tremble before His
power, while men are supplicating for mercy and groveling in abject terror.” Great Controversy, p. 637.
“Before
His presence ‘all faces are turned into paleness;’ upon the rejecters of God’s
mercy falls the terror of eternal despair. ‘The heart melteth, and the knees
smite together, ... and the faces of them all gather blackness.’ Jeremiah 30:6;
Nahum 2:10. The righteous cry with trembling: “Who shall be able to stand?” Great Controversy, p. 641.
And
this is only a foretaste of a worse state of affairs that will come to the
Jesuit priests and false prophet pastors in the second resurrection just before
the final judgment. “The people see that they have been deluded. They accuse
one another of having led them to destruction; but all unite in heaping their
bitterest condemnation upon the ministers. Unfaithful pastors have prophesied
smooth things; they have led their hearers to make void the law of God and to persecute
those who would keep it holy. Now, in their despair, these teachers confess
before the world their work of deception. The multitudes are filled with fury. ‘We
are lost!’ they cry, “and you are the cause of our ruin;” and they turn upon
the false shepherds. The very ones that once admired them most will pronounce
the most dreadful curses upon them. The very hands that once crowned them with
laurels will be raised for their destruction. The swords which were to slay
God’s people are now employed to destroy their enemies. Everywhere there is
strife and bloodshed.” Great Controversy,
p. 655.
Why
do I quote the above statement above? What does that have to do with the corona
virus?
It’s
obvious to me that with the Vatican growing ever so popular and warmly welcome
into Protestant embraces, that the Jesuits have, for probably a hundred years
or more, been climbing up to high places in every field of business: government,
banking and treasury, denominational, hospital and health related government
positions, controlling positions of food and water, pharmaceutical,
communications, weather, media of every sort, internet and email and website
control, et cetera. They have been shaping the policy of our nation. If all of
that was their practice during the dark ages, and if they were amazingly
successful at it for undermining kingdoms and overthrowing heretical (Protestant)
governments, and those that were non-submissive to the aims of the Papacy, then
why would they not still be doing the same today?
Why
would it not have been the Jesuits who accomplished 9/11 and the 2008 robbery
of America’s last $700B liquid cash, both with amazing success and deception?
Why not another ruse with the same power of suggestion and sleight of hand with
a “pandemic”? They have control over the world. How much longer are we going to
trust in man, as increasingly our “heart
departeth from the LORD”
(Jer. 17:5)? When are we going to go back to trusting in our Lord?
Are
you getting hood-winked again? That’s the question of the hour. Are you getting
hood-winked with an imaginary pandemic? Did you tell yourself never to be
hood-winked again after 9/11, when the government officials rejected the
testimonies of bombs exploding inside the World Trade Center buildings #1 and
#2? What made building #7 fall straight down into its already exploded
basement, just like the two big buildings, when building #7 was a football
field distant from buildings #1 and #2? Building #7 wasn’t hit by anything, yet
somehow it had a few small fires with someone inside fanning the flames, trying
his hardest to start something that would look worthy of a collapse.
And
a collapse did happen, but not until after the world’s viewers were saturated
and exhausted with watching continuous reruns of the collapsing two big
sky-scrapers, and the world turned off their TVs and computer monitors (a
psychological maneuver?). The cameramen were told to pack up and go home. So a
very small percentage of the America public knows that a third building came
down with bombs exploding in it also—a third demolition job on September 11,
2001. Shouldn’t that day of deception speak volumes concerning the current
exaggerated plague hitting the world? If it took one brave young man to risk
his life to alert the American people that their phone calls were not private
anymore, because the NSA had been collecting personal data on every cell phone
for 10 years, then why should we trust what the media is saying today? Why let
the people who have been entrusted with the well-being of this country betray
us again as we see our nation slowly but systematically is being taking down,
along with every other country in the world? What is coming next from this pandemic deception? A global inoculation of the real disease, a potent dose that kills all ages and even people of good immune systems?

unrighteousness.” (2Thess. 2:8-12).

day of God Almighty.

he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the
earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly
wound was healed.
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.” (Rev. 13:11-14).
