THE FIRST AND SECOND BEASTS

• Revelation 17:1, the great whore who rides the confederacy of beasts sits upon many waters. 

• Verse 18; she symbolizes a great city that rules over the kings of the earth.

•  Verse 15; this city is headquarters to a vast international system.

• Verse 9; the city sits on seven hills. (Hint: Rome sits on seven hills) 

• Verse 4; she is arrayed in purple and red. (Hint: Cardinals are arrayed in red, Archbishops in purple).

• Verse 12; the Beast has the authority of ten rulers.

• Verse 3; the Beast is red.

The Beast is red. "Socialism" has always been associated with red. May I suggest that the red seven headed, ten-horned confederacy of political and religious kingdoms that rise up from the sea is Socialism? Hint #1: When the Pope met with Castro in 1999, the New York Times editorial page had the headline: "Castro: The Pope is on our Side." Hint #2: former head of the dreaded Soviet KGB, Mikhail Gorbachev, in a speech at Rome's Sapienza University on April 10, 2000, said Pope John Paul II was "the most important socialist in the world." Another hint: Symbolically, the "sea" refers to people according to Revelation 17:15.  Even today we use the phrase "sea of humanity" to refer to large multitudes of people. Today's overwhelming flood (to paraphrase Rev 12:15) of humanity is demanding socialist benefits and they are using democracies to enslave us.

If you have a worker authorization number and live in a nation that has already adapted all planks of the Communist Manifesto, and where more than 50% of the Gross National Product is spent by local, state and federal governments, then you are enslaved to support an endless line of socialists. If you spend more on federal, state and local taxes then you do for your own food, shelter, clothing and medical care, then you either accept Communism by doing nothing, or you do not accept it.

The second Beast of Revelation 13 is more difficult to identify. We know that a two-horned second Beast that comes up from the land exercises the authority of the red ten-horned first Beast that came up from the sea and uses a Mark-Name-Number system to monitor buying and selling. In verse 12; it has worldwide influence. We know that military power is involved because of verses 4b, 7, 13 & 14, as well as trampling and crushing the whole earth per Dan 7:24. It can use military power on behalf of the first Beast in order to deceive many. Military power is involved somehow, even if it is behind the scenes Marital Law or a foreign takeover of some government functions, or even if it was the brutality of the now ancient Roman Empire.
 

[Aside: Although we are living in a time when the military can make fire come down from heaven in the sight of men, this might not mean much to you, because you don't understand the threat. The IMF has imposed austerity programs on nations delinquent on their debt payments. Governments have been forced by Treaty to number their citizens. Here in America, the GATT Treaty requires your Government to issue Social Security Numbers to newborns. The United States is the world's largest debtor nation. Your national debt is more than you are worth. Is it too far fetched to suppose the creditors could enforce their collection with military force?]

I have avoided identifying specific Beast powers because I don't have proof. But since I get so much mail on the topic, I'll disclose my thoughts: The two-horned Beast (Rev 13:11) issues the Mark to those who worship the seven headed ten horned Beast. "Beasts" symbolize Kingdoms (Dan 7:23,18,22,24 and Rev 17:17). "Horns" symbolize Kings, Dynasties, or perhaps personified governments (Daniel 7:24, 8:20 and Revelation 17:12). The two-horned second Beast that issues the Mark speaks as a Dragon. One horn is probably the Department of the Treasury (which is not a part of the US government. The Treaty of Paris, kept the treasury authority within the Holy Roman Empire). The Department of the Treasury, not the Social Security Administration, issues SSNs to authorize you to buy or sell. This will eventually be backed up by an international military authority to enforce the collection of their collateral. The other horn is, or will become, the EEC, which has already, through the GATT Treaty, forced the U.S. Congress to require SSNs at birth. Notice that both these powers rose up from the earth to regulate commerce, both get their power from Rome, and both are involved in issuing Social Security Numbers.

As I said, I don't have proof of the identity of the two-horned second Beast. I've heard many well-researched claims involving the U.N., the United States (sometimes symbolized by a two-horned Buffalo), Britain, Prince Charles, Islamic banking, the Knights Templar, and the Tribe of Dan.  Some people insist that the two lamb-like horns prove that it must be a Church. All these claims have merit. There is no proof who it is. If beast powers, such as the Department of the Treasury or the EEC, or the U.N., or the IMF or their creditors, are requiring you to be numbered and are related to a two horned military power, then the time is at hand. Let's take a closer look.

Here are a few hints about deceptive worldwide military authority that has deceived many and involves red (socialistic) confederation of Beast powers:

• The General of the U.N. military has always been and will always be a Russian. 

•  U.S. soldiers must now serve under this Russian led U.N. command even though they, like PFC Michael New, swear Oaths to defend a Constitution that requires the President to be Commander in Chief.

• Also keep in mind that the highest-ranking man in the Pentagon was General Sahlikashvili. He was born in the Soviet Union.

• Former head of the dreaded Soviet KGB, Mikhail Gorbachev, now lives in the U.S. on an American military base that is also the headquarters of the United Religions Organization. He is here to preside over the dismantling of your American military bases pursuant to your Public Law 101-216. [This should give you an insight to President Kennedy's use of the terminology: "international control" in Public Law 87-297 "Arms Control and Disarmament Act" Section 3A]. 

• The yellow fringed U.S. flag that you see in your local Courtrooms is not the flag authorized by Congress. According to Title 4 of the U.S. Code, only military authority can display the yellow fringe. I offer this as a hint that your Nation has already been surrendered to military powers. Later, I will show that this authority is related to the same brutal Roman occupation forces that fed Christians to the lions, and executed my King, and used the force of law to kill the baby boys in Bethlehem, and are now involved in issuing Social Security Numbers.

• And, U.N. troops are now working in federal prisons within the U.S.. On July 17, 1998 the International Criminal Court Statute of Rome created the World Criminal Court to enforce International Law. The Statute claims jurisdiction over all citizens of the world even if their countries have not approved the Statute.

Perhaps you now have more respect for the second Beast's military power. Perhaps you were unaware that the anti-Christian Soviets were involved with your military decisions. Perhaps you were unaware of the Untied Religions Organization. Perhaps you were unaware that your local courtrooms are under military control. Perhaps you welcome Soviet iron fists in your local courthouse pursuing their long-term goal of eliminating all religions. Perhaps not.

The second Beast demands worship. The worship is very subtle, but it is indeed worship prohibited by God in His first and second Commandments. "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them." Much like the ancient Roman requirement to burn incense to their gods, the modern requirement for oaths (either in court or a perjury oath on federal forms) is nevertheless worship of a counterfeit god, contrary to the first Commandment. As we shall see, it is nearly impossible for a Christian to avoid worshiping the Beast and still have a right to buy and sell.
