You would have to hold to a preteristic view of Revelation to believe that any historically past person was the beast or antichrist referred to in Revelation. I hold to the futuristic, as well as to the pre-Tribulational rapture view which is that the Tribulational period is a future event and that the antichrist or beast, or as Paul referred to him, the man of lawlessness (2 Thess. 2) cannot make his appearance until that which restrains him, which I take to be the indwelling presence of God the Holy Spirit in the Church-age believer, has been removed when the church is raptured. This means that the identity of the beast cannot be known until he makes his appearance at some point after the Church has been removed from the earth.

There is a man of sin in everyone, and Revelation is teaching a person to go all the way to death in the vanity of a false prophet, of a false spirit. Those disciples who wanted to do as Elijah did in his judgment, they wanted to call fire down from heaven on the heads of those who rejected Christ but Christ looks at them and says,'' You speak from your father Satan,'' and this is the spirit Revelation is teaching a person to overcome.


The vanity of a false prophet, and the vanity of the spirit of a son of Satan,'' YOU.''


That pit opened inside YOU.

Many people would rather point the finger as a lone leader figure and say that is the beast , that is antichrist , there is the Babylon harlot , where these are actually fallen angels who grow by the spiritual authority of sin of man , and women , were the land is cursed by people who adopt sin and do not resist the sin ..........Just like this Nero Caesar`s god was a fallen angel as he gave spiritual authority to these devils in the eyes of God, and then the eyes of the devil who witness the sin of the heart of man ............................People give God authority when they worship the Lord ........... Still in the last days were the coming of the Lord Jesus will be a time of apostasy were these fallen angels will have a greater authority in the earth , and Jesus comes to destroy this authority and those who worship the beast and those who have the beast mark and image ..........

interesting to note that Nero was in the "last days," too. So, Christ (or the Lord Jesus, up there)(hmm) comes how, in your view?

Fact--Revelation does not occur until now here in these last days--You have been watching it pass by you, the whole world has, Some know its happening but have 0 clue as to its reality.

You are being lied to--The bible does not teach what you posted. Fact--Rev 14:3-- 144,000 are BOUGHT from the earth, only these are promised heaven. the little flock( luke 12:32) = the anointed, the bride of Christ. The great multitude is not promised heaven anywhere in the bible. Fact--Jesus taught this to the great multitude--Matt 5:5--Blessed are the meek for they will inherit the EARTH. Even the psalmist knew that--Psalm 37:9,11,29)
2Thess 2:3--the man of peredition or the great apostasy= Catholicism popped up, teaching lies from their councils, many false teachings came out of them, and includes the 32,997 branches that popped off--God warned about that=Mark 3:24-26) a house divided( 33,000 trinity religions) will not stand. Most wont believe the bible.
The beast is known, by the only real teachers appointed by Jesus and who believes them.

Revelation occurs to everyone in every single generation who begins a fall walk, you are just looking at Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur which is the second coming of Christ IN YOU if you can overcome the beasts that come to you.


You can write Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur on almost every single chapter of Revelation, it is Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah happening in body, soul, and spirit and these are the seals of the body you wrap a dead man in, and as the first seal is broken, so too do you hear the first voice in your soul, and the first bowl is poured out on your head in the spirit, in a resurrection.
