32. Questions and Answers from Prophecies of Hope

Tonight we're going to start with a warning.

What you are about to hear tonight may be very disturbing.

Tonight we're going to identify who the Antichrist beast of Revelation 13 is.

And for some of you, this topic is gonna be shocking.

For some of you, this topic may be disturbing.

For Some of you here, this is gonna be the most fascinating, prophetic presentation you've ever heard in your whole life.

And for some of you, this topic is simply gonna affirm what you had already known or suspected.

Well, whatever the case may be, I want to assure you tonight that what we're going to present is the truth.

And Jesus tells us we can know the truth.

Jesus says you shall know the truth and the truth will what?

But God does not send the truth to hurt us.

He sends the truth to enlighten us and to save us so that we don't end up worshipping the beast at end time.

And that is 1 of the reasons why God warns us about this beast.

Let's go notice that warning again, Revelation 13, 1-3, the description of this antichrist beast.

Let's notice the description here again, Revelation 13, 1-3.

Revelation 13, 1, and I stood upon the sand of the sea and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having 7 heads and 10 horns, and upon his horns 10 crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

Verse 2, and The beast which I saw was likened to 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 1 of his heads as it were wounded to death, and his deadly wound was healed, and all the world wondered after the beast.

Have you ever seen this animal at the zoo?

Well, we know that this beast is a symbol of the Antichrist.

Virtually all Bible scholars of all churches agree that this is a symbol of the Antichrist.

However, we saw that a beast represents a what?

Daniel 7 verse 23 again he said the fourth beast shall be the fourth what?

So a beast represents a kingdom or a nation.

That means that the Antichrist beast of Revelation 13 has to be some kingdom, not just an evil man at end time, but it also is a kingdom because the beast represents a kingdom.

Let's review those 4 beasts from Daniel 7.

This is a bit of review from part 1 of the Antichrist.

The lion beast with eagle's wings represented what kingdom?

If you missed that, well, you'll want to get the recording or the lesson.

How about the leopard that had 4 heads and 4 wings represented what kingdom?

And the dragon beast with 10 horns symbolized?

It had 10 horns and we knew, we saw that those 10 horns were the 10 divisions that sprang out of the ancient Roman Empire.

Here is a map of those original 10 divisions and we have 7 of those kingdoms with us today.

And 3 have become extinct, the Heruli, the Vandals, and the Ostrogoths.

Prophecy told us why they became extinct.

We saw last time a little horn arose to power, uprooted 3 others.

Let's read that again in review from Daniel 7, verse 8.

Daniel 7, verse 8 says, "'And I considered the horns.'" So what's he looking at?

He's looking at the horns, but the horns represent...

So he's looking over there in Western Europe.

I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another little horn, or little kingdom, before whom there were 3 of the first horns plucked up by the roots.

And behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth speaking great things.

So as Daniel looks over the area of Western Europe where the 10 were located, he sees coming up among the 10, this other little horn that had eyes in it.

And when this little horn arises to power 3 other horns, kingdoms, go.

The question for us tonight is who is this little horn?

That's the question we want to ask tonight.

We found out in part 1 of the Antichrist that the little horn of Daniel 7 and the beast of Revelation 13 both symbolize the same thing.

Both are symbols of the Antichrist, and Daniel wanted to know who this little horn was.

Let's read that again from Daniel 7 verses 19 and 20.

Then I would know the truth, says Daniel, of the fourth beast which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass, which devoured, breaking pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet.

And of the 10 horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom 3 fell, even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellow's." So Daniel says, I want to know the truth about all these things, but especially about that little horn.

Would you like to know the truth of the little horn?

Well, there is a saying that people say sometimes, what I don't know can't hurt me.

Suppose for example that my arteries are getting all clogged up with cholesterol and I don't know it.

And suppose I go to the doctor and he gives me an exam.

He says, Lowell, you have elevated cholesterol levels.

You better change your lifestyle Or you may have a stroke or a heart attack is that good news not at all bad news So what should I do?

I should get mad at the doctor for telling me such unpleasant information, right?

I should be glad that the doctor told me the truth, even though the truth hurt.

Did you ever go to the hospital and the nurse pulls out that syringe and says, this may hurt?
