Revelation 13: 1-9

The beast that rose from the sea

1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise from the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet as of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority.
3 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.
4 And they worshiped the dragon which gave the beast his power; and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast? Who can make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them; and given him power over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And loved it all that dwell upon the earth, whose names are not written in the Lamb's book of life who was slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.


In order to understand what the symbolism of the seven heads and ten horns, cited in Revelation 13.1, we must understand the historical period that the Christian communities of the time were living. Chapter 13 of Revelation reflects the situation at the time the domination of the Roman Empire and this chapter criticizes this domination. It is the time of the Emperor Domitian (A.D. 81-96), in which the Christian communities throughout the empire began to be persecuted, excluded and oppressed. And this chapter 13 the central figure is the beast as representing the Roman Empire, oppression and persecution of Christian communities. So the beast has ten horns and seven heads are explained in Rev 17,9 -12. In Revelation 17: 9 The seven heads are the seven hills where the city of Rome and its seven emperors. In Revelation 17, 12, the ten horns represent ten kings to Domitian.


The Christian communities oppressed and persecuted by the Roman Empire have in this chapter 13 the two forms of the beast, one in Ap 13.1 to 10, that emerges from the sea (the Empire with all its dominant apparatus) and Rev. 13, 11-18 that comes from the earth (is referring to it as False Prophet, their ideology).


We still have to detail what the Rev. 13.1 have the beast with ten horns, which are the ten kings and seven heads, representing the seven hills of Rome, and on each of the ten horns have the diadems -> allusion the kings, because they are using crowns and even on the ten heads blasphemous names of kings in each of them.


A key to understanding and interpreting Rev. 13 found in Dn 7.3 to 7 in which the beast has the wildlife characteristics: lion, bear and leopard, and another animal to look terrible and extremely strong, which also leave sea ​​and represented the empires that dominated the people of Israel to the time of Daniel (the Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians and Greeks). A domination that has an animalistic and wild character and so their representation is in the form of these wild animals. The Christian communities of the time of the 90 A.D. suffer domination and oppression of the Roman Empire in even larger scale than that of time until Daniel and so the representation of the beast with seven heads and ten horns.

The fall of Babylon. The vision of the great whore sitting on the beast

A BIT OF HISTORY...





Everyone knows the word "Pope" and assign it to the supreme head of the Roman Catholic Church. This term comes from Greek and means "Father." Already in Latin it is formed by the junction of the first syllable of the two Latin words: "Pater Patrum", which means "Father of Fathers." But the meaning that Catholics like best is "Petri Apostoli potestatem Accipiens," that is, "one who receives authority of the Apostle Peter." According to Catholic doctrine, the Pope is the successor of St. Peter in the governance of the universal Church and the Vicar of Christ on earth. It has authority over all the faithful and of all the ecclesiastical hierarchy. In addition to the spiritual authority has a territorial (interrupted from 1870 to 1929), which, from 1929, is limited to the Vatican City State. It is infallible when he speaks "ex cathedra" in matters of faith and morals. Some titles that the pope bears give a sample of this enormous folly, they are: Bishop of Rome, Primate of Italy, Patriarch of the West, Vicar of Jesus Christ, Servant of the Servants of God, Sumo-Pontiff of the Universal Church, Prince of the Successor of apostles, Sovereign State of Vatican City, Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Roman Province and the Holy Father.
As we have proven by history, the papacy has become the supreme ruler of Europe in the year 538 A.D. by decree of Emperor Justinian, and lost his political power 1260 years later in 1798 A.D., in times of the French Revolution. From this year the popes lost not only his authority but also the territories from which ruled. In bankruptcy Lateran, held in 1929, Benito Mussolini returned part of the territories to the Pope PIO XI. Since then we have seen how the power and influence of the papacy worldwide was growing and we can predict that as was the case during the first phase, will soon reach the control of the world.

In the years after the French Revolution occurred a gradual reavivamiento of the papal system. The Pope suffered another blow in 1870,





when they were taken from the Papal States. An important event happened in 1929 when the treaty Lateran, the temporary power it was restored to the pope. then received the Vatican City government, a section of Rome, which occupies an area of ​​about 44 hectares. And as I know you start counting up from that same year and not later? It's simple: Since the beginning of the papacy, the bishop of Rome was called "king of the land" and "Chef of Kings," [b] but lost that title in 1798 because the French have led him captive, expropriated their lands and usurped its sovereignty. None of the popes who were captives from that year (Pius VI, Pius VII, Gregory XVI, Pius IX, León XIII, Pius X and Benedict XV), returned to be called "kings". Only until 1929 the Pope came to be regarded as such, to exempt part of the lost pontifical territories:

Understanding images of the Apocalypse
































































































To understand Revelation, one must first understand Daniel. The prophecies of Daniel and Revelation have a connection.
Let us return then to Daniel 7. There we can see the same images used in Revelation 13: lion, bear, leopard and dragon. In Daniel 7, there is a description of a power that would arise in the early centuries of the Christian era. He would unite the church and the state. This religious power usurp the authority of God. Would claim to have power to change the law of God. Let's find out who this power, where he came and what he did. Pesquisemos Bible prophecies that foretell about this power that try to change God's law. Let us open the pages of history and read their own statements claiming to have the authority to change the Sabbath of the Lord.
As you continue to read, you will understand, perhaps for the first time, the central issues in this conflict over worship and you will see why the Sabbath is so important to God. You also understand how Sunday entered the Christian church. It is a wonderful journey when we compare Bible prophecy with history. One night, the prophet Daniel had a dream. That dream is described in Daniel 7: 2 and 3: "In my vision at night I saw the four winds of heaven stirring the great sea. Four great beasts, different from one another, rose from the sea. "What these animals represent in Bible prophecy? "The four great beasts are four kingdoms that will arise on earth" (verse 17). "He gave me this explanation: 'The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth" (verse 23). These four beasts represent four kingdoms that would dominate the world.

In Daniel 7, these four great empires ruling over the world are presented or described as wildlife. In Daniel 2, the same empires are depicted as different amount of metals and strength. In Daniel 2, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, dreamed of a great image. This statue was head of gold, chest and arms of silver, bronze hips, legs of iron and feet of iron and clay. We do not need to guess the meaning of this giant statue consisting of four metals. Babylon, the first of these four kingdoms, was mentioned by name directly by Daniel (verses 37-40). He also appoints the empire dethrone Babylon, Medo-Persia (Daniel 5: 28-30). And the nation that overthrew the Medo-Persia was Greece (Daniel 8:20, 21). The four image metals represent four world powers: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome.
The image had feet of iron mixed with clay, representing a divided Europe, and a stone without hands, broke free and smashed the statue. This stone symbolizes Jesus, the Eternal Rock, one day destroy the kingdoms of this world and establish an everlasting kingdom. carefully analyze the chapter 7 of Daniel, to see how the animal figures represent these ancient nations. As these prophetic beasts pass through the timeline, we can observe the unfolding of history.

The first animal was like a lion with eagle's wings. Says the report: "The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings. I watched and at one point, its wings were plucked, and it was lifted from the ground, firmed up on two feet like a man and received the heart of man "(Daniel 7: 4). Babylon was in located in what is now Iraq, about 95 kilometers south of Baghdad. When archaeologists were conducting excavations in Iraq, they found the figure of a winged lion clearly carved on the walls of Babylon, which were made of bricks.

The lion with eagle's wings was a common symbol and name of Babylon. In fact, the prophet Jeremiah (4: 7), when talking about Babylon, says the following: "A lion got out of its den, a destroyer of nations has set the path."

Jeremiah says the destroyer of nations, Babylon, would go to Jerusalem to destroy it. The lion with eagle's wings was a common symbol of Babylon in the ancient world. At the time of Daniel, the kingdom was a gigantic power that ruled the world. Then another nation would rise. Babylon does not rule the world forever. "Then I saw a second animal that looked like a bear. He was raised by one of its sides, and in the mouth, between his teeth, had three ribs. I was told, 'Get up and eat how much meat can!' "(Daniel 7: 5).

Notice now that the second empire is like a bear that stands on one side. The Medo-Persia overthrew Babylon. The bear Medo-Persia, rising by one of its sides, is the Persians who first overthrew Babylon to then dominate the fears. What the bear has mouth? Three ribs. When Medo-Persia conquered the world, she won first Babylon, then toward the north, where he won Lydia and then to the south, which dominated Egypt.

Bible prophecy is extremely accurate. That's fantastic!

A third empire arises: "Then I saw another beast, which looked like a leopard. Back it had four wings like those of a bird.

This animal had four heads, and was given authority to rule "(verse 6). The Greeks defeated the Medes and Persians. Alexander the Great and his Greek army conquered the world quickly. If you wanted to describe a rapid conquest, what animal would you choose? Who moved well agile: the leopard. But if you wanted to talk about an extremely rapid conquest, even fast, which could make your leopard? Place wings on it! God put wings on this leopard to describe agile conquests of Alexander the Great. Why four heads? Note again the accuracy of Bible prophecy: Alexander the Great died very young, at age 36.

The four leopard heads represent the four generals of Alexander who divided the empire: Cassander, Ptolemy, Seleucus and Antigonus. The four generals of Alexander ruled exactly as the Bible foretold. The Scriptures describe a fourth empire: "In my vision at night also saw a fourth beast, terrifying, scary and very powerful. I had great iron teeth with which tore and devoured its victims, and trampled whatever was left. It was different from all the previous animals, and it had ten horns "(verse 7).

It is clear that this fourth beast is the Roman Empire. This period brings us to the time of Christ. It was a Roman decree brought Joseph to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born. It was Pontius Pilate, a Roman, who judged Jesus. It was a Roman soldier who nailed Jesus on the cross. Rome ruled the world in the days of Christ. Christianity was born and raised in the Roman Empire. The Bible describes the collapse of that empire clearly through the symbol of the feet of the image and the fourth animal horns.

The image of Daniel 2 had feet of iron and clay, representing Europe divided. The fourth beast had ten horns. Rome was divided into ten major territories. The barbarian tribes swept through the empire, pillaged and took spoils, destroying villages and occupying cities. The Roman Empire was divided. The barbarian tribes the sectioned into small kingdoms. The Anglo-Saxons settled in England. The Franks, in the territory of France. The Germans, in the Germany region. And other northern tribes spread throughout the Empire, dividing the territory more or less the way we see today. These divisions represent the ten horns of the fourth beast.

Then God reveals how the apostasy infiltrate the church in time in which the Roman Empire was being devastated by barbarian tribes from the north.





The mysterious little horn

The prophecy in Daniel 7 clearly reveals the conflict over worship and shows precisely how the Sabbath was changed. While Daniel in vision saw these ten horns, something surprising came: "As I considered the horns, I saw another little horn, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted to make way for him. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth speaking arrogantly "(verse 8).

The Bible says this little horn arose and was different from the others. Who is this little horn that rises over the other ten? Let us try to find out some things the Bible says about this mysterious
little horn.
First, it appears among the top ten. If the ten horns are the divisions of Rome, the little horn necessarily arises in Western Europe. He does not come in Asia, Africa, North or South America. Its roots can be found on European soil.

Second, the Bible says that this little horn would arise after the ten horns. It does not appear in the time of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome. Arises after the fall of the Roman Empire. It is a power that arises from Rome in the first centuries.

Third, the Bible also says that this little horn has eyes like a man. What does this mean? You know how a prophet is called in the Bible? In Scripture, the prophets are called "seers" because they see with the eyes of God. man's eyes do not represent the divine wisdom, but human. It is a religious system based on the teachings of men that would arise from Rome.

Note that the Bible says in verse 24 that this horn is different from all others. This is the fourth track to understand the little horn. All powers before it - Babylon Average- Persia, Greece and Rome - constituted political powers. This is different. This is not a political power in the first instance; It is a religious power, a religio-political power. What this can do? He would try to change the very law of God. Look at what the Bible says in verse 25: ". He will speak against the Most High, oppress his saints and try to change times and laws" Can you imagine a better way to say "against the most High" than through an attempt to change the law of God, especially the Sabbath? This power would attempt to change the very law of God. The text is not talking about changing tax laws or policies. When a nation succeeds another, almost always human laws are changed. But this little horn would speak against the Most High, assuming the prerogatives of God and trying to change the divine laws.
Note that the Bible does not say that he could change those laws; I could only try to change them. No earthly power, however powerful claims to be, has the authority to change the law of God. But this power think possess such authority.

Daniel's prophecy predicts that a great religious power would rise to

from the ancient Roman Empire. This power would be small at first, but become extremely powerful. He would claim to have authority to modify even the law of God. What happened? In an attempt to please the pagans who were entering the church in large numbers and to make Christianity more acceptable to the empire, the Roman power sought to change the law of God. The change from Saturday occurred gradually over a long time period. It resulted in a series of social and religious factors.

Dr. John Eadie helps us understand the roots of this change in your Bible encyclopedia. He says: "Sunday was the name given by the heathens
first day of the week because it was the day on which they worshiped the sun. "1 The Sun worship was common in Egypt, Babylon, Persia and Rome.

In the 4th century, the Roman Emperor Constantine was also influenced by the worship of the sun. He wanted to unite his empire. How could achieve

such a feat? Constantine issued a decree to promote one days

Common rest to the fullest extent of the empire. His clear intention was to promote unity between pagans and Christians in his kingdom.

The emperor's decree dated 321 A.D. He commands: "Let the judges and the people of the cities, as well as merchants, shall rest on the venerable day of the sun." Constantine called Sunday "the venerable day of the Sun". He said that the shops should be closed.

In the time of Constantine, the church and the state have teamed up in an attempt to Christianize the pagan and unite the empire. The Roman government and the Roman church came together. The following statement is fantastic, and was published in March 1894 by The Catholic World: "The sun was the most important god among pagans. [...] There is indeed something real in the sun that makes it a proper representation of Jesus, the Sun of Righteousness. Therefore, the church in these countries seems to have said: 'Let's keep the old pagan name. He must remain consecrated, sanctified. 'And thus, the pagan Sunday, dedicated to Balder, became the Christian Sunday, sacred to Jesus. "
You could see how it happened? He watched Sunday entered the church? Constantine wanted to unite his empire and the leaders of the Roman Church wanted to convert the heathen. Sunday became the means to achieve both. So the Bible Sabbath was changed by the Roman church and the state.
There is another issue at stake here. The Roman church wanted to distance themselves from Judaism. There was an anti-Semitic feeling in the Roman Empire. This contributed to the change of the Sabbath to Sunday as a day of worship.
The Council (Synod) of Laodicea, held around 363 or 364 (dates vary), records the first ban in the custody of the Bible Sabbath. Bishops gathered in Laodicea and decreed: "Christians must not Judaize" (ie, should not keep the Sabbath) "and remain idle during the Sabbath."
Through this decree, the church council was saying, "We are forbidding Christians to rest on the Sabbath. They must work on that day. "Since Sunday should be honored in a special way. If Christians were found "judaizing" (keeping the Sabbath) would be "excluded from Christ."
Here we find a council of the church joined with the Roman government to try to change the authority of the Sabbath to Sunday. change
