The Bible tell us about the 3 Beasts [Revelation 13] only after Satan will be cast out of Heaven down to Earth with his [fallen] angels [Revelation 12:7] ....

The 3 Beasts will receive their powers from Satan .

The casting of Satan out of Heaven down to the Earth with his fallen angels will be assuredly the most amazing and SURPRISING event in the whole history of humanity, who have been conditioned with the movies and more recently by the sientific community to the possibilty of the existence of non human intelligence ...[astronomy/ discovery of planets similar to Earth--The Vatican about the possibility of "ET's" also created by God]

Imagine for the sake of argument that an official contact with non human intelligence [Satan and his fallen angels]pretending to be of extra-terrestrial origin happen after Sept 23 2017[or at any time] how the whole World would be under shock... to the point of rewriting the history of humanity from that point on in the weeks and months following the event.

-The first Beast to receive the power of the dragon (Satan)-

The first Beast described to rise up out of the sea (sea =Nations/People] in the months following the event will be a new political system ...a new world order .
Revelation 13:1-2
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.

2 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.

The FIRST BEAST: the World reorganized into 10 Regions ....

1-The Beast coming out of the sea [sea -nations/people]with -seven heads- and ten crowns Revelation 13:1-2 -Political system-

2-One of the head [leader] wounded to death who came back to life [The AC/Beast that the world shall wonder who will impose the mark and worship]
Revelation 13:3-10

Again, only two beasts are mentioned and the first beast from the sea is the one that receives the deadly wound but the heads are said to be mountains not individuals

Rev 13:1 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 13:2 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.
Rev 13:3 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.


Rev 17:8 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 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.


A mountain is a kingdom and that one kingdom/government was wounded by a sword which implies a war took place and almost destroyed the kingdom/government.

So, there are two beasts, one from the sea one from the earth and only the one from the Earth is an individual and he never receives a head wound.

You forget the Beast WHO ASCEND OUT OF THE BOTTOMLESS PIT WHOSE THE WHOLE WORLD SHALL WONDER whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb ....THIS IS THE ONE WOUNDED TO DEATH AT THE HEAD WHO CAME BACK TO LIFE MEntioned in Revelation 13:3

Revelation 13:3-8
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 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?

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 power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

The beast that comes out of the pit is one of the two beasts. Still remains only two beasts :)
The Beast coming out of the Sea is a Kingdom made of 10 worldwide adminstrative regions [10 crowns/10 rulers] administrated by 7 heads (leaders).

.

Not according to Rev 17. A leader is not a mountain. The ten horns are ten kings, ten leaders. You have a bit confused :)

Yes, it's symbolism except there is no death. It's a wound that almost causes a death.

Rev 13:1 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 13:2 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.
Rev 13:3 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.


Rev 17:8 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 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.


A mountain is a kingdom and that one kingdom/government was wounded by a sword which implies a war took place and almost destroyed the kingdom/government.

So, there are two beasts, one from the sea one from the earth and only the one from the Earth is an individual and he never receives a head wound.
I think there is an easier way to look at this, The Dragon (Rev. 12) and the Beast from the Land (False Prophet) and the Beast from the Sea (Antichrist) of Rev. 13. This is right after the Trumpets are sounded, the Two witnesses have concluded their 3 1/2 year ministry and the abomination that causes desolation have all happened. Satan has been cast down and the Antichrist suffers a mortal wound, many have said that with Satan now being cast to the earth he posses the Antichrist, that is the first beast from the sea. After that he is far more ruthless and violent, literally demanding that you either join this Satanic conspiracy or your decapitated.

The Antichrist, as he has become known as, has a short career, 7 years total. His counter part the False Prophet makes a cameo appearance right at the middle of the Tribulation and both are cast bodily into the lake of fire. Somehow they are instrumental in convincing the children of perdition that they can fight God and win, a 'strong delusion' and at the return of Christ they are destroyed in an instant. God could have shut this bloody, infamous rampage down at any time but instead chose to reveal it and let it run it's course.

I think it's important to realize that God takes no pleasure in the downfall of the wicked, nor should we. What is celebrated in the courts of heaven is that evil is being revealed, the kingdoms of earth are becoming the kingdom of God and the wicked will be finally eradicated from the earth. I believe with every fiber of my being the God does not rejoice over Satan's downfall but rather grieves. God will also grieve over every child of perdition that has their place in the lake of fire but that won't stop him from repaying them for their rebellion, wickedness and murderous appetites.

Grace and peace,
Mark

The error is to think that The AC will be a ordinary human that will be wounded at the head who will be posses by Satan...

Revelation 17:8 tell us who is the Beast that the whole world shall wonder whose names were not written in the book of life...

Revelation 17:8
8 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.

-Angels can appear as ordinary hu[man].
-Angels are immortal...his deadly wound at the head was healed Revelation 13:3

I think that it is clear that Revelation 13:3-8 and Revelation 17:8 complete each other.

Which lead to the Angel of the Bottomless Pit:
Revelation 9:11
whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.


One thing is sure, the End Times will not play out exactly the way that it have been teached in the retail books or on the internet...Some unexpected surprises [signs and wonders]will caught many Christians off guard....that can even deceive the very elect before the Coming of Jesus Matthew 24:24!

I see only two, and believe me, I understand what you mean. But the Beast that comes out of the Abyss is a Demon. I think a Beast means one that Conquers, Enslaves or Rules Israel. I think the Demon Apollyon was given a job by Satan to destroy Israel, and he is the Commander of all the Seven Earthly Kingdoms (including the Coming Anti-Christ) that have set out to destroy or rule Israel. Israel was no more for 2000 years, they were as Dead Men's Bones, but when they came alive again, then and only then could the Last Beast come forth, thus during the Tribulation this Demonic Commander will be released to do that which is his duty, his assignment given by Satan, thus he is the 8th but is of the Seven. Satan is the god of this world, the STATUE has a Weak Base, Iron mixed with Clay because the Base is based on World Governance. Jesus is going to Smash this Statue when he Returns, he is our true Foundation, our Rock so to speak. This Demon is JUST A DEMON, he is not going to be one of the Seven Heads, he is just OVER the Seven Earthly Kingdoms or over the Seven Headed Beast.

There is a MAN (Anti-Christ) and a False Prophet who might be possessed by Apollyon. (I Don't know) Those are the Two Beasts. The First arises out of the Sea, meaning hes a Gentile, the Second arises out of the Land meaning he is a Jew. The Second seems to preform Miracles and gets the world to serve and worship the First BEAST as GOD.

The FIRST BEAST: the World reorganized into 10 Regions ....

The First Beast is described in Daniel chapter 7 as the Little Horn. He arises OUT OF the Fourth Beasts Head just like the 10 Horns do, and the Fourth Beast is Europe, not a 10 Nation Worldwide Confederation of Regions.

Do you really believe that a montain have a head that will be wounded to death?

What you describe is about the woman who sitted on the beast ,,,

God wants us to know the LAST BEAST is a MAN....Thus he reduces (20/10 to 10/5 to 1/2) the Kingdoms the Seven Headed Beast represents (Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome) to KINGS who have FALLEN. Then we understand, the LAST KING is not a Kingdom like the others but a TYRANT KING......5 have Fallen (Those named minus ROME = 5)......ONE IS (ROME).....And one is YET TO COME (Anti-Christ).

The Woman is the Harlot, she Rides the Seven Headed Beast because she is All False Religion from the beginning of time. Babylonian Astrology to Islam etc. all and even some Churches. The Seven Headed Beast is World Government, which as we all know is ALWAYS OF SATAN. Its never of God. Its the STATUE that Jesus is going to SMASH when he comes back and set up true Godly Governance.

The Kings judge the Harlot for God by killing off all Religions so the BEAST can be Worshiped as the ONLY GOD !! This is why the Kings Destroy the Harlot in Rev. 17:16. But God/Jesus Destroys Babylon/World Governance/Governments of which Babylon is the Head of Gold. Babylon is destroyed by Plagues/Burned/Meteors/Earthquakes/Wars etc. and then Jesus SMASHES them at Armageddon once and for all. The Kings in Rev. 18 Cry and Lament the Destruction of Babylon, but they HATED the Harlot and Killed her off/Burned and destroyed her. BIG DIFFERENCE. They are Two Separate Entities. False Religion and ungodly Governance have been co-mingled for 6000 years.

Some say.........But Rev. 17:18 says She is a CITY !! Well yes she is, and that CITY is represented as BABYLON, Thus she had Babylon the Great imprinted/tattooed on her forehead. NOTICE SOMETHING AWESOME I have just discovered, God is wonderful.

In Revelation chapter 21 the Bride who we know is Dressed in White not Scarlet like the Harlot, is also seen a CITY !!! And the very same Verbiage is used.

Revelation 21:9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife. 10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,

NOTICE HOW THESE TWO ARE ALMOST EXACT IN LANGUAGE.....

17 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: 2 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.

18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

Babylon is that which represents Evil......and the Harlot is THAT CITY......She of course is adorned in Scarlet and all Jeweled up, and adorned as a Harlot.

Jerusalem is that which represents Godliness.......The Bride is THAT CITY.......She of course is adorned in White and is comely and Faithful.

The Beast Coming Out Of The Bottomless Pit whose the whole World shall wonder -Angel Abaddon- [Revelation 17:8 ,,,Revelation 9:11],cannot die....that is why his wound at the head was miraculously healed Revelation 13:3

Revelation 13:3
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.


Your quoted verses refers to the Woman who ride the Beast ---
Well, it is only two beasts, with the first beast representing both a king and kingdom.

The world wonders at the beast, the person, because the world will witness the person killed and then come back to life. The person will be killed - by God - as it says in Ezekiel 28:1-10, for having gone into the temple, sitting, claiming to be God. The transgression of desolation of Daniel 8:13 by the little horn person.

There are no crowns on the heads in Revelation 13, with 42 months left in the seven years, unlike there are crowns on the heads in Revelation 12, with the full seven years left. What it means is that right before the beginning of the 7 years, king 7 of the 7 kings will have come to power, completing the prophecy of the 7 kings in Revelation 17.

King 7 will be the little horn person, who not long after becoming the little horn is the one who subsequently becomes the King of Israel, the rider on the white horse who is given a crown in Revelation 6, making him the Antichrist.

In the middle of the 7 years, he goes rogue, reveals himself to be the man of sin, ending his time as the King of Israel and thus the Antichrist, and commits the transgression of desolation. God has him killed, and then in Isaiah 14:18-20 brings the person back to life - the strong delusion that God sends so that those who are inclind to, to believe a lie in 2Thessalonians2:11. Which explains the one head wounded but come back to life - in both Revelation 13 and 17:8b.

So it is the little horn person who becomes the king (7th) of the fourth empire, the end times version, who then becomes the King of Israel, the Antichrist; who then becomes the man of sin; who is killed and brought back to life as the beast.

The person is labeled the beast because he will be possessed by the unclean spirit of a former person, now in the bottomless pit who will be allowed to come out of the pit. That former person called the beast in Revelation 17:8a, the angel speaking to John said was and is not. Which that language typifies someone who was alive, but no longer is alive. Which that person was already in the bottomless pit at the time of John. It paramount to recognize that there are two parts to Revelation 17:8 - the 17:8a part about the ancient person, then the 17:8b part about the end times person, the little horn.

I think what Riberra has postulated here is highly plausible. And Doug, you are probably correct also but in a different way. If anybody is watching, there is a subtle effort afoot regarding extraterrestrial beings, Nephilim, Reptilians , portals,etc.The great delusion will be what Riberra suggests, whether anyone want to believe it or not imho. Also, imho, those who are preparring themselves will know it for the lie that it is and will not be deceived, though they will be beheaded. As far as someone being possessed by Apollo, I think you would be wise to look for a person who can unite all of the Muslim factions. My 2 pennies.

I see only two, and believe me, I understand what you mean.
It would have been more simple if i have said the 3 Beasts of Revelation.
Let see ---

1 -The Beast rising up out of the sea Revelation 13:1-2

2 -The Beast coming out of the Bottomless Pit Revelation 17:8

3 -The Beast coming out of the Earth [The False Prophet]Revelation 13:11-18



But the Beast that comes out of the Abyss is a Demon.
Revelation 9:11 say clearly that it is AN ANGEL.... (fallen angel]

I think a Beast means one that Conquers, Enslaves or Rules Israel. I think the Demon Apollyon was given a job by Satan to destroy Israel, and he is the Commander of all the Seven Earthly Kingdoms (including the Coming Anti-Christ)
The LAST BEAST will be a KINGDOM who encompass the WHOLE WORLD under its TOTAL domination.This is the FOURTH KINGDOM mentioned by Daniel from which the LITTLE HORN will emerge.

This is the BEAST rising out of the SEA [People] of Revelation 13:1-2
The fourth Kingdom mentioned by Daniel that will encompass the WHOLE WORLD...

The second beast is the false prophet:

The second beast is also called the false prophet in Revelation. We know this because the second beast is the one who performs miracles before the first beast and later Rev. restates this fact but identifies the second beast as the false prophet who is the same one that had performed miracles before the first beast. All the clues are there, we just have to read and take note of them.




Revelation 13:14 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.



Here we read of the second beast, who performs miracles in the sight of the first beast and performing those miracles in order to deceive the people!


1: Second beast performs miracles before the first beast
2: performs these miracles to deceive the people.



Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received
the mark of the beast
, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.



Here we see that the false prophet performed miracles before the beast in order to deceive people and cause them to worship that same beast.



1: False prophet performs miracles before the first beast
performs these miracles to deceive the people.





So to sum up what we have found:



1: Second beast, also called the false prophet, performs miracles before the first beast.


2: performs these miracles to deceive the people.


Therefore, the second beast is a person who is called the false prophet, the one responsible for performing miracles designed to deceive people and cause them to worship the first beast.

It would have been more simple if i have said the 3 Beasts of Revelation.
Let see ---

1 -The Beast rising up out of the sea Revelation 13:1-2

2 -The Beast coming out of the Bottomless Pit Revelation 17:8

3 -The Beast coming out of the Earth [The False Prophet]Revelation 13:11-18
Your Problem here is you are failing to recognize there is no 8th Head of the Seven Headed Beast, because the 8th is only a Demon Spirit. I am concentrating on Earthly Kingdoms and Kings not HIGHER POWERS and what goes on in the Spirit world. Many Demons are assigned by Satan of things, this is nothing new. John/Jesus just wanted us to know that there is a Demon assigned to accomplish this mission and that he has been over all Seven of the Beast Heads. We could say 9 because Satan is over Apollyon. I don't place much stick in the 8th King, we KNOW Demons come against us, Paul tells us we wrestle the these POWERS of Darkness all the time. Its a FACT, but it has nothing to do with what we will see.....even though we know its there.


What do you think a Demon is? A Fallen Angel.

The LAST BEAST will be a KINGDOM who encompass the WHOLE WORLD under its TOTAL domination.This is the FOURTH KINGDOM mentioned by Daniel from which the LITTLE HORN will emerge.

It might dominate the whole world and it MIGHT NOT, the Hebrew and Greek words used often said the WHOLE WORLD when they were speaking about the Known World, or all the Land being spoken of. Alexander the HE-GOAT and Nebuchadnezzar were said to have CONQUERED the Whole World and the Gospel was said to have already been PREACHED unto All the Whole World, so I would not take that as being an ABSOLUTE TRUTH.

And the LAST BEAST is a Man, not a Kingdom, read Daniel 11, the Beast is THROWN INTO THE BURNING FLAME............Just like the Anti-Christ is in Rev. 19:20.

This is the BEAST rising out of the SEA [People] of Revelation 13:1-2
The fourth Kingdom mentioned by Daniel that will encompass the WHOLE WORLD...

Again, this word WHOLE WORLD can't mean the WHOLE WORLD because if it did then Nebuchadnezzar would have had to have Conquered the WHOLE WORLD.

It could be the Whole World, but even then it could still be ONE MAN from the E.U. doing the Conquering. He arises out of Europe as do the 10 KINGS.

The second beast is the false prophet:

The second beast is also called the false prophet in Revelation. We know this because the second beast is the one who performs miracles before the first beast and later Rev. restates this fact but identifies the second beast as the false prophet who is the same one that had performed miracles before the first beast. All the clues are there, we just have to read and take note of them.




Revelation 13:14 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.

That is right the Second Beast is the False Prophet...which agree perfectly with what i said !

Here the punch:
-The FIRST Beast is the one that will be wounded at the head and came back to life.
Revelation 13:13
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12 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.

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 14 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
