I got a question for my Christian Brothers and Sisters i wanna see what you guys got to say Who do you guys believe the Beast is? and Who you guys believe the Mark is? Any opinions or interpretations are accepted God bless
Do you think that when the Bible speaks of "the whole world" it literally means the entire globe? Or could it be a reference to simply the whole land of Israel?
The beast is a description name for the arch villain of the end times, after he goes through a series of other functional roles. The person has not been identified yet.I got a question for my Christian Brothers and Sisters i wanna see what you guys got to say Who do you guys believe the Beast is? and Who you guys believe the Mark is?

Actually, your very quote of Revelation 13:3 is a great example. "...and all the world (gē) wondered after the beast". Also your example of Acts 1:8 "... in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth (gē)"I don't find any place in the Bible where "whole world" means "just Israel".
Acts 1:8 8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth
What is this STUR you speak of? Can you give a little more information?It comes up out of the pit, and is cast into the lake of fire... so it's not a human being.
Fallen angels are in the pit... only non-humans are judged prior to the white throne.
STUR is the god(fallen angel) of Babylon whose name adds up to 666.
(The Book of Daniel says that only Michael is fighting alongside God... and so does Rev.12... so the fallen angels aren't fighting against Lucifer, they're fighting for him.
It seems like Saturn must have been the name of the fallen angel of Babylon.)
Yes, I've looked into this as well but wasn't able to find any evidence of such a chit being in existence prior to the 3rd century. That doesn't mean it wasn't also common in the 1st century, but if you have any evidence or ideas regarding this I'd love to hear it.The chit that showed that you'd made your sacrifice to Caesar.
Your interpretation could be supported by scripture (though you've clearly used creative licence in some of your details), but do you agree that other interpretations can just as easily be supported by scripture?The beast is a description name for the arch villain of the end times, after he goes through a series of other functional roles. The person has not been identified yet.
As the beast, he will be the prime figure over the rule of the world for 42 months before Jesus returns, and his particular kingdom will be the EU, with it's ten leaders.
The mark of the beast, it is actually more specific as the mark of his name Revelation 14:11.
To buy/sell, the three id's a person must display, at least one of them, are: his name, the number of
his name 666, the mark of his name.
Currently, no one for certain knows specifically how the 666 and the mark apply to the person because he has not been identified yet.
To positively identify who the person is, the EU will have to be restructured with ten leaders, and with one overall leader, the little horn person.
The little horn person following Gog/Magog will be the prince who shall come;
Then after arriving in the middle east, the Jews will perceive that he is the messiah, and the person anointed the King of Israel, coming in his own name, that is the Antichrist;
Then after 3 years, thereabouts, he commits the transgression of desolation act, claiming to have achieved God-hood, revealing himself as the man of sin and not the messiah after all. It ends his time as the King of Israel, and thus his functional role as the Antichrist;
God has the person killed for his act, and then in disdain for the person brings him back to life to be part of the closure of the end of this age, which Satan and his kingdom will destroyed as well as a packaged plan.
Come back to life, the person will be possessed by the spirit of the original serpent (beast) of the garden of eden ordeal. Thus the person is referred to as the beast, and as well as because of the beast-like nature of the person.
What other evidence, other than his name and his ruthlessness, do you have that make you believe it is Nero?

Would that not be STRN? STN, Satan. Satan is a fallen STRN. Satan is still the beast.In the Greek, "name" can also be translated as "authority." In this case, as with the case for Christians who "have not denied My name"... authority is probably what is meant.
So then... where did the first beast get his authority? Because they will worship this creature, too. In Eden, they worshipped the snake just by believing it instead of God.
Actually, your very quote of Revelation 13:3 is a great example. "...and all the world (gē) wondered after the beast". Also your example of Acts 1:8 "... in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth (gē)"
In both cases the Greek word translated as "world" or "earth" is gē and it means "the earth, soil, land, region, country, inhabitants of a region." And when it says "the earth" it does not mean the whole earth, or the author would've used the word kosmos, such as in Matthew 5:14 "You are the light of the world (kosmos)" or in Revelation 11:15 "The kingdom of the world (kosmos) has become..."
In other words, Revelation 13:3 is not referring to the entire world. It's referring to a local event, something that affects the people of the land. Knowing this alone completely changes the meaning of the passage, wouldn't you agree?
Would that not be STRN? STN, Satan. Satan is a fallen STRN. Satan is still the beast.
I actually did not say what the mark of the beast's name was. Because I don't know.Your interpretation could be supported by scripture (though you've clearly used creative licence in some of your details), but do you agree that other interpretations can just as easily be supported by scripture?
No. God created the earth for a purpose. Greek mythology is just Satan's version of history.Yeah... I know what you're thinking... pantheism, right? Pantheism isn't really out there, when you realize that the Titans must have been called gods by the Greeks.
No. God created the earth for a purpose. Greek mythology is just Satan's version of history.
It means God created the earth for a purpose. What is that purpose? The earth is not the mother of Adam. That is how all pagan creation stories want humans to believe. That is how it was taught contrary to Noah's version. Contrast Noah with Zoroaster, a much older history than Greek mythology, and they still are slightly off on the truth. Earth is just a finite layer of creation which is only a cube. There is nothing special about this layer of dirt and rock, any more than the gases in the air above the earth and all the clouds that come and go. This layer of reality we call earth only serves as the purpose of a place humans live. Humans who are supposed to be the image of God. Lights surrounding a physical body. Instead Adam disobeyed God, and died. Now we are in dead corruptible bodies, without a light literally."God created the earth for a purpose."... what does that even mean?
In Greek, Gaea is Mother Earth. According to Gen.1... Earth was the mother of Adam. Don't seem to me like the Pelasgians are wrong... but then I don't hate Pelasgians.
