THE BEAST OUT OF THE LAND
THE FALSE PROPHET
The False Prophet is pictured as a beast coming out of the land. Like his counterpart, the beast who comes out of the sea, the false prophet also has a dual role. He represents a universal GEORELIGIOUS system and is it’s head. He is able to perform mighty feats in the presence of the beast – even call fire down from heaven! However, he is satanically inspired and extremely dangerous! It is he who has the idea of making a statue of the beast and it is he who commands all to worship the image of the beast! All those refusing to do so will be beheaded! The Revelation reveals the origin and abode of this satanic creature.
The False Prophet is pictured as a beast coming out of the land. We believe the land referred to here is Italy – more specifically the Vatican. Like his counterpart, the beast who comes out of the sea, the false prophet also has a dual role. He represents a universal GEORELIGIOUS system and is it’s head. In a sense, the beast out of the land is the more dangerous of the two – because his specialty is subterfuge! This beast has two horns and looks like a lamb – but, he speaks like the dragon (Satan). The horn is an Old Testament symbol for kingship (leader) therefore, the twin horns of this beast depict a dual leadership function. In addition, he has the attributes of a lamb and yet speaks like the dragon … Let us examine this enigma a little more closely:
 |
Has two horns: Dual leadership role. |
||
|
Looks like a lamb: Feigns to be, or, represent Jesus Christ! |
|
Speaks like the dragon: By definition as per the Revelation is satanically inspired!! |
In our day, there is but one person who concisely fits this description – that is the so-called Vicar of Christ – the pope of the day. Let us broadly examine the office of the Pope.
He executes a dual role:
|
A: He is the head of the Vatican State (political). |
|
B: The spiritual leader of one billion Roman Catholics globally. Church dogma proclaims him to be the Vicar of Christ, one representing Jesus Christ – the true Lamb of God. According to the Catholic Church, when the pope speaks Ex Cathedra he is infallible – what blasphemy! By direct contrast the Bible declares, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Rom 3:23). This includes the pope! Through his actions – dogma (idolatry) and objectives – serves Satan his master! |
In addition, in his role as the false prophet (beast out of the land) he orders the making of an animated statue of the beast (dictator) out of the sea. This is the statue that the people of this geographical area will be required to (physically) come and worship. The rest of the world will possibly worship via satellite link up. It is he who initiates the idea and subsequent implementation of the infamous ‘mark of the beast’ – 666! Owing to the general confusion surrounding the mark – a detailed explanation can be found under the heading ‘mark of the beast’. Furthermore, when in the presence of the first beast, the false prophet is able to perform miraculous signs and wonders – through these signs and wonders he will deceive many. These two satanically inspired characters work hand-in-glove for their mutual diabolical benefit.
