Today, we sadly use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s.
Middle English decembre
Old French decembre
Latin december "tenth
month"
Latin decem "ten" + -ber (adj. suffix)
December had 30 days, until Numa when it had 29 days, until Julius when it became 31 days long.
Yehovah has His own calendar which is deleted from the world
We are now in the 10th month called Teveth, day 9 - Esther 2:16 - in English, scripture calls it Tebeth
Today’s topic:
The Beast
The Antichrist
– and many antichrists
1 John.2 [18] Little children, it is the
last time: and as you have heard that antichrist shall
come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
[19] They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if
they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went
out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
[20] But you have an unction from
the Holy One, and you know all things.
[21] I have not written unto you because you know not the truth, but
because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
[22] Who is a liar but he that
denies that Yeshua is the Messiah?
He
is antichrist, that denies the
Father and the Son.
[23] Whosoever
denies the Son, the same had not the Father: (but) he that acknowledges the
Son hath the Father also.
[24] Let that therefore abide in you, which you have heard
from the beginning. If that which you have heard from the beginning shall
remain in you, you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
[25]
And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
1John.4 [1] Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try
the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out
into the world.
[2] Hereby know you the Spirit of God: Every spirit that
confesses that Yeshua Messiah is come in the flesh is
of God:
[3] And every spirit that confesses not that Yeshua the Messiah is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof you have
heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
2 John.1 [7] For many deceivers
are entered into the world, who confess not that Yeshua
the Messiah is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
Some beasts and their
activities:
Rev.11 [1] And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel
stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them
that worship therein.
[2] But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it
not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread
under foot forty and two months.
[3] And I will give
power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred
and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
[4] These are the two olive
trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
[5] And if any man will hurt them, fire proceeds out of
their mouth, and devours their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must
in this manner be killed.
[6] These have power to shut
heaven that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over
waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often
as they will.
[7] And when they shall have finished their testimony, the
beast that ascends out of
the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and
kill them.
[8] And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the
great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord
was crucified.
[9] And they of the people and kindreds
and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and
shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
[10] And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over
them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two
prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
[11] And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them,
and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
[12] And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up
hither. And they ascended up to heaven
in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
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.
[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.
[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.
[9] If any man have an ear, let him hear.
[10] He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity: he that kills
with the sword must be killed with the sword.
Here is the patience and the
faith of the saints.
[11] And I beheld another beast coming up out of the
earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke
as a dragon.
[12] And he exercises all the power of
the first beast before him, and causes 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 makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
[14] And deceives 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.
[15] And he had power to
give life unto the image of the beast, that
the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast
should be killed.
[16] And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
[17] And that no man might buy or sell,
save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
The
Mark, Name, Number of his name
[18] Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count
the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six
hundred threescore and six.
Rev.14 [9]
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the
beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his
hand,
[10] The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God,
which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he
shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels,
and in the presence of the Lamb:
[11] And the smoke of their torment ascended up forever and ever:
and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the
beast and his image, and
whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
Rev.15 [1] And I saw another sign in heaven,
great and marvelous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is
filled up the wrath of God.
[2] And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire:
and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his
image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the
harps of God.
[3] And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and
the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are
thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, you King of saints.
[4] Who shall not fear you, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for you only art holy: for all nations shall come and
worship before you; for thy judgments are made manifest.
Rev.16 [1] And I heard a great voice out
of the temple saying to the seven angels,
Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
[2] And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men
which had the mark of the beast,
and upon them which worshipped his image.
[10] And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the
beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed
their tongues for pain,
[11] And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and
their sores, and repented not of their deeds.
[12] And the sixth
angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water
thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
[13] And I saw three unclean spirits like
frogs come
out of the mouth
of the dragon, and
out of the mouth
of the beast, and
out of the mouth
of the false prophet.
[14] For they are the spirits of devils,
working miracles,
which
go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world,
to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
[15] Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his
garments, lest he walks naked, and they see his shame.
[16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew
tongue Armageddon.
[17] And the seventh angel
poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the
temple of heaven, from the throne,
saying, It
is done.
Rev.17 [1] And there came one of the seven
angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come
hither; I will show unto you the judgment of the great whore that sits 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.
[3] So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a
woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full
of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
[4] And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color,
and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her
hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
[5] And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE
GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
[6] And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and
with the blood of the martyrs of Yeshua: and when I
saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
[7] And the angel said unto me, wherefore didst you marvel?
I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of, which hath the seven heads
and ten horns. the beast that
carries her.
[8] The beast that you
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.
[9] And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads
are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.
[10] And there are
seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come;
and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
[11] And the beast
that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goes
into perdition.
[12] And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, which have received
no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
[13] These have one
mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
[14] These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall
overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are
with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
[15] And he said unto me, The
waters which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and
nations, and tongues.
[16] And the ten horns which you saw upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate
and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
[17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree,
and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be
fulfilled.
[18] And the woman which you saw is that great city, which reigns over
the kings of the earth.
Rev.19 [19]
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies,
gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against
his army.
[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.
Rev.6 and 20 go together
Rev.6 [9]
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls
of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the
testimony which they held:
[10] And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O
Lord, holy and true, dost you not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell
on the earth? [11] And white robes were given unto every one of them;
and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a
little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren,
that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Rev.20 [4]
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them:
and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the
witness of Yeshua, and for the word of God, and which
had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had
received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived
and reigned with Messiah a thousand years.
[10] And the
devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone,
where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day
and night forever and ever.
The
abomination of desolation
Dan.9
[27] And he shall
confirm the covenant with many for one week (7 years): and in the midst
of the week (7 years) he shall cause the sacrifice and
the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall
make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined
shall be poured upon the desolate.
Dan.11 [31] And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the
sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall
place the abomination that makes desolate.
Dan.12 [11] And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be
taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate set
up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Dan.11 [36] And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify
himself above every god, and shall
speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the
indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
2 Thes.2 [4] Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is
called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is
God.
Let’s go over the Mark…
Rev.13 [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the
mark, or the name of the beast, or
the number of his name.
Rev.14 [11] And the smoke of their torment ascends up forever and ever:
and they have no rest day nor night, who worship
the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his name.
Rev.16 [2] And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and
there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which
worshipped his image.
Rev.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.
Rev.13 [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.
Some old net history
in 167 BC
when a Greek ruler by the name of Antiochus IV desecrated the temple in Jerusalem. Antiochus
called himself “Epiphanies” (“illustrious one” or “god manifest”). He set up an altar to Zeus over the altar of burnt offering, and he
sacrificed a pig on the altar. Antiochus went even further in his atrocities, slaughtering a great number of the Jews
and selling others into slavery. And he issued decrees forbidding circumcision
and requiring Jews to sacrifice to pagan
gods and eat pig meat.
What Antiochus did
certainly qualifies as an abomination, but
it was not a fulfillment of Daniel’s prophecy.
Fact check:
In 167 BC - Antiochus Epiphanies did not enter a covenant with
Israel for seven years.
Was
not a world ruler
In Matthew 24 Yeshua was speaking some 200 years after Antiochus.
Antiochus did not take over
the whole world nor was seen or worshipped by
the whole world
No worshipping his image that comes alive
No mark, name or number was given
No false prophet arose
No 2 witnesses of God
No one world monetary
system over buying and selling
No 3rd Temple
Fact check 2:
Same with Titus the Roman leader 70 AD
Was not a world ruler
Titus
did not enter
a covenant with Israel for seven years
Titus did not take over the
whole world nor was seen or worshipped by
the whole world
No mark in right hand nor name or number was given
No false prophet arose
No worshipping his image that comes alive
No 2 witnesses of God
No 3rd Temple
No one world monetary
system over buying and selling
No worshipping his image that comes alive
In closing for today,
Many unlearned and
unscriptural people say Antiochus Epiphanies or Titus was the
anti-Christ. – fazlse…
They are wrong. These two
are simply disqualified by the bible facts presented above.
Make sure you know your
bible, KJV version.
