THE OLD WORLD BIBLE BEAST IS TODAY’S FINAL MIDDLE EAST BEAST!
TODAY’S BEAST IS A HISTORICAL UNION OF SEVEN BEAST KINGDOMS THAT ALL AFFECTED GOD’S CHOSEN PEOPLE, THE NATION OF ISRAEL!
Before 1951 all I knew about Islam was what I had been taught in history classes. I knew there had been a vast historical Islamic Caliphate begun by Muhammad, and the history of the chain of European Crusades against it. I also knew about a death blow struck against it by the great Mongolian Empire. I had been taught about the Islamic Caliphates expansion into southeastern and southwestern Europe, and how the last small Turkish Caliphate became “the sick man of Europe.” But I knew nothing about the Islamic faith, had never touched the Koran, or met a Muslim in my 19 years on the earth.
All that began to change in 1951 when I began to meet Muslims in USAF-IHL’s. I was introduced to their cultures and beliefs through personal contact with those who came from Islamic to study in Military Schools. In 1952 I was assigned duty in the Holy Land in Islamic countries.
I was raised in an environment where Christian teachers taught me a great deal from the Bible. I have been amazed over the years as I have studied the Koran how it matches perfectly what the Bible describes as the very spirit and essence of Antichrist. After I retired from the USAF-NSA in 1971, I then graduated from Little Rock Missionary Baptist Seminary and Arkansas Tech University in the seventies.
I never taught what you are about to read outside Dardanelle MBC until 2008.
I am now 76 years and believe I will soon stand before Christ to be judged for the things I did in my life. I do not want to be found guilty for something I was supposed to teach, but failed to do so.
Based on the many things I have learned from the Muslim faith and the Koran over the last 56 years, none of which I believe, I believe both the Antichrist and False Prophet will be of the Islamic faith. Before this series is over, Lord willing, you will see precisely why I believe what
I have just stated. So please, no questions or arguments until the series is finished.
REVELATION 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.
The Sea is the Mediterranean, on which the great Egyptian, Assyrian, Babyl
onian, Persian, Grecian, and Roman ships of the past have sailed.
The beast is a combination of the evil kingdoms of man associated with this sea that have affected the people of Israel since God began to raise them as his people in Egypt.
The seven heads represent the seven evil kingdoms of man under which Israel has been, is, or will be affected since God delivered her from an Egyptian bondage. The seven kingdoms in chronological order are: the Egyptian, Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian, Grecian, Roman, and Islamic Kingdoms.
The ten horns are ten Islamic kings that will join with the Antichrist in the final Islamic Kingdom to attack Israel and drive her into the Negev for some three and one-half years. Their ten crowns represent their power which will be surrendered to the Antichrist.
There are seven Koine Greek letters in the New Testament name for the anointed one, the Messiah, the CHRIST (CH)(R)(I)(S)(T)(O)(S), one letter for each head, and antichrist claims to be God, which is the ultimate blasphemy.
REVELATION 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.
First, John works backward to the kingdom from which Daniel was writing while in captivity, the Kingdom of Babylonia. John is writing during the time of the sixth head, the Roman Kingdom, the strange fourth beast of Daniel 7 with iron teeth and brass feet, so he does not mention it, but goes back to the Grecian Kingdom (leopard) crushed by the brass feet of the Iron Roman Kingdom Beast, then proceeds back to the Persian Kingdom (bear) the Grecian Kingdom overran, and finally gets back to the time of Daniel’s writing in the Babylonian Kingdom (lion).
The dragon (Satan) also has seven heads, ten horns, and ten crowns, which represent the same things as the beast of Revelation 13:1.
Revelation 12:3 – And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
The Devil’s kingdom has been located in the great Tigris-Euphrates River Valley since Adam’s fall in the Garden of Eden.
Genesis 10:6-11 – And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. [7] And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
[8] And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
[9] He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord. [10] And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. [11] Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,
Genesis 11:1-4,8 – And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. [2] And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. [3] And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had
they for morter.
[4] And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. [8] So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
EVIL KINGDOMS OF HISTORY HAVE SURROUNDED HIS SEAT.
BEAST’S ATTACK WILL COME FROM SATAN’S SEAT IN THE MIDST OF HIS DEMON KINGDOM OF FALLEN ANGELS LED BY KINGS AND PRINCES
Daniel 10:12,13 – Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
[13] But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
[20] Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.
Revelation 13:1,2 – 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.
Revelation 16:10-16 – 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.
Daniel 2:32-34,42-45 – This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, [33] His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. [34] Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces [42] And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
[43]And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
[44] And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. [45] Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
