Revelation 13:1-13:9 Feeding the Beast, If any man have an ear, let him hear. Rev 13:1-9 Is the world, feeding the beast, making him stronger? What or who is the beast, is he here or is he to come? Are we giving the right answers to the wrong questions? Lets look at revelations 13: 1-9, And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea. The book of revelations refer to the beast as an enemy of God and anything that is righteous. The Jews today are worried that their government is feeding the beast, by giving concessions to Syria, returning land that they took from their enemy's by war. Egypt, Syria, ect, are all taking bites out of Israel. But a little closer home, are we feeding the beast. Lust, greed, false doctrine, false preaching, teaching, deceiving one another, while the beast gets stronger from our inconsistencies? Chewing up our churches and christians from within, getting stronger from the flesh and blood of the elect of God. You say, it cant happen here, not in America, we chose our own destiny. Yes, its happening here. Look around at the schools, no prayer, one woman, had the power to remove prayer from our schools, where was the church while this was going on, the ten commandments are not allowed to be posted in our court houses, homosexuals are allowed to meet in our schools but if you protest, then you are the evil one, not allowing free speech. Christians are the 2nd most hated people in the world, the Jews are the 1st. Look at Revelations 13:9-10, this is very important, look at what Jesus said in Verse 9, If any man have an ear, let him hear. Why was this put here? Jesus was trying to tell us to pay attention. Verse 10, He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. We have to help one another, guide one another, support one another, we need each other, we are a family, not just in the church building, but outside. remember the Lords prayer, yea thou I walk thru the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.? Do you actually know what the valley of the shadow of death is, its when you walk out of you house, when you leave the church building, when you take your dog for a walk, its the world outside your own front door. Thats where the valley is and thats the valley where the beast is waiting, and hungry. Rape, murder, prostitution, pornography, homo-sexuality, alcoholism, drug addiction, lies, its all there in the valley and the beast is waiting for you and your children and friends. The world knows the beast and its feeding him, making him stronger, the Jews are trying to fight him but to no avail. I'm not a theologian, many might say, that the beast in Revelations has to rise out of the sea, their right, the sea in these verses is a metiphore, look at it this way, the beast is in hiding, until he gains strength, right now he's growing up and feeding on any thing that he can get his hands on. Some are waiting on the anti-christ to arrive, but church, he's already here, the Bible tells us so, its the spirit of the anti-christ and the spirit of the beast that we should have already started to fight. You say, thats for the ones that are not raptured, but church, think about the ones that are not saved, maby your own children, your neighbors and friends. we don't know when Christ is coming after us, think about the others. Take a quick look at verses 7 and 8 and think on these things. Hear what the spirit sayeth unto the Church, hear, hear and understand, time is short, we cant afford the luxury of making mistakes with our or someone's else's soul. The beast is hungry. remember at the beginning I asked a few questions, are we, giving the right answers to the wrong questions, are we confusing people with doctrine thats not scripture? Think, are we feeding the Beast? ars. |
