Thanks. I have found the sea beast is the same as the little horn of Daniel 7 and 8 while the land or earth beast is one that has / is promoting him and their false system throughout the world.

Thanks! What I have found so far going through these 13 chapters is that Revelation entirely symbolic. God is able to give us so much more information this way... quite amazing!!!!! Therefore, I see verses 16 and 17 as symbolic and not literal... the only thing that is literal is that he is a...

Okay and thanks… we certainly have a way to go … don’t want to to change the subject but is it your understanding that the sea beast is a man but the earth beast is not? Or am not reading things incorrectly?

Okay, I am now at verse 13:17-18 which introduces us to the number 666. I don’t expect this is going to be an easy interpretation… as many have been, but I don’t think I have seen or read any that made any sense … but I have never studied this before … So, anyone truly interpret these two verses?

So, all of the information that I provided you regarding 9:26-27 you made no comment…. Which is what you always have done. But you quickly move on to 11:31 without skipping a beat… I have an answer that ties in with 11:31 and all if chapter 11. None of chapter 11 discusses AE or any other...

Nope.

Not even close...

As I said many times, the verses in 9:24-27 speak of the Messiah... the Messiah would arrive on the first day of the last week of the prophecy - meaning there was only 7 years left of the 490 years. The Messiah was cut off in the "midst" of the week or exactly 3.5 years into the last 7 years...

See Dougg, you will not open yourself for anything other that what you have been telling yourself for those 50 years.God and study the two different Hebrew words for vision in Daniel... And there is absolutely no 7 year tribualtion ... enough!

The 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy is NOT the long vision! You must have read that somewhere and accepted it. This specific prophecy was answered to Daniel directly by God, not Gabriel - it was that important and personal, AND, even Gabriel did not have the answer to it. Because it belongs...

You could not be more correct!!! This is an amazing finding!!! And I can say (my opinion) that I have not seen anyone come to that understanding and attempt to put these two beasts together. And, unless that is done, there is no way the earth beast can be properly identified. The sea beast is...

well, I certainly was not surprised that you would be the first to respond to this. So, would you please take the verses from 11 to 17 and provide how your interpretation answers each one of them.....

Okay, I would like to hear your thoughts on who is the earth beast in Revelation 13. There appears to be a number of characteristics or identifies in verses 11-16 that should help us identiy him... not going to be easy. Thanks in advance for your contributions.

Well, you certainly have a strong knowledge of the Scriptures. Thanks for these references and they surely add to the interpretations.

That is very nice and certainly is on point here! But, if I may, even then God was allowing or having the writer use symbols for those who took up arms - He did not have to since these were clearly men. But God will use symbols throughout the Scriptures because they add so much more to the...

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Thanks for your thoughts... it certainly isn't worse than what I am coming up with.... although at this time, I am leaning to the Word of God and the Holy Spirit as thes two witnesses may cover or meet all 19 of the requirements - symbolically. But 11 is challenging.

Somebody seems to have spent some serious time in the Scriptures....

I certainly enjoy your first two paragraphs but i am not convinced about the two witnesses being the Jews and the Christians - but I will certainly look into it and thanks. By the way, at this time... and it is sooooo preliminary, my thoughts on the two witnesses are 1) the Word of God and of...

Well, what do we know about these witnesses? They must meet the conditions described in these verses - and not one or two of them but all of them. We have: 1) they must be witnesses, 2) they must be lampstands, 3) they must be olive trees, 4) they must preach / prophecize for 1260 days, 5)...
