Jesus is, then we should understand what the image of the beast is that men take on themselves and will worship.
If Jesus' image was that of God's Word which is the love of God because His Word is good for our souls prosperity, health and life. Only those who have received the Spirit of God are able to receive God's Word which cleanses us when we follow Christ from all unrighteousness as we sacrifice our fleshly desires that are contrary to God's ways.
Then the image of the Beast, Satan, Serpent, Devil must be the opposite or ANTI-Word of God because we know that all who take on the image of the beast shall suffer in the lake of eternal fire because they are dead to God for they do not receive His Word, nor do they obey His Spirit for they are spiritually dead and the memory of them is forgotten in God's mind.
The image of the beast is not a certain look for there are many devils who indwell mortal man as the quiet neighbor next door who never even raised his voice, but just murdered his whole family without even a sign of him being in the image of the beast who the Bible says was a murderer from the beginning. The devil was tormenting this man in his mind to tempt him and he received the lie.
Or the friend that we just found out has lied and cheated on their wife or husband that we never suspected because they are in the image of the Beast as a deceiver, liar, adulterer, fornicator and are doomed to hell, fire, and torment unless they turn from their wicked ways and repent unto God and ask for Him to send His Dear Son into their heart to BEGIN to cleanse them by a daily washing of the living water of the Word to renew their ways of thinking so that their sins will be taken away and they can enter into the Rest of God body, soul and spirit.
We must keep in mind that a Christian's fight is not against men.. it is against the spiritual wickedness that CAUSES man of every nation or family to be tempted to reject God's Word therefor an enemy to God.
So don't be deceived by the devil's schemes that have men killing one another thinking that a nation is the culprit against God.. it is the unclean spirits of an individual that tempts men to kill, steal and destroy that God is concerned with and the wrath of God is coming upon. Our war is spiritual, not carnal! Rid your family of the mark of the beast of darkness(evil) and teach them of how to be in the image of Christ by bringing the Light of the Word of God to their ears. For walking in the Light saves the soul.. but to walk in the darkness causes us to stumble and fall to our death For we can not SEE in the darkness unless someone leads us to Christ who takes us by the Hand and brings us to the Light where NOW WE SEE no longer blinded by the darkness. Jesus is the Hand of God that all things exist by, but God needs our feet to take the Word to the hurting, poor and dis-eased so they can reach out for the Hand of God and receive help to turn their life around.
