First, I will like to establish some facts:
Which is the beast of Revelation 9, the fifth trump.Rev 17:8 The beast that thou 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.
Fact #1 This is the beast that was released from the bottomless pit.Rev 9:1-3,11 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.Rev 9:11 And they had a king over them, [which is] the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue [is] Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath [his] name Apollyon.
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. Rev 17:3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns Rev 17:9 And here [is] the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains ,on which the woman sitteth. Rev 17:10 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. Rev 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. quote] This is the key to the actual timetable of the beast. The year of 68/69ad is the year of the four emperors of Rome, the year of John's vision and prophecy of Revelation: 1.Tiberius, 2.Caligula, 3.Claudius, 4.Nero, 5.(year of the 4 emperors 68-69ad)Galba, 6.Otho, 7.Vitellius, and the eight, Flavius Vespian, the beast (69-79ad). Fact #2http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_Rome#Year_of_the_Four_Emperors_.2868.E2.80.9369.29 ://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperi....E2.80.9369.29 Fact #3 The fourth beast is the Kingdom of Rome,Flavius ended the Julia Ceasar dynasty and started his own with his two sons (the ninth and tenth emperors)Titus Flavius Vespianus and Titus Flavius Domitianus. Fact #4Rev 17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. Dan 7:7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it [was] diverse from all the beasts that [were] before it; and it had ten horns.Fact #5 The little horn and the 5th beast is the same. Nerva (11th emperor 96-98ad) uprooted the Flavian Dynasty and started his own called the Nerva-Antonian Dynasty consisting of Hadrian and Trajan, the horns represents emperors.Because of my lack of time I must stop here but I will continue next Sunday, same time! Research Flamen Dialis (Roman high priest) and Flavius Josepheus( Jewish historian).Dan 7:8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn [were] eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great thingsRev 13:11-12 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
