The Beast of the Sea
We start in Revelation Chapter 13 with the beast of the sea:
1Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name.
Rev 13 NKJV
The sea is described in Chapter 17
15 Then he said to me, “The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues
My interpretation is that this is America. We are made up of many people, nations, and tongues. USA is the Melting Pot for a reason.
1…and on his heads a blasphemous name.
Rev 13 NKJV
People called him a bunch of names, I wont list any here but there is a website that does it for me: https://www.findnicknames.com/nicknames-for-donald-trump/
2Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
Rev 13 NKJV
Leopards have camouflage patterns which provided concealment from prey, also predators and competitors. Its used for deception:
Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Hands were like a Bear, a lot of focus was placed on his hands: Article: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/history-donald-trump-small-hands-insult/story?id=37395515
Mouth was like a lion, we don’t need many examples to prove this: Article: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/trump-s-worst-offense-mocking-disabled-reporter-poll-finds-n627736
You can see how much emphasis the media gave to these trivial things, I believe it was for a reason. These were the signs that believers needed to recognize but were fooled to ignore.
3And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast.
Rev 13 NKJV
The head wound is a “Plague of Judicial Punishment”. Look at the greek works using BlueLEtterBible.org the true meaning of wound in greek is plege, or in English Plague. The greek word for sword is defined as judicial punishment. Watch this short video breakdown:
As Trump leaves office weakened, Republicans wonder if his wounds are fatal:
The headwound isn’t what people think it is. We can clearly see with the evidence presented that Trump fits the bill for a plague of judicial punishment. Here is your greek goddess with her sword for reference:
Lady Justice
The Beast of the Earth
11Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.
Rev 13 NKJV
The two horns like a lamb brought me to this Daniel prophecy:
3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
Daniel 8 NKJV
The first horn, I believe, is USSR, and the second horn is Russia, which is higher and came up last.
We can see how Rev 13:11 could fit the bill nicely for Putin being the Beast of the Earth. We are already seeing him starting war with Ukraine, and Biden is keeping hands off in a physical way. I believe this is because the tensions will be allowed to rise and people will be begging for Trump to come back:
4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
Rev 13 NKJV
and he:
11…spoke like a dragon.
Rev 13 NKJV
Putin’s also speaks like a dragon, much like Trump. That’s why they “collude” together. See how the craziness of the media was for a reason? This was a sign that they are two bad men, two images of beasts.
12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Rev 13 NKJV
He has the authority of the first beast because they will both be world leaders/Presidents of their respective countries. Because Putin is portrayed as a bad man of the world, and America is the “peace keeper”, Trump will be propped up as the “savior” of Ukraine or maybe more when he retaliates against Russia. Trump claims Putin would not have invaded Ukraine on his watch.
13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
Rev 13 NKJV
These signs are not “god like”. This is simply warfare, missiles, or worse, nukes.
14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.
Rev 13 NKJV
These actions will cause people around the world to support Trump in a big way. Trump will show his ‘strength’ against big bad Putin. The image of the beast could be many things. Simply the human body is an image, just as our Messiah was described as the image to the invisible God:
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
Colossians 1
15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
Rev 13 NKJV
Putin will further give breath/power to Trump and cause non beast worshippers to be killed by Trump. This could be the people in Russia getting bombed by USA. The image that can speak is Trump himself (beast is spiritual), just as he led his followers to the acts they committed at the Capitol on Jan. 6th, without having to directly tell them too, this will be the case when people start getting killed. Keeping in mind that other nations will receive power with the beast and have one mind with the beast, these nations will feel impowered too join in the fight.
15 Then he said to me, “The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues. 16 And the ten horns which you [g]saw on the beast, these will hate the harlot, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire. 17 For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled. 18 And the woman whom you saw is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.”
Rev 17 NKJV
New York City comes to mind that this where Trump reigns. Of course as President, DC could fit this bill perfectly as well.
I know the typical interpretation of these two beasts are the “Antichrist and False Prophet”. People tend to think the way the 2nd beast of the earth is going to support the beast of the sea in a positive manner. As if they are working together as team mates. However, that is just a interpretation (just like the one in this article). It seems more likely that the 2 beasts are going to war against each other and this causes people to die because of it. It also causes people around the world to take sides and either worship the beast or not and get killed.
