Government of the Beast

In a few years a very powerful government led by a dictator ruler will rise. This leader is depicted in the Book of Revelation as a leopard-looking beast.

The Leopard-like Beast is the leader of the powerful One World Government

One reason behind the rise of this government of the Leopard Beast is the Rapture. When thousands of Christians, young and old, disappear from planet Earth, the Devil will feel his treasure (people) is being stolen from him. He knows that God will not rapture or save people who have the mark of the beast, so he will try to have everyone implanted to avoid any future raptures.

Matthew 24:39-42
For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. And they were oblivious, until the flood came and swept them all away. So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. …Two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come.

Some Christians left behind though, will notice that people are missing, but the Devil will try to convince them that nothing has happened and everything is still the same. The news media will say that all those rumors are "conspiracy theories" from Christians.

2 Peter 3:3-4
Most importantly, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. “Where is the promise of His coming?” they will ask. “ Ever since our fathers fell asleep, everything continues as it has from the beginning of creation.”

Will the United Nations be used to form a powerful One World Government?

The Dragon (Satan) becomes so frustrated with his failed attempts to destroy the seed of Abraham because they escaped with God, that he gears all his efforts into a ruthless government with which he will persecute the Left Behind.  We invite you to read the file Woman with 12 Stars.

Revelation 13:1
And he [Satan] stood upon the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns, and seven heads, and on his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads names of blasphemy. 

The Bible talks about a Leopard-like Beast during end times.

Revelation 13:2
And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority. 

If "dragon" refers to Satan, then this leader becomes at this moment the most Satanic ruler ever to exist on the face of the Earth.


Revelation 13:3

And [I saw] one of his heads as though it had been smitten unto death; and his death-stroke was healed: and the whole earth wondered after the beast;

This leader receives a severe wound, but recuperates and becomes even more powerful. 

It is obvious that this beastly man receives some type of attack, a severe one (as though smitten unto death), but the aggressor underestimated the fact that the beast has Satan himself behind him. 

Revelation 13:4
and they worshipped the dragon, because he gave his authority unto the beast; and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? And who is able to war with him? 

People from now on worship the devil himself.  Obeying this leader is the same as obeying Satan, because Satan is using this "beast" to accomplish his evil desires.  The people on earth obey the orders given by this leader and feel that they have no other choice. The army of the beast is something to be feared and commands admiration.

Revelation 13:5
and there was given to him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and there was given to him authority to continue forty and two months. 

Revelation 13:6
And he opened his mouth for blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, [even] them that dwell in the heaven. 

The Beast will utter blasphemies against God, against God's name (YHVH), against God's temple, and against those who dwell in heaven. 

The Leopard-like Beast spoke blasphemies

This person will not be a Christian. Furthermore, this person will persecute the Christians. This beast knows that YHVH is the one who rescued the Christians who at this time might be living in Paradise.  It will be a time of extreme suffering for the ones Left Behind.  Remember the parable of the Ten Virgins; there will be some Christians Left Behind.  All other religious groups will probably be spared, but if you obey YHVH.... that will mean a continuous persecution from the Government of the Beast till death, worse than what Hitler did with the Jews.

Revelation 13:7
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation. 

Revelation 13:8
And ALL that dwell on the earth shall worship him,  whose name hath not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that hath been slain. 

Notice that the government of the beast has power over EVERY NATION.  At this time in history, there might be NO PLACE of escape on planet earth.

Revelation 13:9
If any man hath an ear, let him hear. 

Listen to YHVH's  warning NOW, because after the Rapture it will be too late for you.

Revelation 13:10
If any man [is] for captivity, into captivity he goes: if any man shall kill with the sword, with the sword must he be killed. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. 

The saints that will be living on earth at that time will have to exercise much faith.  This is a time in history in which being a true Christian will be a hard test to pass, especially "to love your enemies."

The Lamb-Like beast spoke as a dragon.

Revelation 13:11
And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like unto lamb, and he spoke as a dragon. 

Revelation 13:12
And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his sight. And he makes the earth and them dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose death-stroke was healed. 

Revelation 13:13
And he does great signs, that he should even make fire to come down out of heaven upon the earth in the sight of men. 

Revelation 13:14
And he deceives them that dwell on the earth by reason of the signs which it was given him to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who hath the stroke of the sword and lived. 

This second beast uses signs to get people to worship the Leopard Beast.  

Revelation 13:15
And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause that as many as should not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

Revelation 13:16
And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark on their right hand, or upon their forehead; 

The second beast (false prophet) gives the orders to implant every human being on earth with the mark of the beast. 

On October 13, 2004 the FDA approved the Verichip for human implantation, to be used for medical purposes.  At the present time, people who receive these microchip implants do so voluntarily, but in the future, the false prophet will make it mandatory.  

Is this the mark of the beast?

The uses of the microchip will also be more varied.  It will be required as a verification device.  This is how Veripay works.

Revelation 13:17
and that no man should be able to buy or to sell, save he that hath the mark, [even] the name of the beast or the number of his name. 

Revelation 13:18
Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty and six. 

In this day and age of the internet, it is easy for a hacker to break into a database and steal credit card numbers and the pin numbers.  Because of the ease with which these numbers can be stolen, the Government of the Beast will force everyone to accept the mark.  The mark of the beast makes stealing credit cards difficult because the person must identify himself in making a transaction.  

As we get closer to the time when this Beast will rise, it is important to identify him. See Identity of the Beast.

To identify the beast we must notice that it has power over all other nations.  In the past, there have been mighty empires that ruled over other nations, but they did not have the technology to implement the mark of the beast.  It is only NOW that this technology has become available.  It is only NOW that we start recognizing the signs of the end.

Let us remember that God only reveals the details of His plans at the proper time, to the generation that will be affected, and only to those that diligently ask Him.  The reason for this is that if the Devil knew ahead of time all the details, he would mount an intense opposition against God's plan, hinder God's rescue, and try to make God appear as a liar.

The result is, that the complete understanding of a prophecy is usually acquired after the prophecy is fulfilled.

Example:

Jesus rode into Jersalem on a Donkey's colt. Zechariah 9:9
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! 
Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem! 
Behold, your king is coming to you; 
He is just and endowed with salvation, 
Humble, and mounted on a donkey, 
Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

This prophecy, quoted from the book of Zechariah, was fulfilled by Yeshua, our Messiah.

Matthew 21:5
SAY TO THE DAUGHTER OF ZION, 
'BEHOLD YOUR KING IS COMING TO YOU, 
GENTLE, AND MOUNTED ON A DONKEY, 
EVEN ON A COLT, THE FOAL OF A BEAST OF BURDEN.' 

Jesus fulfilled the prophecy by using a donkey to enter Jerusalem on His last Passover week.

Matthew 21:7
and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their coats on them; and He sat on the coats.

The apostles recognized that this was prophesied about Jesus AFTER he sat on the donkey and entered Jerusalem.

Therefore, the rapture will take many by surprise.

After the Rapture, the angels will warn the Left Behind not to submit to the requests of the Leopard Beast, especially not to accept the Mark.

Revelation 14:9
And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, If any man worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead, or upon his hand, 

Revelation 14:10
he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is prepared unmixed in the cup of his anger; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 

Revelation 14:11
and the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest day and night, they that worship the beast and his image, and whoso receives the mark of his name. 

The ones that disobey this evil government leader will be victorious as they will attain eternal life and forever be with YHVH and His Christ.

Revelation 15:2
And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire; and them that come off victorious from the beast, and from his image, and from the number of his name, standing by the sea of glass, having harps of God. 

Revelation 16:2
And the first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth; and it became a noisome and grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and that worshipped his image. 

Revelation 16:10
And the fifth poured out his bowl upon the throne of the beast; and his kingdom was darkened; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 

Revelation 16:13
And I saw [coming] out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, as it were frogs: 

Revelation 19:19
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat upon the horse, and against his army. 

The government of this evil leader continues till the coming of Christ for the Battle of Armageddon.  That means from the time of the rapture to the Battle of Armageddon there is a short time, because the Beast is still alive and he is the ruler of this important government.  It is at this time in history that all nations get together to fight the returning Christ and His Saints. 

The Leopard Beast and its False Prophet deceive all nations into a combined global defense against a common enemy, but this time Christ does not leave. He stays to fight the great Battle of Armageddon.

Revelation 19:20
And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought the signs in his sight, wherewith he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast and them that worshipped his image: they two were cast alive into the lake of fire that burns with brimstone: 

Christ is victorious as the last human government is destroyed.  Its leaders -- the Beast and the False Prophet -- are both cast into the Lake of Fire.  What follows is the Millennium -- a thousand years of peace and joy upon the earth.

Revelation 20:4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as worshipped not the beast, neither his image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand; and they lived, and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 

Revelation 20:10
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet; and they shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
