Revelations Chapter 131 Then 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. 2 Now 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. 3 And 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. 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?" 5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and
blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two
months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God,
to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in
heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to
overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the
earth will worship him, whose
names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 He who leads into
captivity shall go into captivity; he
who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the
patience and the faith of the saints. 11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he
had two horns like a lamb and
spoke like a dragon. 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. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 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. 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. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free
and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their
foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or
the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has
understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is
666.
John saw seven heads meaning 7 empires that were all enemies to
the God of Israel:
1. Egyptian Empire -1 King Fallen2. Assyrian Empire – 1King Fallen3. Babylonian Empire -1 King Fallen4. Medo-Persian Empire – 1 King Fallen
5. Grecian Empire – 4 Kings Fallen6. Roman Empire – 1 King Fallen (John was under this empire when he wrote Revelation) 7. Ottoman Turkish Empire – 1 King
Revelation 17:7-127 But the angel said to me, "Why did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has
the seven heads and the ten horns.
8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the
bottomless pit and go to perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not
written in the Book of Life from the
foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. 9 Here is the mind
which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on
which the woman sits. 10 There
are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has
not yet come. And when he comes, he must continue a short time. 11 And the beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of
the seven, and is going to perdition.

2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard (Grecian Empire -Syria-Lebanon), and his feet were as the feet of a bear (Medo-Persia

LORD has heard your affliction. 12 He shall be a wild man; His hand shall be against every man, And
every man's hand against him. And he shall dwell in the presence of all
his brethren."
and the dragon (Satan) gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his
heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was
healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. 4 And they worshipped the dragon which
gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 5 And
there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and
blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two
months. 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God,
to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in
heaven. 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to
overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and
tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of
the world. 9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
Revelation 20:4-54 And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed
to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their
witness to Jesus and for the word of
God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not
received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ
for a thousand years.

among the nations; They have also divided up My land. Saints,
