Catholicism vs Protestantism

Of course, that is why the SDA exists. So people throw the baby out with the bath water.

Does this link work for you?

Or is this better? Search for the word "Roman"

This gets into the confusing question, "Is the 'man of sin' the Beast or the False Prophet?" Are you saying the Pope is the antiChrist (Beast) or the Beast's P.R. man (false prophet)?

And muslim don't believe It, so catholic is lie

So first beast in rev 13 is roman emperor, end at AD 1204, then second beast is pope and may rule for 42 month Will end about the years 2460.
Rev 13 say this second beast Will enforce the law for every body to take mark of the beast why we still able to sale or buy now?

No time limit given for the second beast. Only time limit given of 42 months for the first beast.

Before understanding the mark of the beast, one must understand the image of the beast.

The image of the beast is the image of the dead man on the cross (crucifix). The second beast (Roman Catholic Church) set up an image in honor of the first beast: the crucifix. Since the first beast is the Roman Empire that executed people by crucifixion, it makes perfect sense that the image of the beast is a dead man on a cross (crucifix).

Please read carefully the two links.

1) Fulfillment of Rev 13:14 False signs and wonders have been fulfilled by Roman Catholic Church.

2) Fulfillment of Rev 13:15 The image coming alive and speaking has been fulfilled by the Roman Catholic Church. . "Jesus came alive and spoke to Thomas."

Yep, I am from muslim country

Man of Sin is the False Prophet.

Before Jesus walked on the earth there was one beast at a time. Both government and religion were mixed together like:
1) Greek empire (government) and the Greek Gods (religion).
2) Roman republic/empire (government) and the Roman Gods (religion).
3) Nebuchadnezzer was ruler of the Babylonian empire (government) who also set up an image to worship (religion).

After Jesus died for our sins and rose form the dead, thus defeating Satan, Satan became like a wounded animal and became even more dangerous.
Since 1st century AD satan now uses two beasts to attack the world

1st beast (government) works in cooperation with the 2nd beast (False Christianity)
2nd beast (Roman Empire) worked in cooperation with the 2nd beast (Roman Catholic Church)

beast is an imperial and/or tyrannical government
false prophet or man of lawlessness is a false religious christian leader.

Today the beast is not (no imperial government for us right now), but the false prophet perpetuates. See Rev 17. we are at present are dealing with the "Prostitute of Babylon".

Islam has so much wrong about God and Scripture I wonder how any can say Muslims worship the same God

Rev 13

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

Why this verse not come to Indonesia or usa yet?
We able to buy and sale now.

Because the era of the 2nd beast is over now.
This was fulfilled during the middle ages in the form of the inquisition.
Those who would not worship the beast were subject to torture and to be burned at the stake.

Those who would not work sip the beast were subject to lesser or greater excommunication. greater excommunication resulted in ostracizing to the point where those excommunicated could not buy or sell or eat or drink with others. fulfilled.

Those who worshipped the image of the beast (crucifix) are also marked with it by the priest's right hand. Or their own right hand in making the sign of the cross, or the sign of the crucifix.

ONE MORE POINT. The crucifix spoke to Thomas Aquinas saying, "you have written well of me". Thomas wrote of justification for the murdering of heretics (inquisition). Thomas was one of the most important figures in the Dominican Order which was instrumental in implementing the inquisition.

Everything has been fulfilled.

The inquistion remember did not happen in the Eastern (Greek) Church. But 2nd beast had two horns which represents the East/West Schism that occuring in 1054AD prior to the start of the inquistions.


Therefore. There is no requirement for the all inhabitants of the earth to be killed for refusing the mark.
Note how Rev 13:15 reads in the ESV

Rev13:15 ESV
And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.

Death for not worshipping the image MIGHT cause those to be killed. Not saying all will be killed.

Interesting, but I'll stick with the fact that they are particular persons and not titles or offices. To say they are tiyles with people filling those titles is a bit disingenuous.

And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. (Rev 19:20).

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. (Rev 13:11).

BTW, you or anyone else may find this an interesting link.

Almost like a modern Martin Luther without the 'sola'.

OK. But I will leave you with this one thing to ponder.

If they are particular persons, and they are thrown alive into the lake of fire, this creates a contradict between Revelation 19:20 and Hebrews 9:27.

Hebrews 9:27
And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment,

However, If you consider the beast and false prophet as two demons who hold power over two offices, then there is no contradiction between Revelation 19:20 and Hebrews 9:27.

So you would be willing to say that the pope in question (at the time in the end) will be a demon rather than human?

The era second beast is over, so you believe pope francis is not second beast, am I correct?

Yes, the era of the 2nd beast is over. The imperial governments of europe have also been relaced by secular democratic governments.

therefore the 2nd beast and the 1st beast are not today.
The inquisitions are over.

"After nearly four centuries of activity, the Spanish Inquisition executed its last victim, a schoolteacher named Cayetano Ripoll, today (July 26) in 1826. From 1478-1834, inquisitors strove to ensure orthodoxy within the Catholic Church, often using torture to extract confessions from those accused of heresy."

The Beast is not, but the False Prophet persists. He sits on the throne in the Vatican.

Excommunication means essentially nothing today. The Roman Catholic Church in the 20th century has entered into beginnings of the fulfillment of The Prostitute of Babylon Revelation chapter 17.

Today she sits on many waters and is seeking ecumenical communion with all denominations.

Today the mark of the beast is voluntary. Today, they stress that ashes are voluntary on ash wednesday for this reason. To deceive the world. Make no mistake they are imposed with right hand on forehead. The truth is that the mark of the beast was forced upon the world in the middle ages, and Rev 13:15-17 was already fulfilled.

I believe catholic is luciferian, they work for Lucifer to build one world religion, to embrace muslim to help her agenda catholic say you worship same God as I do.
It is lie

You Said first beast end at 1204 mean second beast start at 1204 than you Said second beast happen at 1054, kind of little confusing for me
