The Third Beast:
Now, you might think that this beast should be called the first beast since it happened first. But those first two beasts above are at this end time and in this age. The beast that I'm going to outline here is from the last age and is very similar to the first beast above.
Rev 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
Rev 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
Now notice that this beast appeared in heaven. The beast in Rev 13:1 came up out of the sea (people). It's obvious that this beast is the devil or dragon, or at least he is the leader of it.
It is very important to notice that this beast has seven heads and ten horns also, but that the crowns are on the heads, not on the horns as they were in Rev 13:1.
The kings of this beast had actual kingoms, which means they were kings with dominions. Now what happened with this beast is that it drew a third part of the stars of heaven with it's tail.
If you read the book of Job, you will learn that GOD calls HIS children stars, and the fact that the devil drew these stars with his tail means that he did it behind the scenes with deception.
The devil got one third of GOD'S children to go against GOD and try to take GOD'S THRONE!
The reason that GOD'S children are here in flesh on this earth is to give them a chance to come back to HIM. HE had the choice to destroy those children that rebelled against HIM, but HE chose to destroy the age instead and give those children a chance to be saved by being born of woman, innocently with a veil so that they would not remember what happened in the last age and thereby allow those children to choose who they would love, HIM or satan.
Notice also that the devil tried to spoil GOD'S Plan. The dragon tried to devour the man child as soon as it was born. That basically means he tried to stop the seed of CHRIST and make war with the saints, which are the True followers of CHRIST. But in the end, the devil will pay his price, along with all that choose to follow him:
Eze 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Eze 28:14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Eze 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
Eze 28:16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
Eze 28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Eze 28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
As stated in Ezekiel 28:8, GOD will turn satan to ashes from the inside out. With every step you take, choose what would please GOD, not what would please satan.
And remember, we have a redeemer, so repent and ask forgiveness. HE knows our shortcomings and paid the price for us.
Isa_49:26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
Isa_59:20 And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
