There are three beasts in the book of Revelation: The Beast Out of The Sea, The Beast Out of The Earth, and the Beast Out of The Bottomless Pit. The Beast Out of The Sea, also known as the Beast of Revelation, will one day rule the entire world, but where will he come from? Does the Bible say where the Beast will come from? Join ArieRashelle as she searches through Scripture for the answers in her video, The Beast Out of The Sea Pt. 2: Where Will He Come From?

The Beast Out of The Sea
Where Will The Beast Come From?
1 And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems on its horns and blasphemous names on its heads.2 And the beast that I saw was like a leopard; its feet were like a bear’s, and its mouth was like a lion’s mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority.3 One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast. 4 And they worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it?” 5 And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months. 6 It opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven. 7 Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them. And authority was given it over every tribe and people and language and nation, 8 and all who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain. 9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear: 10 If anyone is to be taken captive, to captivity he goes; if anyone is to be slain with the sword, with the sword must he be slain. Here is a call for the endurance and faith of the saints.
Our freedoms are dwindling all around us. Everywhere we turn, someone is trying to take away our freedom while trying to convince us that we want it because it’s for our own good. But is it really for our own good? Why do we need to give up so many of our freedoms? What is their end goal? Will the Church be persecuted? Do the conspiracies of a One World Government (The New World Order) and the persecution of the Church have any truth to them? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to coming persecution of the Church in his sobering message, The Cost of Following Pt. 5: The Threat.
What does the Bible say about the persecution of the Church? Here are a few instances of the Church going through tribulation under a One World Order.
1 And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems on its horns and blasphemous names on its heads. 2 And the beast that I saw was like a leopard; its feet were like a bear’s, and its mouth was like a lion’s mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority. 3 One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast. 4 And they worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it?”
5 And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months. 6 It opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven. 7 Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them. And authority was given it over every tribe and people and language and nation, 8 and all who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain. 9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear:
10 If anyone is to be taken captive, to captivity he goes; if anyone is to be slain with the sword, with the sword must he be slain.
Here is a call for the endurance and faith of the saints.
Revelation 13:1-10
According to Revelation 13, we have the coming threat of the Beast who, as leader of the New World Order (a One World Government), will make war on the Saints of God. The Saints of God are the Church.
15 So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house, 18 and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak. 19 And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! 20 Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. 22 And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
Matthew 24:15-22
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Matthew 24:29-31
It isn’t until after the Great Tribulation that the rapture (the second coming of Christ) occurs. During this time, the Church will be under persecution like never before under the rule of a One World Government (The New World Order). This calls for great faith and endurance of the Church. This is the threat that is coming upon the Church. We have to prepare for the threat that is upon us instead of turning a blind eye because it makes us uncomfortable and filled with fear.
We don’t’ have to be afraid of this coming threat because Jesus has already conquered and we conquer through Him.
11 And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.
In our fifth video, The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Fourth Beast Pt. 1, the fourth beast as a king, is Lucifer who is also called Abaddon. He is described as being terrifying, which also means awesome or revered, like the name of God, which was Lucifer’s original sin of trying to be equal to God the Father. He is also the King of Terror which is why Daniel describes the fourth beast as being dreadful and why he goes to destruction. The Fourth Beast is stronger than any of the other beasts, which is why Leviathan needs his help to take down the strong fortresses.
In our sixth video, The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Fourth Beast Pt. 2, we discussed that the ten horns on Abaddon’s head are the ten kings that will receive royal power from the Beast. The beast will also divide the land of Israel among other nations to give each of the ten kings a kingdom of his own. The ten kings will then give their authority, power, and land to Abaddon who will form the fourth kingdom, which is Mystery Babylon. This is why John records, in Revelation 17, that Mystery Babylon is carried in or established by Abaddon. These ten kings then rule over Mystery Babylon or the fourth kingdom with Abaddon for one hour. The reason they only get one hour with Abaddon is because three of the ten kings are cut down by the Man of Lawlessness as he rises to power. The Man of Lawlessness is the Son of Destruction since Abaddon is the Hebrew word for destruction.
This is now our Seventh and Final video, The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Fourth Beast Pt. 3. Join ArieRashelle as she goes into great detail about the Little Horn on the Fourth Beasts’ head and the outcome of all four beasts.

The Fourth Beast of Daniel 7 Pt. 3 Verses and Summary:
25He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time. 26But the court shall sit in judgment, and his dominion shall be taken away, to be consumed and destroyed to the end.
Daniel 7:25-26
22 And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
Matthew 24:22
8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming.
2 Thessalonians 2:8
The Four Beasts of Daniel 7 Outcome:
The little horn is the Man of Lawlessness whose dominion is cut short and killed by the coming of Jesus. Lucifer is also killed when Jesus comes back to get His bride, the Church, and he is then thrown into the Lake of Fire. Satan, the Beast, and the False Prophet then send out evil spirits to convince the kings of the earth to go to war against Jesus, but Jesus kills the kings of the earth and their armies by the sword of His mouth. The beast and the False Prophet are thrown into the Lake of Fire alive.
Satan is then chained up in the Bottomless Pit during the Thousand Year Reign of Christ, after which he is released to wage war along with those who took the Mark of The Beast against Jerusalem and the Church. Fire comes down from heaven and burns up all of the people who attacked the Church and Jerusalem, and then Satan is thrown into the Lake of Fire for all Eternity after this is the Last Judgment.
As we discussed in our last video, The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Fourth Beast Pt. 1, the fourth beast as a king is Lucifer, who is also called Abaddon. He is described as being terrifying, which also means awesome or revered, like the name of God, which was Lucifer’s original sin of trying to be equal to God the Father. He is also the King of Terror, which is why Daniel describes the fourth beast as being dreadful and why he goes to destruction. This fourth beast is stronger than any of the other beasts, which is why Leviathan needs his help to take down the strong fortresses. Join ArieRashelle as she searches through Scripture to find out who the fourth beast is as a kingdom, as well as the ten horns and the eleventh horn that comes up before which three of the original horns fell, in our video The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Fourth Beast Pt. 2.

The Fourth Beast of Daniel 7 Pt. 2 Verses and Summary:
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, terrifying and dreadful and exceedingly strong. It had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces and stamped what was left with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns. 8 I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots. And behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.
Daniel 7:7-8
23 Thus he said: ‘As for the fourth beast, there shall be a fourth kingdom on earth, which shall be different from all the kingdoms, and it shall devour the whole earth, and trample it down, and break it to pieces.’ 24 As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings shall arise, and another shall arise after them; he shall be different from the former ones, and shall put down three kings.
Daniel 7:23-24
The Fourth Beast of Daniel 7 has ten horns:
These ten kings will receive royal power from the Beast Out of The Sea. The beast will also divide the land of Israel among other nations to give each of the ten kings a kingdom of his own. The ten kings will then give their authority, power, and land to Abaddon, who will form the fourth kingdom, which is Mystery Babylon. This is why John records, in Revelation 17, that Mystery Babylon is carried in or established by Abaddon. These ten kings then rule over Mystery Babylon or the fourth kingdom with Abaddon for one hour.
The reason they only get one hour with Abaddon is because three of the ten kings are cut down by the Man of Lawlessness as he rises to power. The Man of Lawlessness is the Son of Destruction, which can be interpreted as the Son of Abaddon since Abaddon is the Hebrew word for destruction.
The Fourth Beast of Daniel 7 as a Kingdom :
This kingdom will rise or be established after the death of the Two Witnesses. The Two Witnesses testify in Jerusalem until Abaddon arises and kills them after their testimony is complete. Then, the Beast will divide up the land of Israel (presumably with other nations) to the ten kings, so they each have a chunk of Israel for each of their kingdoms. But they each give their power, authority, and land to Abaddon, who then forms the Fourth Kingdom.
The Fourth Kingdom has to include the land of Israel because the little horn that comes out of this kingdom is the Man of Lawlessness, and he is the one who sits in the Temple of God and declares himself to be God.
3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, 4 who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
So far, we’ve unpacked the first three beasts of Daniel 7 in our past four videos. The first beast we identified as Satan, the Dragon of Revelation. The second beast we identified as Leviathan, the Beast of Revelation. And the third beast we identified as Belial, the False Prophet of Revelation. This just leaves the fourth beast. Because there are so many different parts of the fourth beast, we’ll break this last beast into three separate videos. Join ArieRashelle as she goes through who the fourth beast is as a king in our video, The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Fourth Beast Pt. 1.

The Fourth Beast of Daniel 7 Pt. 1 Summary:
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, terrifying and dreadful and exceedingly strong. It had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces and stamped what was left with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns. 8 I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots. And behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.
Daniel 7:7-8
17 These four great beasts are four kings who shall arise out of the earth.
The book of Daniel is filled with prophecies of the end times. Many are scary and frightening, especially the four beasts of Daniel 7. We’ve already gone through the first two beasts of Daniel 7 in our last three videos. In our first two videos we explained that Beast One was Satan and that Beast Two was Leviathan. Check out those videos below.
The third beast is described as a leopard with four wings, four heads, and dominion. Join ArieRashelle as she goes through each description of the third beast of Daniel 7 in her fourth video, The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Third Beast, to find the truth behind who this mysterious beast is.

Summary of The Third Beast of Daniel 7
6 After this I looked, and behold, another, like a leopard, with four wings of a bird on its back. And the beast had four heads, and dominion was given to it.
Daniel 7:6
As we stated in the video, the third beast is a leopard because it lies wait watching over its territory. It has two pairs of wings representing the two obligations of his people to receive protection from him. It has four heads representing the four leaders or spirits that it uses to deceive the world and the Church. Lastly, it is given dominion and/or authority.
As we stated in the video, the third beast is the Beast Out of The Earth, also known as the False Prophet. As we stated in our video ‘The Beast Out of The Earth,’ the False Prophet is Belial. The False Prophet is a false religious leader that leads the world and some of the Church astray.
Verses For The Time of The Third Beast of Daniel 7
5b I will not leave you or forsake you.
Joshua 1:5b
2 Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me.
Psalms 129:2
16 for the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity.
Proverbs 24:16
4 Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
Daniel’s vision of Daniel 7 was filled with four horrifying beasts. We discussed that the first beast is Satan and not a kingdom or nation in our first two videos. But who is the second beast that is like a bear? Join ArieRashelle as she searches through Scripture to find the right answer to this question in our video The Four Beasts of Daniel 7: The Second Beast.

Summary of The Second Beast of Daniel 7
The second beast of Daniel 7 has four descriptions in all:
A bear
Raised up on one side
Three ribs in its mouth
Told ‘Devour much flesh’
As we stated in the video, the bear represents the fierceness and aggression of a she-bear. It is only raised up on one side because the second beast has limited power. It has three ribs in its mouth because it tramples on the Church, but it does not destroy it. Lastly, it is told to ‘devour much flesh’ because it slaughters many human beings, especially those in the Church.
How can we be sure that the many of the Church will die during this time?
9 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne. 10 They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 11 Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.
Revelation 6:9-11
Words of Encouragement for the time of the second beast of Daniel 7
Don’t lose heart, don’t be distraught. As we stated in our videos, we overcome Satan and all of his kingdom by the Blood of the Lamb and The Word of our Testimony. We overcome because Jesus has already overcome the world. Don’t be discouraged, be encouraged by the spirit of God. Always remember:
8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.
The book of Daniel is filled with End Times mysteries. One of the most well-known chapters regarding the End Times is Daniel 7.

The First Beast of Daniel 7
4 The first was like a lion and had eagles’ wings. Then as I looked its wings were plucked off, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man, and the mind of a man was given to it.
Daniel 7:4
Who is the First Beast of Daniel 7?
Satan is the first beast of Daniel 7. His authority, rights, and his fall is all portrayed in Daniel’s vision of the four beasts.
8 Yet in like manner these people also, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and blaspheme the glorious ones. 9 But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, was disputing about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a blasphemous judgment, but said, “The Lord rebuke you.”
Jude 1:8-9
One of the revelations of Daniel 7, is Satan’s authority as a Glorious One.
The world is rampantly pushing God out of their homes, cities, countries, and even churches. Is it possible that the world is preparing for the end, and if it is the end, could it be The Great Tribulation? And if so, what if the Church has to endure the tribulation? Does Scripture tell us when the rapture will take place compared to The Tribulation? And if the Church has to go through it, is there a way to overcome the great tribulation?

The Great Tribulation: Does The Church Go Through It?
From the days of Paul, men and women were looking forward to the rapture. Some even thought that they had missed it during the time of Paul and the other apostles. As time goes by, the world runs farther and farther away from God and His ways. We often hear that Tribulation is coming, but when exactly? Paul prophecies of the way the world will turn during the end times in his second letter to Timothy.
1 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. 2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, 4 treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.
2 Timothy 3:1-5
The Rapture and The Great Tribulation
Overcoming The Great Tribulation
33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
John 1:5
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
We’ve all heard of the Beast of Revelation, but did you know Revelation speaks of multiple beasts? For instance, Revelation 13 speaks of the Beast Out of the Sea and the Beast Out of the Earth. The second beast of Revelation 13 is also known as the False Prophet. The False Prophet is often an overlooked character of the End Times. Is he just an ambiguous person with no big role? or is there more to him? Join ArieRashelle as she dissects Revelation 13 to find out who exactly the False Prophet is in our video, The Beast Out of The Earth.

The Beast Out of The Earth
The False Prophet
The Beast Out of The Earth is better known as the False Prophet. He rises to authority after the Beast Out of The Sea. The False Prophet is referred to as the False Prophet because he leads the whole world astray. He is the ultimate wolf in sheep clothing. His deception is so great that the whole world worships The Beast.
If Jesus were to come back and live amongst us, would you recognize Him? What does this have to do with the False Prophet? If you can’t recognize who Jesus is, then you will believe that anyone who preaches a different Christ. It won’t be as blatant as we think it will be, instead, it will be subtle. It’ll tickle our ears. This new Christ that the False Prophet describes will make us feel good. Why? Because he will call evil good and good evil.
This means that what was once sin will no longer be called sin. This is why most people fall into this trap. They will give into the lies of the False Prophet because they want to be happy. So, stay alert. Watch and pray so that when the day comes for the False Prophet and the Beast to rise to power, you will be able to see through their disguise.
14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
2 Corinthians 11:14
How to Spot the False Prophet/The Beast Out of the Earth
Know your Shepherd
Study your Bible. Learn who Jesus is. Learn who you are in Jesus. Seek wisdom from God. Continue to fight for righteousness. Don’t grow weary of doing good, in due time you will be rewarded. Don’t get caught up in tradition or religion, instead seek a real relationship with God so that you know His voice.
1 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. 2 But He who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To Him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear His voice, and He calls His own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When He has brought out all His own, He goes before them, and the sheep follow Him, for they know His voice. 5 A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.
