Who or What is the Beast?

Who or What is the Beast?

Keep in mind that scripture speaks of two beasts, not one. If you ask many end-time prophecy interpreters, who or what is the beast most would claim that it’s the Church of Rome [that is before the current ecumenical movement] and would be partly true, but this is only one of the beast and not the original beast that ascended the throne of King Solomon’s temple, God’s Throne on earth, this was not Rome or the pagans:

“And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a place for the wine fat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country. And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant [a prophet] that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard. And they [the Beast] caught him and beat him sent him away empty. And again, he sent another servant [another prophet;] and at him they [the Beast] cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled. And again, he sent another; and him they killed, and many other; beating some and killing some. Having yet therefore one Son [Jesus Christ] well beloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, they will reverence my son. [Jesus.] But the husbandmen said among themselves, this is the heir; come, lets us kill him [Jesus] and the inheritance shall be ours. And they took him, and killed him, and caste him out of the vineyard” [coup d'état] [Mark 12:1- 8.]

Can you identify the beast that staged the coup d’état that stole God’s Throne on earth?

Hi Royff, There is a lot to understand about symbols between Daniels great statue and beast and The beasts in Revelation. The Statue in Daniel 2:36-45. Understanding the Statue will help explain a lot in Revelation of the two beast in Revelation chapter 13.

A demon!

The proof:

And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false-prophet. For they are spirits of demons doing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world to gather them together for the battle of the great day of God Almighty.​

Mark 12:1-8 is about Israel (the vineyard; Psalms 80:15)and their response to Jesus.
The servants and the son sent to the keepers of the vineyard are the prophets and the Messiah. (Jesus)
The renters of the vineyard are the scribes, pharisees and Sadducees.
The passage has nothing to do with the beast(s) of Revelation.

The notion that the Beast could be the RCC comes not from scripture but from the vitriol and propaganda of the wars of the reformation.
