Yes, too many people think it is the end of all things.
The end of the earthly kingdom.
The new Patriot Party logo is a lion, a beast.
What if the Patriot Party gets so popular, it turns into the mark of the beast?
Of the four beasts in Daniel representing the nations of the world, a Lion with Wings of an Eagle is one. It is NOT the beast of revelations which is described as a dragon and "unlike any beast that came before it."
Nebuchadneezer is given a dream of the statue, that is how MANKIND sees our kingdoms over time. Babylon was the greatest (it lasted over a thousand years and ruled over everything else), our civilization the weakest and "last." Later Danial is given the vision of the Beasts representing the same kingdoms. That is how GOD sees our "kingdoms," as mere beasts.
"Western Civilization" is one kingdom as seen by God, not many. The greco-roman-Chrstian world we call "democracies" and "republics" and "monarchies" are all cut from the same cloth, that of the Roman empire. It doesn't matter how many times we change the names, the flags, the laws, the boundaries between states, it's all the same core civilization that hasn't changed since the graffiti on the walls in Pompe. Kings or Presidents, Lords or Senators, house of commons or house of representatives, the core of our society and laws has not changed since the Roman bill of rights. One fractured civilization of Iron and Clay, sometimes strong, sometimes weak.
The Beast that rises from the sea (out of no-where) will be a nation unlike the ones that came before. A total technocratic nightmare of communism that eradicates all remnants of the greco-roman civilization and does away with all rights and property would certainly fit that bill. Throw a new muslim Caliphate at the head of that system, and an army the likes of which the world has never seen will rise up from their entrenched positions all across the world in a single day.
Any 4 footed mammal can be referred to as a beast. The Mark is in reference to something else.
The Mark of the Beast. Revelation 16:2 and 19:20 cite the "mark of the beast" as a sign that identifies those who worship the beast out of the sea ( Rev 13:1). This beast is usually identified as the antichrist. This mark is first mentioned in 13:16-17, where it is imposed on humanity by the beast out of the earth ( 13:11). Some say that is the Roman Catholic church.
