The Image of The Beast

Abiyah Bina

I write this with love, compassion, and in search for truth. Before reading I pray the Most High Yahuah opens your eyes to see and grants you ears to hear. I do not write to hurt people’s feeling or pass judgement. I write with sincere humility as a servant of the Most High Yahuah. I share what has been revealed to me through researching the scriptures with the help of the Holy Spirit.

Before we go further. Do not get offended with the terminology I use for God and Jesus. I choose to use Hebrew names because Jesus of the Bible was Hebrew. However one decides to call on His name should not be a stumbling block because according to one’s cultural, He has been called by many names. Even within the Hebrew language, there are different variations of His name. To my knowledge the only thing He does not want us to do is use His name in vain. He wants us to worship Him in spirit and truth. It is my personal preference to use Hebrew names. Please do not allow the terms I use to be a stumbling block. I know a lot of people are not familiar with the Hebrew names, so I will provide the names and meanings.

• Yahuah, Yah – Lord, God
• Yahusha HaMashiach – Jesus Christ (Salvation in the Messiah)
• Yahusha – Jesus (Salvation)
• Ruach HaQadash – Holy Spirit
• HaSatan – The Devil, the Adversary, Satan

There has been a lot of theories about who or what the image of the beast is that is written in Revelations 13:15 “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Who or what is this image of the beast that could speak and will kill if not worshiped? Some people believe this will happen sometime in the future and some believe this has already happened. What are your thoughts?

To understand who or what the image of the beast is, we must understand the dept of HaSatan’s deception. Revelations 12:9 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and HaSatan, which deceived the whole world; he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

Revelation 12:9 tells us that HaSatan deceived the whole world that we live in today. It does not say that HsSatan will deceive. This scripture is written in past tense meaning HaSatan has already laid out his deception. When I ask others about this scripture, most do not really want to take the time to think about it because they believe they have not been deceived. Do you think the deception is already here or is HaSatan’s deception to come?

According to my research and studies, I found that HaSatan’s deception has come long before any of us was ever born. We tend to follow and accept generational traditions and teaching passed on to us from our fathers, mothers, grandparents, and society. We accept what they teach us as truth and facts because they love us and would not lie to us. What if they too have been deceived and are not aware of it?

Paul in Galatians warns us that somebody was coming to preach another HaMashiach and gospel. Galatians 1:6-8 “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of HaMashiach unto another gospel.” “Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of HaMashiach.” “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”

Paul is telling us that someone would come and preach another gospel. He also says that if another person brings or preaches another gospel or HaMashiach, let him be accursed. Accursed means being under a curse or used to express strong dislike of or anger towards someone or something. Did this different HaMashiach or gospel already come? Or have we been taught that this deception is coming sometime in the future? I like to research history and line historical events with the scriptures. I believe it helps to see how the scriptures fit into our past and current lives today. I am going to explain how the deception has already came long before you or I was born.

A great deception come in around 1452 or 1453. This deception began during the Renaissance period. Renaissance is a French word meaning “rebirth.” Rome had originally fell in 193 AD under Didius Severus Julianu. Rome was resurrected again in year 1452/1453. This is where you get the word Renaissance. It was the rebirth of Rome under new leadership.

With the rebirth of Rome, became the rebirth of many traditions and beliefs. For this study, I will be focusing on one thing. During the Renaissance period, Roman artist began making the modern-day version of HaMashiach in their own likeness. In 1492, the new Roman Empire were making plans with Christopher Columbus after he read the Apocrypha. Which is in the movie, 1492: Conquest of Paradise. In the movie, Christopher Columbus said he read the Apocrypha and it told him the 10 tribes of Israel were living in a land called Osaba. You can also get this information from the Jewish Encyclopedia written in 1901 to 1906. It explains that after Christopher Columbus read the Apocrypha, he was inspired to find the 10 tribes of Israel that were living in a land flowing with milk and honey where no other man had ever lived before. You can also obtain this information in “The Book of Prophecies Edited by Christopher Columbus Vol III.” The book says that Columbus was on a quest to recover the Holy City and Mount Zion. It was also prophesied in the Book of Mormon, the arrival of a man among the Gentiles led to the tragic scattering and smiting of the Lamanites throughout the New World. 1 Nephi 13:14 “And it came to pass that I beheld many multitudes of the Gentiles upon the land of promise; and I beheld the wrath of Yahuah, that it was upon the seed of my brethren; and they were scattered before the Gentiles and were smitten.” “And I beheld the Spirit of the Lord, that it was upon the Gentiles, and they did prosper and obtain the land for their inheritance; and I beheld that they were white and exceedingly fair and beautiful, like unto my people before they were slain.”

Christopher Columbus was inspired by Yahuah to find the holy lands, but not everything he did was inspired by Yahuah. When he began his journey and when he arrived to the Americas, he had with him an image. This image was the modern-day image of the Yahusha HaMashiach also known as Jesus Christ. You may be saying it does not matter if an image was created in their own likeness. I wish that were true, but I will allow the scriptures to speak for itself.

Exodus 20:4 “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.” According to the scripture it clearly warns us to not make any images, but Christopher Columbus had an image that was created during the Renaissance period that represented Yahusha HaMashiach. This falls into what Paul had warned about; another person coming with a different HaMashiach and gospel. We will go over later to see how the scriptures describes HaMashiach.

Hebrews 13:8 “HaMashiach is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Malchi 3:6 “For I am Yahuah, I change not.” According to the scriptures it clearly states Yahuah and HaMashiach does not change, ever. It does not instruct us to recreate Him in any image according to anyone’s likeness. Yahuah and HaMashiach is the same yesterday, today, forever and they change not. 

John 7:38 “He that believeth on me, as the scriptures had said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.” HaMashiach said out of his own mouth, that he/she that should believed on him as the scriptures had said. HaMashiach did not say as your pastor, prophet, evangelist, teacher, Christian church, Baptist church, Catholic church had said. He said as the scriptures had said.

Let us go deeper to see if we are listening to man or the scriptures.

HaMashiach gave John some information (Revelations 1:1) that He knew John would need because there would be people coming that were going to bring another HaMashiach and gospel. What did HaMashiach want John to know?

Let’s take a look…

Revelations 13:6-8 “And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against Yahuah, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.” “And it was given unto him to make war with the saints (this happened in 70 AD, Siege of Jerusalem which is the first Jewish and Roman War. Isaiah 45:4-7 will tell you who the saints are), and to overcome them; and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.” “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are NOT written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

Power was given him over all kindreds, tongues and nations. Think… What country on earth today has all kindreds, tongues, and nations? Isn’t America called the great melting pot? America has all kindreds, tongues, and nations. Who is dominating the world? Which country is the superpower that goes into all other countries telling others what they can and cannot do? Who has been spreading democracy by the sword?

According to Revelations 13:6-8 there is a group of people on earth that are worshipping somebody, but these people names are not written in the Lamb’s book of life. Who is the whole earth recognizing and worshipping? Who was the image that Christopher Columbus brought with him when he arrived and settled in the Americas? I only know of one religion on earth that speaks about your name having to be written in a book of life. This is not to upset anyone, but to get peopel to think. The scriptures tell us the Devil has deceived the whole world. We must not be deceived by him from lack of knowledge.

Do you know who you are following? Churches today say it does not matter. The scriptures tell you it does matter according to John 7:38 “He that believeth on me, as the scripture had said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

Revelations 13:9 “if any man have an ear, let him hear.” HalleluYah

Revelations 13:14 “And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast, saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast which had the wound by a sword, and did live.” According to history, the beast power that suffered a wound but did live was the Roman Empire. In 193 AD the fall of the Roman Empire fell under Didius Severus Julianu and Septimius Severus and was resurrected in 1452/1453 during the Renaissance period.

For all those that say that it does not matter if HaMashiach is white, black, Japanese, Chinese, your Bible proved different. The Bible just warned us that we have to get it right, because we would be faced with another HaMashiach and gospel. If you want to make it, you got to make sure you are worshipping the right Messiah, because HaSatan in Revelations 12:9 has deceived the whole world.

Let’s keep going, there is more…

Revelations 13:15 “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” What is an image? An image is a representation of the external form of a person or thing in art. This image was created before Amerigo Vespucci (America was named after) and Christopher Columbus came to the Americas and began to take down the 10 tribes of the Northern Kingdom of the House of Israel in the Holy Lands. They brought an image with them and told the indigenous people that if they did not accept or bow to this image, they will die. Millions were killed because they would not bow down to the image of the beast.

During this time, the Romans worshipped Zeus. This is another reason why the Roman Catholic Church do not want people to read the Apocrypha because it gives their history. It tells you everything about the Greek and Roman Empire. How can the ones that are giving a false image tell others what they should and should not read? How can the ones that has got millions upon millions of people’s blood on their hands be the sole authority over the Bible and say what is inspired by Yahuah and what is not?

Let us continue with Revelations 13:15. We have some people who created an image of the beast and passing it off as if it is HaMashiach. Remember Revelations 13:8 – everybody that is worshipping this image, their name is not in the Lamb’s book of life. Do you still believe an image does not matter? I believe it does matter. Although most people say it doesn’t matter if HaMashiach is black, white, Chinese, Japanese etc.

We must humble ourselves and listen to what Yahuah and HaMashiach is telling us in the scriptures.

Let us continue with Revelations 13:15

How is an image going to speak? Romans 10:9-10 “That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Yahusha HaMashiach, and shalt believe in thine heart that Yuhuah has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” This scripture is what churches teach stating this is all that matters. However, after Paul’s warning that there will be another HaMashiach and gospel, I believe others needs to make sure they are following the correct HaMashiach and gospel. Romans 13:8 said there will be another HaMashiach and gospel. So, you can confess with your mouth and believe with your heart, but you better believe on HaMashiach (John 7:38) as the scriptures had said.

Most of us have been to a church that has the false image in their temples. Remember these images of HaMashicah are everywhere. They were here before we were born. Back in the 1400’s the image started spreading everywhere. This image of the beast is in churches, hotels, and all kinds of Bibles. THE IMAGE OF THE BEAST IS EVERYWHERE! You can go in restaurants and see the image of the beast; you can go in mechanic shops and see the image of the beast. It is in your nail and hair salons. You can see it on people’s cars and in people’s homes hanging on the wall.

Galatians 6:7 “Be not deceived; Yahuah is not mocked; for whatsever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” The image began to speak when people began to worship and bow to it.

We were just warned in Revelations 13:8, we were also warned in Revelations 13:14-15. That an image was going to be made and this image was going to blaspheme Yahuah, blaspheme heaven and they were going to do away and fight the saints. The image that we see everywhere is not the image of the Yahusha in the Bible. The Bible is about to prove without a shadow of doubt, with evidence according to the scriptures that the image that is being worshipped today is the image of the beast and not the true savior.

In Revelations 12:9 the Bible says that HaSatan deceived the whole world. In 2 Thessalonians 2:3 the Bible tells us to not let no man deceive us by any means. 2 Thessalonians 2:3 “Let no man deceive you by any means; for that day shall not come, except thee come a falling away first and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.”

The man of sin must be revealed. Some of you think the man of sin is Barack Obama, some thought the man of sin was George W Bush, some think the man of sin was anybody walking around with a little bit of power on the earth, but its bigger than that. You got to understand the Bible just pointed out to us in Revelations 13 that an image was going to be made. The false image in Revelations 13:8 that people were going to worship and that this image was going to allow their names not to be written in the Lamb’s book of life.

If the man of sin must be revealed, that would mean he is hiding. To reveal something, you must make what is hidden known to others. There is an old saying, “hidden in plain sight.” It is not going to be hidden somewhere where you cannot see it nor look for it. It is going to be right in front of your face, in plain sight. Why, because that is the place where most people overlook the obvious.

Let’s continue…

2 Thessalonians 2:4 “Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called Yahuah, or that is worshipped; so that he as Yahuah sitteth in the temple of Yahuah, shewing himself that he is Yahuah.” This image from Revelations 13:8 would exalteth himself above all that is called Yahuah, so that he as Yahuah sitteth in the temple of Yahuah, shewing himself as Yahuah. To be as Yahuah, means he is not Yahuah.

Did you see that? Revelation 13:8 said there was going to be an image and the people was going to think it was Yahuah and because they thought it was Yahuah. Their names will not be written in the Lamb’s book of life. Revelation 13:8 also says that all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, the image of the beast.

To identify these people who will be worshiping the image of the beast are the one who believe their names will be written in the Lamb’s book of life.

Now we just read from 2 Thessalonians 2:4 that “him” was going to opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called Yahuah, or that is worshipped. Here is the worship that is referred to in Revelations 13:8. What image is in the churches today? The image in churches today is an European depiction of HaMashiach that has been exalted above Yahuah.

Who is this man of sin, that’s showing himself he is Yahuah sitting in the temples of Yahuah that most are worshipping today and think their name is written in the Lamb’s book of life.

John 7:38 “He that believeth on me, as the scripture had said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

Do you believe on HaMashiach as the scripture had said or do you believe on the image exalted in the temples? Acts 7:48 “Howbeit the Most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands.” The Most High does not dwell in the temples (churches) that exalteth this image of HaMashiach above Yahuah. If Yahuah does not dwell in these temples made with hands, then where does He dwell? 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 “What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you; which ye have of Yahuah, and ye are not your own?” “For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify Yahuah in your body, and in your spirit, which are Yahuah’s.”

It has been passed from generation to generation that it does not matter about having an image in the churches, however the scriptures say differently. Some may say that I am interpreting the scriptures incorrectly. I would say, ok I am open minded to hear what others find according to the scriptures, not based on one’s feelings.

The image that Christopher Columbus brought to the Americas of HaMashiach was an image of Cesare Borgia. Cesare Borgia is the son of Pope Pius and his image was used to paint the image of HaMashiach during the Renaissance period. When they came to the Americas, they began to murder all those that would not bow down to the image or accept their religion.

We have been deceived and it is not our fault. It is the fault of the leaders of Rome. They worked hand in hand with the enemy. They were the ones that created the image of the beast and then gave it the power to speak. How does the image speak? It speaks in movies like “The Passion of Christ.” It speaks in your books, schools, mainstream media, television programs, churches, and in most organized religion, etc.

Paul said in 2 Thessalonians 2:5-6 “Remember ye not, that when I was yet with you, I told you these things?” “And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.”

HaSatan is being revealed in his time. I am revealing the false image of HaMashiach in his time. Why? To usher in the second coming of HaMashiach. HaMashiach has given you mercy and grace. Now is the time to come out of false religion because that image you think you following of Yahusha HaMashiach that died on the cross for you, did not die on a cross. That is why they took the Apocrypha out of the Bible. The whole history of that image and who he really is in the Apocrypha. The Roman Catholic Church told us the Apocrypha was not inspired by the Most High Yahuah. The Apocrypha is inspired and it gives warning of a false image of a man that would be set up in the temples and that man would be worshipped as if he is Yahuah but in reality, he’s just a dead man.

Now, let us go in our Bible to see what HaMashiach really look like. Daniel 10:5-6 “Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz.” “His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour of polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.” Revelations 1:14-15 “His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire.” “And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace, and his voice as the sound of many waters.”

His feet like unto fine brass as if they burned in a furnace. HaMashiach was not European nor was he Middle Eastern. The Bible gave a description. Is that the description in your heart? Is that the description in your soul? Or are you worshipping a dead man by worshipping the image of the beast. I believe there should be no image of HaMashiach as the scriptures had said, period!

Your soul is in danger if you are following the false image.

Repent, and come out of her. Some are claiming to be following HaMashiach while following HaSatan. That is how deep HaSatan’s deception gets. HaSatan desires to be worshiped. Book of Mormon, Moses 1:12,19 “And it came to pass that when Moses had said these words, behold, HaSatan came tempting me, worship me.” “And now, when Moses had said these words, HaSatan cried with a loud voice, and ranted upon the earth, and commanded, saying: I am the Only Begotten, worship me.”

John 7:38, “He that believeth on me, as the scriptures had said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

Always do your own research, do not be a follower of man or women.

Shalom
