Chapter 13 of Revelation, the final book of the Bible’s New Testament, introduces us to a beast that emerges from the sea. His features and attributes make him terrifying to behold, but—and this is key—this beast is not the “top dog.” Instead, this beast worships the dragon to receive its power and authority.
What does this beast represent? Why is this beast subservient to the dragon? How is this information helpful for a follower of Christ? Worship with us as Pastor Erwin Nansi continues our three-part sermon series, “The Dragon and His Beasts,” with a message titled “Christ or Antichrist?”
If you’ve struggled to make sense of the imagery in the last book of the Bible or could use another look at these important prophetic elements, this message is for you!
