The Great Seal

 

"Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the 7th day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the 7th day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the 7th day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made." –Genesis 2:1-3 

The seal of the president of the United States is used to mark correspondence from the president of the United States to the U.S. Congress, and is also used as a symbol of the presidency itself. The central design, based on the Great Seal of the United States first adopted by the U.S. Congress on June 20, 1782, is the official coat of arms of the U.S. presidency and also appears on the presidential flag.   

A king’s seal is like a signature, password, and stamp of authority all in one—authenticating royal documents and protecting them from tampering. Historically, a king’s seal served as a symbol of the monarch's sovereign authority.

We will now continue our study of Revelation by examining how the Bible tells us Rome will regain world-wide supremacy with the help of America and use that power to force the world to worship and serve her.

The Mark of the Beast Part 2: The Lamb Like Beast of Revelation 13

In the first part of this series on the mark of the beast we identified the first beast of Revelation 13, the beast that rises up from out of the sea, as the Papacy. The Papacy is the only power that fits all the characteristics described in Revelation 13 perfectly. The Papacy is also the same power that is described in Daniel 7. Let us now examine and identify the second beast of Revelation 13.
