Revelation 13 and the Beast

CLV Re 13:1 And it [the dragon of Rev 12] was standing on the sand of the sea [the sand of the sea was the loosely knit group of bible researchers who Russell studied with (Millerist Adventists) during the time that they jointly edited a religious journal titled “Herald of the Morning” – this is how all true and even many false religions start out]. And I perceived a wild beast ascending out of the sea [the “wild beast” is what the church itself becomes – it is the organizational structure within that causes it to become such - in this case it was the systematic corruption of the Watchtower Society which is a collective name for the corporations used by the JW's to represent them in administrative matters – although starting during Russell’s watch, it had not yet received its power and authority from the dragon - both the beasts of FDS1 and FDS3 rose up out of the sea of mankind who for the most part had left corrupted religions or were in no religion at all], having ten horns [these horns are Saints who become an integral part of the WT Society] and seven heads [the seven church presidents who are the heads of the church - Russell, Rutherford, Knorr, Franz, Henschel, Ritchie, and one we don’t know for sure (Laodicean Messenger)], and on its horns ten diadems (crowns) [since these horns have diadems they must have been sanctified members of the church], and on its heads blasphemous names [these blaspheme their “names” (which is Jesus’ name) by being yoked to the beast].

CLV Re 13:2 And the wild beast which I perceived was like a leopardess [Early Christians considered the leopard symbolic of the offspring of unlawful or unwholesome intercourse which would fit this symbolism of a wild beast with regard to the church – it is the result of the anointed ones sharing a bed with the corporate structure of the church in secular affairs and eventually being influenced by the dragon in this relationship], and its feet were as a bear's [“feet” representing the latter part of the churches timeline – “bears feet” are large and have powerful claws used for ripping up roots and tearing into trees - this may be symbolic for its ability to tear into the hearts of those who are deeply rooted in faith], and its mouth as the mouth of a lion [the lion is the king of beasts and his mouth speaks with authority in the church “as” the mouth means it is not the mouth of the lion of Judah but a different lion, one that preys on others and devours them]. And the dragon [Satan through his corrupting global powers] gives it [the beast] its power and its throne [the power to give and take life while sitting in the "seat of Moses" – which is the pharisaical powers they used to keep people in bondage with threats of disfellowship for insubordination to its will] and great authority [this “great” meaning authority over God’s true people].

CLV Re 13:3 And I perceived one out of its [the church’s] heads [not specifying which one] as if it had been slain into death [during the reign of Nathan Knorr the leadership structure of Jehovah's Witnesses was reorganized as the governing body was expanded (by Franz actually) and on January 1, 1976 (24Tebeth1975 – despite Franz protesting of this action), the power of the presidency was passed to the "Governing Body" of Jehovah's Witnesses – they also established six committees to oversee tasks such as writing, teaching, publishing and evangelizing work - this was the death stroke to the "head' of the church – Henschel was basically a “figurehead” during the bulk of his entire reign], and its death blow was cured [in 2000 under Henschel once again major organizational changes took place, as the "Governing Body" of Jehovah's Witnesses was separated from the Watchtower Society's board of directors. As a result, the members of the Governing Body stepped down from their capacities in the Watchtower society effectively giving headship back to the presidency of the church (see WT history], and the whole earth [all the JW administrations world wide] marvels after the wild beast [all of the members of the church are wondering what the hell is going on with the leadership of their church!].

CLV Re 13:4 And they [the “whole earth”] worship the dragon, because it gives authority to the wild beast [this worship of the dragon is by proxy since they willfully accept what the wild beast is telling them despite the known corruption and teachings that are contrary to the Christ’s]. And they worship the wild beast [the WT as they are drunk with the wine of her fornication], saying, "Who is like the wild beast [who else can claim to be the true church of God]?" and "Who is able to battle with it [who dares to question its authority and where it gets its power for doing so will be certain death by disfellowshipping – this is also a binary question meaning there will be another “who is like the wild beast” and “who is able to do battle with it”!]?"

CLV Re 13:5 And to it [the corrupted church administration – the WT] was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies. And to it was given authority to do what it wills forty-two months [this 42 months coincides with the witnessing in sackcloth of the two witnesses of Rev 11 (Philadelphia and Laodicea) – during this time it increases its grip of bondage on its members and takes away their straw].

CLV Re 13:6 And it opens its mouth in blasphemies toward God [Jehovah], to blaspheme His [Jesus’] name and His [earthly] tabernacle [the 2NC Saints under Gordon], and those tabernacling in heaven. [the 1NC Saints – all of these blasphemies come from rejecting Jesus message of the coming Kingdom through FDS4]

CLV Re 13:7 And to it [the corrupted church under WSS2/GNS2] was given to do battle with the saints and to conquer them [this has already occurred as both the 1NC Res and 2NC Saints in the JW’s are judicially dead right now since they are unclean (defiled) in the flesh they have been conquered from a judicial standpoint]. And authority was given to it over every tribe and people and language and nation (the same of Rev 11:9).

CLV Re 13:8 And all who are dwelling on the earth [the administrations of the JW's under the payroll of the organization] will be worshiping it, everyone whose name is not written in the scroll of life [so these are non sanctified members of the church who worship the beast due to the power and status they get from it – only those in the JAC are written in the scroll of life] of the Lambkin [Jesus] slain from the disruption of the world [though His vow of the ARC].

CLV Re 13:9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

CLV Re 13:10 If anyone is for captivity [accepts this kind of abusive behavior], into captivity he is going [these will go to Gehenna]. If anyone will be killing with the sword [disfellowshipping others unjustly using false interpretations of the scriptures], he must with the sword [the true Word of God] be killed [a soul for a soul so they too will go to Gehenna]. Here is the endurance and faith of the saints [so this warning applies to all of those in the JAC who should examine all things].

CLV Re 13:11 And I perceived another wild beast ascending out of the land [not the "sea", the land is the church of the Jehovah's Witnesses so this second beast rises up out of it – In the year 2000 three new corporations were set up to run the societies US operations – this is one of the reasons Henschel stepped down], and it had two horns [no mention of heads this is a headless beast which began when Don Adams took over – the sixth true head is Gordon who is now in FDS4] like a lambkin's [the first horn who is represented by Don Adams is more lamblike in that he started out under Nathan Knorr while directing the world missionary activities of which his siblings partook of and he has also shunned the limelight in a humbled way – however he is the chief legal officer of the new corporate structure so this is not a real lamb but a counterfeit – a non anointed horn that came up another way], and it spoke as a dragon [the second horn is Max Larson, president of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York Inc. who drives the religious engine as a corporation instead of a church – he is the real voice of the church from a secular standpoint].

It is important to note here that since Henschel stepped down, there has not been a real “head” in the JW’s in fact here is a quote from their chief spokesman James Pellechia:

Why the changes? "For both theological and practical reasons," Pellechia said. Previously, starting with founder (and first president) Charles Taze Russell, the Watchtower Society was led by the man at the top. But, in recent years, presidents have kept a fairly low profile. "I don't believe Witnesses look to any one person now as their leader,"

CLV Re 13:12 And it [this new organizational structure (beast)] is exercising all the authority of the first wild beast [this newly organized group of corporations under the horns of Adams and Larson do exercise such authority over God’s people], and making the earth [all of the JW’s globally] and those dwelling in it [those on the payroll of the JW’s] to be worshiping the first wild beast [the WTGB (the “so called” FDS)], whose death blow was cured.

CLV Re 13:13 And it [this new beast] is doing great signs [showing through their version of biblical interpretations], that it may be making fire [heavenly judgment against all of those not worshipping the WT], descend out of heaven [the mountain of the WT where they claim the faithful discrete slave is] into the earth [the global JW organization] in the sight of mankind [all of the JW’s worldwide – these signs descend via publications, lectures, conventions etc. - telling them that anyone who is not a JW will go to Gehenna and be switched off – their fire!].

CLV Re 13:14 And it [this second wild beast] is deceiving those dwelling on the earth [all of those on the payroll] because of the signs which were given it [by the false prophet See Note 1 - the so called “faithful slave” (GNS)] to do in the sight of the wild beast, saying to those dwelling on the earth to make an image to the [first] wild beast which has the blow of the sword and lives. See note 2

Note 1: CLV Re 19:20 And the wild beast [the second] is seized, and with it the false prophet [the non-anointed “faithful slave” (GNS)] who does the signs in its sight [in Rev 13:14], by which he deceives those getting the emblem of the wild beast [partaking of the defiled festivals (love feasts)], and those worshiping its image [through this idolatry]. Living, the two were cast into the lake of fire burning with sulphur [they will certainly go to Gehenna – “living” because they were not truly anointed into the JAC and so could not be considered judicially dead at the time]

Note 2: The “image” of the wild beast is 10 horns comprised of 2NC Saints (as opposed to 1NC Saints of the first wild beast) in the WTBTS.  These are the ten kings who have not attained a kingdom as yet in Rev 17.

CLV Re 13:15 And it was given to it [the two horned beast] to give spirit to the image of the wild beast [this new 2NC based GB], that the image of the wild beast should be speaking also [these are given a voice in the direction of the church], and should be causing that whosoever should not be worshiping the image of the wild beast may be killed [so these are even more ruthless than the beasts before it with regard to loyalty and worship for this generation is even more wicked than the first as they purge anyone whom tries to stand against it].

CLV Re 13:16 And it is causing all, the small (few in number) [the 1NC Reserves?] and the great [the 2NC Kings – both of these groups belong to the JAC], and the rich and the poor [those in the 1AC with varying levels of faith], and the free and the slaves [those who are sons of the ICC and slaves of the WT], that they may be giving them an emblem on their right hand, or on their forehead [through the idolatrous festivals],

CLV Re 13:17 and that no anyone may be able to buy or sell except the one having the emblem of the wild beast [if you do accept the authority of the WT you are ostracized by the church – this church is a corporation and they control all aspects of land purchases, construction, stocks, bonds, money markets, etc..], or its name [it’s name is death], or the number of its name [the length of time this beast has been in control see Rev 13:18].

CLV Re 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has a mind calculate the number of the wild beast [this number begins during when the beast under the dragons authority accomplished its primary goal], for it is the number of mankind [“mankind” represents the JW”s at large], and its number is six hundred sixty-six [666 months from 1 January 1954 (22Tebbeth1953), when the WT Bible and Tract Society stopped people from worshipping Jesus until 16 July 2009 (22Sivan2009 - new calendar) when it goes off into destruction – it would seem that the JW’s were infiltrated by “Jewish” Zionism in the 50’s -  I tried 616 but it didn’t fit anything I know of!].

CLV Re 14:1 And I perceived, and lo! the Lambkin [since it says Lambkin we can use it in this presence to represent Gordon in this thread] standing on mount Zion [when it is raised up], and with It a hundred forty-four thousand [2NC Saints], having Its [the Lambkins (Gordon’s)] name [by covenant and marriage] and Its Father's name [Jesus] written on their foreheads [because we have not defiled our names!].
