The False Prophet
Revelation 13:11-18 & 14:6-7
• (11) Then I saw another beast coming up out of
the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he
spoke as a dragon. (12) He exercises all the
authority of the first beast in his presence. And he
makes the earth and those who dwell in it to
worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was
healed.

his servants also disguise themselves as servants
of righteousness, whose end will be according to
their deeds.

• 1 John 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but
test the spirits to see whether they are from
God, because many false prophets have gone out
into the world.
• (13) He performs great signs, so that he even
makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth
in the presence of men. (14) And he deceives
those who dwell on the earth because of the signs
which it was given him to perform in the presence
of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth
to make an image to the beast who *had the
wound of the sword and has come to life.

his fifty.

them, fire flows out of their mouth and devours
their enemies; so if anyone wants to harm
them, he must be killed in this way.
• (15) And it was given to him to give breath to the
image of the beast, so that the image of the beast
would even speak and cause as many as do not
worship the image of the beast to be killed.
• (16) And he causes all, the small and the
great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men
and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right
hand or on their forehead, (17) and he provides
that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except
the one who has the mark, either the name of the
beast or the number of his name.
• (18) Here is wisdom. Let him who has
understanding calculate the number of the
beast, for the number is that of a man; and his
number is six hundred and sixty-six.

• (14:6) And I saw another angel flying in
midheaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to
those who live on the earth, and to every nation
and tribe and tongue and people; (7) and he said
with a loud voice, "Fear God, and give Him glory,
because the hour of His judgment has come;
worship Him who made the heaven and the earth
and sea and springs of waters."

• Romans 1:21 For even though they knew God, they
did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they
became futile in their speculations, and their
foolish heart was darkened.
• Romans 1:18-20 For the wrath of God is revealed

made it evident to them. (20) For since the
creation of the world His invisible attributes, His
eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly
seen, being understood through what has been
made, so that they are without excuse.
