Revelation 13:3-5, part 2, the ideology of the Beast

 

We might think of, instead of the Baptist fundamentalist view of the Beast as being a Pope, the Beast as being a Communist dictator like Stalin or Mao. Globalism as it is currently expressed is communism writ worldwide with entities like the World Economic Forum saying that we will one day not own private property, which is the ultimate goal of Communism as expressed by Marx. Communism is a modern form of Gnosticism, which John himself condemns in his first letter. The ancient Gnostics believed that the God of the Old Testament was actually Satan and that all matter was evil, therefore Christ having a body was an illusion. Gnosticism then denies the incarnation which, as I have explained in other commentaries, is what the phrase the Son of God (uppercase S) is all about as well as denying that Christ had material flesh.

Gnostics eventually elevate mankind to the status of god and modern Gnostics, Communists, even deny the God of the Bible’s very existence and substitute the human for Him. Communism, Socialism, and Marxism as practiced by Lenin, Stalin, and Mao and others are a derivation of the modern Gnostic heresy with Hitler’s National Socialism simply being a weaker sister. Communism is behind the functioning of our modern political and academic institutions and is spreading its tendrils around the world to begin with a de facto one world government with countries being only administrative entities. Like the communist subversive group, Antifa, in America is only in need of a strong leader to be like the National Socialists (Nazis) of Germany, the worldwide communist effort is only in need of a Stalin or a Mao.

I recommend reading James Billington’s history of modern communist theory entitled Fire in the Minds of Men.

Another thing to consider is Islamic Marxism since Iran’s revolution in 1979 as expressed in third world liberation ideology today with shouts of “Free Palestine” and, “from the river to the sea,” being thinly disguised attacks on Western Civilization, Christianity, and Capitalism using Israel as an entry. The thing is that the West must participate in its own murder for this to be successful. It is very interesting to think about, no matter what the truth turns out to be.
