85. The Second Beast of Revelation

The second beast of Revelation 13 was a powerful witness to the legitimacy of the first beast.  We believe the second beast was the anit-Roman priests who took and retained control of the temple months before Vespasian was dispatched to put down the rebellion in Judea.  In these videos, we are seeking to strip away the false assumptions and unbiblical “traditions of men” that hinder understanding the nature of “the Day of the Lord” or “the second coming,” as it is commonly called.  The meaning of this event is obscured by futuristic assumptions and must be comprehended using a sound, contextual hermeneutic, allowing scripture to interpret scripture.   We are espousing “fulfilled eschatology”. 

Note: Preterist Papers #36, #37, #38, #39, #40, #41, #42 pertain to the zealot beast.
