Has the dragon empowered the sevenheaded beast?

[Kosonen]

Please take a look at Revelation 13:2  "Now the wild beast that I saw was like a leopard, but its feet were like those of a bear, and its mouth was like a lion’s mouth. And the dragon gave to the beast its power and its throne and great authority."

Can you prove this has happened already? 

Revelation 13:5  It was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and it was given authority to act for 42 months.

Can you prove this has happened?

In reality this has not yet happened. But it has to do with a New World Order the world's top politicians are talking about.

But you might ask exactly what is that global governance. 

There is a beast that has not had legal binding power over the world. But there are talks that G20 should get that power.

G20 is according to wikipedia: "The G20 (or Group of Twenty) is an international forum for the governments and central bank governors from 19 countries and the European Union (EU)."

The latest news about that I saw yesterday:

https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20200529_04/ says:

"Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzo says the Group of 20 nations should play a leading role in helping the global economy quickly recover from the coronavirus pandemic."

And surprisingly already since 2017 within G20 there has been a preparation for a such global authority to set up a new worldwide financial system. Here is the source:

https://www.globalfinancialgovernance.org/report-of-the-g20-epg-on-gfg/foreword/

"We were asked by the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors in April 2017 to recommend reforms to the global financial architecture and governance of the system of International Financial Institutions (IFIs), so as to promote economic stability and sustainable growth in a new global era; and to consider how the G20 could better provide continued leadership and support for these goals."

"The present system lacks the coherence, joint capacity and effectiveness to support its most fundamental goals in global development and financial stability. It must be brought up to date with the realities of a new era.

We can achieve this by implementing decisive reforms to make the system work as a system. These reforms are within our reach."

Under the header:  "D. The G20 and the IFIs: Making the System Work as a System" it reads:

https://www.globalfinancialgovernance.org/report-of-the-g20-epg-on-gfg/overview/

"It will require dedicated steering over three years to move to this new landscape, building on current initiatives in the IFIs. A clear system of metrics to track impact and value for money should be established, which will also ensure continuity of the reforms beyond that period"

In the magazine Financial Times March 25, 2020  Gordon Brown, a former UK prime minister straight forward states that he wants the G20 to create that international authority.

The article is also found in the link below:

Gordon Brown writes:

"Lastly, the G20 should tomorrow form a task force to co-ordinate the work of political leaders, medical experts and the heads of international institutions."

Today's economic disaster caused by the lockdowns in almost every country because of Covid-19 paves the way for the empowerment of a new global authority based on G20.

I believe this will constitute the sevenheaded beast mentioned in Revelation 13.

So how was the League of Nations and the United Nations formed in 1919 and 1945 respectively, if this scripture was not already fulfilled? And what about the scarlet coloured wild beast which mimics the 7-headed 10-horn wild beast? Think again.  We already said that was the United Nations copying in its formation the former beast whose death-stroke was healed.

 

Pretty illustrations and an attempt at fresh thinking, but you can't reinvent the wheel.  You have to go back to basics and come again.

You cannot prove anything with regard to the faith. Otherwise, it would not be called faith. What you can do is demonstrate that this or that view is reasonable.

Faith is a matter of the heart, supplemented by the head. It is not a matter of the head supplemented by the heart.

Dear sister, but think again. Is the WT's explanation really true?

JW Online Library says about Revelation 13:5

^{https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1101988028#h=18:0-24:817}

"The 42 months mentioned here appear to be the same as the three and a half years during which the holy ones are harassed by a horn arising from one of the beasts in Daniel’s prophecy. (Daniel 7:23-25; see also Revelation 11:1-4.) Thus, from the end of 1914 on into 1918, while the warring nations were literally tearing at one another like wild beasts, citizens of those nations were pressured to worship the wild beast, to indulge in the religion of nationalism, even to be ready to die for their country." (End of quote)

Unfortunately the prophecied things in Revelation 13 are much more dire and extreme than what happened to the WT organization during 1914-1918. So it can not be the fulfillment prophecied in Revelation 13.

Because the WT organization was not conquered or paralized during 1914-1918. 8 leading brothers were sent to prision, but other brothers took charge of the WT organization and continued printing WT and delivering to subscribers.

Worship of the state was not at all at the level as predicted in Revelation 13. And the mark of the beast is a litteral thing without which it is stated in Revelation 13 that nobody will be able to buy anything. We have not either yet seen anything like that.

And the image of the beast has neither appeared. UN does not fit the description, because it does not cause any death to anyone refusing to worship it.

It is all future things. 

But what is serious is that we will soon face all this. 

But Revelation 12 presents the escape talking about the "woman" that flees to a place in a wilderness.

Interesting thoughts.  We all have to wait and see. But we have to keep working and watching. Don't be carried away by one sign.  Keep studying the signs Jesus gave us. He is not going to add anymore.  All will be fulfilled.

In reality this has not yet happened. But it has to do with a New World Order the world's top politicians are talking about.

"Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation."  Rev 13:6,7

The proof of this happening is the GB giving power to the elder body, to have full authority over the "saints"/anointed in the organization - the Beast.   This war is spiritual, not physical, and based on deceit.   2 Cor 10:4,5; 1 Pet 5:8,9; Rev 13:14-17
