Who or what is the Beast of Revelation? Is it just a code word for the Antichrist?
The Bible's metaphor of "beast" kingdoms stretches back to the prophecies of Daniel. He describes a vision of four mighty beasts that were destined to rise out of the Great Sea and conquer the world. The fourth beast, the Roman Empire, crucified our Lord Jesus Christ and set themselves against the Kingdom of Heaven, but centuries earlier God provided all the necessary hints to show His people what to expect. This handbook will guide you through the logic of the beasts, the Great Sea, and the clear connection between Daniel, Revelation, and the history of Rome. Once you understand this crucial part of the puzzle, you'll gain a new appreciation of Christianity itself.
Author Terry Wolfe has published several highly-rated books on theology and prophetic interpretation. He was raised in a Mennonite tradition and was taught to fear God rather than man, and to always question the narrative of those in power. Beginning with the groundbreaking title 'Maybe Everyone Is Wrong: Revelations, Conspiracy, and the Kingdom of Heaven', and followed up with 'Fire In The Rabbit Hole', he is celebrated for his clear, sensible, and powerful arguments that shift the discussion around controversial topics.
So what’s the big idea?
Rise of the Beast is my attempt to condense important theological arguments into the most convenient, affordable format possible for a paperback book. Most readers will be able to read the entire thing in one sitting, but I suspect that those who are most interested in the subjects of prophecy and theology will want to revisit it repeatedly. It’s designed to be very easy to reference if you want to look up the information later.
As anxiety increases around the topic of the Tribulation, the Antichrist, and other spooky events on the horizon, I feel obligated to weigh in and caution my fellow Christians to stop and rethink the entire prophecy of the “Beast” found in Revelation. For those who already know my writing on this from Maybe Everyone Is Wrong, you will have a headstart on the topic, but this book is what begins to lay out the real evidence for what I said before, not just the theory and scripture.
Thank you to everyone who supports this Substack and my books. With this book in particular, I’m already hitting the bottom limit of the price and making only a few cents on each purchase, so I’m sorry I can’t offer much in terms of discounts or special offers. However, if the Lord is willing, I will once again produce a free audiobook version in the coming months.
I am excited to read your comments, reviews, and have discussions with you about the material. Please say a prayer for the success of the book if you end up finding value in it. My hope, as always, is to challenge the unchallenged traditions and provoke the reader to think deeper about the amazing wisdom contained in the Bible.
