What if the ‘mark of the beast’ is the rejection of the holy Sabbath as one denomination claims (Ezekiel 20:2)? What if taking the ‘mark of the beast’ requires eating ‘unclean’ animals (Isaiah 66:15-18)? What if taking the ‘mark of the beast’ means death for keeping Adonai’s ‘appointed times’ (Daniel 7:25). How does someone suddenly start obeying Torah when faced with death? Being a holy one, a saint, is defined as one who has a testimony of Yeshua and keeps the commandments of Adonai. Obeying Torah because of faith in Yeshua strengthens the holy ones, the saints, to stand when faced with persecution and death.

Revelation Chapter 19 – A Wedding and a War
The rider on this white horse is the same rider from Revelation chapter 6 that went out to conquest the nations (Zechariah 14:3). When the Conqueror left, he wore one crown; when he returns, he has many crowns. The rider on the white horse is the Lion of Y’hudah, the Warrior King returning wearing the royal crowns from conquering the nations’ kings. His eyes burn like fiery flames; he wears a robe soaked in blood. The blood is not Yeshua’s blood; it is the blood of the enemies of Adonai.
Revelation Chapter 18 – The Fall of Babylon
Babylon has become the ‘bride of the Adversry,’ the dwelling place for demons, a prison for ‘unclean’ spirits.’ Demons are evil spirits that are associated with the occult. Evil spirits can be divined through witchcraft and channeling and will appear as people we once knew. This is known as a ‘familiar spirit’ and many people embrace these spirits as the ‘return of a loved one.’ In reality, they are demons taking physical or emotional shape leading their prey away from the Truth of God’s Word: “it is appointed for a man to die once and then face judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).
Revelation Chapter 17 – The Whore and The Beast
In this interlude of Tribulation events, Yochanan is shown more details about the ‘great whore’ and ‘the beast’ from Revelation 13. The Hebrew word for ‘whore’ is zanah and means to ‘commit adultery.’ This ‘whore’ or ‘adulteress’ is a spiritual adulteress. She is a harlot who has chosen to forsake the Creator, the God of Isra’el, and submit to false gods. Her global harlotry includes kings and people from every nation, tribe, and tongue.
