Beast of the Earth

The beast out of the earth is not a literal beast but it is a man that imitates the Lamb of God.  He is better known as the false prophet.  His mission is to persuade mankind to follow him and denounce the Lord God Almighty that created the heavens, earth, and the seas.

Beast of the Sea

This is not a literal beast, but it is some form of organized governing body.  It is definitely anti-god because it is blasphemous.  It has the characteristics of several different wild animals; therefore it is quite unpredictable.  His mission is to vilify God and to destroy the saints.

Four Beasts

The four beasts are four seraphim.  They are heavenly beings and they are positioned around the throne.  They are assigned duties such as making announcements and organizing events in heaven.  Their primary mission is to praise God continually.

Lamb
