Sarko is the Beast Coming Out of the Sea (Revelation 13:1)

In Revelation 13:1 according to the King James version, "And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy."

Now most people read this and go what the crud is this guy talking about. Let me try to do my best to interpret whats going on in this mysterious passage. The author sees a vision of the anti-christ and he calls him the beast. The best is coming out of the sea which in bible times that means one thing, the Mediteranian Sea. Now the seven heads and ten horns refers that this beast has control over all the kings of these countries that surround the sea. The last time that was the case was when Alexander the Great conquered the countries surrounding the sea and created what we know as the Roman Empire. The author is essentially saying that all the kings will give control to this one central figure for complete control.

Now what does that have to do with Sarko lips. Well Sarko has done just that through his amazing creation called the Union of the Mediteranian. Now according to wikipedia, “Mediterranean Union is a community established on the 13 July 2008 by French President Nicolas Sarkozy, as a development of the Euromediterranean Partnership. The act unites all EU members with several non-EU countries that border the Mediterranean Sea.

This is a picture of the Roman Empire when Alexander the Great ruled the Roman Empire.

This next picture resembles what the Union of the Mediteranian looks like today.

Wikipedia states that "despite the potential division it could cause to the Muslim world, with part being united with Europe, and part separated, President Sarkozy sees the initiative as a way of promoting peace between Israel and its Arab neighbours. It is hoped that an institutional core will be established by the end of the French presidency of the European Union in 2008."

Sarko lips wants the peace treay or the covenant with Israel that is suppose to set in motion the starting point of the 7 years of tribulation and how long does he think this will take. Well he believes that it should happen sometime soon.

If the anti-christ will be able to set up peace for Israel then the third temple will be built and that is where he will reign. Sarko looks like he is saving the world with the current financial crisis and he is also bringing together the arabs and the jews. The anti-christ is suppose to be a world uniter and this Sarko guy is fitting the bill.

Tim Lahaye the author of the Left Behind best seller series, he believes that this passage refers to him as being a roman gentile. This fits the criteria of Sarko because he refers himself as being a french catholic. But according to Lahaye the anti-christ in the Bible will appear as a gentile, but his true beliefs will be atheist. I am not enough of an insider to know what Sarko lips true beliefs are, but I know that France was apart of the Roman empire and he was born in France, which by default makes him Roman.

So what does this information mean to you as readers. Well I hope it sets in motion a look at where you are and how your relationship with Jesus Christ is right now. My advice would be to get your heart right before God and declare Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. See I might be right or I might be wrong. But what I do know is that this has affected how I see life. The world may end soon or it might reign for 1000 more years, but I am not sure when my time is up, so I need to do what God has called me to do. I need to try my best to love those who are less fortunate and praise God for the little miracles that happen every day. My hope is not to install fear of Sarko lips, but to install the fear of God because that is what King Soloman says is the begining of wisdom and life. I love the fact that I serve a God who is bigger than the current financial crisis and under his wing I will be blessed. I have always been amazed on how being under his covering has alway steered me into the direction that he wants me to go because I have asked him to direct my path. Don't be scared of Sarko or any other anti-christ figure because the only thing should matter is your maker and your relationship with him.
