  • MAURICE H STATON on Revelation 6 - 3 years ago
    1 Chronicles 1--16. In this account it speaks of "beast"

    What or who are the beast? Who are these beast?
  • Chris - In Reply on Revelation 6 - 3 years ago
    Are you referring to the mentioning of 'beasts' in the Book of Revelation?

    If so, we start to read about these 'beasts', otherwise translated from the Greek, as living creatures, in Revelation chapter 4:6. You can read about their description from that verse onwards, but they seem to be located in "the midst & round about the Throne of God", signifying a very real part of the Presence & Holiness of God. Of course, the Apostle John could not see God, as no human can do, so all these visions that John received, were to show him something of the beings & activity in Heaven - and that all there, are in constant worship of the One Who lives eternally & to fulfil His Plans for the World. These 'beasts' are not angels & they are also distinct from the other beings that are in Heaven & that surround the Throne of God.
