The
OP just might be using the concept of 'cloning' as the explaination
of the Revelation prophecy concerning the Presence Into The World of the 'false Prophet'...
Rev 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Rev 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first
beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
It is widly recognized that the 2nd beast, aka: false prophet/anti-christ,
...is
not born of woman...but 'comes out of the Earth'...
to my mind this might be accomplished by taking out the nuclear DNA
out of a human Egg, then inserting a specialized & genitically engineered
nucleus into the Egg, a Petri Dish life would come about... then a
artificial insemmenation procedure into a human host to carry the
zygot to term. The above is using an older technology procedure...
the 'ideal' characteristics of this person-to-be might include multi-racial
traits, but without the genetic bad things such as Tay-Sachs or Sickel-Cell-Anemia .. etc, etc
(or the other +1,000 ethnic or racial maladies in the human populations)
____________________
Or, in the second place, the OP, act of 'cloning'... might have a basis in the
'creation' of an Image of the 1st beast...which is given 'Life' by the power
of the false-prophet
Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would
not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Rev 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
So, in our thought models, the Image (or re-creation) of the 1st beast,
might be a quick grown, clone or android, looking like the great leader who was slain some time before the 2nd beast gave that Image Life &
Speach.
But also the 2nd beast, who was brought up from the earth...
iow; was not divinely bestowed with a natural birth,
was him/it/her self, created by human scientists using a voted on
DNA/genetic sequence to produce a 'Ideal' person (who then goes Bad)
much like the fall of Lucifer, into Satan
*******************
Which brings us to this question; just whom is the Name/Mark/Number
representative of? the original 1st beast from the Sea?
OR, the 'Image'/ 'clone' which was given Life & Speach by the false-prophet?
OR, the 2nd beast, from out of the Land, who is properly the false-prophet
Aaka; the end-times anti-christ?
Rev 13:18
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast:
for it is the number of a man;
and his number [is] Six hundred threescore [and] six.
i don't think anything is resolved from the above, but it was engaging....
thanks,
