The Beast from the sea? What nonsense.
Its not even a man or human. Its described as a set of 17 basileis or sovereigns. Seven of which Babylon sits upon and ten which rule after they destroy Babylon.

But the kingdom of the beast arises around the Mediterranian Sea. The Middle East and northern Africa.
I'll say this again, hopefull it'll sink in, the antichrist will carry all three of these title: The Assyrian, the King of Babylon, the Prince of Tyre. He will be a Muslim. They are going to call him the Mahadi.

I recently rented the latest Charlie Manson movie from Blockbuster, which actually focused on Leslie Van Houten and one young juror in the trial, and his family and family life...
...Brilliantly done you could never really tell who was more murderously frightening, the family and social circle of the Christian family who extolled the son to heed that God wants us to kill the commie gooks in Vietnam and decent Christian Americans really want to do just that...
...When it comes to the religious they sure have been programmed to rigidly believe in some strange notions and things based on their love of God....
Not only are these people too much, they absolutely believe that they are right and everyone else is wrong. Closed looped circuits of the most dangerous kind.

You really want the Antichrist to be muslim, don't you ?
It seems like you're rejecting any arguments that do no fit your interpretation of what the beast should be even while they seem quite reasonnable and clear.

And? It says revived Roman Empire, that would be the Ottomans, the muslims. It's coming back as the final beast. Remember, the beast wants to destoy Israel of the map. Read Psalm 83, that tells you the nations.

How do you come to that? Rome is in Italy. The Roman empire began in the Italian peninsula. Technically it has never completely fallen. The office of Pontifex Maximus and its Curia still sit in Italy, you know them as the Papacy.
Psalm 83 is prayer not a prophecy about the endtimes.
Psalm 83 appears to describe an ongoing conflict between Israel and the Arabs that will climax in a final war in which Israel will win a decisive victory over the Arabs. Psalm 83 is a prayer in which Israel asked the Lord for deliverance from a group of nations that verses 3-5 show are united in a confederacy or league for one purpose — the destruction of the nation of Israel. In the 1950s the Arab League of Nations was actually formed. It united the Arab nations together for the very purpose of the destruction of Israel. Verse 6 mentions some of these nations. Bible scholars and historians agree that ancient Israel was never confronted by such an elaborate alliance of nations, namely, Ishmaelites, Edom, Ammon, Amalek, Hagarenes, Gebal and the Philistines. Therefore, this prophecy must have an end-time fulfillment.
These Old Testament territories are in modern times the nations of Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Syria. Obviously the Philistines represent the Palestinians. Edom, Moab, and Ammon occupied what is the modern state of Jordan. Gebal is Lebanon (Joshua 13:5,6.) Iraq was populated by the Hagarenes or Hagarites that dwelt east of Gilead in the wilderness of the River Euphrates (1 Chronicles 5:1,9,10.) The Ishmaelites settled what is today Saudi Arabia and Ishmael’s eldest son, Nabajoth, is identified with Syria.
Lebanon (Gebal) and Tyre play a prominent role in Psalm 83. Hezbollah is headquartered in Tyre which has been heavily attacked by Israel’s army in this current war. Back in the 1970s the PLO had 6,000 Palestinian terrorists in southern Lebanon creating havoc in Galilee, northern Israel. Thousands more Palestinians were amassed in the environs of Tyre where Arafat was headquartered.
Even if it were, Turks are not from the Middle East. They are from Siberia. How do you think they got there? They came with the Mongols. The Mongol Empire was an alliance of Turkish and Mongol tribes united under Genghis Khan.
To add, the Ottoman Empire is not the Byzantine Empire. They are two completely different entities.
So add a Biblical geography course at a local seminary as well.
