Does the beast rule the whole world? The gospel will be preached on the all the earth?
By Ronaldo Gomes
As we see before, the beast that John saw was the Roman Empire and the harlot was the jerusalem
of time of Jesus.
But many people thinks that the beast can’t be Rome because the revelation book says that the beast
dominate the whole world. The same way, the prostitute contaminate the whole world.
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast”
Apocalipse 13:3
wondered after the beast”
Apocalipse 13:3
“With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants
of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication”
Apocalipse 17:2
of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication”
Apocalipse 17:2
“And on her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH”.
Apocalipse 17:5
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH”.
Apocalipse 17:5
This expression (all the world/whole world/all the earth) in Greek does not appeal to the whole planet,
but to the whole world known at the time. As we can see in the onw bible:
“Therefore thus said the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from
the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land”
the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land”
When the prophets of Jerusalem profaneness whole the planet? Never.
Because the world in this text is “Aretz” in hebrew thats means land.
Because the world in this text is “Aretz” in hebrew thats means land.
In the new testament is the same thing. he use some worlds that not means the whole planet.

See? The gospel has been preached already on the whole word. I made a picture too:
And the beast, Rome, has dominated the whole world at the first century.
