A Beast That Was Not
A beast that is yet to come. From a Christian point of view, the Roman Empire was a beast until Constantine made the world safe for them. It wasn’t long before a different kind of beast came along to take peace from the world. Islam with ten dynasties. A beast that was diverse from all the others.

A Translation Problem
A beast is an it according to Daniel and Daniel knows beasts. Some of the translators didn’t get it right. Somehow its horns became his horns. Somehow they all agreed “it had ten horns”. This is not a small matter. A person cannot have ten horns. Only a beast. Some translators were not inspired. You have to love BibleGateway.
A Common Beast
A second beast of the Apocalypse. John knows Daniel knows beasts. The beast which he saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion. The “ten horns” also ties them together. Numbers tie history to the fulfillment of prophecy.

A Mystery Of The Woman
A beast with seven heads and ten horns. The tenth dynasty of Islam ended the thousand year reign of Constantinople. The fifth dynasty of the Roman Empire started it. It can be found no more at all. You can’t go back to Constantinople. You can go back and count dynasties instead of kings. That is a job for historians. Watch for numbers in history. The mystery.
A Connection Of Dots
A number of boxes to check. Ten horns, seven heads, two beasts, a bottomless pit, etc. They can all be connected. Daniel can help us identify the beasts. Chapter 17 has many waters and seven hills, Chapter 18 has many merchants and a great city that has fallen and can be found no more at all. With Constantinople we can check all the boxes and connect the dots.
A Dynasty
A horn will make war with the saints and take peace from the earth. The Umayyad dynasty, the second dynasty of Islam, attacked Constantinople three times. The Ottoman dynasty, the tenth dynasty of Islam, also attacked three times and ended the thousand years when the saints reigned with Christ. Only history can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy.

A Reign of Christ Not Found In The Bible
A misinterpretation. They reigned with Christ a thousand years can be found. The “reign of Christ” can be found on the internet but not in the bible. The Byzantine Empire where they reigned with Christ a thousand years can be found. Ten horns and seven heads can also be found along with a perfect fit for Babylon the Great. Constantinople.
A Prophecy Fulfilled in History
A number to connect them. Bible translators agree on numbers and to some extent so do historians. Historical events can be connected to prophecy with numbers and colors. Start with a big number like a thousand and see if the other numbers like 666, ten, seven, etc. fit. There is only one Christian empire that lasted a thousand years where they reigned with Christ.
A Dynasty
A connection with Daniel. The ten horns tie the fourth beast of Daniel to the second beast of the Apocalypse. The horns are dynasties and they are named by Islam. They can be connected by two big numbers. A thousand years and the year 666. The seven heads can also be connected with the seven dynasties of Rome.
