Who is the Beast?

In the prophetic books of Daniel and Revelation, the Bible gives us a description of the Beast by tracing its operation throughout history . This beast blasphemes God, thinks to change the Law of God, persecutes the saints of the Most High, had dominion over the consciences of men for 1260 years and is given his authority by Satan. You need to know who this beast is. In fact, you are warned, by God, against worshipping the Beast( Revelation 14:9,10).
