This is part of a series of messages from the book of Revelation.
Discussion starter questions:
1) What have you heard before about the mark of the beast and the number of the beast?
2) What does Revelation mean by the two beasts?
3) Is it possible to receive the mark of the beast by accident?
4) Twice we are told that this calls for “patient endurance” (13:10, 14:12). Why is that so important for God's people?

Lyrics (public domain):
1. Immortal honors rest on Jesus’ head;
My God, my portion, and my living bread;
In Him I live, upon Him cast my care;
He saves from death, destruction, and despair.
2. He is my refuge in each deep distress;
The Lord my strength and glorious righteousness;
Through floods and flames He leads me safely on,
And daily makes His sovereign goodness known.
3. My every need He richly will supply;
Nor will His mercy ever let me die;
In Him there dwells a treasure all divine,
And matchless grace has made that treasure mine.
4. O that my soul could love and praise Him more,
His beauties trace, His majesty adore;
Live near His heart, upon His bosom lean;
Obey His voice, and all His will esteem.

2) Consider the symbolic descriptions of Satan given in Revelation 12. How many can you find. What can we say about his character from each one?
3) What is Satan’s attitude towards you today? v12,13,17.
4) How can we fight him? (v11, plus James 4:7, Romans 12:9)
