th water as a flood after the woman and went to make war with her . . . to devour her." -- Revelation 12:15-17 and 12:4. The Endtime Beast is a system of law borrowed from the law of the sea implemented inland so that the "ecclesia" (the remnant) are forced into earnest demonstration. This system of law is patterned after the maritime trust that transfers the commercial interests of the people, called "suretyship," to alien strangers wherein commerce knows no bounds and is typified by a flood. The woman is non other than the real true bona fide seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob -- their progeny of today.
