The dragon uses Rome to impersonate the Father. The beast uses the Papacy to impersonate the Son.
The false prophet uses Protestants of/in America to impersonate the Spirit.
The Father brought forth a Son in His own image (“Being the brightness of his glory, and the express
image of his person” Hebrews 1:3). Have we seen the dragon bring forth a ‘son’ in ‘the express image
of his person’? Rome, a nation where most leaders have claimed the status of god, had given “his
power, and his seat, and great authority” (Revelation 13:2) to the Papacy.
Since the Father brought forth the Son from Himself (as exemplified in the physical illustration of Adam
and Eve, Genesis 2:21-23, or as seen from the stone that “was cut out of the mountain without hands”
Daniel 2:45, Christ was “the stone which the builders rejected” Matthew 21:42, see also AA 63.1-64.2),
we should be able to see a similarity that occurred in the dragon (Rome) bringing forth the beast (the
Papacy) from himself—even sitting on the same continent (or throne, if you will).
The Spirit has come from the Son (John 7:37-39, John 14-17, Revelation 5:6) in a different way than
the Son (the Papacy) came forth from the Father (Rome) (Micah 5:2, Proverbs 8:22-30). We should be
able to see the false prophet (America, the false spirit) brought forth from the beast (the Papacy, the
false son) (which happened through the Pilgrim fathers) as an entirely new nation on an entirely
different continent, being divested of the former continent and independent thereof (without a throne…).
It’s clear that the Father (Rome or the dragon) and Son (the Papacy or the beast) have a throne, yet
the Spirit (America or the false prophet) does not share that throne, but rather came/comes forth from
that throne (Revelation 22:1).
America (the false spirit) is divested of the personality of the Roman Papacy and independent thereof
(the false father and son) and will finally be successful in making an image to the Papacy (the false
son) before itself, just as the true Spirit will be successful in making an image in the to the Son before
itself.
The Father and the Son both have crowns (illustrated by the two crowns on the table of shewbread on
the sanctuary, Exodus 25:23-25). The Spirit has no crown. Rome and the Papacy both have crowns.
America has no crown.
So it’s clear that we have God the Father bringing forth the Son, which gave the gift of His Spirit, being
illustrated by the fraudhead of Revelation 12-13!
What’s also interesting is that the dragon is portrayed with crowns on its heads—which have always
been there as long as it has existed (Revelation 12:3). The beast (the false son) had crowns on its
horns (Revelation 13:1). Those crowns were not always on the horns, but were placed there
ceremoniously by the dragon (the false father). (See Patriarchs and Prophets, chapter 1.)
The false prophet (the false spirit) has never had crowns, as it has never had a throne.
