READ: Revelation 13:1-12

“Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth…” – Revelation 13:11, NASB

The Greek word allos means “another of the same kind”. This word is used to describe something or someone who is different but similar. A son must become an allos because it will help him to recognize the principle of allos in many other areas of ministry.

When you understand the principle of allos you understand that it is at work in many areas of life and ministry. Just as you are another of the same kind, you will recognize that many things are just one of a kind.

Dear friend, there is nothing special about you. There is nothing special about the problems you encounter in ministry. Someone has experienced it before and you are just the next one to discover it.

In the book of Revelation, John saw a terrible beast (problem) rising out of the sea. He was amazed at the strange and frightening appearance of this beast: Revelation 13:1-2.

But this was not the end. He suddenly saw an allos! Another of the same kind! The Scripture describes how he saw another beast of the same kind emerging from beneath the ocean.

“And I beheld another (allos) beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon” (Revelation 13:11).

It is important to recognize problems of a similar nature when they arise. This will help you to calmly deal with the problems.
