Identity of the BEAST: Wore out the Saints Then - and Will Again

This Little Horn Power Wore Out The Saints During the Persecutions

of the Dark Ages, Counter Reformation and Inquisitions - The 1260 days (years).
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, ... and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
Daniel 7:25

Q: What was this Beast entity doing BEFORE it's Deadly Wound of 1798?
A: Same as the Little Horn, because it is one and the same entity
stretching down through history. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
Revelation 13:7

--This entity will do it again as the Beast of Revelation.
...and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Revelation 13:15
