Jack tricks the tribe into believing about the beast to justify the death of Simon and to justify killing Piggy and wanting to kill Ralph. They believe that it hides inside people and wants to murder them all or trick them into doing bad things. The beast is the symbol for fear in this allegorical story.
Jack instructs the boys... "He came --- disguised. He may come again even though we gave him the head of our kill to eat. So watch; and be careful." When Stanley raises the question of whether they had or hadn't already killed the beast Jack replies... "No! How could we -- kill -- it?" So by inference Jack has endowed the "beast" with the powers to both transform its appearance and also to be invulnerable.
Jack's answer to questions about the beast is to say that, "if there is a beast we will hunt it and kill it." Ralph keeps insisting, "but there is no beast!"
they went after the beast but jack decide to forget the beast and play rolling rock

Kill it.
by killing people and giving them to the beast "sacrafice"
Jack says they will leave the head of a sow for the beast as an offering in Chapter 8. He believes it will appease the beast and prevent it from attacking the boys.
Jack's denial that they killed the beast reveal about him that beast still exists. His plan that they keep on the "right side of the beast" suggest that people frequent make offerings to satisfy the beast. I think Jack truly believe there's a beast because he had seen it on the mountain top. His continuing to promote the existence of the beast to the others give him advantage over them by making obey him if they want to be safe!
