The Stage is Set for Revelation's Final Act.
The Bible book of Daniel and Revelation are linked. Revelation is a continuation of Daniel's prophecies. (Daniel 12). Just as Daniel used beasts to represent political powers, so does the Apostle John in Revelation. Revelation 12 to 18 is a description of today's political and religious scene.
The stage is set for Revelation's final act. The cast has been selected.
) The Seven Headed Dragon--The Original Serpent, Satan the Devil.
) Seven Headed Wild Beast--the world's political system who receives their power and authority from the "ruler of this world", Satan the Devil. (Luke 4:5,6) (Revelation 13:2)
) The Image of the Wild Beast--League of nations followed by the United Nations representing the political powers of the world.
) Two Horned Beast--United States as an extension of Great Britain, who makes itself appear to be a Lamb or "Christlike" but speaks Satan the Devil's words with a dragon's mouth. "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men..."(Revelation 13:13) The United States has impressed the world with its military prowess and is the only country who has used atomic bombs in war "maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men..."
) Scarlet Colored Beast upon whom the Great Harlot sits--Revelation 17:7-13 is the perfect description of the League of Nations followed by the United Nations.
) The Great Harlot, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots, who commits fornication with the kings of the earth and makes the merchants of the world rich--all the world's religions so-called Christian and non-Christian. Over the centuries, religions and Monarchy's have been in illicit relationships with one another as is equally true of today's religions and the world political systems, who support the wars of the governments they live under. They claim to be faithful to God's Kingdom and Jesus Christ but are unfaithfully committing fornication with the kings of the earth by encouraging their followers to give their allegiance to them and fight their wars. Harlots is plural because there are many unfaithful religions. Religions also make the merchants of world rich off their holiday celebrations. (Revelation 18:3) (Luke 4:8)
) The False Prophet--United States, who presents itself to be "under God" and claims to be "the last, best hope for humanity", promising to bring a "Golden Age and peace to the world", which is false because God's Kingdom under the authority of Jesus Christ is "the last, best hope for humanity" and will establish "the thousand year reign of peace."(1 Thessalonians 5:1-3) (Daniel 2:44)
