Here I go. I've posted this before, btw.
So when is the second coming, you might be wondering. Well it won't happen until a significant world event happens.
Daniel 7 in the OT, and Revelations 13-18 in the NT, have essentially the same prophesy. In Revelations, the symbolism is actually explained.
So a whore sitting on a beast with seven heads and 10 horns comes out of the ocean. Another small beast appears and subdues 3 horns (wounds one head) He (the Antichrist) then install the mark of the beast in your hand or forehead (666) and runs the world for a time, times and the dividing of a time (42 months, or 3 1/2 years)
Rev. Says that the whore is a city, a new Babylon. The 7 heads are the 7 mountains (probably means Continents) the 10 horns are 10 world leaders.
So, imo, the world is going to congregate into 10 trading empires. Think of the leverage of 10 empires of a billion people, vs 180 small countries. For example, China with terrible human rights and labour laws and environmental practices, is taking over the world economy. To counter the low cost of their exports because of their practices, countries will have to band together to pressure China on environmental and labour practices.
Hence the 10 empires on 7 continents, run from a city ( the whore). Then on one head (one continent) 3 "horns" will be wounded (possible war) and taken over by one man, the Antichrist.
I think it will be Asia, and he will then take over the whole world Pires, from the world governing city, perhaps Dubai, and institute the mark of the beast. And run the world for 3 1/2 years, and kill Christians (Christian martyrs)
If you get the Mark, you have sided with Satan and are not written in the Lambs book of Life.
