It is a fairly long explanation. The book of Daniel is the key to understanding the book of revelation. There is no longer a Lucifer. God keeps things simple by calling things what they are. Satan is his name now. He used to have an office in the government offices of God's kingdom. he no longer has an office there. He is imprisoned on this earth. Jude verse 6 refers to him. he is the god of this world now. Revelation 12 verse 9 and II Corinthians 4 verse 4. The "false prophet" is the final pope. The "beast" called "the Assyrian" in MANY prophecies is modern Germany. The "10 horns" correlates with the "10 toes" in Daniel 2 verse 42. The "7 heads" are the resurrections of the Roman Empire throughout history. For example: many people are not aware that Benito Mussolini correctly, publicly proclaimed the Third Reich" to be the "resurrection of the holy roman empire".

It's all open for interpretation. Revelation 17:1 - 17:14 will offer more insight as to what the Dragon's 7 heads 10 horns and 7 crowns are. My thought is that the 1st Beast, whom has been given (or will be given) Authority from the Dragon, will have the Dragons heads horns and crowns plus 3 new crowns.

Revelations is a difficult book, & there are many ways of "interpretations" though in truth only ONE way is the correct interpretation. To be revealed...though there are some "theories". The Red Dragon is more than likely Satan. the 7 heads..possible 7 leaders of the 10 nation confederacy. (United Nations..perhaps?) Crowns usually means a kingdom. Yes Satan is going to war against the people of God, along with those that follow after Satan's ways. But the cool thing is that God has revealed to us all that HE (Jesus Christ) WINS this war!! Amen & Amen...Even so Lord Jesus come! (keep on learnin & studying the Bible & askin the Lord for the wisdom to learn in truth about who God is..& what He is doing)

What you have here is Representatives of 7 nations that are left and under the direct power of the anti-Christ - a great book by Tim LaHay is called Understanding Revelations for Yourself or Understating the End Times Prophecies of for Yourself. This will help tie in all the prophectic books of the end times and their meanings. They should not be to too costly and if family.org has them when it gets to the suggested donation if you cannot afford to pay put in 0 and they will send it to you. Good luck in your studies it can be very difficult to follow, but always ask the Holy Spirit to lead you.

Really why people don't understand the word is because they don't let the holy spirit guide them(2Peter 1:21). Also if you want wisdom; you have to ask God(James 1:5). The Bible always interpets itself(Isaiah 28:9-10).
Actually there was a war in heaven(Rev.12:7).
Your answers are Revealed!
Great Red Dragon = satan the devil.(Rev.12:9)
Heads= kings or kingdoms (Rev.17:9)
Horns = kingdoms (Rev.17:12)
Crowns= kings (Rev.13:1)---7 crowns are 7 kings (Rev.17:10)
Rev.13:18 "Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."
It tells you exactly who the beast is: from the clues in the Bible.
(REV.13:18) on the Pope's Crown (tiara) are these letters: VICARIUS FILII DEI; what do they signify? OUR SUNDAY VISITOR, (CATHOLIC WEEKLY) BUREAU OF INFORMATION," HUNTINGTON, IND., APRIL 18, 1915.
ROMAN NUMERALS FOR THESE LETTERS ARE: V=5; I=1; C=100; X=10; U=5; D=500; L=50 = THEY ADD UP TO 666.
*Now we have alot of information about the beast; to start out with; we should find out (2THESS.2:4) "who claims to be God" and is "worshipped"?
Let's see; this church (Rev.17:9)"sits on 7 hills" in Rome.
It wears (REV.17:4)"purple and scarlet".
It is a (REV.17:5)"mother church", so it has daughters or other churches following her.
It will think (DAN.7:25)"to change times and laws." GENERAL CATHOLIC CATECHISM
It even has casted "all the truth to the ground" = Dan.8:12
"All the world has followed it" = Rev.13:12-15
*It had a(REV.13:1-3)deadly wound that was healed.
THE CATHOLIC ADVOCATE (AUSTRALIA), APRIL 18,1929.
FRONT PG. OF S.F. CHRONICLE WITH HEADLINE "HEAL WOUND OF MANY YEARS"; FEB.12,1929)
Nebuchadnezzar's Dream
http://community.webshots.com/photo/2715...
*Daniel 2:32,38; 7:4; 3:1 "Head of Gold" = Lion = Babylon = King Nebuchadnezzar
*Daniel 2:32: 7:5: 5:25-28; 6:28; 8:20 "Breast and Arms of Silver" = Bear = Medo-Persia = King Darius & Cyrus
*Daniel 2:32; 7:6: 8:21 "Belly and thighs of brass" = Leopard = Greece = Alexander the Great
*Daniel 2:33; 7:7,8,24,25: 8:9,12 "Legs of Iron" = Dreadful Beast = Rome
*Daniel 2:33 "Feet part of iron and part of clay" = Divided Empire
**Now the 10 horns represents kings or kingdoms and 1 comes up among the them and destroys (DANIEL 7:8,23,24)three. THE 10 HORNS ARE POLITICAL: ANGLO-SAXONS, FRANKS, ALAMMI, OSTROGOTHS, LOMBARD, SUEVI, BURGUNDIANS, VISIGOTHS, VANDALS, HERULI, AND THEN A LITTLE HORN COMES UPON THE SCENE THAT IS RELIGIOUS-POLITICAL THAT HAS DESTROYED THE HERULI, VANDALS AND OSTROGOTHS. NOW DETERMINING WHO THE HORN IS: A.C. FLICK, THE RISE OF THE MEDIAEVAL CHURCH. (PUTNAM'S 1909 ED.)PP.148-149.
*FROM ALL THE CLUES; WE KNOW IT'S THE ROMAN EMPIRE (REV.17:4; COMPARE TO MATT.27:28 AND MARK 15:17
The Anti-Christ
http://community.webshots.com/photo/2715...
The Mark of the beast is 666! To accept the beast's mark is to not accept God's Holy Sabbath Day Saturday as Working on the Sabbath.
ACTUALLY THE MARK OF THE BEAST IS WHAT PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND! IT'S VERY SIMPLE REALLY; YOU HAVE TO DO THE OPPOSITE OF IT.
THE OPPOSITE OF THE MARK IS THE "SEAL OF GOD" WHICH IS IN THE 4TH COMMANDMENT(EXOD.20:8-11; REV.14:7). NOW LOOK WHAT REV.7:2-3 SAYS "AND I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL ASCENDING FROM THE EAST, HAVING THE SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD: AND HE CRIED WITH A LOUD VOICE TO THE FOUR ANGELS, TO WHOM IT WAS GIVEN TO HURT THE EARTH AND THE SEA. SAYING, HURT NOT THE EARTH, NEITHER THE SEA, NOR THE TREES, TILL WE HAVE SEALED THE SERVANTS OF OUR GOD IN THEIR FOREHEADS."
SO IF YOU KEEP SATURDAY HOLY(JN.4:22-24) AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST FAITH; YOU WILL HAVE THE(REV.14:12) "SEAL OF GOD".
BUT IF YOU DON'T KEEP HIS DAY(MARK) AND FOLLOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH(IMAGE); HE WILL GIVE YOU THIS(REV.14:9-11).
The Image of the Beast:
http://community.webshots.com/photo/3703...
Rev.17:10 "the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space." This was fulfilled on television when the Papacy said, "that Benedict would be pope for a short time".
REALLY HIS IMAGE IS GOING TO COME ALIVE! WHEN HE PUTS CHURCH AND STATE TOGETHER. HERE'S JUST A PIECE OF IT IN--"POPE'S DREAM OF HEALING CHRISTIAN RIFT STILL A DISTANT GLIMMER" IN ENTERPRISE RECORD DATED: SUNDAY JUNE 12, 2005.
TO BE SUCH MEANS "AND THE BEAST WAS TAKEN, AND WITH HIM THE FALSE PROPHET THAT WROUGHT MIRACLES BEFORE HIM, WITH WHICH HE DECEIVED THEM THAT HAD RECEIVED THE MARK OF THE BEAST, AND THEM THAT WORSHIPPED HIS IMAGE. THESE BOTH WERE CAST ALIVE INTO A LAKE OF FIRE BURNING WITH BRIMSTONE."--REV.19:20
THE SYSTEM IS MADE UP OF:
TRUE CHRISTIANITY VS. FALSE CHRISTIANITY
FOLLOWING JESUS(COL.2:6) OR NOT FOLLOWING JESUS(PHIL.2:21).
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!

The book of Revelation was written to a particular people during a particular time of persecution by the Roman government. It is figurative and not meant to be taken literally. It was never meant to be a prediction.

No person can tell you what John's dream meant. If they try to give anything other than their opinion, they are lying.
