Revelation 17:13

11 The ^abeast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to¹ perdition.

12 ^a“The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast.

13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast.

14 ^aThese will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will ^bovercome them, ^cfor He is Lord of lords and King of kings; ^dand those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”

15 Then he said to me, ^a“The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, ^bare peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues.

16 And the ten horns which you saw on the beast, ^athese will hate the harlot, make her ^bdesolate ^cand naked, eat her flesh and ^dburn her with fire.

Revelation 17:13-14

So there we are—spelled out in three different terms: called, chosen, and faithful. We certainly pray and are hopeful that it is the case; God will make sure that it is.

In biblical imagery, a beast symbolizes a political or military system, or its leader. The Beast attains its great power and authority when ten territory leaders will give their power and strength to the Beast, so they are temporarily made kings, or leaders, of ten territories. This Beast power is a powerful group of ten ruthless individuals with a common agenda to depopulate the earth. Working hand in hand with the Beast will be the False Prophet, a powerful, miracle-working religious leader.
