The outworking of history identifies tis image as the organization proposed, promoted, and supported by Britain and the United States and known initially as the League of Nations. Later in Revelation chapter 17, it will appear under a different symbol, that of a living, breathing scarlet-colored wild beast havign an independent existenc. This international body "speaks " in that it makes boastful claims to be the only one to bring peace and security to mankind. But reality it has become a forum for member nations to exchange verbal tirades and insults. It has threatened with ostracism, or a living death, any nation or people that does not bow down to its authority. It has actually expelled nations that fail to abice by its ideologies. At the onset of the great tribulation, militaristic "horns" of this image of the wild beast will fulfill its devastating role. - REVELATION 7;14; 17:8, 16.
