Of course, there is nothing that the rulers of this world can do against Jesus himself. He is in heaven, far from their reach. But Jesus's brothers, the remaining ones of the woman's seed, are still on earth and apparently vulnerable. (Revelation 12:17) Many of the horns have demonstrated bitter hostility toward them, and in this way they have battled with the Lamb. (Matthew 25:40, 45) Soon, though, the time will come for God's Kingdom to "crush and put an end to all these kingdoms." (Daniel 2:44) Then, the kings of the earth will be in a fight to the finish with the Lamb, as we shall soon see. (Revelation 19:11-21) But here we learn enouh to realize that the nations will not succeed. Though they and the UN scarlet-colored wild beast have their "one thought," they cannot defeat the great "Lord of lords and King of kings," nor can they defeat "those called the chosen and faithful with him," which includes his anointed followers still on earth. These too wil have conquered by keeping integrity in answer to Satan's vile accusations. -ROMANS 8:37-39; REVELATION 12:10, 11.
