Hi, I thought I'd share one theory... I'm not the only one who has come up with it, but it's my best guess about Revelation
Note that this is a premillennialist, post-trib theory, NOT dispensational
?: Babylon the harlot who makes the kings of the earth drunk with her wine
- Babylon is obviously the Western financial system that has reached its epitome in the United States of America and has funded Statism around the world with its fiat money (Federal Reserve Notes). She's called a harlot because of the wicked love triangle between the Banks, the Government, and the Church that have made the rise of the global Beast possible... the "wine" of her fornication is paper debt certificates, debt-based fiat "money"; she rides the Beast during its rise, but Babylon (USA) eventually falls and becomes naked and desolate; the 10 Horns suck her dry
?: the Beast with seven heads, five that have fallen, one is, one yet to come but remains only a while; one head recovers from a mortal wound
- the Beast from the Sea is obviously worldwide Statism, a global socialist government that makes up its own laws instead of obeying God's (this is the same thing as the Antichrist). Anyone with any sense can plainly see that the world is turning into a unified police state organized by the UN and other such organizations, at the behest of the global banking cartel so that it will be easier for them to make us all slaves to their empire of debt
5 heads = Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greeks (major empires that persecuted the people of God before the time of Revelation)
1 head that was = Roman Empire (the events of the end times will parallel the condition of Christianity at the writing, which was persecuted by Rome)
1 head yet to come = 20th-century Marxism (Jews were persecuted by German and Italian nationalist socialists, while the Christians persecuted by Communists in Russia and Asia), which only existed a short time
Mortal wound = Communism was allegedly defeated in the Cold War when the Berlin Wall fell, but the reality is that socialism is still thriving and is about to rear its ugly head again!
?: the Ten Horns that rise for a little bit but are defeated by Jesus
- the global Beast will consist of 10 regions, that is 10 Unions that make up the global government: the European Union, a North American Union, a Mediterranean Union, a Chinese Union, Russian Union, East Asian Union, and so on and so forth, you get the picture... there will be no more national sovereignty, no more USA, just a group of Unions controlled by one central banking system, but that will inevitably collapse and things will go to hell
?: the False Prophet (or Beast from the Earth)
- false belief systems, led by modern academia and the modern church, which encourage people to submit to slavery by the global government; also, the lure of secular humanism and material things--TECHNOLOGY
?: the Mark of the Beast that you need to buy or sell
- on the hand: probably a global ID, which will serve as a credit card, except it that it might actually be imbedded in the hand as a chip... they already did away with gold and silver currency, so the next step will be to do away with paper currencies and just have electronic "money" (so they have an infinite supply of it, all they have to do is make a computer entry and credit magically appears)
- on the forehead: brainwashing/indoctrination by a secular education system, i.e. a global accreditation system. Everyone will be forced to go to schools approved by the State, and if you don't get an approved diploma, you won't be able to participate in the economy... Your credit rating will be determined by how far you get in the "education" (brainwashing) process known as the college and university system.

So you see, mainstream Christians are already participating in Babylon, and they're not doing anything at all to speak out against the Beast! They already use government fiat money, and they already participate in the secular education system.
Can anyone point out the Bible verses that say you should send your children to government schools or use paper money? The word for "money" in many instances in the Greek New Testament was SILVER, not paper! The Jews and Christians had their own silver--they didn't participate in the heathen economy! So why has it all of a sudden become OK for Christians to yoke themselves to non-believers? Don't say the Bible didn't warn you of this!
I won't feel sorry for anyone when the secular economy collapses. Don't come crying to God when the US dollar becomes worthless; He warned you, and you failed to listen because you were too busy pledging your allegiance to the flag and listening to phony preachers like Joel Osteen and company.
