ide white horses clothed in white linen. (Revelation 19:8-16)<br />

<strong>The</strong> scarlet colored beast is also described in Revelation 17:3 as full of names of<br />

blasphemy.<br />

So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet<br />

coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.<br />

This description of the scarlet colored beast would indicate that scarlet refers more to<br />

the sinful character of the beast than it’s honor and authority. Thus, in context, the<br />

scarlet color of the beast seems more representative of the vile nature of the beast.<br />

This nature is characterized by the beast’s arrogant opposition and slanderous,<br />

authoritative evil speaking towards God. It indicates the possession of the beast by<br />

Satan; the prince of this world according to the Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in John<br />

12:31, 14:30 and 16:11.<br />

Revelation 17:7 teaches that the superpower is in bondage to the scarlet colored<br />

beast where the beast is said to carry her.<br />

And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman,<br />

and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. (Revelation 17:7)<br />

Revelation 12:3 and 12:9 confirm this vile nature of the scarlet colored beast. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

verses describes Satan, the devil, as a great red dragon having 7 heads and 10<br />

horns, and 7 crowns upon his heads.<br />

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dr agon, having seven heads<br />

and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. (Revelation 12:3)<br />

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the<br />

whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels we re cast out with him. (Revelation 12:9)<br />

Paradoxically, while the superpower appears to those blinded by Satan’s antichristian<br />

world value system to be a free nation because of her preeminent economic and<br />

military power, the woman is really under the control of Satan’s demonic power as<br />

she rides the scarlet colored beast. Although she’s being carried in a position of<br />

power as the world’s #1 superpower because of her combined economic and military<br />

strength, she is in financial and spiritual bondage to the Satanic power of the scarlet<br />

colored beast. This is why we hear the following cry from the prophet John recorded<br />

in Revelation 18:2-4 concerning the superpower:<br />

And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, <strong>Babylon</strong> the great is fallen, is fallen, and i s become<br />

the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and<br />

hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of<br />

the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich<br />

through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying , Come out
