It's been a long time, but I've gotten fuzzy on who all the characters in Revelation are supposed to be, ala JW...
Was the 'harlot' the dreaded world empire of false religion? Is that the same as 'Christendom' said with a sneer? Where does that put Jews and Muslims and every other non-Christian religion? And what about the multiheaded dragon or beast or whatever? Wasn't that the UN?
Thanks for the refresher.

Babylon the Great (BTG) = worldwide empire of false religion (all except JWs) thus includes Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, etc. Christendom is considered worse because they claim to represent the God of the Bible and follow Christ.
Scarlet colored wild beast/image of the wild beast = United Nations
7 headed/ten horn wild beast = Satan's earthly organization that gets its power from the dragon (Satan)
Thanks, Blondie.

Darn I only have six heads
