The Lamb will conquer them!

Revelation 17:1-18
Beast with seven heads and ten horns.
The woman, drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.
The beast, it was and is not and is to come, and go to destruction.
The ten horns the will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them.
The beast will make the woman desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire.
So often and so vigorously did the Old testament prophets denounce that literal Babylon that it became a byword代名詞 for human pride and vainglory虛榮.
For John and his readers, Babylon, the luxury-loving prostitute, was Rome, city of the seven hills - rich, splendid, pampered養尊處優, decadent頹廢 Rome: Rome, where Christians were thrown to the lions and burnt alive as public entertainment; Rome, the cess-pit糞坑 of the empire.
But every age has its 'Babylon', the personification of all the greed and luxury and selfish pleasure-seeking which entice people away from God; the things that promise so much and give so little.
And Babylon, the epitome縮影 of all that cheats is doomed!
The beast: supported by a satanic power. The beast in these verse is sometimes a kingdom, sometimes a ruler.
Was, now is not: At time evil powers rampage through human history; at times they go underground - but they always return.
Seven kings: These may be the Roman emperors. If so, the sixth is either Galba or Bespasian; the seventh Titus. Alternatively, the seven may be empires. Perhaps it is best to give the number seven its symbolic meaning; so 'the whole historic Roman Empire.'
Ten kings: Sometimes taken to mean Roman emperors, but John is describing a future coalition聯盟.
The Babylon and the prostitute woman will be destroy until the word of God is full filled.
How?
Jesus Christ will conquer the beast and all unclean spirits. Praise to the Lord Almighty.
