What role do the ten horns in Revelation 13 play in relation to the Antichrist?
The ten horns refer to kings, and in Revelation 13 they become the base of operation for the world ruler called the Antichrist. They are tied to the tribulation-era kingdoms and to the beast rising from the mass of humanity.
Les explains that in Scripture the horns refer to kings, so the ten horns are ten kings. They will be the base of operation for the world ruler called the Antichrist, and this is picked up in Revelation 13 because the book is the road map of the tribulation. He notes that an earlier semicolon jumped about 1,700 years from the Roman empire to the European community as the revived Roman empire. The vision then speaks of standing on the sand of the sea, the mass of humanity, and seeing a beast.
