How many images of the Antichrist will there be?

The one performing miracles in the beast's sight will tell earth dwellers to make an image to the beast, the Antichrist, emperor of the revived Roman Empire. It is uncertain whether there will be just one image or several, but the whole world will worship that image of the Antichrist.

Les explains that the beast is the Antichrist, the emperor of the revived Roman Empire. The one who performs miracles in the beast's sight deceives those who dwell on the earth and tells them to make an image or likeness to the beast. Les thinks it will be an image or an idol and is not sure whether it will be just one or whether they will have several, but the whole world will worship that image of the Antichrist.

Revelation 13:14

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

Revelation 13:15

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
