Mr Gordon; A closer look at Revelation ch 13 makes it clear that the events subsequent to the 7headed beast rising again , after receiving its death wound , have not yet occurred. BTW I am not aware of anyone having been killed for failing to declare their allegiance to the UN or the League of Nations , for that matter. Neither of these institutions could realistically qualify as a beast dominating the world political system, like , say the Roman empire. The League was virtually ineffective and limitd by the fact that the US never became a member . The UN likewise lacks clout . That is not to say , that in the future ,in a more powerful form , it wont become the 8th king.
