The ten horns. The ten "horn-kings" who "rule as kings for one hour with the beast" symbolize all the important and influential men of every activity [art, education, commerce', industry, government, etc.] to the degree that they serve the central authority. Their goal is to honor themselves, and to do this they give their power and authority to the beast to help it fight against Christ and his church. See Revelation 17:14. But the Lamb and his followers constantly defeat every form of anti-christian power. It may not seem that way on the surface of things, but just when the beast seems to be winning, his doom is already there.
