(The Dragon, the beast's real source of power.)

     footnote:  

          I use the term "Antichrist" loosely, for it is a 'misnomer'.  
          There is no,....   "The" 'Antichrist', (as many teach, using 
          "Revelation 13" & "Daniel 7" as their texts.  

          By the way!  There is no reference or mention to the 
          terminology or phrase,.... "The Antichrist", in these two 
          chapters referred to above.  

               There is only,
 
                   the "Dragon"          (In Revelation)
                                  &       
                   the "Beast".          (In Revelation & Daniel)
                                  &

                   the "False Prophet".  (In Revelation 17) 
       
          This website gives a very interesting and very convincing 
          interpretation of these two chapters and one more chapter 
          from the Book of Revelation as to the identity of this 
          beast of Revelation 13.  In addition, Revelation chapter 13 
          only describes the "Seventh" Head, (Empire).  There are a 
          total of "Eight" Empires.  (Revelation 17:11,...As for the 
          beast that was and is not, it is an "eighth' but it belongs 
          to the seven, and it goes to destruction.)
