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. Revelation 13:15
It is to be a living image, it will speak and act just like the other.
Then when the Scripture tells you and me to look out for the image of the beast, and be afraid of that image of the beast,–not afraid in the sense of being afraid that it will hurt you, but being afraid of falling into the way of worshiping it,–then the thing for you and me to do is to study the thing of which it is an image."
