Ep 526 – Revelation 20:7-10

So, what happens to Satan? He has been an essential actor in the great drama that marks the span of mankind's existence. He was there at the fall and was the instigator behind it. He has been present throughout each generation, tempting, deceiving, and alluring gullible human beings to rebel against their Maker. He attempted to convince Jesus to walk away from His divine calling by the Father and forego His role as the Savior of the world. And in the period of the tribulation, Satan will be the force behind the Antichrist's rise to power and his ill-fated attempt to exterminate the people of God. But Antichrist will fail. Satan will be defeated. In Revelation 20:7-10, we will see Satan's release, after having been locked away for the entirety of Christ's 1,000-year reign. Even after a millennium filled with peace and prosperity because of the righteous rule of Christ, Satan will have no trouble finding those who will join his last-gasp attempt at an insurrection. Satan never changes. He knows no repentance. And the lost of earth, those who have refused to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior, Lord and King, will still display the stubbornness and hardened hearts that have marked mankind since the fall.
