Season 4 Podcast 89 Pt B “The War in Heaven vs the Battle of Armageddon and Gog and Magog as Seen by John the Revelator.”We learned from the previous podcast that the Beast mentioned in Revelation refers both to Lucifer who led the War in Heaven against Christ and his followers and Satan, the earthly name for Lucifer, who leads the War on earth against Christ and his followers. John speaks of earthly kingdoms who perhaps unknowingly carry on the War in Heaven by trying to destroy those who keep the commandments of God and who believe in Christ. We learned that Satan is behind all evil, and though man may not know it, if he fights against God he is a slave to Satan. Mankind creates secret societies and conspiracies among peoples and nations to overthrow governments, to enslave man, and to rule the world, but the really great conspirator is Satan who reigns in the hearts of evil men.If you want to know who the beast is—it is Satan and everyone else who fights against God, who fights against Christ, who fights against the children of Christ, who fights against freedom, liberty, agency, and freewill. There have been beasts in every age, but none so fierce as those in these the last days because never has there been such means of world domination—nuclear power, one world government, new world order, satellites, internet, one banking system, artificial intelligence, and above all an effort uniting the world that wants to destroy the saints of God. Conspiracy is where the beast is, whatever language he speaks, whatever colors he wears, whatever religion he proclaims. The beast is anti-Christ and dwells in the hearts of other anti-Christs who wish to overthrow the kingdom of God on earth just as he tried to overthrow the kingdom of God in heaven. Listen to the words of Isaiah.Isaiah 14: 12-22 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet. Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned. Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities. For I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the Lord.
