Subject: Lucifer cast down? |
Bible Note: I personally don’t think it is a second chance for Satan as much as a condition that is finally coming to pass. Satan has been granted a stay of execution but his time is quickly running out. He has been sentenced and the execution of this sentence and his final days, before he is forever placed into the lake of fire, is taking place. Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Satan knows that his days are numbered when he is cast out of heaven he is going to unleash his wrath on God’s people residing on the earth. Rev. 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. It is my belief that this short time is what is called the great tribulation and what Jeremiah calls the time of Jacob’s trouble and a period where Satan makes war with the saint residing on earth. Daniel 7:21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; Rev. 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
