Satan is loosed for a little season
In Revelation: 20-3 Satan must be loosed for a little season. In a way this cycle runs
concurrent all throughout the gospel age during the recapitulated Armageddon script.
That being, the gospel has been restricted in various independent locals over the
centuries. But it happens in an all-encompassing way at the closing of this earth’s
history of sin and sorrow, such that Satan will be loosed and again allowed free reign
over the nations of the earth to keep the gospel from being preached. One might ask;
is this not already happening to a great degree? In a certain way yes, because the
gospel going forth worldwide is that of a blanket of small pox, even much worse than a
covering of fig leaves.
The deception is greater than it ever has been in the history of the church, well at least
on a numbers basis it is, because of sheer the population effects…In the 15th century
when deception abounded to an even greater level there were only a ½ billion people
on the earth, whereas today we have 7 billion, or 14 times the deception and confusion
added to the mix. This loosing of Satan corresponds to 2 Thess. 2:8-12 which will be
fulfilled at this time: "Then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume
with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming, even
him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying
wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because
they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause
GOD SHALL SEND THEM STRONG DELUSION, THAT THEY SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE, that
they all might be damned…" Why? Because they "believed not the truth" when it was
preached unto them, "but had pleasure in unrighteousness." Paul said in Romans 1-18
that these do hold the truth in unrighteousness.
Even down throughout the ages the common Christian believed that God was the
creator of all things, but now in the day of even stronger delusion many confessing
Christians have been turned over to the delusion of Darwinism, not to mention the
whole secular world who worships at the feet of Darwin, the humanist evolution drug of
the day. Example: The country of Japan rejected the gospel and fully embraced
Darwinism.
Satan has been bound since the cross that the gospel may freely be preached among
the nations, yet there are those who believe not the truth, but have pleasure in
unrighteousness; they persist in their ungodly ways and sin against the common
enlightenment of man John 1-9, and against the knowledge of God. For my people are
destroyed for the lack of knowledge Hosea:4-6. Then when the epoch of mankind
abounds in iniquity, the zenith of unrighteousness comes to the full, and manifests to
the point of Cain on steroids. The gospel message, “the restrainer” will have been
removed by mankind himself through the deceivableness of the Serpent, that Wicked
One, the Dragon, the ancient one Satan, that old Devil. It is man’s total rejection of God
that unbinds Satan. The same star that fell in Rev. 9 and was given the key to
Pandora’s Box of false prophets, on demand of the people who will no longer endure
sound doctrine. Satan is loosed and the true gospel is no longer preached. They will
believe, but what they believe will be a lie and a counterfeit of God, for they will be sent
the strongest of delusion from God! This will be the awful judgment, when God shall
give the nations of the earth over to Satan at the end of this earth’s history; they will be
given over to reprobate minds as God takes away His grace and the power of the
gospel. Satan will work through his two beast system described in Revelation 13.
Leviathan, and Behemoth, pride and the false prophet. These two working wonders will
keep the gospel from being preached any more among the nations; and they will
believe a lie! The lie of Solomon’s peace and safety utopia on earth (humanism).
Having not obeyed the gospel which has been preached "in season and out of
season" (2 Tim. 4:2), they will believe Satan’s lie of carnal Christianity, a bastard
form of Jesus portrayed in the image of the beast. In their minds there is no need
for bowing to the Lordship of Christ before having Him as Savior and King, for the
simple reason that He has become their IDOL. There will be no need for the work
of the Holy Spirit in conviction for the purpose of holy life and righteous living. Let
us do away with Titus 2-12 they proclaim. In his subtlety coming as an angel of light,
(through the second beast of Rev. 13, his false prophet, “his own” John 8-44)
Satan deceives them; and my friend he does this ever so gradually, that it is
almost imperceptible. This is the woman “taking and hiding leaven” in the gospel
message until the whole message is leavened. Matthew 13-33. In fact, he is
deceiving Christianity even more than ever today, for even now we see many who
"will not endure sound doctrine, but after their own lust…they heap to
themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they…turn away their ears from the
truth", and turn unto fables (2 Timothy). Did you know that this false doctrine of
easy grace and flesh Christianity being promulgated in our day is only setting the
stage for the complete loosing of Satan? This is that strong delusion from God,
being sent to those who receive not the love of the truth that they might be saved
from sin!
With the restraining and convicting power of the truth is removed, many will
readily believe the lie out of hell speaking that Jesus Christ is not God, and there
will be no wrath of God to come, no judgment, therefore they have no need for
salvation from sin or redemption through the blood atonement of Christ, having
no need of being reconciled back to God. They will believe the lie that "every man
is a god unto himself, so do what you want to do and live as you please; eat, drink
and be merry, for tomorrow we die." They were eating and drinking the false
doctrine, they knew not, and the flood came and took them away Luke 17. Then
when
Satan is finally loosed, the marked contrast in the lives of the children of
God, to those of the openly and religiously profane, the beast, that man of terror,
Isaiah 14, (the will of Satan manifest in mankind) will use his hand to persecute
and endeavor to stamp out all vestige of worship of the true and living
God revealed in the gospel of Jesus Christ. As a roaring lion, he will bring all the
power and forces at his command to try and stamp out all signs of true
Christianity! (the God of forces in Daniel 11-38). And how just how long this little
season will be, we have no indication in the Word of God, other
than possibly the symbolic meanings of 42 months, 1260 days, and 3 ½ years. But
we do know that it will be right down at the end of this age, just before the
second coming of Christ. This will be a time when there will be very few believers
upon the earth; for it will be a time of great persecution. Then we will see the
manifest revelation to the Son of mans’ question in Luke 18:8 when He asked,
"When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" It appears that
there will be very few true believers left. All else will be taken into the darkest of
deceptions. One taken and one left. Taken where? The disciples asked Jesus;
taken to where the vultures gather He said, this is the great feast of God, in Rev.
19-17. The feast of demons feasting on the souls of men. There will not be a great
revival as the pundits with great swelling words speak, but rather a “little flock”
seeking refuge in the Ark of salvation, for Jesus said it would be as in the days of
Noah and the days of Lot.
The wolves in sheep's clothing are devouring the flock and have seemingly
triumphed over the church of the living God, but all they have trampled upon is
the outer court, for the gates of hell shall not prevail against the inner court
and sanctuary of His church. At the height of persecution, our Lord Jesus Christ
will be revealed with His mighty angels in His glorious second coming, "in flaming
fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel
of our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from
the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power" (2 Thes. 1:8-9) At the
appointed time, in the which no one knows but the Father, the Son of man shall
come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe"
verse 10. All of this corresponds perfectly with Rev. 20:7-9 during the final
capitulation of things finished up , that at the end of the age, just when Satan and
his forces have "compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved
city…fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them." This has been
happening throughout the church age on a lesser level but there will be a final
recompense of everything, as the transgressors come to the full.
This will be when “time shall be no more” and the judgment will be set up, and
this earth and age as we know it will be no more! All the elements therein will
dissolve in fervent heat 2 Peter 3. No man knows how much longer we have to
wait for His second coming, not even the angels in heaven, it could be today,
tomorrow, next year, ten years, a hundred years or more, we just don’t know. All
we do know is that He is coming again; and when He does, He will reward His
children with an eternity with Him upon the new earth, and the wicked with
eternal judgment and damnation in hell.
It is widely taught and believed today by the majority of Christendom through the
guise of pre-millennialism that the loosing of Satan will occur after the second
coming, while falsely teaching that it will be at the end of Christ’s supposed
thousand year reign upon the earth. They say the Messiah is to reign on a literal
throne in the city of Jerusalem, nay may God forbid such heresy. The heresy
teaches that British Israelism has the original throne of David and Zionism has
claim to the Temple mount. Then they falsely teach that suddenly towards the
end of this thousand years, His reign is to be challenged by Satan. While claiming
that Christ and those who remain faithful to Him are to be contained in the
earthly city of Jerusalem. Teaching He and His army are seemingly helpless against
the onslaught of Satan and his hosts, and only the miraculous intervention of God
in sending fire down from heaven will save the day. Do Christians even realize
that if this were true, it would mean that Christ would suffer a second
humiliation, meaning also that He failed in HIS finished works at Calvary? Even
though all power has been given to Him, both in heaven and upon earth
(Matthew. 28:18), yet they say He must wait for a miraculous deliverance from
the Father before He can be saved! However the Scriptures nowhere speak of
this. The truth is, that scripture teaches us that those risen in Christ shall be raised
incorruptible 1 Cor. 15-52, and shall never be tempted again. Therefore, to
believe that Christ will again be put into a place of humiliation under the
onslaught of Satan, will need another deliverance, and that those in Christ will be
again tempted directly contradicts the full weight of scripture which speaks of the
second coming of Christ as being the culmination of all and the end of this earth’s
history as we know it, the end of salvation, and the delivering up the kingdom to
the God. Instead of His being humiliated, it will be His enemies that will be
brought down as His footstool, to confess Him as Lord and be brought into
judgment! As the tribes of the earth mourned Matthew 24-30.
This false futurism is all spawned from the writings of Francisco Ribera, and is
nothing more than a Jesuit monks vomit, regurgitated through Jesuit controlled
Oxford by Schofield in the Bible College Theological Cemeteries through Jesuit
ghost writers. Ribera’s' work written in the 1580s, entitled; In Sacrum Beati
Ioannis Apostoli, & Evangelistiae Apocalypsin Commentarij. And for those
who don’t believe it, they tied up the other end with the false end times gospel
with the darkness of Preterism, prophesied by Luis de’ Alcazar another Spanish
Jesuit monk, written in the annuls of Vestigatio arcani sensus in Apocalypsi
(1614). His view was that everything in the Apocalypse refers to events that
already have come to pass in 70 AD. He was the classic Jesuit dialectic to the
works of Ribera’s pre- millennialism hoax, the author of Christendom’s future
eschatology (futurism). All of the Protestant beliefs concerning the end times is
derived from these two Jesuit Theologians. The protestant church has always
been controlled by the Pope, through the Council of Trent, they just never knew
it. Her famous Westminster Confession is nothing more than the theology of the
Manichean reprobate, St. Augustine of Hippo. Christianity as we know it has been
controlled by the Gnostics for 1600 years, under the guise of Catholic and
Protestant titles. You see, Satan is most brilliant at what he does.
