in the words of Ms. Janson
In the final time that which is ultimately going to destroy what Revelation reveals to be the “beast” and “false prophet that wrought miracles before him” is “a lake of fire burning with brimstone”. Is this fire going to be man made (the result of a nuclear device?) or the result of global warming? From the understanding of the interpretation of the “beast” and “the false prophet that wrought miracles before him” the final “lake of fire and brimstone” is ultimately going to wipe out every trace of anti-Christ. This ‘incineration’ of a kind is ultimately going to destroy the hold that the power of the ‘beast’ has on the minds of the inhabitants of the earth.
Elijah- This is the question we as children of God answer everyday with our free choice but, God knows all and sees all and I have faith in our power as creations of the likeness of God, with Jesus and the many prophets and ancestors as logic, guidance, and foundation
The message of Revelation is that Christians should understand what is taking place at the present time: man has over centuries allowed the power of the ‘beast’ to become immense, but the Trinity is greater and is in control. Revelation reveals that God has always known what is going to happen. Christians should just stick to their faith and always obey the Ten Commandments then the evil spirits in the air around us have no control over our lives.
Ephesians 6:12 (New International Version) “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms"
