WHAT IS SATAN'S
KINGDOM?
The Prophet
Let's turn to the
text in Luke 10:18 and 19.
"And he said unto them, I
beheld Satan as lightening fall from heaven."
We came across that
passage in the message taken from 1Peter chapter one verse four where our
heavenly inheritance is discussed. In
the course of the message we learned that our inheritance is undefiled. That's when the Holy Ghost gave us insight
into the significance of this passage and the reason for the swift disposal of
Satan from heaven. Because of his
infinite and seemingly, out of control love for the Church, God the Father
wasted no time dispatching the Adversary from the heavens in order to keep our
inheritance undefiled. Today, as I
write, that passage now takes on a deeper meaning. Because it goes before what is written in verse
19, the text for yesterday's message, it serves as a stepping stone to
understanding verse 19.
What Jesus is
telling his disciples is that the leader of the serpents and scorpions, Satan,
is already fallen. Because of that fact,
we have a power over his cohorts and "over all the power of the
enemy."
I made reference to
the movie the Matrix Sunday as an example of how God's word is continually
unplugging us from this worldly matrix.
In the movie, the new member was perceived as being "the one." If you recall, he was taken to see the Oracle
and the Oracle was not convinced that he was who or what Morpheus thought he
was. At the completion of his training, he soon came to understand that he indeed,
was "the one" and that his powers against the enemy were unlimited.
As Special Agents of
Christ, we cannot be effective against the enemy until we fully understand who
we are and what are our God given abilities.
Who are we? We are born again
creatures of God. Sons/daughters of God! What has God given to us according to the text? The
power (exousia: Gk.) to tread on serpents
and scorpions!
Jesus is not
referring to literal snakes and scorpions here. And neither is he referring to merely a
spiritual force. Now, that's a
jawbreaker of a statement unless one understands that just as God has a
Kingdom, so does Satan. And if God has
real, literal troops in His army, so does Satan. Jesus referred to Satan's kingdom with the
remarks that if Satan's kingdom be divided, it cannot stand. (Matthew 12:26) We have learned over the
past few years that Satan does indeed have a kingdom and that Jesus' words
about it being divided are true.
Consequently, we must understand that Satan's kingdom will fall.
(Here, I must say
that I get a unique thrill just writing these words through this "web", Satan's most powerful
tool for enslaving the souls of men. We
had a class some years ago showing the equivalence of www to the number 666.
Imagine how Satan and his minions must feel when they see this stuff
transmitted. They never envisioned their
net being a tool used to bring about their own downfall.)
Back to Satan's
kingdom; he does have one. He has forces
that are ready to do battle against the Kingdom of God and at this time in his lengthy career that
he actually believes he has both the resources and the power to take God's
kingdom out!
God has been showing
us, since 1996; in the text taken from II Thessalonians chapter two, that what
are referred to as "aliens" are none other than Satan's
creation. Someone may object by noting
that Satan does not have creation power.
No, he does not, but he can meddle with God's creation. That is exactly what he promulgated in
Genesis chapter six with the intermingling of the sons of God with the
daughters of men. The result of that
union was a hybrid race known as Giants, or Nephilim. The flood was sent to eliminate that seed
from the face of the earth. That was in
the days of Noah. Jesus prophesied
letting us know that "as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be at the
time of the coming of the Son of man." While that passage focuses on "eating and drinking, marrying and
giving in marriage," it includes with it, the reality that we live
today among the seed of Satan.
Does Satan have a seed? Yes, most definitely! According to Genesis 3:15 Satan has his own seed upon the earth and his seed and the Seed of the woman, which is Christ (and His seed: us) are engaged in a deadly conflict.
Does Satan have a seed? Yes, most definitely! According to Genesis 3:15 Satan has his own seed upon the earth and his seed and the Seed of the woman, which is Christ (and His seed: us) are engaged in a deadly conflict.
God first published
the story of the conflict between the two seeds, not in the Bible, but He wrote
it using the stars that He placed in the heavens. The constellation of Scorpio shows a picture
of a scorpion. Above the scorpion, a
symbol for Satan, is a picture of a man, Ophiuchus, (a symbol for Jesus) holding
a large snake, Serpens (another symbol of Satan.) The tail, stinger, of the Scorpion is lifted
up toward the heel of the Strong Man.
"…and he shall bruise thy heel."
Those who are
familiar with the different species of aliens will tell you that the most
insidious branch of aliens are the Reptilians.
They are depicted in just about every sci-fi movie ever made. The TV
series, "V" that was made in the 80s and then re-made a few years ago used disguised Reptilians as the invading aliens. Another branch, aside from the Greys, is a
group simply known as Insectoids. These
are not usually called by that name; they are just portrayed in many space/alien
films as creatures resembling insects, usually of the scorpion variety.
If you think we've
taken a trip to a place "where no man has boldly gone" before, all you have to do
is read Revelation, chapter nine and there you will find a description of some
locusts unlike any plant-eating locust you will find on the earth. In that passage reference is made to
scorpions. The scorpions are said to
have power. They are positioned as being
"on the earth." If the
reference is to a natural scorpion, then the expression "on the
earth" is redundant at best.
