So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

30. 1. 1.The First Person of the Satanic Trinity : THE DRAGON

31. NOTESNOTES  He is the Counterfeit of God the Father  He is the head of the Satanic Trinity (Rev 12:7) And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, (Rev 12:9) And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

32. NOTESNOTES  The Dragon stands in relationship to the Beast, in the same way that God the Father stands in relationship Jesus Christ his son.  Just as God sent his son into the world. (Joh 3:17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.  The Dragon will send his son into the world but the son of perdition (Joh 17:12) While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

33. NOTESNOTES  Just as God the Father has given all authority on to Jesus Christ his Son. (Mat 28:18) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.  The Dragon will give his power and authority to his son The Beast. (Rev 13:2) And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. (Rev 13:4) And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

34. NOTESNOTES  Just as God the Father has given all authority on to Jesus Christ his Son. (Mat 28:18) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.  The Dragon will give his power and authority to his son The Beast. (Rev 13:2) And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. (Rev 13:4) And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

35. 1. 2.The Second Person of the Satanic Trinity: THE BEAST

36. (Rev 13:1) And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

37. NOTESNOTES  He is the counterfeit of the Son or Christ The second of the Godhead  The Contrast of Jesus and the Anti-Christ Christ: (Joh 6:38) For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. Anti: (Rev 13:1) And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. (Rev 11:7) And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

38. NOTESNOTES Christ: (Joh 5:43) I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. Anti: (Joh 5:43) I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. Christ: (Phi 2:8) And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Anti: (2Th 2:4) Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

39. NOTESNOTES Christ: (Mar 1:24) Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. Anti: (2Th 2:8) And 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: Christ: (1Ti 3:16) And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. Anti: (2Th 2:7) For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

40. NOTESNOTES Christ: (Joh 6:38) For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. Anti: (Dan 11:36) And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.

41. NOTESNOTES Christ: (Isa 53:3) He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Anti: (Rev 13:4) And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? Christ: (Luk 19:10) For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Anti: (Dan 8:24) And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

42. NOTESNOTES Christ: (Phi 2:9) Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Anti: (Rev 19:20) And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

43. 1. 3.The Third Person of the Satanic Trinity: THE FALSE PROPHET

44. (Rev 13:11-15) And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

45. (Rev 11:7) And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

46. NOTESNOTES  He is the counterfeit of the Holy Spirit  Just as the Holy Spirit came into the world to glorify Christ (Joh 16:13) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. (Joh 16:14) He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

47. NOTESNOTES  The False prophet will come into the world to glorify the Anti-Christ (Rev 13:11) And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. (Rev 13:12) And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

48. NOTESNOTES  The Bitter End (Rev 19:20) And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. (Rev 20:10) And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
