45. REVELATION 12 Mindset 1: The Case For Fear

46. SATAN SPARES NO ONE HIS WRATH
He’s determined to do his very worst to disrupt God’s
stated intentions to save Israel, preserve the saints
and redeem the earth from the curse and its tyrant.

47. SATAN SPARES NO ONE HIS WRATH
He’s determined to do his very worst to disrupt God’s
stated intentions to save Israel, preserve the saints
and redeem the earth from the curse and its tyrant. Aware of His Crisis: 12:12 tells us that Satan,
thrown from heaven, knows his time is short! Satan
proceeds without hesitation to destroy God’s plan.
1260 days left
42 months left
Time, times and half a time left
Full of Wrath: 12:12 again. Satan unleashes his
aggression and wrath, holding nothing back.

48. SATAN SPARES NO ONE HIS WRATH:
He’s determined to do his very worst to disrupt God’s
stated intentions to save Israel, preserve the saints
and redeem the earth from the curse and its tyrant.

49. SATAN SPARES NO ONE HIS WRATH:
He’s determined to do his very worst to disrupt God’s
stated intentions to save Israel, preserve the saints
and redeem the earth from the curse and its tyrant. Flexible Strategist 12:13-17 Satan engages
targets of opportunity in quick succession, never
lingering too long over any setbacks
The Woman-Israel
The Man Child-Christ, Church or 144K
The Saints
Clever Administrator: 13:2 Satan delegates
authority and power to the Beast/AntiChrist.
Mimics Christ’s incarnation

50. SATAN SPARES NO ONE HIS WRATH:
He’s determined to do his very worst to disrupt God’s
stated intentions to save Israel, preserve the saints
and redeem the earth from the curse and its tyrant.

51. SATAN SPARES NO ONE HIS WRATH:
He’s determined to do his very worst to disrupt God’s
stated intentions to save Israel, preserve the saints
and redeem the earth from the curse and its tyrant. Powerful Adversary 12:13-17 Satan resurrects
the dead man who will be the Beast, grants power to
perform miracles.
Focuses on the Saints 13:7 Satan’s war on the
saints succeeds on many physical and political
levels-Bible says AntiChrist will ‘overcome’ them!

52. REVELATION 12 Mindset 2: The Case For Hope and Courage

53. SATAN’S FAILURE ASSURED
For all his great power, fierce determination and
cruelty, Satan fails on virtually every front.

54. SATAN’S FAILURE ASSURED
For all his great power, fierce determination and
cruelty, Satan fails on virtually every front. Fails in History: 12:1-6
Falls from heaven (vs 4) long ago-loses
citizenship, as it were.
Cannot disrupt Christ’s ministry
Fails in Heaven 12:7-14 His assault on heaven in
the end times fails when Michael defeats him and
throws him to earth-never to ‘visit’ heaven in any
capacity again.

55. SATAN’S FAILURE ASSURED
For all his great power, fierce determination and
cruelty, Satan fails on virtually every front.

56. SATAN’S FAILURE ASSURED
For all his great power, fierce determination and
cruelty, Satan fails on virtually every front. Overdriven by Time Constraints: 12:1-6 Satan
knows his time is short, his doom all but sealed.
Hate drives him and blinds him at the same time.
He behaves desperately, loses knack for subtlety
and tries to bull his way to victory.
Fails Against the Church 12:11 The brethren
overcome him by the blood of the Lamb, the word
of their testimony and they did not love their life
even when faced with death!

57. SATAN’S FAILURE ASSURED
For all his great power, fierce determination and
cruelty, Satan fails on virtually every front.

58. SATAN’S FAILURE ASSURED
For all his great power, fierce determination and
cruelty, Satan fails on virtually every front. Fails Against 70th Week Israel: 12:14-16 When
cast to earth by Michael, Satan pursues The
Woman. God supernaturally protects this remnant
(in Edom?).
Fails to God-proof His Own Kingdom God
bruises and strikes Satan’s Kingdom throughout the
deployment of the Seals, Trumpets and Bowls. God
demonstrates His omnipotence in plague after
brutal plague and Satan can do nothing to prevent
Him!
