Revelation 12:9Radiate New TestamentThe great dragon was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. That dragon is the old serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. See the chapter |
But the beast was captured, along with the false prophet who’d done signs for the beast. With those signs the false prophet had deceived those who’d received the mark of the beast and worshiped its statue. The beast and the false prophet were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.
The first beast had given the second beast the power to perform these signs, and by these signs, the second beast tricked those who live on the earth. The second beast ordered people to set up a statue to honor the first beast. The first beast was the one who’d been wounded by a sword but had survived.
