Summary: The Bible tells us about Satan’s fate in Genesis and through the ancient prophets and the apostles. God assures us that Satan and evil will be defeated.

Satan's Fate

1. Bruised

a. After the serpent deceived Eve in the Garden of Eden, the Lord God said to the him, “Because you have done this, you are cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field. You will go on your belly, and you will eat dust all the days of your life: And I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. Her seed will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:14-15

b. Paul wrote, “The God of peace will bruise Satan under your feet shortly.” Romans 6:20

2. The Unholy Trinity of Revelation

a. The Dragon – Satan

There was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and his angels. The dragon and his angels lost the battle. The great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which now deceives the whole world. He was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. The dragon’s tail drew the third part of the stars (angels) of heaven and cast them to the earth. Their place in heaven was found no more. Revelation 12:4,7-9

Revelation 12 connects

— The dragon who battled with Michael the archangel, was defeated and was cast out of Heaven

— The serpent in the garden Genesis 3

— The Devil

— Satan who deceives the whole world

— The dragon of the end times

They are all one.

b. The Beast from the Sea – Anti-Christ

— Ten horns, ten crowns and seven heads.

— The whole earth worshipped the beast and the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast.

— The beast made war on the saints and conquered them.

— Everyone, whose name is not written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, will worship it

Highlights of Revelation 13:1-10 (Read for further details)

We see this beast again in Chapter 17, carrying the drunken woman Babylon.

c. The Beast From the Earth – The False Prophet

— It speaks like the dragon and exercises all the power of the first beast

— It causes the people worship the first beast.

— It has power to perform great signs and miracles in the sight of the first beast.

— It deceives the people, telling them to make an image for the beast.

— Those who won’t worship the image are slain.

— It causes all to be marked with the name or number 666

— No one can buy or sell unless he has the mark

Highlights of Revelation 13:11-18 (Read for further details)

3. Defeated

a. The ten horns of the beast from the sea are ten kings, who have no kingdom; but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour. These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.

These will war against the Lamb. The Lamb will overcome them, because he is Lord of lords and King of kings. Those who are called and chosen and faithful are with him, and they will also overcome. Revelation 17:12-14

And I saw the heaven opened; and behold, a white horse,

and he that sat on it was called Faithful and True;

and in righteousness he judges and makes war.

His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns;

and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood:

and his name is called The Word of God.

The armies that were in heaven followed him on white horses,

clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations:

He shall rule them with a rod of iron:

He treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

And he has on his clothing and on his thigh a name written,

KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. Revelation 19:11-16

And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat upon the horse, and against his army. Revelation 19:19

The Lord will consume that Wicked One with the spirit of his mouth and will destroy him with the brightness of his coming. 2 Thessalonians 2:8

And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying. Now is salvation come, and strength and the kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ, for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death… I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may see you. Ezekiel 28:16-17
