Fallen Beings; Drakōn; Satanas; Partners and Apostates

There is one created being that was made with the intent to be a prick or a goad. That one being was designed to sport with the angels. There are other beings that fell after being pricked, goaded, and sported with. We want to understand the one who was created to make others fall, and the ones who fell, but specifically we will look at two individuals. One of the beings who fell was not designed to make others fall. Yet he and his forces do attempt to cause others to rebel from Yahweh. These fallen beings are not necessarily concerned with the humans they entice to become rebellious, but they want what we have instead. The one being who was created to entice others to rebel was created this way to test or prove the sons of God. We see that this being is a marvelous creation, and he is one of a kind. The other beings who fell were enticed to believe that they could rebel from their creator. The creator was not unaware of this potential for rebellion and he already had a plan in place to “prove” the hearts of the fallen ones. We are that plan. 

We will start by looking at our purpose. Paul explains what we were created for by explaining a mystery that was not revealed until after Jesus was crucified. Men were not told of this mystery until the time of Paul’s writing, which is when the apostles and prophets started to share it. You will notice that I have taken out some of Paul’s parenthetical sentences for cohesion. 


Ephesians 3:3 G3754 that G2596 by G602 revelation G1107 he made known G1473 to me G3588 the G3466 mystery G2531 (as G4270 I wrote beforehand G1722 a little, G3641   

  5 G3739 which G1722 unto G2087 other G1074 generations G3756 was not G1107 made known G3588 to the G5207 sons G3588   G444 of men, G5613 as G3568 now G601 it was revealed G3588 to G39 [2holy G652 3apostles G1473 1his] G2532 and G4396 prophets G1722 in G4151 spirit; 

  6 G1510.1 [3to be G3588 1for the G1484 2nations] G4789 joint-heirs, G2532 and G4954 joint-bodies, G2532 and G4830 joint-partners, G3588   G1860 of his promise G1473   G1722 in G3588 the G5547 Christ G1223 through G3588 the G2098 good news, 


The first part of the mystery is that the nations are heirs of the Elohim. Up until this time people believed that only Jews could be heirs of the Elohim. That was not the original plan. The original plan was for all people to come to know the Elohim and Yahweh Elohim through the heirs of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. However, as we will see, there was a created being and fallen beings that intentionally harassed Abraham’s heirs. Paul continues. 


Ephesians 3:9 G2532 and G5461 to enlighten G3956 all G5100 as to what is G3588 the G2842 fellowship G3588 of the G3466 mystery G3588 of the G613 thing being concealed G575 from G3588 the G165 eons G1722 by G3588   G2316 God, G3588 to the one G3588 [2all things G3956   G2936 1having created] G1223 through G* Jesus G5547 Christ, 


The partnership of the concealed mystery, or the communion of the concealed mystery, was from the beginning of the ages. The intent was not for a small group of people to know Yahweh and the Elohim. The intent was for all people to know Yahweh and the Elohim. All people can know Yahweh and the Elohim, and all people can be part of the partnership of Yahweh and the Elohim if they choose. However, by this partnership the principalities and powers in the heavens will be judged and condemned. This was a surprise to the principalities and powers. 


Ephesians 3:10 G2443 that G1107 should be made known G3568 now G3588 to the G746 sovereignties G2532 and G3588 to the G1849 authorities G1722 among G3588 the G2032 heavenlies G1223 through G3588 the G1577 assembly, G3588 the G4182 multifarious G4678 wisdom G3588   G2316 of God, 


The manifold or the much various wisdom, sophia, (insight skill and intelligence) of the Elohim is declared to the principalities and powers through the ekklēsia, the called out. You and I declare the higher intelligence of the Elohim to the principalities and powers who have fallen. We are the announcement. Not just that we are heirs, but that by us or through us they are judged. We are their judges. I Corinthians 6:3.


Ephesians 3:11 G2596 according to G4286 the intention G3588 of the G165 eons, G3739 which G4160 he made G1722 in G5547 Christ G* Jesus G3588   G2962 our Lord; G1473


We are the downward shewbread of the ages. In other words, we humans are the set forth offering exposed before the Elohim. The plan from the beginning of the ages was that humans would be the generation exposed before the Elohim. We would be set forth and whomever would despise us, abuse us, or harm us, would be seen. We are the announcers of their demise because everything the fallen sons of god have invoked on us has been seen. It is not only that we are joint heirs, it is that we are technically the pawns in this chess game that they must give account over. It is not just the Jews who are the bait, it is all the nations who join in the partnership of Christ, all of the called out. We are the ones who prove the manifold wisdom of the Elohim. We are the ones created to trap the fallen beings in their own evil. Their own evil is exposed because we are seen as the purposeful offering. The principalities and powers did not know this or see this plan ahead of time. Their end will be in the lake of fire, after the white throne judgment. The principalities, powers, the kosmokrator (dark ruler of the world), and all spiritual wickedness has not all been judged yet. Very few beings have been punished, only a few are imprisoned in tartarus. These beings have believed that they could steal the creation from the Creator. But once they found out that we are fellow heirs and the offering of shewbread before the Elohim, then they recognized their flawed plans. Their fall was before the creation of manfaced, but their judgment is after the age of manfaced


As we know, the angels or messengers were to be watchers. The nations were set according to the number of the angels of the Elohim.   


Deu 32:8  (Brenton) When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.


Angels are a class of beings. There are many classes of beings recorded in the Bible. A quick look at Revelation 4 exposes many different sons of God. To understand the ones who fell, we should first note that they are from all classes of the sons of God. They all have ranks as well.


https://musingsofawinsomeheart.blogspot.com/2018/12/angels-archangels-sons-of-god-phoenixes.html


Watchers were sent to observe man. Here is the start of the chess match. Job tells us that there are regularly scheduled meetings on the mount of the congregation. Some of the watchers came to earth, took off their habitation and procreated, creating a mess in the days of Noah and after that. These watchers are called Nephil, a feller (Nephilim is plural, fellers). The fallen watchers birthed a mixed race of human DNA and angelic DNA.

When the heirs of the Nephilim died their disembodied spirits had nowhere to go. These are demons who roam the earth seeking a body to inhabit. 


Matthew 12:43 G3752 But whenever G1161   G3588 the G169 unclean G4151 spirit G1831 should go forth G575 from G3588 the G444 man, G1330 it goes G1223 through G504 waterless G5117 places, G2212 seeking G372 rest, G2532 and G3756 does not G2147 find. 

  44 G5119 Then G3004 it says, G1994 I will return G1519 unto G3588   G3624 my house G1473   G3606 from where G1831 I came forth. G2532 And G2064 having come G2147 it finds G4980 relaxing, G4563 being swept, G2532 and G2885 being adorned. 

  45 G5119 Then G4198 it goes G2532 and G3880 takes G3326 with G1438 himself G2033 seven G2087 other G4151 spirits G4190 more wicked G1438 than itself. G2532 And G1525 entering G2730 it dwells G1563 there; G2532 and G1096 becomes G3588 the G2078 last G3588   G444 of that man G1565   G5501 worse G3588 than the G4413 first. G3779 So G1510.8.3 it will be G2532 also G3588 to G1074 [3generation G3778 1this G3588   G4190 2evil]. 


Notice some of the details here. The unclean spirits go through dry places, as compared to indwelling a man who is not dry. Humans have blood and saline. The unclean spirits seek a watery body to rest. Is this why some people are driven to adrenochrome? Does the adrenaline in the blood satisfy their demons? Unclean spirits can search. They know what they are looking for. They think for themselves. They can decide to do something. They go back to the body that they inhabited. They feel. The uninhabited body is relaxing to them, especially when it is cleaned and redecorated. They are social. They gather their friends. Unclean spirits seek, search, think, decide, feel, and socialize. With this in mind, realize that the unclean demonic spirit is a product of fallen beings. While they themselves are evil, making manfaced worse off, they were born into their predicament. They did not choose to be disembodied. Jubilees helps us here. 


Jubilees X.  And in the third week of this jubilee the unclean demons began to lead astray the sons of Noah; and to make to err and destroy them. 2. And the sons of Noah came to Noah their father, and they told him concerning the demons which were, leading astray and blinding and slaying his sons' sons. 3. And he prayed before the Lord his God, and said:

God of the spirits of all flesh, who hast shown mercy unto me,

And hast saved me and my sons from the waters of the flood,

And hast not caused me to perish as Thou didst the sons of perdition; 

For Thy grace hath been great towards me,

And great hath been Thy mercy to my soul;

Let Thy grace be lift up upon my sons,

And let not wicked spirits rule over them

Lest they should destroy them from the earth.

4. But do Thou bless me and my sons, that we may increase and multiply and replenish the earth. 5. And Thou knowest how Thy Watchers, the fathers of these spirits, acted in my day: and as for these spirits which are living, imprison them and hold them fast in the place of condemnation, and let them not bring destruction on the sons of thy servant, my God; for these are malignant, and created in order to destroy. 6. And let them not rule over the spirits of the living; for Thou alone canst exercise dominion over them. And let them not have power over the sons of the righteous from henceforth and for evermore." 

7. And the Lord our God bade us to bind all. 8. And the chief of the spirits, Mastêmâ, came and said: "Lord, Creator, let some of them remain before me, and let them hearken to my voice, and do all that I shall say unto them; for if some of them are not left to me, I shall not be able to execute the power of my will on the sons of men; for these are for corruption and leading astray before my judgment, for great is the wickedness of the sons of men." 9. And He said: "Let the tenth part of them remain before him, and let nine parts descend into the place of condemnation." 10. And one of us He commanded that we should teach Noah all their medicines; for He knew that they would not walk in uprightness, nor strive in righteousness. 11. And we did according to all His words: all the malignant evil ones we bound in the place of condemnation, and a tenth part of them we left that they might be subject before Satan on the earth.


Notice the phrase in verse 3 “sons of perdition” or sons of apōleia, destruction, ruin, or loss. Demons are sons of destruction. The antichrist will also be known as a “son of destruction”. Does this announce his heritage as an heir of the Nephil? Does his heritage provide a gateway for demonic influence?


Jesus had just cast a demon out of someone who was daimonizomai’d (verb), exercised by a demon, being blind and mute. Jesus explains how demons behave, and attributes the evil generation to be worse off, as if more demons entered into them. As I pointed out last week, the demons witness and attest to who Jesus really is. While demons can be directed, they are not the fallen ones, they are victims of their fallen fathers, and they are now the tools of the fallen ones. If the fallen sons of God can carry out their plan to take over the world then they will have a place for their disembodied heirs. 


Looking at the one who was created as a prick and the one who deceives the entire inhabitable world, the dragon and the satan go by many names. The dragon is also know as Drakōn or draco. The satan is known as Satanas, Satanail, or as Mastêmâ. However, it is important for us to note  the components of speech. The word diabolos is an adjective. An adjective describes a noun and it can sometimes replace a noun. The word diabolos can be used for anyone, the devil, the satan, a mean person, or someone who slanders.

διάβολος 

diabolos dee-ab'-ol-os From G1225; a traducer; specifically Satan (compare [H7854]) KJV Usage: false accuser, devil, slanderer.


To make sense of this word as an adjective, we understand that anyone can be a slanderer, false accuser, a backbiter, or a being that intentionally wants to harm someone. Anyone can be a diabolos. The devil can be a diabolos. The satan can be a diabolos. A person can be a diabolos. This word is not really a proper name, but can be if it is used as slang for a person with these qualities. The Hebrew confuses diabolos as a satan.

If we look at the paleo Hebrew we see three letters that tell a story. 


H7854 satan or adversary = Sin/Thorn+Tet/Basket+Nun/Seed 


The diabolos or a satan is hate, surrounded, and is an heir, or a son. A satan is an heir, surrounded by hate, or a son who contains hate. Because of the seed, we recognize that these are beings who are sons or heirs. However, they are a basket of thorns. This is an adversary or The Adversary. There are many sons of God, and some have fallen or rejected their Elohim. Now they are like a basket of thorns or they contain hate. These created beings have become different than when they were first created. 


The dragon is a created being and he has a specific purpose. The dragon was created to sport with the angels. We also know him as the devil. This being is a magnificent creation, but he was created to prick and goad other beings. There is only one of his kind. When Job was speaking to his friends, he mistakenly believed that the dragon had already been slain. This is Job’s problem. He does not realize that the dragon is still a being that has to be reckoned with. Therefore, Yahweh takes two chapters to explain the dragon’s position.


Job 26:13  And the barriers of heaven fear him, and by a command he has slain the apostate dragon.

Job 40:14  This is the chief of the creation of the Lord; made to be played with by his angels.

Job 41:24  There is nothing upon the earth like to him, formed to be sported with by my angels.

Thayer:

1) a dragon, a great serpent, a name for Satan


δράκων 

drakōn drak'-own Probably from an alternate form of δέρκομαι derkomai (to look); a fabulous kind of serpent (perhaps as supposed to fascinate)

KJV Usage: dragon.


We can see the confusion within the definitions. This being is a one of a kind being, and he is Drakōn or draco. He is an αποστατην or apostátin, an apostate, or defector. The word defector is the same as divorce. We could say that the Drakōn divorced himself from Yahweh. He is a satan, diabolos, but not the satan. A dragon is different than an incorporeal being.

BDB Definition:

1) dragon, serpent, sea monster

1a) dragon or dinosaur

Part of Speech: noun masculine

A Related Word by BDB/Strong’s Number: intensive from the same as H8565


H8577 H8565 Dragon= Taw/Crossed sticks+Nun/Seed 


The dragon is a son or heir, and a mark, sign, or signal. Taw (Hebrew) is a cross, but it is also a sign or monument. If we notice the star picture of Draco, it is a large symbol in the heavens. Again, the dragon is a created being, and he too is a son or an heir. If we recognize the idea that he was in fact created this way, then we then realize that he is a son. I realize that this is an uncomfortable thought, but this dragon left his purpose which was to sport with the angels, in order to attempt to rule his own world. Solomon says something interesting. 


Wis 2:23  For God created man to be immortal, and made him to be an image of his own eternity.

Wis 2:24  Nevertheless through envy of the devil came death into the world: and they that do hold of his side do find it.


Men were created to be immortal and in the image of the Elohim’s eternity. In other words, manfaced was made in the image of the Elohim, and to live eternally like the Elohim. That is apparently a different order than other sons of the Elohim. So Drakōn was envious. Drakōn and Satanas devised a plan to cause the adam to turn away from Yahweh. Those humans who hold onto Drakōn’s side will find death.

Satanas sat-an-as' Of Chaldee origin corresponding to G4566 (with the definite article affixed); the accuser, that is, the devil KJV Usage: Satan.


Satan, Satanas, Satanail, or Sotona, is a proper name of another created being. We have conflated Drakōn and Satanas. We have misunderstood the words and then made them the same when they are not. The English translators became confused because they relied on the Masoretic text which intentionally confused the understanding of the dragon and the satan.

H4566, H5647, and 5648 adversary satan = Ghah/Eye+Bet/Tent floorplan + Dal/door 


The Satan is a watcher of homes and doors. The satan, Satanas is a watcher who knows the entrances of family. The watchers were servants. This shows us that it was not only angels that were watchers, but incorporeals were also watchers. The satan is also known as Sotona or Satanail. Enoch informs us of the plan of the devil and how he changed Sotona.

The Secrets of Enoch 31:1 ADAM has life on earth, and I created a garden in Eden in the east, that he should observe the testament and keep the command.

2 I made the heavens open to him, that he should see the angels singing the song of victory, and the gloomless light.

3 And he was continuously in paradise, and the devil understood that I wanted to create another world, because Adam was lord on earth, to rule and control it.

4 The devil is the evil spirit of the lower places, as a fugitive he made Sotona from the heavens as his name was Satanail, thus he became different from the angels, but his nature did not change his intelligence as far as his understanding of righteous and sinful things.

5 And he understood his condemnation and the sin which he had sinned before, therefore he conceived thought against Adam, in such form he entered and seduced Eva, but did not touch Adam.

6 But I cursed ignorance, but what I had blessed previously, those I did not curse, I cursed not man, nor the earth, nor other creatures, but man's evil fruit, and his works.


If we understand that there were no vowels in Hebrew then we can see that Sotona is Satana. He is an incorporeal being, air, aether, fire, and light. He also had a regiment of angels under his authority.


Secrets of Enoch 29:1 AND for all the heavenly troops I imaged the image and essence of fire, and my eye looked at the very hard, firm rock, and from the gleam of my eye the lightning received its wonderful nature, which is both fire in water and water in fire, and one does not put out the other, nor does the one dry up the other, therefore the lightning is brighter than the sun, softer than water and firmer than hard rock.

2 And from the rock I cut off a great fire, and from the fire I created the orders of the incorporeal ten troops of angels, and their weapons are fiery and their raiment a burning flame, and I commanded that each one should stand in his order. Here Satanail with his angels was thrown down from the height.

3 And one from out the order of angels, having turned away with the order that was under him, conceived an impossible thought, to place his throne higher than the clouds above the earth, that he might become equal in rank to my power.

4 And I threw him out from the height with his angels, and he was flying in the air continuously above the bottomless.


Now we see that Satanas/Satanail, one of the incorporeal angels, wanted to put his own throne in the mount of the congregation in the sides of the north. Satanas/Satanail was not a Cherub, he was created with or in consecutive order following the Cherub. We have also misunderstood the word lucifer and the translation should have read; “Evening star rising in the morning”.  This is actually referring to Venus; “lucifer” is not a who, but a what. The evening star is Hesperus. There are seemingly intelligent people who believe that lucifer was a name of the satan, Satanail, but it is not. Some people have made an entire religion out of lucifer, pretending that he is the brother of Jesus. Impossible. The created being is not a brother of the Creator. Satanail had a division of angels under him. They were all thrown out of the heights of heaven. They weren’t the same as the angels who brought their regiments to earth in the days of Noah because those leaders were imprisoned.

Paul clarifies that Satanas is able to change his appearance. He can look like an angel of light. Why? Because it s the way that he was created. 


2 Corinthians 11:14 G2532 For G3756 it is not G2298 surprising G1473 [3himself G1063 1for G3588   G4567 2Satan] G3345 to change appearance G1519 into G32 an angel G5457 of light.


As we see, Drakōn pricked, goaded, sported, and eventually grafted himself into other beings. Drakōn is an apostate. The other beings, Satanas and his angels, rebelled from Yahweh into partnership with Drakōn. The plan was to cause as many other spiritual beings to fall as they could. Then the adam was created. Satanas conceived a plan to send a serpent, Gadreel, to entice Eve.

Drakōn and Satanas both have an end, although Satanas comes to his end later than Drakōn. John explains, in a round about way, what the seven thunders said. They are announcing the casting out of one third of the angels and the devil/Drakōn, and the satan. There are probably specific words that the seven thunders are using and that John is not allowed to tell us the exact words, so instead he tells us a story about what is happening.


Revelation12:3 G2532 And G3708 appeared G243 another G4592 sign G1722 in G3588 the G3772 heaven. G2532 And G2400 behold, G1404 [3dragon G3173 1 there was a great G4450 2fiery] G2192 having G2776 [2heads G2033 1seven], G2532 and G2768 [2horns G1176 1ten]; G2532 and G1909 upon G3588   G2776 his heads G1473   G2033 seven G1238 diadems. 

  4 G2532 And G3588   G3769 his tail G1473   G4951 drags G3588 the G5154 third G3588 of the G792 stars G3588 of the G3772 heaven, G2532 and G906 he casts G1473 them G1519 to G3588 the G1093 earth…


Who drags one third of the stars? Drakōn. Stars are angels. Drakōn has command of the kingdoms of the earth, as we see the seven heads and the ten horns later. As John continues, Michael wages war with Drakōn.


Revelation 12:7 G2532 And G1096 there was G4171 war G1722 in G3588 the G3772 heaven; G3588   G* Michael G2532 and G3588   G32 his angels G1473   G3588   G4170 to wage war G3326 with G3588 the G1404 dragon, G2532 and G3588 the G1404 dragon G4170 waged war G2532 and G3588   G32 his angels; G1473   

  8 G2532 and G3756 it did not G2480 prevail, G3777 nor G5117 was a place G2147 found G1473 for him G2089 any longer G1722 in G3588 the G3772 heaven. 

  9 G2532 And G906 [4was cast out G3588 1the G1404 3dragon G3588   G3173 2great], G3588 the G3789 [2serpent G3588   G744 1ancient], G3588 the one G2564 being called G1228 the devil G2532 and G4567 Satan; G3588 the one G4105 misleading G3588 the G3611 [2inhabitable world G3650 1entire] G906 was cast G1519 unto G3588 the G1093 earth, G2532 and G3588   G32 his angels G1473   G3326 [2with G1473 3him G906 1were cast]. 


Drakōn is cast out of the heavens with his angels. Drakōn is called the ancient serpent and also called the devil. Then we see that the satan is also cast out. The satan, Satanas, is the one who is misleading the entire inhabitable world. John writes this again, later. 


Revelation 20:2 G2532 And G2902 he seized G3588 the G1404 dragon, G3588 the G3789 [2serpent G3588   G744 1ancient], G3739 who G1510.2.3 is G1228 the devil, G2532 and G3588   G4567 Satan, G3588 the one G4105 misleading G3588 the G3611 [2inhabitable world G3650 1entire]. G2532 And G1210 he bound G1473 him them G5507 a thousand G2094 years. 

  3 G2532 And G906 he cast G1473 him them G1519 into G3588 the G12 abyss, G2532 and G2808 locked, G2532 and G4972 set a seal G1883 upon G1473 him, them G2443 that G3361 he should not mislead G4105   G2089 [3any more G3588 1the G1484 2nations] G891 until G5055 [4be fulfilled G3588 1the G5507 2thousand G2094 3years]. G2532 And G3326 after G3778 these things G1163 it is necessary G1473 to loose him G3089   G3397 a little G5550 time. 


We see two beings seized, the ancient serpent Drakōn and the one who misleads the inhabitable world Satanas. Now we see who is loosed from the prison. 


Revelation 20:7 G2532 And G3752 whenever G5055 [4should be fulfilled G3588 1the G5507 2thousand G2094 3years], G3089 [2shall be loosed G3588   G4567 1Satan] G1537 from out of G3588   G5438 his prison, G1473

8 G2532 and G1831 shall come forth G4105 to mislead G3588 the G1484 nations, G3588 the ones G1722 in G3588 the G5064 four G1137 corners G3588 of the G1093 earth -- G3588   G* Gog G2532 and G3588   G* Magog, G4863 to gather them together G1473   G1519 for G3588 the G4171 war, G3739 which G3588 the G706 number G5613 is as G3588 the G285 sand G3588 of the G2281 sea. 


Satanas is loosed after the one thousand years to go out and deceive the nations in the millennial kingdom. This being was not created to be a goad or a prick, or to sport with angels, but he became a deceiver of humans. Satanas is the one who instigates the Gog and Magog war. When does the Gog and Magog war take place? After the one thousand year millennial reign. Satanas will have his last chance to gather as many humans as he can to attempt to subvert Jesus Christ. We know that he will not succeed. 


Revelation 12:10 G2532 And G191 I heard G5456 [2voice G3173 1a great] G1722 in G3588 the G3772 heaven, G3004 saying, G737 Now G1096 is come G3588 the G4991 deliverance, G2532 and G3588 the G1411 power, G2532 and G3588 the G932 kingdom G3588   G2316 of our God, G1473   G2532 and G3588 the G1849 authority G3588   G5547 of his Christ; G3754 for G2598 [4was cast down G3588 1the G2725 2accuser G3588   G80 3of our brethren], G1473   G3588 the one G2723 accusing G1473 them G1799 before G3588   G2316 our God G1473   G2250 day G2532 and G3571 night. 


The word for accuser is katēgoros, from kata, downward, and agora, more properly ageiro, a gathering place. The agora was a marketplace. An accuser is someone who brings a downward public charge. This is what the satan does in the courts of heaven. Has he stopped accusing us? No, not yet. The accuser has not been cast down from the heavens. However, the plan that Yahweh put in place for humanity embarrassed the principalities and powers because they could not kill him. He rose up the third day. 


Colosians 2:15 G554 having divested G3588 the G746 sovereignties G2532 and G3588 the G1849 authorities, G1165 he made an example G1722 in G3954 an open manner G2358 triumphing over G1473 them G1722 by G1473 it. 


Once again, to the foolish people who worship fallen beings that they know nothing about, our creator Yahweh came to earth. 


Colosians 1:16 G3754 for G1722 in G1473 him G2936 were created G3588 the whole, G3956   G3588 the things G1722 in G3588 the G3772 heavens, G2532 and G3588 the things G1909 upon G3588 the G1093 earth -- G3588 the G3707 visible G2532 and G3588 the G517 unseen; G1535 whether G2362 thrones, G1535 whether G2963 lordships, G1535 whether G746 sovereignties, G1535 whether G1849 authorities; G3588 the whole G3956   G1223 through G1473 him G2532 and G1519 in G1473 him G2936 have been created. 

  17 G2532 And G1473 he G1510.2.3 is G4253 before G3956 all, G2532 and G3588 the whole G3956   G1722 in G1473 him G4921 combine. 

  18 G2532 And G1473 he G1510.2.3 is G3588 the G2776 head G3588 of the G4983 body G3588 of the G1577 assembly, G3739 who G1510.2.3 is G746 the beginning, G4416 the first-born G1537 from G3588 the G3498 dead, G2443 that G1096 [2should be G1722 4in G3956 5all things G1473 1he G4409 3preeminent]. 


The ultimate checkmate was when Jesus took back the keys to hell and death and rose up. Drakōn and Satanas thought that Jesus coming to earth to show himself so that people would believe on him was the entire plan. They didn’t realize that they could not kill him. They did not realize that those who believe on Jesus, and believe that he rose on the third day, would be like the Elohim and live eternally. Drakōn and Satanas and his regiment of fallen angels were not the only fallen beings that Yahweh outsmarted. There were/are others. Enough fallen beings still exist that there will be one third cast out of the heavens. If we understand that Drakōn became an apostate who has not yet been destroyed, we can understand that we are living in the time before their destruction. Drakōn pricked and goaded Satanas until he became an apostate. Satanas pricked, goaded, and enticed his regiments until they became apostates. Once a son of God divorces himself fromYahweh, there is nothing left for them but the lake of fire. We will explore a few more fallen beings next week.
