The King of the Bottomless Pit (Part 3)

Satan is the king of the Bottomless Pit, and ascends out of it in two places in the Book of Revelation, chapter 11:7 and 17:8.  This episode of focuses upon Revelation 17.  Talking about the Antichrist who is called the Beast in this chapter, verse 8 states,  "The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.” So, the Devil works effectively in the lives of lost people, as it also teaches in 2 Thessalonians 2:7-10.  Here the Antichrist is called "That Wicked" in verse eight.  Verses 7-10 says,  "For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 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: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”  This episode helps a person see the working of Satan in the lives of unsaved people.
