| Back To Top | Black Reverend defends Whites, warns of Black hatred of Whites (Sean Hannity video). Also, Oprah Winfrey's Racist comments, and Oprah publicly denounces Christianity
A reader writes:
Answer: Hello, sorry to be so far behind in answering questions. (The video is supplied below) Your below (4:52 Min) video is of the (Black) Professor from North Carolina State University, Kamau Kambon's, speech calling for the extermination of all White people. The professor gave this speech at the university and it was carried on C-SPAN. And (the Black) Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson explains it all in a Hannity and Colmes television interview. The Reverend explains that the mood behind this Racist Black speech is more common among Blacks than many would think, citing examples among prominent Black leaders (who naturally get away with it scot-free, because the Judaic-controlled media refuses to focus any light on it. Or better said, the Judaic-controlled media blacks it out (censors it, kills the story, etc.). You see, "they" know what's best for us to see and what is best for us to get upset about. "They" control what we learn and know and see. "They" are our masters, but we can't talk about that—it is forbidden for us to talk about "them." Then we see the International Judaic's front-men (Hannity & Colmes) trying to minimize what was said; and they go into the common tactic of, "Well, not ALL X's are like this X, therefore, what this X said/did is immaterial." This is a common tactic when forgiving the crimes and errs of Blacks and Judaics and Gays, etc., but that which is NEVER afforded to Whites, or Police, or Christian Clergy, Abortion Protestors, etc.—basically anyone who is a stabilizing and decent factor in American society is treated with unbalanced hostility. And while it could be expected from the Judaic Alan Colmes, it was interesting to see the Irish so-called patriot and tough stick-up-for-what's-right fair guy, Sean Hannity, almost outright defend this anti-White and genocidal hate speech by the Black Professor. This is the fingerprint of Sean's masters. I wonder how Sean Hannity and Alan Colmes would have handled this if a White university Professor had publicly called for the extermination of all Black people? Or, better stated, I wonder how the International Judaic Media lords would have had Sean Hannity and Alan Colmes "have their opinion" on it? Race-baiting And understand that the International Judaics know more than most (almost all!) "White" people that the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian and kindred peoples are true Israel and that the so-called Jews of today are Turko-Mongoloid Khazars who, before being converted to Judaism in the circa A.D. 700's, were Phallic Worshippers (worshippers of the male 'regenerative organ' [really! See Jewish author's quote in panel at below right]). So much for the "God's Chosen People" myth.
So when the International Judaics motivate Blacks to kill Whites, and when they turn the Hispanic/Latinos against the Whites, and when they pit the Arabs against the Whites, what they are really trying to do is to have true Israel killed-off so that they, the Judaics, can usurp their place as "God's Chosen People." This isn't about skin color or race, the international Judaics couldn't care less for the welfare or equal treatment of Blacks, Latinos, or even for Jews, for that matter. They have only one enemy—God's Chosen People, Israel—true Israel, that is. They only use the other races, and the specter of "White Racism" to get them to do their dirty work, because the International Judaics are a small people. So this isn't about "Racism" per se, it is Biblical, it is about birthright, it is about the oldest battle in the world, the battle that started when Cain slew Able. Cain's are still trying to slay Able's to this very day, and in the Tribulation the Cain's shall have much more power to do so. You know them as Kenites, I speak of them as International Judaics. No, not all people who fancy themselves to be "Jews" are International Judaics—they are an entirely different bloodline, as Benjamin Freedman explained briefly in the quote at above right. The "Jews" are Gentiles from Khazaria, the International Judaics are children (literally) of Cain, whose father was (literally) the serpent in the Garden of Eden, that is to say, satan himself (if this sounds remarkable to you, as I know that your pastor would never dare tell you it, see our: What was the Real sin in the garden of Eden?). That is what this is all about. The darker of the Gentile races are simply being used as pawns by the International Judaics against the true Israel peoples. God sees. The International Judaics also use "common everyday Jews" (Khazars) as a front group. By Persecuting and harassing "Jews" all down through the ages, the International Judaics have been able to then hide among them claiming victim and protection status. The International Judaics financed Adolph Hitler. And they refused immigration of "Jews" out of WWII Europe to safety. Any "Jew" worth his salt ought to know that. For the Jewish truth-seeker, see the Jewish Website where you will learn about your real enemies (hint: it isn't hillbillies and Idahoans), http://www.jewsnotzionists.org But why did the International Judaics persecute their, what they call, their lesser brethren during WWII? It was (and is) because they needed victim/protection status, and without victimization there could be no protected-person status. To claim victimization status you must first become a victim. In other words, "lesser brethren" Jews had to suffer to protect the International Judaics. And if "Jews" weren't a protected people then the world would have long ago slapped them down for committing genocide on the indigenous Palestinian peoples whose land they stole by rape, plunder, and murder in 1948 (from Britain; i.e., true Israel peoples who had the mandate over Palestine). You know, if Jewish writers would speak about this, then I wouldn't have to. It is so much easier for someone of Jewish decent to speak about Jews than it is for a non-Jew like myself. But if they aren't going to clean their own house than we shall have to step up and speak on it. Same thing for the Black community, they cry about Racism all the time when they can get their hands on a story of a White offender; but then when a Black does the same (or worse) Racist act the Blacks forget how to talk. That's wrong, and it is intellectually dishonest. So we shall shed some light on their dirty house as well, until enough of them can place their hatred and indifference for the welfare of Whites on the back burner long enough to take their own people to task when they fall. Back to the video Alan Colmes is a Zionist Judaic, Sean Hannity is a "Gentile" Useful Idiot, both working for the International Judaic media-lords. They are both employed because they do and appear to think exactly as they are told to act and think. They are intellectual prostitutes. And notice that while "Jews" were not the target of this, and nothing anti-Jewish was said in the Professor's speech, they had to be sure to get in the "AntiSemitism" boogey man to ensure that we remain brainwashed to the imaginary (and quite opposite) plight of the so-called Jews today. Hats-off to the Black Reverend, Jesse Lee Peterson, who was the only voice of reason in this whole interview. Observe the double standard, and also learn that there is an enemy out there who wants you dead—then quit defending your enemies; for, all who do so end up dead. (4:52 Min. long) Thank you reader for sending us the above video link. And below is a video of what was happening while sleepy Whites were falling all over themselves trying to prove to everybody that "they aren't Racist." And yes, I am aware of the nature of the organization (Storm Front) that made the below video. But who else would have had the guts? I present the video for its internal content and to show that there is an underlying driving force (the International Judaics through Grant$ monie$, blind-donation$, etc.) that is creating anti-White hatred and preparing the darker races to unite and rise up in genocide against Whites. This happened in Haiti a couple of hundred years ago, so do not think that "they" haven't inspired this form of Revolution before. Of course, then, we will be just begging for Martial Law like many Constitutionally-unaware Americans did during the Hurricane Katrina experiment. Black and Brown: The Future of America ( 3:18 Min. long.) Now I have one for you on the pied-piper of stupid White suburban women*, most of whom couldn't care less that Oprah is not a Christian, but is rather a New-Ager (Luciferian). I single out "White" Suburban women because the greatest majority of Oprah's supporters are middle class White women, and because in the below video they shall see that Oprah has been using them and has disdain and "it's pay-back time" for them in her heart. As do, unfortunately, the majority of Black people in general. Not a popular thing to say, but true nonetheless. If you don't see it, it is because you aren't looking, or that you have been trained not to notice nor care. The whole Affirmative Action, Welfare, and Set-Asides programs are based on an underlying "pay-back time" mentality. You might not be giving the money and jobs in that spirit, but that is how it is being accepted.
Below, Oprah shows us an unguarded behind-the-scenes look at how she really feels about Whites. And don't fail to notice Oprah's fake "African accent" later in the video as she addresses her Black students in Africa. To the exclusion of all White South Africa students, I might add; and males of both races are excluded—that makes Oprah a Racist Feminist. And someday she will come out of the closet as a Lesbian, as well. (Google "oprah lesbian") So that we will see "Americas Heroine" in all her Racist, Lesbian, Feminist, (and un-Christian) glory—a true New-Age, International Judaic-modeled, New World Order hero to lead women in the NWO new reality). Oprah is a fake, a scam-artist, through and through; and Christian women ought not be exposing themselves and their daughters to this indoctrination and morals-numbing front-woman. Oprah Winfrey's Racist Comments (1:11 Min. long) Can you just imagine the outcry if Rush Limbaugh were to mock Blacks the way Oprah mocked her White employees, and was to talk on his show about all the "good Black folks" working "under" him, and mockingly imitating a Black man saying "I'm, a good Black folk"? You know darn well that it would be at the top of the Judaic-controlled nightly news twenty times a day—and from the small neighborhood newspapers to CNN—until Limbaugh had to go the way of Don Imus, when Imus made the fatal mistake of jokingly referring to some Black women during a gag as "nappy headed ho's." It seems that the "N-word" taboo is no longer the only White-forbidden speech. Don Imus lost his entire career because of uttering those three words and is black-listed in all Judaic-controlled media, that is to say all media. So much for the First Amendment of the United States Constitution! If it was the other way around, and a Black radioman made an unwelcome comment, all (White & Black) would simply say: "Well, if you are offended then you can always turn the radio dial." Oprah's Religion And because so many women virtually worship Oprah Winfrey, We offer the below video which shows Oprah denying the main Christian tenet, that being: "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. " (John 14:6), and: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;" (1 Tim 2:5). So, if Oprah is not saved (you do realize the enormity of what that means for Oprah, don't you?), then why do so many Christian women hang on her every word for an hour a day, five days a week? What is happening is that they are being deluded. From a concerned Christian group we quote the following:
And by supporting her program through their viewer-ship, making her so popular, and creating an unstoppable show because of the high advertising fees that she draws because of that great viewer-ship, they are partaking in Oprah's evil deeds as she deludes millions of impressionable young women away from Christianity into New Age Luciferian doctrine and other immoral behaviors.

You asked:
"Then when Satan is loosed, after the thousand years he will deceive the nations again . Is Satan deceiving the saved, spirit body people that had reigned with Christ.? People choose Satan after raining with Christ? I'm confused. When Christ is here during this time isn't it heaven? I guess what I'm trying to ask is who does Satan deceive after the thousand years."
Briefly (and I must speed this up at this point), those who follow satan at the end of the Millennium are the damned. They were resurrected for this final moment, to seal their fate, and to make satan's final assault on God's children. These are they "But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished" (Rev 20:5a), who join their master "And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison" (Rev 20:7), for the final battle "And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them." (Rev 20:9).
God destroys them just prior to Judgment Day. They may be the inhabitants of "death and hell" which are committed lock stock and barrel into the Lake of Fire at Judgment day. We may not even see them at Judgment Day; God knows.
Rev 20:14-15
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. KJV
Understanding the following will remove much difficulty in the study of Revelation chapter twenty: There are more than one resurrection, there are at least three, possibly more; which matter I spoke on in more depth in the aforementioned Ezekiel Q & A.
And also key to understanding is this: "Resurrection" is not to mean "everlasting life in Heaven with God"; for, even Daniel, so many years ago, told us that some are resurrected to eternal life in Heaven with God, but that some are resurrected merely to be sentenced to death, eternal death, in the Lake of Fire; which place "we" often confuse "hell" with, and make what is to happen in the Lake of Fire into what our conception of "hell" is.
Dan 12:2
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth [die] shall awake [Resurrect], some to everlasting life, and some [shall Resurrect] to shame and everlasting contempt. KJV
The final end of sinful man is the Lake of Fire, not "hell." For even "hell" must submit to the eternal destruction of the Lake of Fire. "Hell" is the grave, the place of the dead ones, but the Lake of Fire is God's apparatus for destroying the immortal soul of man. This only God can destroy, for it is He alone who had the power to create it from nothing. And to nothing it shall return. The body of a dead man returns to the dust with which it was formed, but the soul of a damned person returns to the nothing which it became from. This is the first and second deaths spoken of in the Bible. And it speaks of the very core of our being. No deeper are we allowed to see than this, I trust.
One more thing that may help to understand the Millennium matter: The word "deceive" in our below Scripture is often taken by us to simply mean "trick, seduce, cause to error", and it is all those things; however, the word actually has a deeper meaning, it can mean to lead an already deluded one into mischief.
I make mention of this because many read the below Scripture and suppose that satan is going to be changing minds at the end of the Millennium, turning saved Christians into damned followers of satan. He is not, he is leading the godless troop into attacking God's holy city and His saints (us). Prooftext for this would be the words two verses up from the below Scripture where we read "This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power" (Rev 20:5b-6a). Therefore, it is not possible that these apostatize away from God and into following satan, for they are already promised eternal life BEFORE satan returns to do his evil final act.
Therefore, these in the below Scripture who join and follow satan are necessarily those of another resurrection, perhaps being among those spoken of by Daniel: "and some [shall Resurrect] to shame and everlasting contempt" (Dan 12:2b), contrasted with the since-deceased ones who shall enjoy eternal Heaven: "And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth [die] shall awake [Resurrect], some to everlasting life" (Dan 12:2a).
The Scripture in question
Rev 20:7-8
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. KJV
deceive: Greek word #4105 planao (plan-ah'-o); from NT:4106; to (properly, cause to) roam (from safety, truth, or virtue): KJV - go astray, deceive, err, seduce, wander, be out of the way.
NT:4106 plane (plan'-ay); feminine of NT:4108 (as abstractly); objectively, fraudulence; subjectively, a straying from orthodoxy or piety: KJV - deceit, to deceive, delusion, error.
NT:4108 planos (plan'-os); of uncertain affinity; roving (as a tramp), i.e. (by implication) an impostor or misleader; KJV - deceiver, seducing.
to gather together: Greek word #4863 sunago (soon-ag'-o); from NT:4862 and NT:71; to lead together, i.e. collect or convene; specifically, to entertain (hospitably): KJV - accompany, assemble (selves, together), bestow, come together, gather (selves together, up, together), lead into, resort, take in.
NT:4862 sun (soon); a primary preposition denoting union; with or together (but much closer than NT:3326 or NT:3844), i.e. by association, companionship, process, resemblance, possession, instrumentality, addition, etc.:
NT:71 ago (ag'-o); a primary verb; properly, to lead; by implication, to bring, drive, (reflexively) go, (specially) pass (time), or (figuratively) induce: KJV - be, bring (forth), carry, (let) go, keep, lead away, be open.
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

Satan/antichrist comes in the Fifth Trump. Also, more on the Rapture false-teaching
A reader writes:
What I was looking for was scripture showing the antichrist arrives at the sixth trump.
In Rev 9: 13-15 I see the four angels being released at the sounding of the sixth trump.
I remember you writing that to prove the rapture is false is to know
that Jesus is coming at the seventh trump and the ac comes in at the
sixth. Can you help me clarify the trumps? Thanks
God Bless
[Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx]
Answer:
Hello. Satan (as the antichrist) actually comes in the Fifth Trump. The "Sixth Trump coming of antichrist" is the good Pastor Murray's teaching, which I had taken to be correct until further investigation and study found it to be slightly flawed. So you may have seen that in one of my older writings which I thought I had corrected. Sorry for any confusion that this may have caused you. But as to the so-called Rapture it has no matter; for, whether antichrist comes in the Fifth or the Sixth Trump—it is still BEFORE the Seventh Trump when Jesus Christ returns for His Second (and only remaining) Advent.
Therefore, anyone looking to be "taken" anywhere by anyone (physically or spiritually) before the Second Advent are unwittingly (not aware that they are) "looking" (liable) to be harvested out of season by a false christ, that is to say, by antichrist/satan.
We will take a short sidetrack here and discus the Rapture a little bit, then we will get back to the "Trumps issue."
Left Behind?
Rapturists like to use unbiblical slogans in the false doctrine (Rapture) they've constructed (or which they have had constructed for them by deceivers and/or by Biblical-illiterates who learned it from deceivers); they even named a very, very popular book and movie series after the unbiblical slogan, "Left Behind." However, in an ironic twist of fate, true Christians who know and understand their Bibles want to be "left behind" when "all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast" (Rev 13:3b-4a ). Preferring rather to fight (or resist) those (the beast) who have been taken into satan/antichrist's service (the beast is a corporate body of antichrists, it is the then world of the Tribulation):
Rev 13:7
7 And it was given unto him [the corporate first beast] to make war with the saints [true Christians in the Tribulation], and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. KJV
True and faithful Christians (the saints) are to remain working in the field (the world) all through the Tribulation up until the Second Advent of Jesus Christ:
Luke 12:36-43 [Jesus speaking]
36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.
39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.
40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?
42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. KJV
Do not be "taken first" (spiritually by satan/antichrist):
Luke 17:33-37
33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, [taken] Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body [corpse] is, thither will the eagles [vultures] be gathered together. KJV
You will notice that those "taken first" are taken (spiritually) to a place likened to a place of corpses and vultures. That is to say: death (literally in this parable, but spiritually in the literal).
Bodies/corpses
You have noticed that I have inserted [bracketed text] into the above indicating that "body" here was to mean corpse, and that "eagles" here meant vultures. This was by far not just an arbitrary decision on my part, there is much supporting evidence for this rendering, both in and out of the Scriptures. We will deal with the "bodies" first, then after supplying a parallel Scripture we will address the "eagles" issue.
That the "body" in verse 37 above is a corpse is documented in the below parallel Scripture where, Jesus once again being the speaker, calls this body in Mat 24:28 a "carcass." A carcass is a dead body, a corpse; I trust that all can agree upon that.
Parallel Scripture
Matt 24:23-30
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 For wheresoever the carcase [corpse] is, there will the eagles [vultures] be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. KJV
Christ's above explanatory words alone show settle issue; however, from even a common-sense standpoint: It is not natural to speak of someone as a "body" unless they are dead. We do not say: "There are three bodies in the car," unless they are three dead people. Had we meant living people we would say "There are three people in the car." I trust that this point has been fully made?
So, Rapturists unwittingly are asking to be taken spiritually to the place or state of the dead during the Tribulation; then after the Tribulation Jesus Christ shall return at His appointed Second Advent to gather his saints unto Him and destroy the wicked.
I know that Rapturists don't really want to be among the (spiritually) dead at the Second Advent, and that it is only because they believe an unbiblical doctrine that they are in this predicament. Okay, so they stumbled, but they don't have to remain in error. But what if they refuse the hard truth as documented in the Scriptures, preferring rather to believe smooth and easy lies? God knows.
Eagles/vultures
 |
|
'Gypaetus barbatus', literal translation: 'vulture eagle with a beard'. Known more commonly as the Bearded Vulture. |
And regarding the word "eagles," in both of the above Luke Matthew Scriptures, being vultures, we have a deeper study on this at: Evil spirits in some churches; the danger to women by evil spirits; The Rapture theory and the "bodies," "carcasses," and "eagles," of Mt 24 & Lk 17, where we have the picture at right of a "Bearded Vulture," which is basically a vulture eagle. Also at that study we find written:
The Bearded Vulture belongs to the order Falconiformes which encompasses over 270 species. This includes vultures, hawks, falcons and eagles (owls are not included in this order). All have hooked beaks for tearing flesh and most have talons, with the vultures having weaker feet as they feed on carrion [corpses, carcasses] and need not hold their prey to prevent it escaping. ... ― Vulture Culture, How Birds Are Named.
The main point is that eagles hunt, kill, and eat their own food, vultures eat the remains of already dead things; i.e., carcasses. Go to the above study for a more complete treatment of the matter.
One more note on these parallel Scriptures. They both climax with the body/eagles, carcass/eagles, documenting that they are on the same subject matter. The first one that we supplied above (Luke) links these body/eagles with those "taken first," and in the Matthew Scripture the Holy Spirit links the carcass/eagles with those deceived by antichrist; therefore, we have wonderfully before us the Holy Spirit's one great warning, written in two different ways, one a parable and the other literal; that being that those taken first are taken by antichrist/satan into apostasy, which leads to death. So much for the so-called Rapture theory!
Back to the "Trump timing"
Not let's document the "Trumps" question with the Scriptures to ensure that we have it right in our minds—and most importantly—that we have it right with the Scriptures of God.
The Second Advent of Jesus Christ is at the end of the Seventh Trump, after all Seven Vials (of God's wrath [Rev 15:7-8]) are poured out upon an apostate and corrupted world. Now, there is no eighth trump, the seventh is the final one, it is the "last trump" spoken of in 1st Cor 15:52 where the remaining surviving Christians shall be "changed".
1 Cor 15:50-53
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood [human body] cannot inherit the kingdom of God [for it is in the spiritual realm]; neither doth corruption [a decaying flesh body] inherit incorruption [eternal spiritual body].
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep [die], but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible [in spiritual bodies], and we [who were alive and remaining )i.e., did not yet die)] shall be changed [into spiritual bodies (but without dying first)].
53 For this corruptible [flesh body] must put on incorruption [spiritual body], and this mortal [flesh person] must put on immortality [spirit person, like the angels]. KJV
This "changing" (into a spiritual body [air = spirit]) is documented in another Rapturist-confused Scripture, 1st Thes 4:17
1 Thess 4:16-17
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God [specifically the seventh]: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air [change to our spiritual bodies]: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. KJV
Observe the order and timing of the
Trumps and antichrist's and Jesus Christ's respective arrivals on the Earth:
Revelation 9:1 - 19:16
Rev 9:1-3
9 And the fifth angel sounded [i.e., the 5th Trump], and I saw a star [satan/antichrist] fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts [fallen angels] upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
[...]
11 And they had a king [satan/antichrist] over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon [Grk #3 -a destroying angel; from Heb #11 -a perishing, concrete, Hades; from Heb #6 -to wander away, lose oneself, perish.], but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon [Grk. #623 -a destroyer; from #622 - perish, fully, die...].
12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
13 And the sixth angel sounded [the 6th Trump], and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,[...]
Rev 11:14-18
14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
15 And the seventh angel sounded [the 7th Trump]; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

Rev 19:11-16
11 And I saw heaven opened [Second Advent of Jesus Christ], and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 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.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God [Jesus Christ; see John 1:1+14, the Word was God...the Word became flesh].
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF Lords. KJV
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.
