Satan's goal: A creation that unites him with it

Daniel 7 says the Antichrist is "more stout" than any other person. His physical appearance was different than the normal man. The Bible says he’s the "king of fierce countenance." He literally looks different, like a super version of a humanoid kind of a thing. But it doesn’t work.

Jordan explains, "In Psalm 139:15-16, David is describing the creation of man: [15] My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

[16] Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

“There was a point when David knew that when he was conceived (Psalm 51 says, [5] Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.) there was a book; God’s book in which everything David was going to be . . .

“Now we know that’s DNA today, but 50 years ago nobody knew what that was. When I was conceived in my mother’s womb, that first joining of those 46 chromosomes said I was going to have blue eyes, my daddy’s hands, my mother’s skull structure, on and on.

“When David says, ‘In thy book all my members were written which then just grew,’ he’s talking about the book of DNA that God wrote. Now, God wrote another Book and you’ve got it in your lap. What does Satan want to do with that Book? ‘We are not as many which corrupt the Word of God.’

“Jesus taught the parable in Luke 8 saying the ‘seed was the Word of God.’ You know what happens when you get saved? Jesus says the new birth is when God’s Spirit implants life into a dead spirit. Paul calls that 'regeneration'; when you were born of the Spirit of the God.

“James 1 says it was the ‘engrafted word.’ Literally, when you trusted Christ, God took His Spirit and engrafted Him into your, I’ll say it like this for an illustration, ‘spiritual DNA,’ and became one with you at a level that is comparable to becoming one with you in your DNA physically.

“Satan’s goal is to form a creation that unites him with creation—heaven and earth with HIM as the boss; with HIM on the throne, but it doesn’t work. It doesn’t work in Genesis and it doesn’t work in Revelation. It’s a failure. Just like you can’t corrupt that Book, he can’t successfully corrupt mankind. You know why?

“In Matthew 24, Jesus said, ‘And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.’

“So you know what He does? He shortens them. That’s why the tribulation’s 70^th week only lasts seven years and, in that part of it, only 1,240 days. Because if what Satan put into motion there were allowed to run its normal course, all of humanity’s flesh would be corrupted, but God won’t let that happen. He’ll stop it. And He stops it by the Word of God coming, the Lord Jesus Christ (Revelation 19) coming from heaven to destroy the Adversary.”
