All throughout history wicked spirits, fallen angels, demons, all expressions for the same type of beings, unseen spirits that were once part of God's
heavenly family, have inspired writings.
The Bible itself for example foretold that in later times, that is after the apostolic era, demons would inspire teachings such as forbidding of
foods, and forbidding to marry:
"
The inspired word clearly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired statements and
teachings of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, whose conscience is seared as with a branding iron. They forbid
marriage and command people to abstain from foods that God created to be partaken of with thanksgiving by those who have faith and accurately know
the truth."-1 Timothy 4:1-3.
The Bible clearly does not forbid a Christian from eating certain foods. And clearly does not teach that a servant of the Lord should remain celibate,
or not marry. In fact the KJV talking of an overseer, or elder, (using the word bishop) says that the bishop should be the husband of one wife:
"
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife."-1 Timothy 3:2.
Where did the teachings in the Church arise then of the forbidding of certain foods on certain holidays, and that their clergy-class should remain
celibate, it is not a teaching found in the Bible. The Bible itself reveals that these are teachings inspired of demons, that the Church has listened
to.
In Revelation we are given another glimpse into inspired expressions of demons where we are told:
"
And I saw three unclean inspired expressions that looked like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the wild
beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. They are, in fact, expressions inspired by demons and they perform signs, and they go out to
the kings of the entire inhabited earth, to gather them together to the war of the great day of God the Almighty."-Revelation 16:13-14.
This part of the vision in Revelation happens after false religion is destroyed. The demons right now dwell in false religion. Christendom, her
clergy, and her followers are filled with demons. But what will happen when that great prostitute, Babylon the Great is destroyed? Many of those
demons will no longer have the false worship, and be allowed to mislead humankind by means of her spiritistic practices:
"
No light of a lamp will ever shine in you again, and no voice of a bridegroom and of a bride will ever be heard in you again; for your merchants
were the top-ranking men of the earth, and by your spiritistic practices all the nations were misled."-Revelation 18:23.
This will be the very end of this wicked world in Satan's control. The Satan and his demons will have had a huge blow dealt them by God when Jesus
puts it in the minds of the world's rulers to turn upon false religion and destroy it.
These demons no longer using false religion to mislead mankind will inspire expressions and perform signs to gather all humankind together to battle
with Jehovah the Almighty at Armageddon.
Revelation tells us that the 3 expressions come from 3 entities: (1) the
dragon, (2) the
wild beast, (3) the
false prophet.
In earlier
threads the identity of these entities are revealed. The dragon of course
is Satan himself. The false prophet is the fierce beast with two horns that breaths life into the image of the wild beast that it compels all
humankind to bow down to and worship. That is, this is the Anglo-American world power, the United States of America, and Great Britain. The wild beast
is the United Nations, which she breathed life into. Again, in a previous
thread
this beats and its number 666 are explained. It compels all humankind to get the mark of the beast if they want to engage in trade and commerce. How
this will unfold we will have to wait and see.
In that thread on the number of the beast, 666, we see that the number 6 is 1 short of 7, 7 being the number of divine perfection. As the number of
man is 6, which is short of 7 it shows humankind's imperfection. And the fact that the number of the beast, a man's number is 666, or 6 three times,
emphasizes the gross inability of human rulership to fix mankind's problems. All who get involved with the political affairs and wars of this world in
Satan's hands receive the mark of the beast. All the religions of Christendom have the mark 666, as well as their members. For they are very involved
in the politics and wars of the world.
But at this point in world history false religion, with her main part, Christendom, will no longer exist. She will have been viciously torn to shreds,
and all adherents of Christendom if wanting to remain free and alive will have to renounce her and run into atheism and pledge allegiance to the
State.
At that time Satan and his demons will directly, and use their mouthpieces, the wild beast, that is the United Nations, and the United States and
Great Britain to spread demonic vitriolic against Jehovah's named people.
Why will this happen? It may be in response to a hard-hitting message that will be delivered to the people of the world at that time. Now Jehovah's
Witnesses preach the good news, announcing the year of Jehovah's goodwill. But at that time the year of goodwill will have ended. At that time, as the
only remaining religion on earth, Jehovah's Witnesses will be empowered by Jehovah God to proclaim an extremely hard-hitting message of imminent
destruction of the wicked world. This will enrage the rulers of the world, and Satan the Devil. They will not repent of their sins. But in a grate and
murderous rage, with evil intent, much like Pharaoh at the Red Sea, will be baited by Jehovah God into a trap. Lies will be proclaimed without letup
about God's people. And Satan will gatherer all humankind together to eradicate them by means of these three inspired expressions of demons:
"
Then great hailstones, each about the weight of a talent, fell from heaven on the people, and the people blasphemed God because of the plague of
hail, for the plague was unusually great."-Revelation 16:21.
A talent is about 42.5 pounds. A 5-gallon jug of water when full weighs about 45 pounds. So that is the weight of each of these hailstones. Water is
Biblical truth. Right now refreshing waters of truth flow from Jehovah's throne in this year of goodwill for the nations when they have time to repent
of their sins. At that time, the water will have congealed. It will be the same message of Biblical truth, but then it will be hard-hitting messages
of truth proclaiming the end of wicked human society, and the proclamation of Armageddon.
God's people, as they are harmless, are neutral in political affairs, do not pick up arms to fight, or learn war, will appear utterly helpless and
easy prey. But when Satan eggs on humankind to fight with Jehovah's people, they will have picked the wrong battle to fight. As Jesus Christ himself
will step in with his holy myriads of angels to both protect his people.
For this is what Jehovah of armies says, who after being glorified has sent me to the nations that were plundering you: ‘Whoever touches you
touches the pupil of my eye. -Zechariah 2:9.
