The Power Behind the Throne Remember, the coming world leader will demand the worlds worship not merely because he has a severe ego problem. He will be possessed by Satan himself. "The dragon [Devil] gave the beast his power and throne and great authority" (Revelation 13:2, NIV). |
Satan has always wanted to be God. This is why he fell in the first place. The prophet Isaiah wrote, "How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! For you said to yourself, I will ascend to heaven and rule the angels. I will take the highest throne. I will climb to the highest heavens and be like the Most High. But instead, you will be brought down to the pit of hell, down to its lowest depths" (Isaiah 14:12-15, TLB).
This is what Satan is really after when he causes his puppet, the Antichrist, to set up the coming one-world credit system: to force the people of the world to bow down and worship him.
