Satan, the prince of the air and the god of this present evil World

Satan is the prince of the power of the air (Eph.2:2 below). Satan is the god (2 Cor.4:4 below) of this present evil world (Gal.1:4 below). Satan is the king/angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue Apollyon (Re.9:11 below).

Satan is described as a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns (Re.12:3 below), a piercing and crooked serpent, a dragon that is in the sea (Isa.27:1 below).

Lucifer has fallen from heaven (Isa.14:12 below); he claims he will exalt his throne above the stars of God (Isa.14:13 below). He claims he will be like the most High (Isa.14:14 below).

Lucifer is brought down to hell, to the pit (Isa.14:15 below). Satan/Lucifer/the Dragon is the king/angel of the bottomless pit (Re.9:11 below).


2 Cor.4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Gal.1:4 (Jesus) Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

Eph.2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Re.9:11 And they had a king over them, [which is] the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue [is] Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath [his] name Apollyon.

Re.12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon (Isa.27:1 above), having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

Isa.27:1 In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that [is] in the sea (Re.12:3 above).

Isa.14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

Isa.14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

Isa.14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

Isa.14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit (Re.9:11 above).
