"And it was granted to him [Antichrist] to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue and nation...He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed."
Revelation 13:7,15
The gates of Eden were closed to man, but God's love wouldn't abandon man.
The Lord prophesied that he would send His Messiah to defeat Satan and restore man's relationship with God.
Satan offered Eve the chance to know good and evil just as God if she would rebel against God's command.
The result of Adam and Eve's rebellion was the loss of innocence and the promised blessing that God had intended for His people.
When God created man in the Garden of Eden all of creation, including man was good.
But because the Lord valued our freedom so much ,He allowed Satan to tempt man to rebel against God.
This is the same temptation that ensnared Satan to become as god.
In Ezekiel 28, God called Satan as
"the prince of Tyre"
Ezekiel assures us that despite Satan's wisdom and power, he will finally be defeated by Jesus when he makes his great attack against God using the Antichrist.
