Hey, you guys need to go tell this guy not to worry because Satan has already been bound and he’s not influencing anyone anymore.
As Thomas Sowell once quipped on the old "Firing Line" program, after repeating himself several times to make a point that J. K. Galbreath never did get , "Is there a problem with the acoustics in here?".
That's not what the text says, and that's not what's being claimed.
So when it says in Revelation 20:3 “And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more,” it really doesn’t mean that he isn’t able to deceive them any more. Got it.
Then when it says in Revelation 20: 7 “And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.” It really doesn’t mean that he will deceive the nations. That must be obvious because at the end of the thousand years Jesus has returned and there are no nations to deceive because there are no “four corners of the earth” because the earth has been destroyed after all.
So that’s what you believe. Ok then.
