THE BOOK OF REVELATION: M. M. NINAN<br />

Rev 12:5 And she bore a son, a male, who is going to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her<br />

child was caught up to God and to His throne.<br />

Rev 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, so<br />

that they might nourish her there a thousand, two hundred and sixty days.<br />

Rev 12:7 And there was war in Heaven. Michael and his angels warring against the dragon. And<br />

the dragon and his angels warred,<br />

Rev 12:8 but did not prevail. Nor was place found for them in Heaven any more.<br />

Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent called Devil, and Satan, who<br />

deceives the whole world. He was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.<br />

“And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; he shall bruise<br />

your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:15<br />

Christ is the promised Seed that the Lord was referring to there.<br />

PRINCE OF THE "POWERS OF THE AIR."<br />

AND THE<br />

"PRINCE OF THIS WORLD."<br />

From “The Book of <strong>Revelation</strong> by Clarence Larkin”<br />

(Eph. 6:12. John 12:31, 14:30, 16:11.)As such Jesus did not dispute his claim when in the Wilderness<br />

Temptation he offered Him the "Kingdoms of this World" and the glory of them. Luke 4:5-7. His "Seven<br />

Heads," "Ten Horns," and "Crowns," associate him with the "Beast out of the sea" of the first verse of the<br />

next chapter, the only difference being that the Dragon's "Crowns" are on his "Heads," while those of the<br />

Beast are on his "Horns," and therefore differ in number. These features, common to both, reveal the fact<br />

that there is some relation between the "Dragon" and the "Beast," and that the "Beast" is an earthly<br />

embodiment or incarnation of the "dragon," for the "Beast" does not appear on the earth until after the<br />

"Dragon" is cast out of Heaven. Though the "Antichrist" exists from the beginning of the Week, he does<br />

not become "the beast" until in the "Middle of the Week." Satan is cast out of Heaven and incarnates<br />

himself in him. Then the "Antichrist" breaks his "Covenant" with Israel, desecrates the Temple, and<br />

becomes the "Satanic Person" that rules during the last half of the Week.<br />
