    2 Cor.6.2 "Now" (2 of 3)

    "Now" as decreed by the Father refers to the Day where day of salvation is followed by day of regeneration followed by another, all of which are pendent to the Day. (Ps.2.7) Law of Slmilitude underpins parable; likewise, events on earth have their counterpart in heaven. And there was war in heaven. It has parallel action on the earth as well as below the earth. The Sovereign Lord commands a star,"a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit." Those four angels bound 'the great river Euphrates./And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men."(Rev.9.14-15). They were prepared as the four beasts rising out of the 'great' sea. The Spirit uses the river and the sea and the significance is the same. These obey the Law of the Spirit. The devil also have their angels. The angel of the Lord is on the part of the Covenant and the beast is the culmination of the curse placed on the children of wrath who refuses to enter into the God's rest. Thus we have seven beasts each representing them in a generation. These form the floods, "And the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. The sorrows of hell compassed me about: The snares of death prevented me.:(Ps.18.4-6) They war with the Lamb and we see the beast in our times being put to rout in Rev.19.11-16 "And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And we are counted,"hese shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful."(Rev.17.11,14)

    Armageddon, the battle of that great day of God Almighty, however is before Satan is finally over thrown."And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are."(20.10)
