Moreover, why should anyone object to the Bible's saying that it is Satan who gives the wild beast its great authority? God is the Source of that statement, and before him 'the nations are as drop from the bucket and as a film of dust.' Those nations would do better to court God's favor than to take offense at the way his prophetic Word describes them. (Isaiah 40:15, 17; Psalm 2:10-12) Satan is no mythical person assigned to tormeting departed souls in a fiery hell. No such place exists. Rather, Satan is described in Scripture as "an angel of light" a master of deception who exercises powerful influence in general politcal affairs. - 2 CORINTHIANS 11:3, 14, 15; EPHESIANS 6:11-18.
