Today, the 25th of August, marks FX’s release of the TV series titled Little Demon, an animated comedy featuring the voices of Danny DeVito, Lucy DeVito & Aubrey Plaza. The description on the official trailer writes: It has been 13 years since being impregnated by Satan, and a reluctant mother, Laura, and her Antichrist daughter, Chrissy, attempt to live an ordinary life in Delaware. However, the two are constantly thwarted by monstrous forces, including Satan, who yearns for custody of his daughter's soul.
Okay. Cruiseyy. Sounds like a fun teen horror right?
“What do you make of this thing, biblical or the media?!” says a character in the trailer… UMMMM I’m going to say 100% BIBLICAL. Thank you for sharing with us the whole last chapter of the Bible!!
WHAT & WHO is the ANTICHRIST?
Christianity & scripture tell us to be on the lookout for the Antichrist, who will appear in the last days. The Antichrist is the polar opposite and ultimate enemy of Jesus Christ. According to scriptures, he will reign terribly in the period prior to the Last Judgment. The Antichrist is Satan in the flesh: a perfectly evil human being & completely opposite to the perfectly good human being, Jesus Christ. Hence ANTI-Christ.
Just as Christians know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, we know that the Antichrist is the son of Satan (or daughter as we see in this series). Jesus was born of a virgin, so the Antichrist would be born of a woman who was apparently a virgin, but was really a whore. Where Christ was God in the flesh, the Antichrist was Satan in the flesh.
1 John 4:3 - and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
According to scripture, the Antichrist will finally be defeated after his 7 year reign by God’s army, under the leadership of Jesus. The battle has already been won on the cross, but the final battle must play out.
2 Thessalonians 2:5-8 - Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he (Antichrist) may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed.
(ie the Antichrist will be revealed when believers are taken out of the world- “in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye”- the RAPTURE of the Church.)
The TV Series //
This series Little Demon is desensitising / ‘prepping’ kids for the 7-year tribulation. Where the Antichrist rules over all nations, & the gates of Hell & God’s wrath is unleashed on earth. Exactly as you see in the trailer. Just look at the blatant satanic symbolism strewn throughout every shot. This is the story of the rise of the Antichrist & the 7-year tribulation written in the bible. Who would have thought film & TV would serve it to us on a golden platter. Gone are the days of subtle programming, this is direct; blatant & in our face. There is nothing hidden, but still we do not see. It just goes to show how blinded we are by the forces at play.
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.
Have any of you seen Stranger Things? Haaa! You say, of course, I mean derr. It’s the number 1 show people talk about these days- and I mean everyone- from 11 year old kids on outdoor ed camp to 30 year old friends. Guess what, it’s exactly the same concept. They are desensitising / prepping us for hell on earth; for the tribulation.
HA okayyy, whateverrr, you say, as if any of that could actually happen…
During the 7 year tribulation, Christians will not be here, and neither will the hand of God, only his wrath & the evil wills of the Antichrist, manifested as Satan in the flesh.
1 John 2:18-19 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.
Satan does everything he can to lead people away from the God of the Bible, the one true God. All movement away from God is movement towards Satan; away from the true Christ is towards the ultimate false christ…
Satan’s ultimate goal is to create an alternate kingdom where he is god and worshipped as god.
- Matthew 4:8-10 - Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.” 10 Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’
He even wants God to bow down and worship him in this alternate kingdom. But the Bible has already revealed the alternate kingdom that is prepared for Satan…
- Isaiah 14:9-15 - “Hell from beneath is excited about you, to meet you at your coming; it stirs up the dead for you, all the chief ones of the earth; it has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.10 They all shall speak and say to you: ‘Have you also become as weak as we? Have you become like us? 11 Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, and the sound of your stringed instruments; the maggot is spread under you, and worms cover you.’ 12 “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations! 13 For you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north; 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit.”
Did you know that hell was not prepared for humans? Did you also know that angels cannot be redeemed?
- Matthew 25:41 - “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels
- 2 Peter 3:9 - The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
I encourage you today to seriously examine your heart and determine for yourself which kingdom you are heading for… Satan’s alternate kingdom, or God’s true eternal kingdom. God is not willing that any should perish, and He is calling to each one of us to repent (turn away from our sins), turn back toward Him, and to follow Him as King and saviour of our life!!
Or you can keep soaking up the horror & gore & brush it off as a post work TV ritual of ‘I don’t want to think about anything anymore.’ Might be your famous last words.
