This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

While members of the Satanic Temple see the mythological, and literary, a figure of Satan as a symbol of rebellion against tyranny, they do not worship Satan in any way.

In the End Satan and All His Followers will Burn in Fire for Eternity
After being bound for a thousand years Satan will be released to deceive the nations. Satan will gather the nations to once again destroy Jerusalem but instead, it will be God that destroys Satan’s army with fire. Satan will be cast into the lake of fire where the beast and the false prophet have been since the end of the tribulation (1000 years).
Lastly, is the Great White Throne judgement (Revelation 20:11-15) were All Christ rejecting mankind will face their judgement (Romans 2:16) by the Righteous Judge Himself, Jesus Christ. They will join Satan, the beast, and false prophet in the lake of fire. Where they will be tormented day and night forever.
‘Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.’
Revelation 20:7-10
The End is Glorious “All Things Made New”
‘Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”’
Revelation 21:2-4
‘Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.” And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. ‘
Revelation 21:5-6
The Gospel of Grace is the Only Hope
In 2 Corinthians 5:18-20, the Lord is pleading with us (believers) that because He paid the price for the sin debt for all mankind once for all time (past, present and future sins) at the cross. That we are to share this amazing gospel/good news message of grace with the lost world. Share the message that mankind has already been reconciled to God in spite of our sin and all God requires of mankind to appropriate this free gift of salvation is to believe the gospel.
In other words, sin is what separates man from God but because Christ removed the sin problem once for all; by shedding His blood, dying on the cross, buried and raised from the dead three days later (the gospel) mankind “is” reconciled back to God. All God ask of mankind is to believe, believe the gospel and in response to our faith God saves us.
‘Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. ‘
II Corinthians 5:18-20
‘Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, ‘
‘For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. ‘
Glory to God for His Grace.

The Good News
salvation
Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. You don't have to do anything but believe by faith that God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead 3 days later.
THE GOOD NEWS
SALVATION
Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. SALVATION IS BY FAITH ALONE & FAITH IS BELIEVING WHAT GOD SAYS.
- God declares all mankind sinners and we all fall short of Glory of God. Romans 3:23
- The payment for our sin is death. Romans 6:23
- But God...because he loved you so much sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die in your place, for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead three days later. 1 Cor 15:1-4; 2cor 5:21
All God asks is that you believe by faith alone in 1, 2, & 3. That you're a sinner, separated from God but God sent his Son to die for your sins, was buried & rose again 3 days later.
'that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. '
