NOW THE SERPENT WAS MORE SUBTLE THAN ANY BEAST OF THE FIELD WHICH THE LORD GOD HAD MADE. Genesis, Chapter 3, Verse 1.
The Serpent, or Beast, was the most cunning and crafty of all the beasts of the field. The term beast refers to the “nature” and/or character of the Serpent, or Satan. The “beastly nature” in mankind speaks of the animalistic, rebellious, callous, ungodly, and untamed behavioral patterns within the heart.
To be “beastly” means to possess “animal-like” behavior, with the cunningness and craftiness of the Serpent. The seed of the beast-like nature was planted in the heart of Eve by the Serpent. When Eve chose to eat of the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden, the seed of sin germinated and began to take root in her. Both Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit which subsequently changed their nature. That seed continues today to be passed down from generation to generation adversely affecting all human nature.
Beastly or “animal-like behavior” has been present in mankind since Adam and Eve inherited many of the characteristics of the Serpent “in the Garden of Eden.” The first part of the word animal “ani” is found in many of mankind’s behavioral patterns in words like animosity, animism, animality, animalistic, animus, and a few others. All of these words have to do with animalistic behavior in mankind, both spiritually and physically. See the Dictionary for more information regarding these words and their meanings.
The Serpent and his band of angels had rebelled from the authority of God and were cast out of Heaven. It was not long until Satan was found interrupting God’s plan for mankind in the Garden of Eden. Lucifer, the Serpent, was perfect in all his ways until pride and rebellion was found in him.
After God created the Earth, He created man in His image. When God cursed the rebellious angels in Heaven, they were transformed into beastly looking creatures we call demons and devils. I believe God did this so mankind could recognize the animal-like character of the Beast. The animal-like behavior and characteristics found in the “most subtle beast of the field,” typifies mankind in his fallen state in many ways.
Do we all act like animals? No, we do not! Men and women are not animals. However, many do possess many of the spiritual characteristics of the Beast. It is many of the behavioral patterns of the “Beast” which becomes rooted and grounded in the hearts of men that causes them to sin. Demon spirits can manipulate and beguile men and women into committing “gross sin.” People sin because their hearts are deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. (Jeremiah 17:9). Only Christ can cure mankind of their animal-like behavior. Only Christ can cleanse the heart from all sin and unrighteousness.
Satan beguiles many people into thinking they are descendants of animals. The Theory of Evolution is just a theory, and can never be proven because it is a lie and there is no proof which proof exists. There is no physical “missing link” between man and animals. However, there is a missing link between man and God—His Name is Jesus. God created man in His own image, not in the image of the Beast!
In reality, the Theory of Evolution points to the “beastly instincts and ungodly nature and characteristics of the Beast (Satan) and the devils which are under his authority. Some of those beastly instincts and characteristics became inherent in mankind “in the beginning.” Those beastly instincts were planted by the “seed of the Serpent” in Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.
The beastly nature in mankind comes from the “seed (fruit) of the Serpent” which grew on the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. The Theory of Evolution brings man down to the level of animals. Evolution propagates the theory that the “natural process of evolution” changed animals into human beings According to this “theory,” instead of a godly heritage, mankind evolved from animals. In reality, the theory points to the beastly instincts and characteristics which abide in devils and demons.
It is no coincidence that devils possess some of the same physical and psychological characteristics of animals. Although they are not exactly alike, some physical characteristics exist in demons which exist in animals. For instance, some of the demon spirits I have encountered over the years have fins on their heads like sharks. Others I have seen have tails. In the Theory of Evolution, the tail is supposed to be one of the missing links between man and animal. The “animalistic nature” of the beast is apparent in each demon spirit, whether it is characteristic of their inner nature or their physical appearance.
Demons are all “beastly” in nature for a reason. I understand many of these statements may be somewhat controversial. However, if you study the physical, cultural, and natural characteristics of animals, you will see many similarities found in demon spirits.
As we saw in earlier chapters, demons have many of the same physical characteristics and habits of certain animals. Since the beginning of time ungodly people have worshiped “animal gods.” Worshiping the Beast is not just something the devil will institute during the Great Tribulation period. Beast worship has been around since the beginning of time and is still around today.
Just like the Mormon god Babi which looks similar to a baboon, many other demon spirits exist in the likeness of other animals. I am not saying, and this does not mean that animals are demonic, however, it does give us insight into the beastly character of demons and the physical characteristics they possess.
All animals are not evil in nature. In the beginning God did not create animals with an evil nature. However, over time many animals have become carnivores and will kill for food. Before the fall of mankind in the Garden of Eden, animals were herbivores. The curse changed the character, eating habits, and instinctive dispositions of many animals. All animals are not demonic in nature, but many are at times influenced and/or control by demons because of the curse. The aggressiveness and violent nature which is found in many animals were not present within them before the curse.
The natural diet of animals was purely vegetarian before the fall of mankind in the Garden of Eden, and the curse was pronounced upon the Earth. (See Genesis 1:30). After the curse the character of animals changed, and many of them became carnivorous. I am not advocating a vegetarian diet for man or animals. Many animals would not survive without eating meat because their natural (unnatural) instincts and cravings are bent toward the eating of flesh because of the curse.
In essence, many animals would not survive if they could not eat the diet of their choice. For humans to “eat meat” or “not to eat meat” is up to each individual. In the beginning Adam and Eve were vegetarians. However, after Noah and his family left the Ark, God told them He had given them the animals on the Ark “for meat,” as well as the green herb. (Genesis 9:3).
Eating meat or flesh was instituted as a type and shadow of eating the flesh of Christ (spiritually speaking) and partaking of the meat of God’s Word. The process of eating and digesting meat was and is prophetic of the “Bread of Life,” which is Christ. Jesus said “For my flesh is meat indeed, and my Blood is drink indeed.” (John 6:55). When we are taking communion we are spiritually partaking of the broken body of Christ, and drinking His Blood.
The drinking of blood was strictly prohibited in the Bible because blood is where the life of the flesh resides. Many cults partake in the drinking of blood, including the blood of beasts and humans. In doing so they believe they are taking on the characteristics and/or power of the beast or person they have killed or sacrificed. As Christian, when we are partaking of the sacraments during communion, we are spiritually ingesting His Holy character.
After the fall of man, his spiritual nature took on many of the characteristics of the Beast, Satan. After “the fall” of Adam and Eve God did not allow them to partake of the fruit from the Tree of Life again. Therefore, mankind would wander aimlessly through time until a true sacrifice for sin was made, and God’s Spirit was again breathed into the souls of mankind.
The atoning Blood of Christ washes away the beastly character in man which was inherited from his ancestors Adam and Eve who were deceived by the Serpent in the Garden of Eden. Unfortunately, all who have not been “washed in the Blood” of Christ will continue to possess many of the characteristics of the beastly nature of the Serpent.
Many experts believe that reason is what distinguishes the psyche of man from the psyche of animals. The ability to reason gives man the capacity to choose between right and wrong. The ability to reason which gives us the capacity for faith. The ability to reason also gives us the capacity for conscience. Godly reason is different than human reason. Human reason cannot accept the concept of faith and righteousness. God says “come and let us “reason together.” (Isaiah 1:18). The reasoning of God is rooted and grounded in faith and belief in the supernatural.
Human reason gives us the capacity to choose right from wrong. It gives us the capacity to think, add, divide, or take away—and to make decisions based on our intellect. Human reason is limited to the understanding and knowledge of natural man. Reason is part of our psychological makeup. Godly reason is what gives us the power to “believe” and “receive” the promises of God. Godly reason goes far beyond human reason and logic.
Without reason, we are like animals. Animals survive through instinct. For some animals the “Law of the Jungle” is the law by which they survive. For many animals, the survival of the fittest--to kill or be killed--is the law by which they live. This law, or instinct, is what drives the beastly behavior in humankind. Instinct can be a powerful motivator and force of human nature.
Our reasoning powers can be good or bad, depending on our motives and attitudes. One can reason within himself that “good is evil” and “evil is good.” We usually reason things out based on facts. However, many times our natural aptitude to reason is beguiled by the Spirit of Confusion. For many people “truth” is seen as “fiction.” Many people have a natural proclivity to reject the truth, thus deceiving themselves. Every decision which we make will depend on the motives and attitudes within our hearts. If people’s motives and attitudes are evil, the beastly nature within them will continually cause them to commit sin.
The scripture states that in the last days men would call “good evil” and “evil good,” and this is happening today. The lusts of the flesh dominate the spirit within individuals through the character of the Beast. I knew a Pastor who asked God to let him see into the hearts of men. God granted to him his request and allowed him to see into their hearts. He went on to say that he wished he had never asked the Lord to see into men’s hearts because what he saw within their hearts was evil, and desperately wicked. When the nature of the beast takes control of the desires, motives, and attitudes of men, they become their own worst enemy.
The nature of the Beast gives rise to all that is evil in mankind. According to the Apostle Paul, even the wisdom of this world is “devilish in nature.” Wisdom is important, however only godly wisdom can and will lead to godly character. The wisdom of the Beast, which is the wisdom of this world, will cause many to commit sin and die without Christ.
Wherever the Beast abides, ungodly wisdom, attitudes, desires, and motives will thrive and flourish. To a certain extent the character of the Beast rules and reigns within the hearts of all unbelievers. The fallen nature of mankind is a result of the “seed of deceit” which was first planted in the heart of Eve in the Garden of Eden by the Serpent. In the born again believer, the nature of Christ is always at odds with the nature of the beast (the flesh) which remains within them. If we are going to subdue the “flesh man,” using “godly wisdom” is important and necessary.
The nature of Christ in the born again believer will war against the nature of the Beast. The “old man (the flesh)” and the “new man” (Christ) are contrary in nature, and will always oppose each other. When we have totally put the flesh under subjection, we can then claim that the “old man is dead.” When people miss the mark of the high calling of God, it is because they allow the “old man” in them to be resurrected. People submit to earthly desires and emotions when and if they allow the Spirit of Witchcraft to beguile them into committing sin.
The fool says in his heart “there is no God.” To the fool, God is just a crutch for the “weak minded.” In reality, atheists know there is a God however, they just do not want to admit God exists or to retain God in their knowledge.
I heard a story a few years ago about a man who owned a trucking company. Before he hired any new employees they were all given a lie detector test. One of the questions which was asked each prospective employee was “whether or not they believed in God.” Every potential employee who took the test and denied they believed in God were found to be untruthful. Everybody believes in their heart there is a God, but many refuse to acknowledge He exists.
No matter how much someone tries to deny the existence of God, the sub-conscience knows differently. No matter how much man tries to replace God with a substitute, he believes in a god. When God created man He placed within his heart a “throne” where God himself was supposed to rule and reign. Either the nature of God or the nature of the Beast will sit upon that throne, ruling, reigning, and motivating each individual. Whether it is the true God or the god of this world, a god sits upon the “throne” of people’s hearts. Either the God of truth, or the nature of the Beast, rules and reigns upon the heart of every individual.
In essence, the atheist believes in a god, but it is a god of his own choosing. Many times it is the god of self-centeredness and self-righteousness which he chooses. The god of this world, also known as the Beast, is the one who sits upon the throne of the heart of the atheist. The atheist has become subservient to the will and desires of the Beast. The atheist may not be openly worshiping the Beast, but in reality he is giving the Beast his allegiance and power. He is serving the god of self, and adhering to doctrines of devils which beguiles him into rejecting the authority of the true God--Jehovah.
Just because a person does not believe in God does not mean that God does not exist. Truth will never change because it is rooted and grounded forever in reality. Most atheists claim there is no proof that God exists. However, the scripture says that even the “heavens” declare His glory, and the firmament shows His handiwork. Devils believe and know there is a God, and always tremble at His presence and at the mention of His Name.
In reality, it is not that men do not believe there is a God, but it is that they do not WANT to believe in Him. They prefer darkness over the Kingdom of Light. They prefer darkness rather than Light to rule within their hearts. Their understanding is crippled by the beguiling tactics of the Spirit of Confusion. If men admitted they believed in God, they would have no excuse for their sins. I am sure everybody in Hell believes God exists and may even repent daily, but it is too late for them.
An atheist trusts in the earthly wisdom which is rooted and grounded in his own heart which is devilish and deceitful above all things. The atheist thinks “he rules his own heart,” but it is the spirit of the Beast which controls his motives and attitudes concerning the existence of God.
The atheist believes in himself and his own ability to judge between right and wrong, as well as good and evil. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil may produce some good fruit (earthly in nature) in him, but even the good can be obscured by evil because his motives are evil. Man chooses to commit sin when he is motivated by the evil desires, motives, and attitudes which dwell in his heart. Without God’s intervention man will continue to sin, and in due time will reap the consequences of sin. Only Jesus can deliver men from the power of sin. Sin will always lead to spiritual death.
If man denies the existence of God, he denies the Truth and calls God a liar. All liars will find themselves in the Lake of Fire. There is, however, a way of escaping such a horrible destiny. If we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Many atheists and agnostics have found the truth, through faith in the shed Blood of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, many will never find the TRUTH.
Most if not all demon spirits have animal-like features or characteristics. Some walk upright, while others walk on four feet. Some have human-like characteristics, however all of them have some physical features which resemble animals.
I believe our Lord allows people to see into the spirit realm so we can know what types of demons and/or angels we are dealing with and how they operate. The Lord has shown many people evil spirits so they may teach others how to recognize them and how to deal with them.
The pangolin is a type of anteater. It is a nocturnal animal. Pangolin only searches for food in the darkness of night. The pangolin’s main diet consists of ants and termites. Pangolins move around slowly as they search for food, hissing much like a snake hisses. When threatened by predators pangolin will curl up in a ball for defensive purposes. Unlike other species of anteaters, the pangolin has hard scales all over its body like a dragon.
Pangolins have a long snout like other anteaters. They meander slowly through the forests at night searching for food. Pangolins have been known to eat tens of thousands of ants and/or termites in one night. Although they are not as slow as sloths in their movements, they are known for their slow, calculating movements.
In the realm of darkness, Pangolin is known as the “god of the underworld” or the “realm of the dead.” In ancient Egypt, Pangolin was known as the god Set (or Seth), the god of “chaos.” Pangolin is also related to the Dragon spirit. He is dragon-like in that he has hard scales all over his body.
The demon spirit Pangolin has authority on the Earth to promote chaos by releasing deception, death, and devilish demagoguery on Earth from the realm of the dead. Like the slow movements of the pangolin, the evil seeds which incite chaos do not show up immediately. Pangolin slowly conquers one inch of ground (spirit) at a time. He is extremely calculating and ruthless in his maneuvers as he conquers the hearts and souls of men. The “evil seeds of chaos” meanders stealthily and slowly among ungodly geopolitical, religious, and socioeconomic societies.
When the hearts and minds of men are “ripe for the picking,” Pangolin will ensnare them with the fruit of their own elicit desires to commit sin, iniquity, and violence. When men prefer darkness rather than light, Pangolin is able to lure them into sin. Pangolin ensnares and beguiles them to commit sin according to the lusts which control their flesh. The desires, motives, and attitudes of ungodly men will always fall prey to the wiles of Pangolin. In the Realm of the Dead, Pangolin is known to rule supreme.
One morning as my wife was waking up she encountered a demon spirit which resembled a pangolin. Of course, she dismissed the spirit in the usual way by rebuking it in the name of Jesus and through the power of His Blood.
The following is her account of what she saw: One morning after waking up I saw all of a sudden what looked like large piles of black dirt. It looked like piles of dirt you might see at a nursery or a place where topsoil is sold. As my eyes zoomed in closer to one particular pile of dirt, I could see the dirt moving. After looking at the pile of dirt for a minute or so, I realized it was not dirt--but a pile of flying insects. I could see that these insects had transparent wings as they began to fly into the air.
The insects lifted up like groups or coveys of quail, or something on that order, and would fly away. As each group flew up and away the pile became smaller and smaller. As the groups grew smaller, I could see something lying in the center of the pile of insects. As I looked closer, I saw a large animal which resembled an anteater or aardvark lying on the ground. The animal had a long snout like an aardvark.
The animal resembled a large fat hog, and had a curly tail. The animal was black and had scales like a dragon. The scales looked to be as hard as metal. I guess you could say it looked like a cross between a hog and an aardvark and was covered with thick metal-like scales over its entire body.
The animal was lying on its side, and appeared to be sleeping. After thousands of insects around its body had flow away, the animal began to move very slowly. It slowly raised its head, looked around, and then slowly began to get up on its feet.
After rising upon its feet, the animal started walking in slow motion. It would hold its head back as it walked as if it was going to sneeze. It would then snort out hundreds of flying insects from its snout. The insects reminded me of termites or other small flying insects. The insects flew up into the air and then flew away.
Pangolin, the god of the regions of the dead and of chaos, has always been at work propagating his secular humanistic values. Secular Humanism ultimately leads to violence and turmoil in the heart of brute beasts and ungodly men of unsavory character. In the last days Secular Humanism will thrive.
Secular Humanism embraces human reason, human ethics, social justice, and social naturalism rejecting religion and other supernatural phenomena. In reality, secular humanism is a religion. One of the definitions of religion is “a pursuit or interest which someone ascribes supreme importance to.” It is one of the religions which is propagated by the Beast who is the creator of Secular Humanism as well as all false religions.
Secular humanists do not realize they are under the influence of “the Beast.” Many have fallen prey to the Beast, not understanding what they are doing or who they are serving. Secular Humanism will lead to “worship of the Beast” in the last days.
Pangolin thrives in darkness and the realm of the dead because he feeds off the decaying souls of the spiritually dead. In the realm of darkness a dead soul continually decays forever. Pangolin is ruler of the regions of all the spiritual darkness which is found in mankind.
Sadism and sadomasochism are both behavioral components of “Beastism” found ominously at its core. Beastism is the foundation of all the “isms” in the world. Confusion, spiritual infidelity, violence, and conflict are all byproducts of this ungodly religion. All false religions are rooted and grounded in Beastism.
All chaos enters into the world through Pangolin and his demigods, the termite-like creatures which he snorts out of his snout. They look like the ants and termites which the pangolin eats. Termites, of course, are insects which eat decaying wood and plant materials. In Prophetic teaching, wood represents mankind.
Although the insects which were being snorted out of Pangolin’s snout were termite-like creatures, they were not termites. Their purpose and responsibilities in the Kingdom of the Beast mimic those of termites and ants. They devour the wood (soul), beginning with the inner structures in people’s spiritual homes.
Termites do their work in darkness while being concealed within wooden structures, (our spiritual house or soul), and eat away at the structure. People are not even aware they have termites in their homes until it is too late. The damage termites do to wood is not seen until the damage becomes exposed on the outside. Then it is usually too late to fix the problem. The damage has been done, and the old wood replaced or the structure must be torn down.
As Christians we are the Temple of the Living God. If our foundations and structures have been made out of corruptible materials, they will eventually collapse from decay and neglect due to the “works of Pangolin.” However, if our spiritual houses and foundations are built upon the “Rock of Christ,” we cannot and will not be corrupted and destroyed by Pangolin.
THY POMP IS BROUGHT DOWN TO THE GRAVE (hell), AND THE NOISE OF THY VIOLS: THE WORM IS SPREAD UNDER THEE, AND THE WORMS COVER THEE. HOW ART THOU FALLEN O LUCIFER, SON OF THE MORNING! HOW ART THOU CUT DOWN TO THE GROUND, WHICH DIDST WEAKEN THE NATIONS. Isaiah, Chapter 14, Verses 11-12.
In the Hebrew, the word “worms” is speaking about maggots which in the natural eat the rotting and decaying flesh of the dead. In the Greek termites are called “woodworms.” They eat the decaying and dead pulp of wood and plant materials.
The worms or termite-like creatures which Pangolin snorts out of his snout are spiritual despots or demigods. They are snorted out of the nostrils (realms of the dead) of Pangolin. To “snort” means to force out violently with a harsh noise or sound. The phrase in the scripture above “noise of thy viols” refers to the sound of Lucifer’s pipes or “voice.”
Lucifer was once called the Covering Cherub who was “perfect in beauty.” He led all the heavenly hosts in praise and worship as they worshipped and ministered to God while He sat on His Throne. The sounds of his viols (a musical instrument) or pipes were perfect in beauty and sound. No angel in Heaven was as beautiful as Lucifer or possessed “viols” which compared to his. The word “violin” comes from the root word “viol.”
Lucifer’s praise once covered and surrounded the throne of the most High God. Now, all “Pangolin” can blow out of his ungodly lungs are vile (viols) worms which bring chaos, death, and decay to the souls of mankind. Lucifer’s praise turned to shame, and his voice has become his disgrace.
After snorting out the insect-like devils, they were dispatched to go and exercise power and authority over the hearts and minds of the” beastly nature” found in mankind. Like termites, they work together as they feed off the degeneration and degradation of the “beastly souls” of men who dwell in darkness--the land of the dead (those without Christ).
Termites are known for their cooperative efforts. They are industrious and hard-working, and are also vindictive and dangerously aggressive. They are of one mind and have one purpose, and they are all under the control of the king and queen of their commune.
I have read that termites are altruistic in nature. They will give their lives to protect the source which gives life to their generations, the king and queen of the termites. They consider their own lives nothing compared to the community they are building.
Like the ten Kings in Revelation, Chapter 17, the demigods of Pangolin have one mind, and give their power and strength to promote the desires and commands of the Beast. That Beast, of course, is the spirit of Pangolin whose wishes and desires are all chaotic in nature. If you change the Greek word “woodworm” around, you will have the word “wormwood.” Wormwood in the Bible means “bitterness.” All chaos comes out of hearts which are filled with hatred, murder, and bitterness.
In Revelation, Chapter 8, Verses 9-10, it says: AND THE THIRD ANGEL SOUNDED, AND THERE FELL A GREAT STAR FROM HEAVEN, BURNING AS IT WERE A LAMP, AND IT FELL UPON THE THIRD PART OF THE RIVERS, AND UPON THE FOUNTAINS OF WATERS; AND THE NAME OF THE STAR IS CALLED WORMWOOD: AND THE THIRD PART OF THE WATERS BECAME WORMWOOD; AND MEN DIED OF THE WATERS, BECAUSE THEY WERE MADE BITTER.
All scripture has a threefold meaning. We live in a three-dimensional world. We are three-dimensional beings--body, soul, and spirit. We serve a three-dimensional God--the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The number three in scripture stands for the Godhead, completion, witness, divine fullness, and resurrection. All Scripture has a spiritual, natural, and prophetic meaning.
Prophetically, stars represent angels (messengers). This star, or angel (fallen angel), fell from Heaven into the rivers, waters, and fountains. Waters represent groups of people and nations. Water also represents the “Living Water,” and the “Word.” Jesus said “out of our innermost being would flow rivers of living water.” The Apostle Paul said “our fountains should bring forth sweet not bitter waters.”
Wormwood (bitterness) fell from Heaven upon fountains of water, and a third part of them became bitter. Wormwood fell upon the waters, and men died because the waters were polluted and became bitter. In the natural realm, this scripture speaks, in part, of radioactive fallout as it falls into waterways from thermonuclear war, natural, and/or man-made disasters.
In 1986 an accident occurred at a nuclear plant named “Chernobyl” in The Ukraine. In the worst accident of its kind in history large quantities of radioactive material was released into the atmosphere and water, killing many people. The name “Chernobyl” means “wormwood” or bitterness. Nuclear plants are always built by rivers, seas, or oceans. They must have water to help cool the reactors and keep them from having “meltdowns.” When radioactive material gets into water systems it makes the waters “bitter,?
