Nick,

Both Daniel and Revelation speak of kings as beasts. You also have in Jeremiah and Ezekiel the king of Babylon and the king of Egypt being called a dragon. They aren’t likened to a dragon because they are being possessed or manipulated vessels by wicked rebel spirits. They are called such because they act only upon their carnal mind, just like that of a lion, adder, or dragon.

Psalm 58:2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth. 3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies. 4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; 5 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming* never so wisely. 6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD. 7 Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.

Jeremiah 23:26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

Jeremiah 9:5 And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.

There is NO teaching of wicked rebel spirits causing men to lie having been deceived. Deceit comes from within us, lies are spoken through our own hearts by our own imagination.

Proverbs 20:20 Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.

Proverbs 14:8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.

Jerm 9:8 Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaketh deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth, but in heart he layeth his wait.

Jeremiah 14:14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

Jeremiah 23:26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

Nick, you believe in fables. Man is likened to a serpent said to be a liar a deceiver for he follows his carnal mind, the thoughts from his OWN heart, through his OWN imagination.

This is not from my imagination, I didn’t make up these scriptures that say exactly what I am saying.

Men are FOOLS, they are ignorant beasts, they aren’t fools for following or being deceived by wicked rebel spirits. DIRECTLY told to you Nick, their OWN hearts, their own imagination. Man is not being deceived by another creature, by the imagination of some wicked rebel spirit. I say exactly what scripture says, you ignore it and believe in fables, you have added to scripture going directly against what is told to you.

Man is following his own heart the thoughts of his OWN imagination, his carnal mind that then is rightfully likened to a lion, adder, or dragon as all they are is carnally minded creatures themselves.
