What Does Revelation Say About Satan’s End?

Q: What does Revelation say about Satan’s end?

    At the return of Jesus Christ to the earth, Satan and His hosts will be bound for a thousand years. Then the world would enjoy the reign of the Prince of Peace. But this would last for only a millenial. 

    Revelation 20:1-3
    Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; 3 and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished. But after these things he must be released for a little while.

    In only a little while of Satan’s release, he will again lead men to rebellion and destruction. But he will not prosper or continue, he will be arrested and thrown into the lake of fire, the place of final and eternal judgment. There will be no release from this place, but he will be forever tormented there.

    Revelation 20:7-10
    7 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison 8 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. 9 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. 10 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.

    But what’s the point of the release you might ask. I believe it is to make a legal point, proving that Satan is unrepentant and irredeemable, that the world of men will never truly know peace if Satan is not eternally judged, and also proving to all that whatever lie Satan has said about God and His systems were nothing but lies. But these are just my personal opinions.
