What does Revelation 19:20 mean?
The outcome of the beast's war against Jesus is predictable. Jesus, who created all things, captures the Antichrist and Satan's other henchman, the False Prophet. The False Prophet had deceived multitudes by performing signs and wonders (Revelation 13:13–14). The deceived multitude had received the mark of the beast and had worshiped the beast instead of the one true God (Revelation 13:16–18). These two had been responsible for leading many into sin, even the sin of idolatrous and immoral worship, and now they would suffer eternally for their transgressions.The Antichrist and the False Prophet do not die physically. Instead, they are thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. The Bible does not give an exact location of the lake of fire. It may lie outside our universe, but it is a real place. This is the ultimate, eternal destination for all who reject God (Revelation 20:11–15). These two instruments of Satan will find themselves cast into that fire before anyone else.
