Lil Nas X Knows Luke 10:18, but Does He Know Revelation 20:7-15?

The immensely popular Old Town Road artist, Lil Nas X, has a new single out, Montero (Call Me By Your Name), but his biggest media splash is over a limited edition pair of altered Nike shoes by his collaboration with a company named MSCHF. These shoes include a drop of blood in the heel, a reference to Luke 10:18, and are aptly named "Satan's Shoes". Isn't that cute? But it's not a joke.

He may be aware of the Luke passage (which actually speaks of Satan's fall from Heaven), but I'd suggest for him to read Revelation 20. This passage tells of his forthcoming judgment. From the Bible:

"The Defeat of Satan

7 And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. 9 And they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them, 10 and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Judgment Before the Great White Throne

11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. 13 And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. 14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. 15 And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."

So, as you read for yourself in all of Revelation, Jesus wins and Satan is eternally defeated. Kind of a perfect message for Easter, don't you think? Jesus- always the victor and never the defeated.
