Good to remember that the hero of the Book of Revelation is Jesus, not Satan, or the Beast or False Prophet! The book begins with a vision of the Ascended Jesus Christ, proclaims the Lamb in the center of the Throne, and ends with the sword-wielding Warrior King on His white horse.

As the book says, "And he said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place. And behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” (Rev. 22:6-7 ESV). Most Christians need to read the Revelation more, but with more focus on Him and lees effort trying to identify the Beast with some current politician or dictator.
