The antiChrist “the beast” and the false prophet are both men born of women and raised up like any other human. But they will become emissaries of Satan; one the political leader and the other religious leader. They will come on the scene after the body of Christ is raptured.
Here are two verses that identify these personalities as men of flesh and bone. First, let’s look at Revelation 19:20.
‘Then the beast (the anti-Christ) was captured, and with him (the ‘him’ is a pronoun referring to a man the ‘anti-Christ’) the false prophet (another man) who worked signs in his presence, by which he (‘he’ another pronoun that identifies the false prophet as a man) deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two ( men) were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. ‘
Revelation 19:20
At the Lord’s second coming, at the end of the 7 years of tribulation, these two men will be captured. They will be the first tossed into the lake of fire without the benefit of the Great White Throne judgment.
For another passage move ahead one chapter to Revelation 20 verse 10. This is at the end of the 1000-year reign of Christ on earth and we are ready to go into eternity. And we see the Great White Throne Judgment but before that Satan will be tossed in the lake of fire and look who will already be there; the anti-Christ and the false prophet.
‘The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast (the anti-Christ a man) and the false prophet (a man) are (take note that the anti-Christ and the false prophet have been in lake of fire for 1000 years) And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.’
Revelation 20:10
Conclusion
The anti-Christ, the false prophet, both men and Satan (the fallen angel Lucifer) are the three personalities that make up the unholy trinity. The anti-Christ and the false prophet go to their eternal doom first then Satan himself will be tossed into the lake of fire. This unholy trinity will go straight to their eternal doom with no time before the Lord at the Great White Throne judgment. They will be joined by all the lost of the ages who will at least have their moment of time before the Lord at the Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15).
