rebels and the demons were cast out of heaven and into hell in the deepest part of the earth Lucifer and the other hellish princes work to corrupt God's work owing to his enormous Pride Lucifer became associated with the cardinal sin of Pride these demons and Fallen Angels await the days preceding Christ's return when they will rejoin the Antichrist on Earth and once again battle the forces of the creator thank you belfagor is known as the demon of laziness According to some traditions balfagor was once the powerful archangel belfagal but when Lucifer's rebellion unfolded in the heavens he did

a hellish throne and his feces are turned into his offerings Beelzebub is a demon connected to the figure a ball an ancient Semitic God of fertility and zebud the god of flies this blending gave rise

on land fly in the air and swim in the waters Leviathan was also a creation of God in the Book of Job God describes this colossal Beast the Beast is similar to a huge Sea Dragon at the sight of it men are overcome with fear no man is brave enough to awaken this creature the idea of defeating it is Sheer Illusion God describes the mighty Leviathan as a colossal creature with tremendous power as it moves the monster creates huge waves its powerful mouth has Dreadful teeth its back is protected by rows of shields so close together that even Air does not flow between them Leviathan has a strong breath that shoots flashes of light fire comes out of his mouth and smoke flows from his nostrils when this Beast rises even the mightiest flea in fear swords Spears or arrows do nothing against the creature whose chest is harder and tougher than rocks nothing on Earth is comparable to leviathan's power but this creature is the fruit of God's desire like all beings Leviathan is only powered by God's grace the Beast served as Thomas Hobbes inspiration for his work Leviathan according to the English philosopher when men revert to their natural state where laws do not exist they will tend to start a fight of all against all a social pact is needed to eradicate this in narcic state where everyone gives up part of their sovereignty in the name of a figure with absolute power this figure with authority over men would be the state which because of its power over men Hobbes compares to the gigantic biblical monster Leviathan .
