GATHERING OF DARKNESS
GATHERING OF DARKNESS
Just before the dusk of the 3rd millennium BC, the heat of Divine-vengeance gradually and significantly advanced towards the tipping point, bringing a surge of terror among demons. Nevertheless, the blooming of the new millennium offered them another opportunity to evaluate and re-strategize in their unholy campaign against the Creator and humanity.
Meanwhile, as the inhabitants of the world commemorate the dawn of the new millennium, singing and jubilating all night long, unknown to them somewhere in the underworld, at the center of hell, the most infamous event in the universe had finally commenced. It had taken a thousand years to prepare for the summit, and it would take another thousand years to execute its agenda.
Apparently, the millennium international demonic conference this time had a massive burden to unpack. Every demon had gathered at the center of hell, the ballroom of evil, for the sole purpose of preventing the arrival of the Messiah as was foretold 3 | P a g e
by the Creator, for his star had slowly approached the solar system. And the moment it arrives in the solar system, the damage to the kingdom of darkness would be irreversible. But if demons could strive hard enough to cajole humanity, and bring them to absolute perversion, the prophecy would be averted, and the star would return to planet Heaven, the source of all celestial and terrestrial bodies.
Satan the supreme ruler of the kingdom of darkness who was formerly called Heylel by the Creator, and the five most-ranked demonic executives known as the Principalities were desperately seeking solutions because they knew their time had drastically shortened. The five points of the pentagram symbolized the Principalities and their domain of activities. These Principalities are Apollyon, Leviathan, Belial, Hades and the Beast. They held spheres of influence all over the world in five main areas: religion, occultism, finances, politics, and sex.
Over the years, they have successfully subjugated humanity and brought them to a life of servitude through the manipulation of their carnal desires.
"We must place evil men and women in positions of authority all over the world if we are to stand a chance of averting the prophecy," Satan 4 | P a g e
declared, he had the form of a fire-breathing dragon, and beside him, was Beelzebub his bodyguard, a demon of the second-division hierarchy. In the kingdom of darkness, the second-division category of demons was known as the Powers. And they function under the directives of the Principalities. In appearance, Beelzebub was half man half horse, and his wings were like a spider web.
Satan continued, pointing his crooked finger straight at the legions of demons before him. "No city, no nation will be exempted this time. There must be total darkness all over the world. Humanity must be enslaved completely." And a crescendo of demonic voices replied in unison, "Total darkness, total darkness, total darkness all over the world." This was like the sound of many foghorns. Furthermore, he goaded them with an incorrect citation of an ancient prophecy, "listen, you remember the prophecy: we will crush their heels and their heads will roll on the ground." And they roared louder, "Crush their heels!"
And the ballroom trembled and shook hysterically for they were filled with the spirit of strife. Originally, the ancient prophecy said, "The Messiah will crush the head of the kingdom of darkness and they will wound 5 | P a g e
his heels." But Satan has cited incorrectly to suit his expectations.
Later, when dinner was served; their excitement deepened, for the menu was their favourite delicacy: the worship and sacrifices offered by humanity. These of course were originally meant for the Creator alone, but demons covet sacred things. Unfortunately, the offerings came in a short supply. Satan was aggravated. He twitched and clenched his fists.
"Where are the organizers of this meeting?" He roared emitting a devilish aura that accelerated the flames of hell rapidly. Two demons stepped forward with their heads bowed, and their feet trembled incessantly.
"You bunch of wastrels, useless entity. You couldn't provide ordinary food and drinks for all to enjoy, what then can you possibly accomplish?" One of the demons replied, "My Lord it is very difficult to convince humans to give up their faith in the existence of The Creator..." "Shut your dirty mouth devil!" Satan yelled aggressively and interrupted him. "You have the effrontery to speak on this matter. Look at his ugly face and crooked mouth." He mocked. "My Lord it is... "He mimicked. The hall went mute. After pausing for a moment, He continued, "Get intelligent people among men to fabricate theories that deny the creation story, 6 | P a g e
feed them with vain imaginations and speculations about the origins of life, and it will do the necessary damage. No Creator means no accountability don't you get it, tell me why the world will not embrace it wholeheartedly, and give up their annoying ancient faith culture in exchange for vanity." The two demons quickly replied in unison, "Yes my lord we will do just that."
Leviathan the crooked serpent, one of the Principalities, spoke up, "My lord I have a plan that will also boost the amount of worship we receive from humanity." He paused for a moment, gasped for breath incessantly. All eyes were eagerly fixed on him.
Like every other high-level demon, he was a shape shifter. This night, he had the head of a Python and the body of a pangolin. Greatly renowned for his sagacity, he explained, "I propose you change your name to Lucifer." Several demons exclaimed in unison: "Huh!
Morning Star, Isn't that blasphemous?" Beelzebub interjected, "But that title belongs to the Messiah." Leviathan continued, "Let’s look at it critically, my lord, you are named Heylel, the bright one of God, by the Creator himself. Now think of it this way, the Romans are Saturnalian. And we all know the role they are going to play in the nearest future. If you 7 | P a g e
upgrade your name by simply misinterpreting it as Lucifer, the morning star, and twist the story of our fall from heaven from that of a wicked and covetous attack on a goodly institution to one of a rebellion against an authoritarian regime, you will be amazed by the worship and admiration that will rain down on you from carnal humans." Satan liked the proposal. He declared immediately, "Wow! This is brilliant. From today you must now all address me as lord Lucifer. Is that clear?" He roared. And they all echoed in unison
"Lord Lucifer! Lord Lucifer! Lord Lucifer! Bravo!" The place became eccentric, everyone indulged in a crazy activity. Satan felt accomplished at this point, he threw his weight around a little bit.
He continued, "Communicate this to the scholars of the Earth realm. I should be addressed as Lucifer the morning star in every story that shall be told or written about me from today henceforth. Wherever Heylel is found, let it be misinterpreted as Lucifer. As soon as he finished speaking, Beelzebub vowed with great determination, "Be rest assured my lord, I will discharge my duty with absolute dexterity in this new millennium. I will passionately manipulate humanities with sorcery and pleasure beginning with the kingdom of Durumga to the outermost part of the 8 | P a g e
world." And all the other demons chimed in, "We pledged the same our lord, humanity will see all manner of affliction this millennium." And they all applauded Heylel now known as Lucifer. Finally, the meeting ended at exactly 2:30 am. In conclusion, Lucifer seriously commanded them to instigate violence, greed, and war among world rulers. And they dispatched to execute these evil agendas among men.
