Assuming this scenario shouldn't it also mean they were already antichristian before the 7th trumpet sounds? Keeping in mind, meaning billions perhaps. Per this scenario, before the 7th trumpet sounds, we would be in the time of the millennium. Which means billions are already antichristian before satan is even loosed. Is it possible for billions to be antichristian without it involving satan deceiving any of them? And what does Revelation 20:3 record? It records this---that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled
How then did billions become antichristian during Amil's proposed millennium when the text is telling us that satan can't deceive nations during the millennium?
Satan does not work alone! He has minions through the beasts, false prophets, and false workers, like wolves in sheep's clothing, liars, deceivers etc. all in human form, controlled by Satan's power that he gives to the beasts.
The problem is that you seem to think that when Satan is bound there will be no more deception in the world. But that is not true because as I have already said, Satan does not work alone. And even while in the pit he is a king ruling over his kingdom of darkness and death.
Revelation 9:1-11 (KJV) And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.
