Unholy Trinity (Christian eschatology)

Unholy Trinity (Christian eschatology)

The Unholy Trinity is seen in Christian eschatology as the exact opposite of the Holy Trinity that represents God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit. The Unholy Trinity represents Satan, Antichrist, and the False Prophet.

The Unholy Trinity would also mean that Satan, the Antichrist and the False Prophet are all one and the same but separated into different incarnations, just as God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit are all one entity in separate incarnations.
