SUMMARY CONCLUSION:

Once again, the Bible appears to be confirming that God uses the false prophets to destroy one another. Jawbone of Ass would ordinarily point to Christ. However, in tribulation, God smites cheeks or the jaws of the wicked, which would point to antichrists destroying the body in judgment. Samson (type of Christ/Elect) used the jawbone as a weapon against his enemies, so too God uses the unsaved church as His weapon of indignation.
