Why did bellerophon go through so many trials?

The powers that were at the time wanted Bellerophon dead so they kept challenging him with tasks they felt would get him killed. He was not killed but rather accomplished each task he was given unscathed. Bellerophon was also involved in doing God's work and killing Nephilim. He will soon be doing that again when the Nephilim return because Bellerophon is already here, waiting to be given his next task.


Where Bellerophon and Perseus the same people?

NO, they were not. Perseus came before Bellerophon because when Perseus beheaded Medusa, Pegasus sprang from her neck. Bellerophon was the first to tame Pegasus, and with it he defeated the chimera. Perseus is, as far as I know, the only Greek hero to have a "happy ending," with a wife and family. Bellerophon, however, died a tragic death when he tried to fly Pegasus up to Olympus, because he felt he deserved to be a God. Pegasus "bucked," for lack of a better word, him off and Bellerophon fell to his death. Hence, the two are different people.
