Dear CDBJ, First we must understand the object and subject of First Peter. The object of the Epistle is the Elect(1Pet1:1,2). The subject of First Peter are the exhortations(general) in view of the end(1Pet1:13-2:10). Therefore by understanding the structures we can see that the structure of 1Pet5:8,9 are exhortations(particular) as to sufferings and glory. Thus we have conclusion. Prayer; embodying the object of the epistle in 1Pet5:10,11 and confirmation of the object of the Epistle in 1Pet5:12-14. 1Pet1:1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, 1Pet1:2 Elect, according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied. 1Pet1:5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1Pet1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 1Pet1:13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; Rev1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto Him, to shew unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and signified it by His angel unto His servant John, Rev 1:4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from Him Which is, and Which was, and Which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before His throne; Rom 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. Rom 9:16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God That sheweth mercy. Rom 8:36 As it is written,"For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter," Rom 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him That loved us. Rom 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalites, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Rom 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. You have quoted 1John4:4 and Eph. 6:10-17 and say that satan is not omnipresent. However, we must remember our enemies: Eph.6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. And that: 1John2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 2Thes2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 2Thes2:8 And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: By the above, I hope yu see that satans spirits are indeed omnipresent.

Continued................ We must read the Bible for 2 reasons: The first reason, which is now: Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Eph 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; And the second reason, which is to come: Eph 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. You said satan was thrown out of heaven in Rev 12:7, but he was cast down in Rev 12:9. You ask"what kind of war would that be?" Are you denying the war in heaven in Rev 12:7? I hope not. Can you please show me where it says in scripture that "he" satan "HAS" to come to earth to see what believers are doing in order to accuse them before God". This is not stated in the Bible, verbatim and is your intrepretation. Also, Please show me where he will only have three and one half years left to do his evil work. Matt 24:22 and Mrk 13:20, say the time was shortened for the elect who are still on earth during the tribulataion. Satan and his angels are not here, but when they get here they have only a short time. Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time." Where it says "woe to the inhabiters of the earth and sea," it is because he(satan) is on his way to earth where he hasn't been for a long time. To understand this one must understand the three heavenly woes. Rev 8:13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice," Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!" Regarding 2Thes2,I'm not sure why you mentioned it, because this chapter does not say the tribulation was shortened or that satan comes for the elect. 2Thes2 was written to the church of the Thessalonians because there was so much misunderstanding in regards to the first letter, which was 1Thes., regarding the order of the return of Christ and our gathering unto Him. CDBJ, satan is restricted defacto from earth at this time and you have not proven otherwise. Thanks for your questions. In Faith and Hope. Peace, Casiv |
