1 | how did satan survive the flood? | Gen 7:23 | terrib | 147728 | ||
Hello 29602004, Gen 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. Gen 7:23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. The Scriptures only talk of those things created, on the Earth or the face of the ground, during the six days. Angels being immortal and not subject to the laws which constrain us on Earth: Luk 20:36 "Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels...". And Satan, being an angel, although fallen, (from Grace), was-is still an angel. As Satan appeared to Eve as a serpent and angels have appeared to some of old and new as men. They are not bound by the laws of our physical realm. They are spirits, (Heb 1:7) "...who maketh his angels spirits...". Just a note: The Scriptures do not say the fish in the sea. terrib |

2 | how did satan survive the flood? | Gen 7:23 | 29602004 | 147757 | ||
hello terrib thank you,but i needed to know his where abouts while the flood was taking place i know angels are immortal.in 2cor.12:2 paul talks about a thrid heaven which i believe is where satan was during this great flood. the thrid heaven is home of the angels and it dawned on me that satan was terrifed of that flood .it showed him yet another side of god which he did not see if god wiped everything off the face of the created earth with water that means satan cannot cross the boundries that god set from the thrid heaven which lets me know this is how he survived the flood.he is limited from earth to the thrid heaven. the three heavens of creation is the first heaven dan.4:12 mt.6:26 the second heaven ps.19:1 the thrid heaven 2cor.12:2 and gen.1:1 2:1 now the earth is under these heavens so it seems to me this is where his survival was in the realm of the thrid heaven watching a planet of ungodly people and things being destroyed. i percieve satan is so afraid of running water that every time he hears the name jesus he flees ,you know jesus is our living water. | ||||||

Hi 29602004, First to recall is, angels, fallen or otherwise, are not omnipresent. You wrote: "that means satan cannot cross the boundries that god set from the thrid heaven which lets me know this is how he survived the flood.he is limited from earth to the thrid heaven" If he were bound to the third heaven, then how did he possess the serpent and appear to Eve? If he were bound to the third heaven, he could not have tempted Christ in the wilderness. And, when God asked him where he had been, he said, (Job 2:2) "...From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it." How did he touch Job? (Job 2:7) "So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown." So, upon leaving the "presence of the Lord", he came to earth and touched Job. The devil being here, on Earth: Joh 12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. Joh 14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. I don't see any indication that Satan is bound to the third heaven. It is agreed that he and his do fear the Lord, (Mat 8:29) "And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?". Interesting to note that the demons requested the swine, the dirty detestable creature, and, at the time, forbidden to eat. Kinda tells us the nature of these creatures, doesn't it? (rhetorical). So, to answer your question directly, "how did satan survive the flood", Scripture does not say, directly. And lastly: You are absolutely correct, Jesus is our well spring of Living Water. terrib Maybe you would like to fill-in your profile. It is always interesting to know about other brothers and sisters and some of their experiences. |
