1 | Does satan's army have military ranking? | Rom 8:37 | mercey | 41040 | ||
Eph. 6:12 talks about not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Is this ranking order of satan kingdom and if so where does territorial spirit rank? | ||||||
2 | Does satan's army have military ranking? | Rom 8:37 | Love Fountain | 41080 | ||
Dear Mercey, I agree with CDBJ, and would like to explore on the word principalities in a singular tense as principality by definition. In the Webster's Ninth New College Dictionary the definition of the word principality is 1a: the state, office or authority of a prince (remember Eph 2:2, satan is called the prince of the power of the air) b: the position or responsibilities of a principal(as of a school) 2: the territory or jurisdiction of a prince: the country that gives title to a prince 3: plural: an order of angels - see CELESTIAL HIERARCHY Then I looked up celestial hierarchy and it says, celestial hierarchy (noun)1883: A traditional hierarchy of angels ranked from lowest to highest into the following nine orders: 1) angels 2) archangels 3) principalities 4) powers 5) virtues 6) dominions 7) thrones 8) cherubim 9) seraphim I can't say that I have read the ranking of angels in the Bible according to my Webster's but I do find it interesting that most of the words are used in the Bible and the definition of the word principality, links to the word celestial hierarchy. I am not sure what you mean by "territorial spirit rank"? I would guess that satan has made many false promises to those who shall follow him and by his false promises many are deceived through their beliefs in his words which are always lies. John 8:44 He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. KJV Satans kingdom is among many other things, greed driven and within greed we find inequality and within inequality we find uneven levels of order which allows interpretation of various orders of rank. Bless you, Love Fountain 1 Cor 15:40 40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. KJV |

satan has no order. Read Gen. 1:2, satan was already here, earth had no order. He stoled the authority from Adam, and Jesus took it back!!! God Blessings to you |

Dear heisthe1, I do not so easily underestimate the enemy nor do I agree with punching satan as you stated to CDBJ. We are taught in the Bible not to fight evil with evil and to punch anyone is evil in my belief. I do not read Gen 1:2 with the same understanding as you as a referrence to a lack of order on satans part. Satan has order but his followers do not follow in his plan because they are to busy fighting eachother trying to be number one in their pursuits of self exaltation, pride and greed among many other traits the Bible lays out for our witness. Bless you, Love Fountain Matt 10:16 16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. KJV |

No punching, ok, how about a headache, that way you don't hurt his feelings. Jesus did't underestimate the devil either, He hit him with the Word of God everytime. Put some light on Gen 1:2 this world was in darkness because he (satan) was here. You work out your own salvation and I will do likewise. Stay busy in the things of God and you don't have to worry about that lying devil, believe me you will know when he shows up. Thank you for your response. Now when he shows up give him a headache, and I'll give him a black eye :) God bless You Love Fountain |
