2 | satin on earth Why | James 4:7 | biblicalman | 227826 | ||
God did not 'send Satan to earth'. He cast him out of the heavens because of sin and because of his activities. Like all angels Satan was created by God. We do not know why angels fell and sinned (they too had free will) but we have examples in 2 Peter 2.4; Jude 1.6. Satan was clearly one of the chief angels. And he sinned. But we must not see him as 'almost as powerful as God.' Like us he is helpless in God's hands. From the moment he fell he was doomed and he became the enemy of God and of His people. LIke sinful man, sinful angels were not immediately destroyed. That awaits the judgment. But all is made by God to work to fulfil His purposes (Romans 8.28). However, God's true people are protected from Satan's worst excesses, and we can fight him by submitting to God (James 4.7). With Michael the archangel we have to say 'The LORD rebuke you' (Jude 1.9) |
