1 | Is the devil a personification of my sin | Bible general Archive 1 | torch81 | 72084 | ||
It is my theory that the devil is not an entity unto himself but rather a personification of the ways in which we separate ourselves from God. Under this theory a Tri-omni God still exists. Jesus still has saving power over our sins. This power is even more real and personal since he defeated OUR individual, personal failings and weaknesses. This theory assumes that the Bible should be understood at least partially, allegorically. I welcome your feedback. Pax! |

2 | Is the devil a personification of my sin | Bible general Archive 1 | David_24597 | 72085 | ||
Yes, the devil is a real person. Isa. 14:12-20; Ezek. 28:13-19. Who was it that tempted Jesus in the wilderness? Matt. 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13. I can't think of where it is right now but even Jesus said that he saw Satan fall from heaven. And Paul said the devil is transformed into an angel of light. (II Cor. 11:14). Rev. 12 even records a war in heaven between Michael and His angels and Satan and his angels. | ||||||
