Satan is a real angel of darkness. He has much power on this earth. He is the prince of the power of the air. He is the Prince of Persia who Michael the Arch Angel was fighting in Daniel. He transforms himself into an angel of light. He is not an ugly beast. His pride is what got him in touble in the first place. Isaiah 14:12-19 is about Satan, as is Ezekiel 28:l2-19. He is our adversary, yes. He is God's adversary, also, and he wants to destroy everything that is of God, including you and me. He wants us dead. So, don't you be fooled. God created Satan; not to be evil; that was Satan's choice. But God created him and He can handle him. He already has. The victory has been won through Jesus death and resurrection, and Satan knows this. But he wants to take everyone he can with him to the firey pit of hell. Janae. |

You state "God created Satan; not to be evil; that was Satan's choice. But God created him and He can handle him". Would you mind giving me the reference on this idea? First of all where or when did He create him? I agree that Jesus has destroyed the adversary.. James 1:15 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Hebrews 2:14 14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; Okay, lets see now, Jesus died and He destroyed sin (power of death) by His own dying. Is that correct? How could satan know this if he was destroyed when Jesus died? Why do you have to be coerced into believing? Is it not a free choice? I thought we covered Isaiah 14:12 or Ezekiel 28:11. It has nothing to do with a satan The word itself, the Hebrew saÆtaÆn, is simply an "adversary," (not a thing with a pitchfork and horns) Isaiah 12:4 tells exactly who it is addressed to : 4That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased! And not some superhuman being! Ezekiel 28:11 says the King of Tyrus: Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 12Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769. |

Greetings He-man! Let's touch upon Heb. 2:14! The word translated as 'destroy' does not mean 'cease to exist' in Heb. 2:14. It means to 'make ineffective' or 'to nullify'. Satan clearly still exists after the death of Christ. Here are some of the references that still speak of his existence after the death of Christ. Eph. 4:27 commands Christians not to give the Devil a foothold. This would be meaningless if the Devil no longer existed. 2 Tim. 2:26 speaks of praying for those who have been taken captive by the Devil. This would be meaningless if the Devil no longer existed. James 4:7 tells us to resist the Devil. This would be meaningless if the Devil no longer existed. 1 Pet. 5:8 tells us that the Devil prowls (present tense) around like a lion seeking whom he may devour. This would be meaningless if the Devil no longer existed. Rev. 2:10 says that some will be put in prison by the Devil. This would be meaningless if the Devil no longer existed. Rev. 20:20 speaks of the Devil being thrown into the lake of fire at the last judgement. This would be meaningless if the Devil no longer existed. So, do you really want to argue that the Devil no longer exists? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
