Subject: Are there any "people" created by Satan? |
Bible Note: Dear goodlife, Your rather lengthy treatise on the nonexistence of Satan is rather perplexing! Are you serious? You state,"if anyone would like to further discuss the issue of satans nonexistence I would be more then happy to accomodate them." Would you be so kind as to provide some scriptural basis for your contentions? You give absolutely none! As this is a Study Bible Forum you might do well to familiarize yourself with the guidelines:-) As to your contention that "man" created satan, this contradicts my understanding of the Doctrine of Satan! As to his nature, we know he is a created angelic being. He was created as part of the angelic realm (Eph. 6:11,12, Ezek.24:18) and was the highest in rank of them all ( Ezek. 28:12-14). As to the "non-existence os satan", how do you then account for the fact that 7 OT books and every NT writer refer to satan? Jesus Himself referred to satan (Matt.13:39, Luke 10:18,11;18)! According to your theory, the Apostle Paul wasted a lot of space in writing Ephesians 6:1-10 in commanding believers to "take up the whole armor of God?" Why are we admonished further in Eph. 6:16 to,"in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one." My friend, I'd be much more inclined to consider the relevence of what you say if you could provide proof. Other than that, you've only offered an opinion- and at that-not a very well founded one.
