Subject: how did satan survive the flood? |
Bible Note: Hello 29602004, Actually, I did answer your question. Spiritual beings do not have to go anywhere while the physical world is being affected. I can give no better answer because we have no idea what the spiritual world looks like. The flood did not put him on the run. Living (running) water was a word picture the Lord Jesus used to help the woman of Sychar understand who she was talking to. It had nothing to do with Satan. Gen 7:23 says nothing about Satan watching all the people of the earth go to hell or having the victory. You assumed that. Steve |
