Bible Question:
Didn't the Lord know where Satan came from? What is the difference between roaming and walking around? What was Satan doing as he roamed and walked around? Steve |
Bible Answer: "Didn't the Lord know where Satan came from?" Of course He did. He was only acknowledging satan's presence here, and this does not in any way suggest that the Lord is not omniscient or all-knowing. "What is the difference between roaming and walking around?" To 'roam' is to wander aimlessly without any special plan or purpose. To walk simply means to exist and to make his presence known. "What was Satan doing as he roamed and walked around?" Causing people to sin and turning people away from God, finding ways to make people succumb to sin. Nolan |
