Bible Note: Greetings Mike! This site can be a lot of fun! I understand what you are saying, but I am always one who encourages people not to say more than Scripture actually says. Scripture simply doesn't say that Satan reigns here on earth. John 14:30 does speak of a 'prince of this world', who many would say is Satan. However, John 12:31 seems to indicate that his 'rule' ended with the death and resurrection of Christ. Further, I am not sure that 'reign' or 'rule' would ever be appropriate terms for Satan's activities on earth simply because he does not possess the power to rule over God. :-) Thus, in your passage from Revelation, I would say that the binding is not a stopping of Satan's reign, but a stopping of his influence on this world - period! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
