Subject: Did Satan know God's plan for salvation |
Bible Note: I respectfully disagree Curt, Yes Satan was "kind of" quoting scripture. He left out "to keep you in all your ways" Psalm 91:11-12. and Satan was saying 'if' you are the son of God. The question was did Satan know God's plan for Salvation and the answer is no, he did not. Sure he knew something was up but the Devil can "quote" scripture all he wants but he does not know their meaning, and he does not know the mysteries of the word, especially God's plan of redemption through Jesus Christ. Jesus' resurrection and his ascending into heaven. He hadn't a clue. 1 Corinthians 2:7 "But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory". Colossians 1:26 "Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints". Romans 16:25 "Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began". 1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory."
