Subject: Why will Satan be bound then loosed ? |
Bible Note: CDBJ, a couple further thoughts on Satan. After being lied to and deceived by Satan -- the two-bit scoundrel and dirty dog that he is -- for thousands of years, you'd think mankind would have caught on to his tricks by now. But have they? God's moral laws are ignored at every bend in the road. What God calls perversion society calls alternate lifestyles. What God calls sin society calls social or psychological maladjustment. God's absolutes become society's relativism. The modern world serves the god of humanism which allows each man to be his own god and thus having no need for the God of Scripture. Sin and Satan are relics of the past and belong to the by-gone age of myth, superstition and fable. Wars are waged and lives lost or ruined over a strip of land. Murders are commonplace, committed for the most trifling reasons or for no reason at all. Lying and deceptive practices are the daily norm in high places of government and business. People, young and old, are destroying both body and mind with drugs and alcohol. So then has mankind learned anything about the wiles of the devil? Not much. A few have, but only a few. --Hank |
