Questions about Satan?

Question

Does Satan rule this world?

Does Satan want us to obey God or him?

Did Satan succeed in convincing people not to obeys God's Commandments?

2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

If Satan is opposite everything that is Godly, What would his bible say?

Is Sacrificing the innocent Satanic? If so, Are Unborn babies the most innocent? Has Satan convinced you yet, that its ok?

If Satan showed himself to you, would you not run to God for help? Do you think its in his best interest to convince you that He and God doesn't exsist?

This comment is for the person that believes Christians sacrifice the innocent because of Jesus, died on the cross.

God is against Killing.

Exodus 20:13 - Thou shalt not kill.

God is against Killing unborn babies.

E21:
22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.

The wages of sin is death.

All have sinned, and fallen short; God gave his Only Begotten son, who was innocent, to be a willing sacrifice (in place of animals).

God didn't make anybody sacrifice Jesus. But Jesus was killed. Jesus could have called the angels for help, but did not protest because he loved THE WORLD, THAT THROUGH HIM THE WORLD MIGHT BE SAVED!

Those that killed will have to stand judgement for their actions, I wouldn't want to be them.

Another scripture:
Leviticus 18:21 ,2 kings 17:17

Answer 1

The Bible says that Satan is the prince of this world. Satan wants you to NOT obey God. Satan convinced Eve and Adam to disobey God. Satan stands for everything opposite of God. Sacrificing innocent people IS Satanic.

Answer 2

Who is Satan? What is Satan? Where is Satan? Show me Satan? Is Satan there or here? Well? Does Satan exist? Somebody has to have seen him because a lot of people talk about him. Oh I see. If you are looking in the Bible only I guess Satan is in the Bible only. Is that really true though? Are there references to Satan elsewhere? Does Satan have a history outside of the Bible? Are there earlier references to Satan in older cultures? How would I know because my head is jammed in a Bible only? Pretend you are in a shoe store. Here is the analogy. Some Christians not only are unaware of the shoe store's origin, building date, history or even that it IS a shoe store - they are also and more importantly unaware that they are still IN a covered shoe box on the shelf. A shoe is a thing created by humans: an artifact. Satan is an idea that has been around for a very long time and predates Christianity and Judaism. Of course a Christian would not believe this because that is not in the Bible. There is no sense in conducting a rational debate about the historical literary Satan or anything else unless a person is willing to listen. Your question seems more rhetorical. In quoting the Bible you seem to be answering your own question and using it as a springboard for a statement.

Speaking is something Christians can do well. Listening on the other hand is quite a different matter entirely. Listen to this. Satanists do not sacrifice anything, not human or animal. Listen to this. Sacrifice is in the BIBLE. Now where are you going to run?

How do you conduct a two-way debate with a one-sided mind? Knowledge effects you on many levels. Whether something is true or factual is not relevant to a believer of faith. If you have been told something all your life and even if new evidence presents itself - you will tend to support the former idea. You have to understand the "Christian Mind." Most Christians see the world as black and white: no shades of grey. Either you are or are not a Christian. There is no other way to look at it. If you are not a Christian you are lost. Part of every Christian’s salvation and “Ticket to Heaven” is inextricably linked to several essential factors and one of which is to “Spread the Good News.” This is known as Evangelism. Yes. You have to endure the Christian’s witty incite filled pejorative analysis with cut downs and invidious diminutive behavior. It is their duty to explain to you what a looser you are for not being a Christian and what winners they are for being on the winning side. Although it seems like insecurity at first glance I feel it somehow reenforces some need to show they are superior. Wait, that's the same thing. . .right? Typical Christian comments are, “Are you still practicing that Witchcraft. . .come BACK to Christ.” “Hinduism is just a bunch of Pagans. . .FIND the Lord.” “You KNOW you are lost without Christ.” “The Bible SAYS. . .” They assume you should agree with them because they assume what they are saying is the ONLY way to look at it.

Answer 3

If God is the all-powerful creator then everything comes from God, including of course, Satan. Therefore, your question is one of circular logic. Following your perspective, which is a christian one I presume from the way you talk, then God rules everything. That means God decided to create Satan and to have this whole notion of sin and of salvation through Christ who died for our sins and all that. If there were no Satan, then there would be no sin, and what would we need to be saved from? God is behind all this, if you believe in the christian worldview. That means obviously he planned it all out and everything is going according to his plan. It's obvious God created Hell, if he didn't that would mean there are 2 Gods out there creating things.

No point questioning if Satan rules the world or whatnot. Satan and Hell - just like Christ, Heaven, and everything else - is created by God. Unless you believe there are 2 Gods, in which case who is the 2nd one? Satan? I think not.

Answer 4

Yes I agree that sacrificing the innocent is Satanic, unquestionably. That is why I do not accept the Christian doctrine of the cross, which is an abomination and blasphemy and the holy angels can't look at it.

Answer 5

If sacrificing the innocent is satanic, then god is in big trouble. He did plenty of that in the OT. Especially babies.

Answer 6

If we trust in God and settle for Jesus in our hearts finished heartedly, we've a much better wide wakeful when we sin. God forgives our sins when we bypass to him and repent. Hell is if you by no skill believed/or by no skill widely used/or fell faraway from God (through sinning and by no skill repenting) Hell is the position devil belongs and the position devil's followers finally end up there. yet devil does no longer rule over hell. it really is the Almighty God who has means over the universe (which skill each little thing in this international out and in) what's major actuality is that devil is doing each little thing he can to make people fall into hell. only understand this, devil is a liar, the accuser, a thief and a very sneaky and smart that's why he fell from being an angel because he had to be more advantageous than God.

Answer 7

Ronin, he didn't sacrifice babies. He didn't sacrifice anything. It was man that had to sacrifice unto God lambs and other animals. Animals don't have souls, for God put the breath of life into only man.

Answer 8

If we draw near to God, we are in a good place to not let satan's devices affect us.

As a matter of fact, we can be on the offensive!

James 4.7-8
Submit yourselves, then, to God. resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Come near to God and he will come near to you.

2 Cor. 11.14-15
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.

It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.

Answer 9

The word Satan and Jesus are interchangeable... see if logic works it out now.

Answer 10

I can almost guarantee, if you see satan, you will vomit.
