Are Christian's ever responible for their own human actions?
Is Satan always to blame?

It's a bypass to responsibility. Hey wait.....................Satan made me get drunk .......................Satan made me get fat by eating junk food....................Satan made me bang that chick...........................Hey I'm a great guy!!!! It's that Satan guy! I'm converting so Jesus may wash away my lack of will power with his blood. I'll eat crackers and drink grape juice to remember him.

It didn't work for Adam and Eve. Blaming someone else still doesn't work.
Satan tempts, but he doesn't sin for us. We give in to the temptation.
Christians (and everyone else for that matter) are responsible for their own actions.
There is a sense in which Satan bears some responsibility in that he provides the temptation. But God will deal with that. No matter what Satan does, God provides a means of escape. We do not have to take the bait and sin. Temptation is not an excuse to sin.

The word Satan means the accuser of the brethren. Every person will be judged according to their relationship with Jesus Christ. Each of us is responsible for our own actions, no excuses. It is hard for us to accept this, because now we believe "everything is relative" and have rejected absolute truth. "For by grace we have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man boast." Ephesians 2:8 Believe in Jesus, this is the absolute truth. Ezekiel 3:17-21

It's not really satan to blame because yes! he tempts you but it's all about choice. You can choose to do the right thing or bad so it's you really to blame. Did I answer your question. You can email me if you want.

No- satan can put things in your mind, but you can always resist, or give in. In the end the choice is yours!

according to the bible Satan only did as he was ordered, i find it very sad that people bash him when they dont know him. also satanists are a lot nicer than christians, christians whould kill you for not believing what they do and ive yet to see a satanist do this.

whether you ar echristian, Muslim, or Jews, you ar eresponsible for your actions. satan can just seduce you to do things, its you yourself who makes the final decision.
Just like in the garden of Eden satan seduced Eve to eat teh apple, he didn't take teh apple and put into her mouth......it was her decision to do that.

Flip Wilson started that.
I am responsible for my own actions.

We have free will. To place the blame elsewhere is a cop-out.
