How come Christians are so smart by reading bible and know that GOD is the most powerfull been in thier dreams and poor devil don't get the point.
DO you think Devil had a chance to read the bible? May be we just should trow few bibles at him and he will get smart as Christian? Or may be that's where devil gets all his idea of being bad?
( I was inspired by got to make mispelling msitakes and since most of Christains are not inspired they can't blame for poor typing)
Therefore GOD and my inspiration exist.

The Bible means nothing to God or the devil, just people. I don't think the devil is stupid, he's actually supposed to be clever and smart...unlike your question. I'm a Christian and I don't think anybody is supposed to follow the Bible word for word, God didn't write the book now did he?
However, maybe you should read the Bible before making up stupid questions about devil and God because you are ignorant on the subject.

The devil was a fallen angel of God.... therefore he knows everything in the bible. He knows Christianity inside and out - which is why he cannot be underestimated. Through reading scripture, we are able to clearly see that our Lord is the only true ultimate source of power ... and this angers the devil to no end. The devil understands the bible my friend... he knows what is coming... but his desire to be "above" God in regards to power and authority is so intense that he will not stop destroying God's children... until Christ comes to rescue us - and even after that the devil will reign on earth... much to long to explain... but read Revelations. Don't be confused though - the devil is smart - remember that he can pose in any shape, form, person, etc and can trick even Christians (obviously because we all live in sin) into temptation and evil.... he can do this through any means neccessary - including manipulating the true meanings of the text in the Bible - which is why it is SO SO SO important to constantly ask Jesus to give you wisdom, knowledge, and understanding in him and his teachings....
I just read this above and was concerned...
"The Bible means nothing to God or the devil, just people. I don't think the devil is stupid, he's actually supposed to be clever and smart...unlike your question. I'm a Christian and I don't think anybody is supposed to follow the Bible word for word, God didn't write the book now did he?

In my response to this statement... whoever can call themselves a follower of Jesus, a Christian... and can then turn around and so easily judge his brother or sister in Christ is foolish. Maybe this person should read the Bible before making assumptions on what they "think" the Bible stands for. We SHOULD follow the bible word for word - but THANK GOD that there is a new testament or we would all burn in hell... God gave us life through his son Jesus - so that if we believe in him - that he died on the cross for our sins - we can go to heaven without living by the rules in the old testament... HOWEVER, we should want to follow his commandements and his teachings regardless.... that is what a relationship with Jesus is about - it's not about the religious aspect - it is about wanting to live for him... and in doing so he gave us the Bible through his disciples - So....OBVIOUSLY he cares about the Bible... it was the first book to ever be printed - and remains to be the most popular book in the history of the world.... God gave us the Bible so we can better understand him and his glory - and then to spread it all over the world so we can bring more of his children into the kingdom of heaven!!!

Why do you think 1/3 of the Angels would go to hell with the Devil?
Had to be a good reason, no I don't think the Devil convinced them he was God.
They knew he wasn't God...but maybe they didn't agree with what God was going to do.
Lets say the Devil loved God so much that he wanted to be one with God.
God didn't like this so he sent him to hell.
Maybe the other Angels didn't agree with Gods decision, so he sent them there too.
Would make more sense as to why they're all down there.
Kind of sad too, I see why they changed the Bible story.
I mean people may agree with the 1/3 Angels that went to hell.
Yes this is the original story.

The smartest thing the Devil ever did was convincing the world he didn't exist, thus the growing number of agnostics and atheists. Christians think the Devil is an idiot which was a great move on his part because now everyone underestimates him.

Girl, I am a strong believer of the Lord Jesus Christ, but still I wont play or make fun of the devil. Don't get in his territory, you might end up loosing.
You know that the devil knows the word of God, front to back... He is not stupid, he was just to proud of himself because he was to smart so he wanted to be God and that was his fall, desiring the throne of God.

The devil is not stupid. He knows the word of God better than most Christians, but he cannot be saved. The devil is the epitome of evil and is a liar.

Well Picasso you old artie you--inspiration (?) comes in all forms I suppose but I'm not sure about your's--you do seem to be somewhat pocessed of a spirit of religious subject matter though--a trip through your profile page reveals an obcession with things religious------Let me tell you something that I think you already know--Satan (for lack of a name most would recognize otherwise) is not stupid or dumb on any level--Any Bible wise Christian knows of their enemy's power and abilities and the strength of his armour--and as far as the Bible is concerned--Satan knows chapter and verse--can zap it on you in languages you don't even know of--let alone know--so--don't know where you get your "Stupid Devil" deal---don't really care ---But rest not quite so secure in the fact that Satan knows far more than any human is even aware that he knows ---he even knows YOU

The devil was originally in heaven. He is a fallen angel. He knows all about the bible, thats why he temps us to commit sins.

I think the person who say devil is smart would be the one whose known as devil in the world.

He is smarter than a lot of people but he was soooo stupid as to think he could seat in the throne of God. Be smart, repent and believe the gospel!
