I think that a lot of people have not been able to distinguish the difference between the majestic power that our Heavenly Father bestows upon us and we know that God is forgiving and the Devil does not forgive. Yes, we must fear God to a certain degree to show that we respect him, and if we go into places that we know that we shouldn't, then these people probably fear more of the devil because they have trampled on his throne for a while. All they have to do is pray to God and ask for forgivness and God will forgive them, if they are a Child of the King. I do not know why people fear the Devil more than God, but if this held true in today's society, we would not have as much crime, because think about it this way, if they fear the devil and are more afraid of him, then they would turn thier hearts and lives around and give it to the Almighty Father and this is what this world and alot of the people that live here need to do.
The time is nearing for the Lord's 2nd coming, and if they are not ready, then they will face the wrath of Hell.

I don't know, I am not afraid of the devil, because the devil is afraid of God too.
God is more powerful than the devil, and the devil knows this, otherwise, he wouldn't keep trying to win the war, by trickery of man. He's been messing with God's creation since the beginning of time, and hasn't stopped yet. If he thought he was winning, he'd have given up ages ago.

The Devil is a human created being. They do this so they won't have to blame God for anything. I've never seen anyone who lost their own child blame the Devil. They always blame God. And of course Christians defend God by saying "it's His will".
Why would the devil be "God's will"?

People are more afraid of the Devil instead of God, because they haven't learned of the truth when they sin.
God sent his son, Christ Jesus, to die on a cross for our sin debt. Everything that's wrong with me, you, and everyone reading this was ALREADY paid for, a little over 2000 years ago.
The problem is belief. Once you fully grasp that the "sting" of sin has no effect on your relationship with God, because Christ's sacrifice, his very blood satisified the wrath you, and I, and everyone deserve, it's then understood that we live now under Grace, and sin, while still existant, has no effect on our relationship with God.
We've been reconciled to him, to be presented blameless before him. But the devil, here on earth will send every kind of message to you to tell you that's not true. And if he can't convince you that's not true, then he'll try and confuse you with what your "sins mean" or how they "effect God" or something crazy like that.
All of us, everyone of us, have been reconciled, and been presented blameless before God. If you choose to reject that free gift of reconciliation, and STILL try to figure something out on your own.....you're not believing God, and wasting your time.
Dont' believe me because I'm some guy on the internet saying it. It's right there in history to see that Christ died on the cross, and the bible clearly explains it's meaning. Sin has no effect anymore. It's not a liscense to go running around doing whatever we want, it's a liscense to live freely thanking God in everything we do now.

The devil steals,kills, temptates people , basically he is a bad guy and i think that if everyone would follow God and His Son then they wouldnt have to worry about the devil because he is a jealous spirit and wants people to worship him im afraid of the devil physcally but im stronger than him spiritualy i would rather be in heaven so if i want to go there i had better be on my best behavior and follow my father in heaven,God and The Lord Jesus Christ forgive you of sins and they help you, he (the devil) cant help you he just wants u to think that he can, he cant help me so im not asking for his help nor do i want anything to do with him i dont want him to do anything for me

People are afraid of devil because they afraid of getting harm by devil.God is not to be afraid,but to be respect ,worship and trust.By respecting and worshiping God,you will not commit sin because you are following his teaching and should't be afraid of devil since you have faith in god

I do not believe in haunted houses or ghosts.
Therefore, the Devil cannot come against me and bring me down.

we know God has infinite mercy, the devil and daemons however... now that's scary ****. pissing off God doesn't have it's consequences until way down the line (hopefully at least a little while), but if you anger something from the other side, you never know

I fear nothing for their spiritual origins, including the devil, God, or ghosts. I would fear any of them, God included, if they were shooting at me with a real .357 Magnum.
