Satan and his demons are very much alive and the Bible book of Revelation tells us that Satan does indeed have control, not only of all major religions of Christendom, but all false religion. All governments are under his control also. That is why the world is in such turmoil. False religion and political leaders condone wars and the shedding of innocent blood. They both look to the United Nations as mankind's only hope for peace, when God's heavenly government is who they should put their trust in. Man-made governments and all false religion will soon be replaced by God's Kingdom and it will rule over our earth and lovers of righteousness forever. (DANIEL 2:44 & PSALMS 37:9-11)

You are quite right there. I agree with you. When the devil was cast down from heaven he continued to wage his war against God and the human mind has been his most favoured battlefield. Reason, logic, modernistic views and all have all crippled up the church of God and the church is in the state where Samson was...no eyes and power gone.
2Co 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
The devil is operating right in the middle of most churches and yet the people dont know it. They chose to believe what this great so and so, proffesor or doctor of divinity tell them instead of taking the word of God.

You say, "The churches". This is pretty broad.
I agree that Satan has infiltrated a few for sure. The bible should be our guide and when YOUR/OUR church doctrine goes against the bible they are 'Antichrist".
Satan has not gained control of all the churches, God would never allow all that. Why are some mislead? Bible says that many would be, many Christians would and will be. bible says because they are not lovers of the truth. 2 Thes 2: 10 "They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness."
I've talked to many and showed them in the bible why their traditions go against bible teaching and they choose not to accept. I'm not talking minor disagreements on interpretation I'm talking huge doctrinal issues. And they choose to believe their traditions over the holy bible.
But I would not say Satan is in all churches AT ALL. Remember, church is 2 or more gathered in Christ's name!

The doctrines of the churches are based on lies. As far as saving the nation, as a whole the people alive won't do what God wants them to do. The president won't do what God wants him to. So we preach the good news to those who want to come out the nations and do what's right. This will be the nucleus of the paradise earth that Jesus is going to bring shortly.

Ok then. I don't know what is up with you. My grandfather was a minister and all of his sermons came straight from the Bible. I was very close to him so I know this to be true. I don't think the devil has control over the churches at all! I think you need to examine things a little more closely. We have a forgiving God!

Satan doesn't have control of our minds or the churches unless we allow him in. He is the accuser of men before God our Father. He plants the seeds...the thoughts of sin...but we in our "flesh" our sinful nature....choose to sin. It is our choice, not that we are controlled by the devil. We make the choice 24/7 to live as Christians...to say and do the right thing or to be in the "flesh" and sin.
Satan is our "accuser" or "adversary". The term Satan in Hebrew is derived from the root meaning "to oppose", "to be an adversary" or "to act as an adversary".
An enemy in war and peace...
An accuser before the judgment-seat....
An antagonist who puts obstacles in the way of Christians!
In the Book of Job, satan ("the adversary") is a prosecuting attorney against mankind in the heavenly court of God. Other angels are not mentioned by name. He is known as the accuser and is the angel which questions mankind's loyalty to God. He argues that man is only loyal because God gives them prosperity. He is the one who actually delivers all the ills upon Job to test his faith on Gods command.
Satan has no power over us or the church! The only power he has is what we GIVE HIM! He is under our feet in the name of JESUS and no weapon that he hurls at us will DEFEAT us!!!Stand in FAITH and be VICTORIOUS! Don't give the devil the opportunity to pull you down. Remember that satan is nothing but a loud mouthed coward who trembles and quakes at the mere mention of the name of JESUS!!!!!

i agree with you to an extent, the devil is the king of confusion and the master of deception.and is the main reason why the world is how it is.it seems that devil has infiltrated our minds and has somehow convinced us that material objects and money are the way of the world...helping others and the needy are the true ways of the true helpful and godly person...the way to god is through learning and researching god your self and not told what to think by others....knowledge is the only way to fight ignorance and hate(the tools of the devil)....learn more is my opinion,that's the way to fight the evil all around us(you)...
