Yes, i beleive that. Otherwise how else could he offer all the kingdoms of the world to Jesus when satan was tempting him if they weren't satan's to begin with.
The book of Daniel has some amazing scriptures of insight into this. In chapter 10, an angel describes opposition from a prince of persia and then talks about a prince of greece also. Obviously , the only force that can oppose an angel would be a demon.

Yes, it is true that the spirit son that rebelled against the Creator, Jehovah God, and then earned the name "Satan the Devil" or Deceiver, is the ruler of this world or system of things on Earth. Revelation 12:7 "And war broke out in heaven: Mi′cha·el and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled 8 but it did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any longer in heaven. 9 So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him."
Revelation 12:12"Â On this account be glad, YOU heavens and YOU who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to YOU, having great anger, knowing he has a short period of time.”
Satan also offered all the kingdoms of the earth to Jesus if he would do one act of worship to him, of course Jesus told him to get away from him.
We also read in John 14:30 "I shall not speak much with YOU anymore, for the ruler of the world is coming. And he has no hold on me"
also in 2 Corinthians 4:3Â "If, now, the good news we declare is in fact veiled, it is veiled among those who are perishing, 4Â among whom the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine through."

The devil/ Satan is a Christian myth to scare people into obedience.

Satan was the Hindu diety Indra, demonized by Jehovah the war God. Indra has no interest in this world, although Tyr and Fenrir might;)

The "Anti-Christ" has a name. It's 'Personal Agenda'. And it's mark on our hands and foreheads of 666? Just meaning the actions and thoughts are less than perfect. "The Beast" has always been with us, because the nature and situations of mankind are always changing, always struggling, always evolving. "The Beast" is within each of us.
An externalized character like Satan gives humans the ability to say "not our kind", "not me", an excuse for detachment for any personal or social responsibility, and an explanation for things too horrible for our hearts or minds to deal with.
Nothing more, nothing less.

What Blog?
But, yes he is, according to the Bible.
Earth is the domain of Satan, Death was the domain of the Daughter of God, but she got tired of taking away life all the time, so she was removed from that position and Jesus was given the title of the Lord of Death.
There is nothing that I can find that says which domain the Daughter of God now controls.
The domain of Man is the domain of All Animals. Most people miss this - but we were given a domain of command and control.

No. I believe that the concept of an evil being was created by early politico-religious leaders to control the masses through fear-based living and to keep them in line.

I know the bible says satan is the god of the world.
but he is not legally ordained to be!
and i think the war in heaven has fallen to the earth because it is written: woe unto the inhabitants of the earth.
I think these two gods are satan and messiah. One is trying to depose the other. and one is trying to undermine dominion and KEEP what he can take.

2 Cor 4:4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
