Answer 1

Satan the Devil is to blame for every human death which has ever occurred.

The Scriptures teach that God currently tolerates Satan's killing of humans; Satan kills by means of Adamic sin, debauched conditions in Satan's world, and personally or by demons.

(Job 1:12-19) Jehovah said to Satan: "Look! Everything that [Job] has is in your hand. Only against him himself do not thrust out your hand!" So Satan went out away from the person of Jehovah. 13 Now it came to be the day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their brother the firstborn. ...18 [A servant of Job] came and proceeded to say: "Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their brother the firstborn. 19 And, look! there came a great wind from the region of the wilderness, and it went striking the four corners of the house, so that it fell upon the young people and they died.


The Scriptures teach that Satan is inclined to kill humans, and prevent the salvation of individuals.

(John 8:44) You are from YOUR father the Devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a manslayer when he began, and he did not stand fast in the truth, because truth is not in him.

(1 Peter 5:8) Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone.


If Adam and Eve had never sinned, the Scriptures teach that they never would have died. When Satan targeted Eve and Adam to become sinners, Satan knew that mankind would NOT continue to have everlasting life. Thus Satan is really to blame for every human death that has ever occured.

(Genesis 2:16,17) Jehovah God also laid this command upon the man: "From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die."

(Genesis 3:1) Now the serpent... began to say to the woman: "Is it really so that God said you must not eat from every tree of the garden?"

(Romans 5:12) Through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin


Jehovah is eager to undue everything that the Devil has done, and Jehovah has assigned Jesus Christ to perform this restoration. It will be accomplished soon.

(1 John 3:8) The Devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was made manifest, namely, to break up the works of the Devil.

(1 Corinthians 15:21) For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a man.


Those who do not believe that the earth will be restored to Edenic paradise conditions seem too-quick to believe that a lowly creature (such as Satan) could actually CHANGE the divine purposes of Almighty Jehovah God. Jehovah put mankind in paradise earth, and Jehovah will make sure that mankind lives forever in paradise earth, despite a delay which will shorter and shorter as human lifetimes extend toward infinity.

(Isaiah 65:17-25) For here I am creating new heavens and a new EARTH; and the former things will not be called to mind, neither will they come up into the heart. ...21 And they will certainly build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. 22 They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating. For like the days of a tree will the days of my people be; and the work of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full. ...25 The wolf and the lamb themselves will feed as one, and the lion will eat straw just like the bull [caps added]

(Revelation 21:1-4) And I saw a new heaven and a new EARTH; for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, and the sea is no more. ...Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. [caps added]

(Genesis 1:28) God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill THE EARTH and subdue it [caps added]
(Genesis 2:17) You must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die [so never eating from that tree means never dying]
(Psalms 37:11) 'the meek will possess the earth'
(Proverbs 2:21) 'upright will reside in the earth'
(Isaiah 45:18) 'God formed the earth to be inhabited'
(Matthew 5:5) 'the mild will inherit the earth'

Answer 2

What if most people were actually praying to Lucifer aka Satan instead and didn't know it? Is that what you mean? I think that's what you mean. That would be kind of ironic to say the least. Well Satanists don't promote their religion they would prefer for people to come to them.

Answer 3

In Psalms, it states, God is the Hearer of Prayers. Since there is only one God, then that one God hears your prayers. Jesus himself taught us to pray to our Heavenly Father. If you direct your prayers to another, say St. George, then I'm afraid God will listen but not act. And, come on! Greedy for attention? He has billions of angels at his beck and call. But as a loving father, he does care what his wayward children are up to.

Answer 4

Because God is an IMMEDIATE HELP
in times of trouble.

He has proved it to me. I ask him to...because people never mean what they say OR say what they mean...

so I ask the Lord if He was the same.... He and only Him{because I told NO one else} started doing amazing things in my life.

One time my life was in danger {like being killed} I thought of a Scripture in my mind....and the cops showed up out of the blue...it was amazing....there is sooooo much more....that's the God I know...He is wonderful.

The Scripture was this one....
Ep 3:20
NOW into Him who IS able to do exceeding abundantly ABOVE ALL that we ASK or THINK.

HE will PROVE HIS SELF to you too.



P.S
Whoever is thumbing me down and turning me in to yahoo...it's NOT making me mad...it is childish...

Answer 5

Have no worry. The living God will not 'show up' and pretend to be your pagan deity as you say, when you pray to your little tin god. But He will hear, and you will answer for it, be assured. You have already been turned over to a reprobate mind, clearly. He is the great one, the 'I am', which created the heavens and the earth. He does not need to pretend to be anything. Your knee shall bow, and your tongue shall confess that He is God. Pray that it is not too late when you do.

Answer 6

I know exactly who I am praying to because I direct the prayer to which ever God, Goddess, ancestor or land spirit I happen to be honoring.

If you pray to Thor, for example, Anubis is not going to answer. It just common sense.

And YHVH, (who you refer to as Jehovah) is not going to just show up unless you specifically invoke him.

Answer 7

Baphomet wasn't really a god, but a symbolic archetype, similar to Abraxas. EDIT: I understand.

Answer 8

Sorry--I guess you don't. Kind of like when you dial a phone number. Who usually answers? Somebody you don't really know, or the person you called??

Answer 9

Dude, just keep praying to whoever or whatever answers your prayers. It doesn't matter, all gods are the same. The only difference is that some think they're too good to listen to lowly humans.

Answer 10

God is God and answers to any name you call it in your understanding.
