Answer 1

He was the "anointed cherub" -- Satan is the "father of lies". -- "the god of this world" -- "the prince of this world" -- The Adversary,-- The Accuser of the brethren, -- The devil,-- The enemy. -The Thief..."and a Murderer"

The two Scripture passages that describe Satan before he fell are Ezekiel 28:12-19 and Isaiah 14:12-15.
Satan was the “anointed cherub” (Ezekiel 28:14).
He was adorned with every precious jewel imaginable (Ezekiel 28:13).
He was “the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty”
(Ezekiel 28:12b).
Likely he was the highest of all angels. He was persuasive enough to convince one-third of the angels to join him in his rebellion (Revelation 12:4). Even after his fall from heaven, not even Michael the archangel dares to stand up to him without the Lord’s help (Jude 9).
Satan fell because of pride. He did not like being “second best”. He wanted to be God: “You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain’” (Isaiah 14:13).
The Bible calls him "the god of this world," and says that he blinds the minds of unbelievers. Jesus called him "the prince of this world," and "the father of lies."
You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do.
He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. John 8:44

But rise, and stand upon your feet: for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness... To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins... Acts 26:16-18

Answer 2

Know this Satan has many names but he started out with a simple name like Lucifer and one day when he was in heaven he thought he should be as powerful as God so when he approached the Lord with his big idea he got booted off the island down to dwell on the earth with all his people, his tribe if you will, He is also the Legion a scary bunch of spirits that inhabit your body and make you seem insane. Good story check it out in the bible the demon possessed man and the drowning of the pigs

Answer 3

Firstly, I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast

Satan (arabic name is Iblis most accurately translated as Diablos) is from the Jinn (not Angels which are made from light), he made from the smokeless flame of fire. He is adamant enemy of our greatest grandfather Adam. He was to arrogant and conceited to prostate to Adam at the request of God, since Adam was made from mud (a little higher level thinking reveals that both carbon and water are the constituents of mud).

He is consistenly working to lead mankind astray to proof to God that he is superior over us humans.

But he can only have power of those who leave the path of God and are led astray by his temptations.

He is apart of the unholy Trinity who trys to force everyone to worship him and then sets out to work threw humanity to destroy the earth. He's a copy cat and trys to sew his spirit in humanity by a unholy "baptism/Possessed" threw spreading occult games and practices threw society and seducing people to participate. Then when victim has fallen into bondage to Witchcraft/Demonic powers they are forced to go threw Transcendental meditation ceremony and except worship of all Gods, which includes him. This is known as idolatry and strictly forbidden by God. You use to be able to see people using the Horn sign quite often and showing there affiliation, but since the gulf war it has become more hush hush. Oh I'm sorry New World Order it's suppose to be a secrete society. Lowering the all seeing eye on the Capstone of American currency is Unholy baptism/ possession.

Answer 5

George W, bush is satan!!! Oprah Winfre Is satan Rosie Odonel Is Beelzibub!!!

Answer 6

Yes, he does exist first of all.
To answers who he is, I am not sure how to explain.
There is no human on earth who is satan. Satan is just another name for the fallen angel Lucifer who rebelled against god. He dwells in Hell, but he comes to earth not as a human, but as temptation.
So one might say he is everyone and no one. He is every one that sins, but there is the other side of the equation, God/Jesus. Jesus is no human on earth, but he is every one, and no one. He is inside every human who has sinned and asked for forgivness, and he is every one who excepts his word.

Answer 9

He is a spiritual being, that when created was very beautiful and was also a 'son of God' when he saw Adam and Eve giving their praise and worship to Almighty God he became jealous of God and tried to get Adam and Eve to turn away from God and worship him, unfortunately he suceeded, and he continues to influence mankind, that is why there is so much hatred, and dishonesty, and lack of love in the world, that is why so many people in this system suffer. God does not want this to continue, before He stops the things that are happening, we must turn our life styles around and learn from Him, as to do what He requires of us.
