Yes.
2 Co 4:4 ;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.
1 John 5:19; We know we originate with God but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.
John 12:31; Now there is a judging of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.
In John 12:31 notice how it states that the ruler is going to be cast out. and in 1 Jo 5:19 we are all lying in the power of the wicked one. and 2 Co 4:4 the god of this system would be who? no other then Satan who else would blind the minds of the unbelievers?

He controls many people--who participate in controlling the world.
But he doesn't control everybody, so he doesn't control the whole earth. God is in control.
Satan is ruling the world, but that doesn't mean he controls it.
However he does have great influence right now.

According to what I've read in the bible, Yes, satan is in control of the world but rest assured, God is watching and still does his work in secret. The weather all around us is an example that shows that God is still around us.

No he is not, God is still in control. It might seem that satan is controlling the world right now but it had been predicted in the bible that these are signs of the end times. If you want more info, you can e mail me

God is always in control. Just like with Job, however, God gives Satan permission to do things from time to time. Not only that, but our human nature is sinful...and as you can tell from many comments in Yahoo! Answers...an ever-increasing number of people in our generation have abandoned God and replaced Him with themselves. All of this is allowed by God, who is patient and long-suffering. His wrath will come...and in time, every knee will bow, proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord.
Christians are to remain faithful, and be the light in an ever-darkening world.

The Bible declares him to be the god of this world...he is controlling the world by blinding those who are enemies of both the Cross and Gospel. Further, many are willing accomplices.

yes look around at the depravity of man, God is ultimately in control and He calls all the shots--He will end this world at His will. This is biblical. For now Satan prowls around a like lion seeking whom he may devour--so God sees who turns to Jesus and who refuses Him. Unbelievers will be without excuse on that day.

yes
Job 9:24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
The wicked one is satan and he is the god of this world
2Co 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
