Most of the time, I don't think of him. But he's real, just like God is. We should be aware that we have an enemy. Otherwise, we can lose many battles, not knowing we are in a war.

I try not to have my own thoughts about Satan. He would twist them in his favor for sure. So instead I look to what God has to say about the Prince of Darkness!
The serpent who tempted Eve in the Garden of Eden(Genesis 3:4 & Genesis 3:14)
Satan (1 Chronicles 21:1) the adversary playing the role of prosecuting attorney in a heavenly court with God and the angels (Job 1:6 & Zechariah 3:1-2 & 1 Peter 5:8)
as the devil (from the Greek "diabolos" which means "slanderer"),
the tempter of Jesus (Matthew 4:1-3, Luke 4:2)
the prince of the demons, Beelzebub (Matthew 12:24, Mark 3:22, Luke 11:15)
unclean spirit (Matthew 12:43)
the evil one (Matthew 13:19 & 1 John 2:13)
the author of all evil (Luke 10:19)
a murderer and the father of lies (John 8:44)
the prince of this world (John 12:31 & 14:30 & 16:11)
a demon able to enter into a human body (John 13:27)
god of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4)
Belial (2 Corinthians 6:15)
prince of the powers of the air, the spirit that now works in the sons of disobedience (Ephesians 2:2)
power of darkness (Colossians 1:13)
an adversary, like a roaring lion who walks about seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8)
the angel of the abyss, named Abaddon in Hebrew,
Apollyon in Greek (Revelation 9:11)
a great red dragon (Revelation 12:3 & 12:9 & 20:2)
the accuser of our brethren who accuses Christians before
God day and night (Revelation 12:10)
the dragon, the old serpent (Revelation 20:2)

Called the Prince of this World, satan is a created being who thinks he can live without God.
His best puppet is someone who believes that he is just a little man with horns and a tail, and a little red suit.
Better yet, just think he doesn't exist....then he owns you...

I think Satan is a way of thinking or being in a human being.

I don't believe in Satan. Satan was made up by a bunch of superstitious people way back in the day and I refuse to give any power to such a silly idea.

Hi and good morning....Lucifer or aka as "Satan" was one of Gods angels who became insanely jealous and greedy so God had him removed from the Heaven and gave him 1/4 of the world to rule. Now God didn't say what part. I believe thru my learning's from my religion and my beliefs that Lucifer was an angel of God. What really happened who knows. In my own opinion and what I believe is that Lucifer is jealous of God because God payed more attention to us, His children than His first creation, which were His angels. So Lucifer to me is having a race against God to see how many souls he can obtain before the second coming of Christ. Lucifer hates us so much because we were Gods favorite so do speak. So to hurt God, Lucifer will collect as many souls that he can. Have a blessed day!

Satan is a man made concept like the boogy man. It's easier to control someone if there is always a "or else" factor.

Although we ask forgiveness of God, sometimes it might be better asking mercy of Satan. I keep thinking about that hot poker, so I don't particularly wanna piss the Dark Angel off. I am a sinner:((

Other than the wee problem that he doesn't exist.As he is cast in the movie called "THE BIBLE" I think he is a hero,who stood up against tyranny,and although defeated,doesn't mean he was wrong. Seriously,1 out of 3 angels followed him. Must have been some SERIOUS issues with god's god ship up there
