Please don’t tell me since you don’t believe in Satan, He can’t exist. If I don’t believe the sun will come up tomorrow, does my unbelief negate reality?

Why would Jesus (aka Satan) kill a fig tree for not bearing fruit? Did the fig tree not fruit on purpose?
Is this something the omnipotent and beneficent master of the universe do or what a spoiled degenerate child would do.
Obviously if he were really "God" he could turned the fig leaves into figs, didn't he do something similar with water and wine?
I guess the only answer you have is to report this and get it deleted. Haha

I suspect you're feeling very proud of yourself for your little "unbelief negate reality" line. Did you spend awhile thinking that one up? Is that why you keep repeating it?

First of all Satan is a play on Set, an Egyptian God. Lucifer is the Christian's evil god.
There are also some lost scrolls and gospels that state Jesus felt that the old testament God, was the usurper of the true high god, therefore evil. ApparenltlyJehova was simply the God of Isreal with female consort who served the true High God and the jewish people sort of did a reorginzation thing. Jesus protested this, hence being a heretic.
But you get mixed research on t his so who knows.

In the Bible at Luke 4:3-13, a conversation is recorded between Jesus and Satan. Obviously, Jesus could not have been himself and Satan too.

I asked this, and what Ali said above me was essentially the best answer I got, but it comes down to Satan knowing more than us, could easily fool us into believing a false idol. He could disguise himself as an angel coming to Mary, he could probably impregnant Mary with his seed, so really it comes down to when satan tested Jesus. No one else saw this, and if Jesus was indeed a mortal man, why wouldn't Satan just kill Jesus?
Not that I believe in the Bible, but it is a valid question, but I don't think it would be true using solely Bible logic.

I guess when Satan tempts Jesus after He fasts for 40days...
Satan is identified Satan does not disagree with being Identified.
also After Jesus is baptized, God identifies Jesus as His only-begotten.

You asked the same question that the pharisees asked Christ himself. His answer was:
"You say I am the devil, but I cast out Demons in my father's name. I say to you that if I were, I wouldn't be able to do these things. A house divided against itself can not stand."
And yes, I believe in Satan. He's the old wiley serpent, the most subtile of beasts. He is responsible for all of the evil in the world.

What proof have I found that Jesus WASN'T Satan?
Hmmmmm
That would be similar to the proof that Mahatma Ghandi was not Adolph Hitler.

How can a house divided against itself stand?
Christ cannot be satan and vice versa. Why wouldn't I believe in Satan? The Bible is clear on him and his place.

The Bible says that Satan tried to tempt Jesus meaning they are two separate people.

The first answerer doesn't really get it - satan is the father of lies, he managed to destroy the real bible and replace it with his own thousands of years ago.
That's why god of the bible is a murderous torturing worship freak. The real story was nothing like that.
