Believers: Does Satan know our future?

Question

Does he?
I was always told by someone that God knows our future, but Satan does, too.

Then a couple of days ago I was reading about the same topic on this Christian website and it says that Satan does not know our future.

Where in the Bible does it say he doesn't?

Thanks.

Answer 1

No, satan does not know a persons future.

Remember, if he was able to know the future he would have known his terrible mistake in choosing to defy God.
The above is a paradox, since satan would not have stepped outside of perfect harmony.

Satan continues to curse God, not because of sheer hatred but because his failure cannot be corrected.
Mankind is blessed since our Lord corrected our error in the garden of eden when He was crucified.
All we have to do is believe in the Lord and we stand a very good chance of sharing His kingdom when we pass-on.
An angel or demon does not have the latter blessing.

Answer 2

No, satan does not know the future. Man has free will to choose good or evil. Satan can tempt man, but he does not know in advance if the person will yield to that temptation. He is a horrible adversary though. He's had lots of practice so he has learned what works with people over time.
In the Bible, you can see in the Book of Job that satan does not know the future. Satan thought that if Job lost everything, he would fall. Job lost everything but he remained faithful. Then Satan told God that Job would yield if his health was afflicted. Of course, Job remained faithful.
Also, you can read in the New Testament about Jesus being tempted by satan. If satan knew in advance that Jesus would not yield, he would not have tried to tempt Him.
So, satan does not know the future--except as another person said, his own as it is in the end days.

Answer 3

We're told that God alone can know the future.

Isaiah 46:9-10

9 Remember the former things, those of long ago;
I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like me.

10 I make known the end from the beginning,
from ancient times, what is still to come.
I say: My purpose will stand,
and I will do all that I please.

Deuteronomy 29:29

29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.

Answer 4

He knows he will be destroyed and he knows his time is short. But when you give people free will to do things you have no idea how they are going to choose to live.
So the actual events leading up to the end are still waiting to be determined. Time only goes on way and that is rapidly into the future. We don't know how it will be until we get there.
As far as reading our minds only the almighty God can do that. The angels do not know what you are thinking.
That is our own private place that only we can go there.
But by your actions, the look on your face and your past the demons can guess what your thinking.
They can inject thoughts and words into your mind. Almost like talking to you. So they can give you wrong ideas.
But what you do with those ideas is up to you.
How could you be judged if your actions were predetermined? You would have no control over them.?
So it wouldn't be your fault.

Answer 5

Satan's only power is that he is an Angel. He can tempt you he can put sin in front of you he can hurt you mentally and physically but he is not God. He is not Omnipresent (everywhere at once). He does not know the future. He cannot read your mind either. He can put stuff in your mind but he is not like God.

Answer 6

It is not in there, But the only future Satan know is that He has a short time and that is it.

Answer 7

Yes,Satan know our future because he was once with God.He has almost the same powers as God.That is why this world is getting worst.Look around you.Is good more than bad?Whenever you want to be good something bad happen to make you lose faith,right?As for me,after i confirmed to be a full vegetatian and a buddhist,i cut my finger so bad that it take 1 month to heal.After 5 months i had a heart attack and after 1 month a second one,but all this did not affect my determination and faith.Now i change from bad to good,even my wife and all family members can see themselves.After which they follow my steps and become buddhist.It is true ,i did not need to talk so much and no force talk.So had strong faith and do what the bible said and do not do what the bible forbid.May God Bless you with strong faith and wisdom.Merry Christmas.

Answer 8

Satan was thrown into the lake of fire by Apollyon the Destroyer in the Book of Revelations.

Answer 9

If satan or God knows our futures then nothing we do is by our own choice, its all meant to be that way right?

Answer 10

devil is common with the Bible, yet he does not have faith it. devil can twist the words around, he could make 'ability believers' have faith in something fake. for that reason thinking they are stored yet are no longer. devil is the grasp of deception. If somebody 'thinks' they are stored and that they are following something different than Jesus, then devil has those lost souls innovations-blowing the place he needs them. If somebody thinks they are stored yet they do no longer look to be by means of fact they lack a dating with Jesus Christ, then they does no longer go searching for Salvation, in the event that they 'think of' they have already got it. He does not recognize our destiny, the potential of God is extra useful than something, even the deception devil fools many with.
