Can Satan die?

Question

I am actually having a really tough time picking and answer so far. ebedeliyah's link to Dankenbrig's article is interesting and I have read it but have not had time to really study the question. I came in knowing that yes, Satan can die but God would not kill him because God already gave him the gift of eternal life. Now, I need to study it a bit more, but I am not yet convinced that Dankenbring's premise is correct.

Answer 1

Only God can destroy Satan

Answer 2

NO SATAN AFTER THE 1000 YEAR REIGN OF CHRIST

Rev.20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Angels do not die Luke 20:34-36; Eze 28:13-15; The cherub angel anointed
over Eden, turned rebel and resist God, he has his time limit and the world will end. Job 38:4-7,30-32; Angels inhabited heaven long before man on earth.

Eph.2:7; 3:21; The world with Jesus is without end. John 3:16; 17:3,17; 2Pet.3:13; Rev.20:1-6,12,13; 1Cor.15: 22-28,51-53; Rev.21:1-5; All is made
as new as before Eden.

Answer 4

No.Satan is immortal, a seen here:

Revelation 20:7-10 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society



Satan's Doom
7When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. 9They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Answer 5

Yes he can and will die.

True that as a "spirit being" he cannot die. However why does he have remain "spirit" forever. I believe the scripture supports that "the Father" is all-powerful. He can turn him back to flesh. The Son became flesh and he was a spirit being prior to his incarnation.

Ezekiel 28:18-19
"You defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your trading; therefore I brought fire from your midst; it devoured you, and I turned you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all who saw you. All who knew you among the peoples are astonished at you; you have become a horror, and shall be no more forever."' "

I used to believe Revelation 20:10 meant the devil will suffer forever. Further study shows he is thrown toward the lake of fire where he suffers day and night throughout "that age", until his time comes and he is consumed by the fire.

Answer 6

Your question is irrelevent to answer it's a waste of words and it teaches nothing, it gives a place of importance to a being that is not worth teaching about in lite of the context of your questioning, it's always an intrigue of mine why do christians have a fascination with the advisery, I wonder.

But then again these are exactly the kind of teachings false teachers bring up, just because they do not have any other more important topic to conjuer up, there are more productive, beneficial and highly enlightening teachings within the torah that even non-jews can extrapulate, but then again it seems this question is only a demonstration of someone or something trying to distract people away from the light of the torah to bring them into the ocultism and satanism which is only good to arouse curiosity and by this curiosity one is led away unsuspectently from a more brilliant light which issues from the father of lights.

Eventhough your question is to get answers from biblical point of views there are questions that are not supposed to be asked in a certain way such as yours, but like you have an itching ear to a lie you will only hear them, what I have posted is biblical from the stand point of an aposer to a lie.

EDIT:----- you people who gave me thumbs down wouldn't know the truth if it hit you with a 2 x 4.

Answer 7

NO Satan never dies. He is eternally going to the place God has prepared for him & his angels.

Only Satan wants all who he can get to go with him. He'll do anything to keep away from God. Hide the truth , put off accepting Jesus as their Lord & Saviour, He lies & is the father of lies we are told in the book of John.

Sorry, didnt mean to preach.

Answer 8

Rev 20:10 It appears to say in this verse that the devil/satan
will be tormented day & night forever & ever. This death is a
seperation from YHWH God for ever. So perhaps the 2nd
death is a second seperation.Isa 66:24 Seems to imply that
their souls will not die & their fire shall not be quenched, that
is people who have gone to hell/hades? Luke9:44,46,48 all
say much the same. Death that we think of in the western
world does not seem to be the death the Scripture talk about.

Answer 9

Revelation 20: 10 Devil hurled into the lake of fire ,tormented forever & ever.
Revelation 20:14 explains the lake of fire being the second death.(Death & hades thrown into the lake of fire)
A contridiction ?
To go deeply into an explanation would take a lot of time.
Revelation can be hard to understand as it is a dream (a Revelation).
Concider Revelation 21:8 Would Satan not fit into that decription ? So yer i believe Satan will die , the second death ,which is death without hope of resarrection.

Answer 10

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.

The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.

Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.

Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.

Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

Answer 11

Yes demons can die. In the bible when they were being cast out a man they asked God if they could go into the swine and they drowned with the pigs when they ran into the river .
