Know thy Enemy. All info. on Satan in one thread.

[BeyondET]

1 John 3:8 - He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

And every man has sinned. Meaning we was of the devil before we were saved. Now we are a new creation in Christ.

The very core of our souls were twisted in the garden of Eden. The scientists say we only use 3% of our DNA. They call the rest 97 junkdna. Like a desert of unused "opportunities".
They dearly want to lock up this pandoras box at the backdoor so to speak.
Jesus is the only allowed door in. He is called Life. He is likened with a tree (the Branch). A tree of life.

The other tree. The tree of good and evil. Is it still here among us.

The tree of life is guarded by two Cherubs.
Satan was a cherub.

The Covering Cherub.

Our iphones are truly a fruit of this tree. And we still can hardly handle it.

Baal is called the rider of the clouds in Ugaritic litterature. The Canaanites were deep into satanism it seems. As Jezebel..the Phoenixian/Canaanite Queen. Its all history repeating. The world is worshipping all the baalim and satan each and every second.

Yes! Be Vigilant in Jesus.

Yea these medical scientists are trying to open up Pandora's box for sure must be of evil right??

The enemy only has as much authority over us as we give him. If we give him no authority or recognition, he has no authority or power in us. It's a matter of what we spend our time focusing on. If we're focused on our Savior and His Kingdom, there is no time or use looking at the enemy. Too many times I've seen that the people who are under attack from the enemy are the same ones that spend time acknowledging him and his tactics.

Thats very true.
Jesus exposed the devil and his tactics and was killed.

 

[Preacha24-7]

Satan is the temporary ruler of this world, but don't get it twisted God is still on the throne. The devil has power, but he can't compete with the King of Kings. Jesus whopped Satan's butt at Calvary. He conquered death, hell, and the grave.Jesus died for us. So we no longer have to fear death. A lot of Christians are scared of the devil, because they don't know the power and authority they have in the name of Jesus. How do we defeat the Devil? It's very simple.This is how we defeat the devil. The name of Jesus, Power of the Holy Ghost, and the Word of God. James4:7 Therefore submit to God, Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Satan's job is to destroy you. He hates God, and he hates Christians. God wants to bless you. John 10:10 The thief cometh not , but to kill, steal, and destroy. But I have come that you may have life and life more abundantly. Satan was a Cherub so he was not a regular angel. God put him in charge of the worship music in heaven. Read Isaiah 14:12-14 it talks about how Satan got kicked out of heaven. Just remember that God will protect you as long as you're doing the best you can to follow God's commandments. Also read Revelations 12:11 it talks about how Christians can have victory over Satan. Preacha24-7

It is also good to understand what satan is not. He is not omnipresent. He can only be in one place at a time. He is not omniscient. He does not know our thoughts. He is not omnipotent. He does not control anything. God only allows him to do what is in Gods will. Notice in Job how God would only allow him to do certain things. Satan would like to think he has power but the only power he has was given him by God. Be very careful not to give him more credit than he deserves. Yes we need to be on guard but he is not as powerful as some make him out to be.
