Is This The Truth?
#22

maybe if you post here and speak what you think is truth


the real truth shall cover you.


i am only trying to save my muslim brothers from hell.


please read what my book says about the devil and compare him to a terrorist today.


The Bible indicates that pride was the element that led Lucifer to rebel against God


( Isaiah 14:12-14 ; Ezekiel 28:12-19 ).


His pride led him to an act of utter foolishness -- the rejection of God's authority and priority as Creator.


Satan continues his hopeless rebellion today -- hating God and everything that honors Him ( John 8:42-44 ).


Satan is like a terrorist who hates his enemy with such passion,


that he is willing to sacrifice his own life to kill him.


Perhaps the satanic mind has become so warped and twisted that it is no longer capable of objectivity.


The "father of lies" may have become the victim of his own delusions.


Even though the Scriptures tell us little about Satan’s origin,


they tell us that he is a fallen angel of considerable power.


One of the most familiar passages is Ephesians 6:12 :


For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,


against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.


Jesus called Satan the "ruler of this world" ( John 12:31 ),


and Jude tells us that he is so powerful,


that even Michael the archangel lacked the power to rebuke him ( Jude 1:9 ).


Paul called him the "god of this age" in 2 Corinthians 4:4 .


He also portrayed him ( Ephesians 6:12 ) as the head of a great,


highly organized "army" of evil spirit beings.


He is a cunning liar, capable of seducing Adam and Eve,


and disguising himself as an "angel of light" ( 2 Corinthians 11:14 ).


While Satan is portrayed in the Bible as powerful, dangerous, and an adversary to be respected,


he shouldn’t be considered in any way equal to God.


He is a creature, with creaturely limitations.


His power is nothing in comparison with that of the sovereign God.


And according to James 4:7 ,


because of the power God gives to His children,


if we resist the devil he will flee from us.


Although subtle and cunning, the devil is a defeated foe who continues to resist God.


furiously until the time that he will be sealed in hell forever.


Satan seeks to frustrate the will of God in our lives. He tries to keep us from what God wants us to think,


what God wants us to do, and where God wants us to be.


He encourages us to worry. (1 Pet 5:7-8)


Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.


Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil,


as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:


Satan attempts to change your focus from Jesus to yourself, things and people.


One of his biggest campaigns is to defeat us through our emotions.


Emotionalism is one of the greatest distracters for keeping Christians from Bible truth.


Satan wants us to believe our emotions (what we feel)


instead of the Word of God because he knows it makes us ineffective.


In conjunction with our emotions,


another major front of Satan is in the area of negative mental attitudes such as fear,


worry, bitterness, desires for revenge, pride, guilt feelings,


lack of love, failure to forgive, hatred, etc.


These ungodly attitudes cause our thinking to come into error.


Since emotion always follows thinking,


emotional instability will always follow incorrect thinking.


That's why harboring mental strongholds is like a written invitation for Satan to have his way with us.


However, through Christ Jesus, we need not fear these strategies.


(I Jn 4:4) Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them:


because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.


No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper;


and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.


This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.(Isa 54:17)


"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." (1 John 3:8 )


"Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them.


Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea!


for the devil is come down unto you,


having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."


(Revelation 12:7-12
