Shocking Unbelief
Charles Baudelaire: The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.
Screen shot
And even those who still believe in the Devil, many think of him not as a person or being but rather as a force or a power.
Allow me to set the record straiught: You have an enemy, and he is an actual being.
He is a person.
He is not your mother in law, how do i know, because he is my mother in law.
Jk.
He goes by many names: He is the Devil, Satan, Bilial, the dragon, the serpant, the prince of this world, the angel of the abyss, a liar, a thief, a murder.
And when you tyrusted in Jesus Christ, you declaired war on him, his followrrs and his kingdom.
Charleds Spurgion quote:
Know thy Enemy
lt me tell you a bit about your enemy.
The way i see him, now that i am a christian is that he is an opposer of all the is good and holy.
Look at His opposition to God’s people.
He opposes Believers
he accusers believers
he slanders belivers
he afflicts belivers
Domnt feel alone: Satan Opposes God as well.
He opposes God’s purposes
he nopposes God’s Word:
He opposes God’s righteousness
He is real, his hatred is real and his threat is real.
But in the Words of Billy Graham: I have read the end of the bible: God wins.
The Blessing in the Devil
No its not what it sounds like, there is no blessing in the devil, Satan is a murder and the father of lies.
What i am referring to is this: The Devils existence makes this crazy world make absolute sense.
And his existence and activity explains away a great deal of what would have other cause cause me perplexity.
Let me tell you 2 ways in which the existence of the Devil blesses me.
1: I know that God is all good and is not the source of evil and misery.
All of the evil, pain, misery and suffering in this world is not at God’s hand.
It is through the destructive work of Satan.
To believe in God, but not the Devil results in Paganistic Yin Yang beliefs.
Yin, Yang Symbol
This belief that there is a little bad in the good and a little good in the bad, and so God is good, but also a little bad - rubbish.
2: The second blessing the Devils existence does it to just in the knowledge that i have an enemy who is actively attacking me.
How is this good?
Well it means that its more than likely that as a christian, any pain, sorrow, persecution, heartache, misery i feel are not the result of my “badness” or “Karma” but the result of my enemy seeking to bring me down.
Karma is a horrible belief that many christian are guilty for believing.
Karma says that doing good, results in you receiving good, and doing bad, results in you receiving bad.
This makes many christians very confused when bad things happen to them.
Why do bad things happen to good people? is a question that has Karma as its worldview: Why shouldn't bad things happen to good people, especially if those good people are christians?
the bad that happens its not cosmic balances being set straight it is the work of the lion and thief.
Satan’s Defeat
Satan is a defeated foe, he is defeated but still temporarily present.
He was defested by the Lord Jesus Christ.
Satan is strong - Jesus is Stronger.
Jesus came to destroy Satan work
And that work continues till this day.
Through the Believers faith in Jesus Christ.
This is not an automic casting down - its a casting down by faith and fortitude.
Active submission to God Word and active resistance to Satans Temptation.
He is activly persuing your soul every day.
Satan has but one desire: You have you.
Will you let him have you?
Death Row Devil
Joyce Myer: When Satan reminds you of your past, you remind him of his future.
Well lets do just that:
