Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 10:17am On Oct 25, 2012 |
Does Satan work for God? Check the passages below and give your opinion backing them with other Biblical passages. Thanks Job 2:3 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause. 2Kings 19:35 And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they [were] all dead corpses. Exodus 12:23: For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORDD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite [you]. 1Chronicles 21:15-16 And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite. And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders [of Israel, who were] clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces. |

CrazyMan: God was planing to test Job, and he knew that satan was the right man for the work, hence his boasting. |
Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 12:30pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
[quote author=CrazyMan][/quote] TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. |
Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 12:38pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
^^^^ Well, I agree with Crazyman too in the case of temptation. I think that was why Jesus said when we pray we should always ask God 'not to lead us into temptation but deliver us from evil (Matthew 6:13). I think that prayer alone nullifies any temptation that God would want to bring to us through Satan or any accussation Satan would want to bring before God to allow him test us. So, to say Satan works for God in a direct sense would mean that he (Satan) is doing the will of God to please Him (God) & not for the sake of accussing believers to justify his rebellion against God before he was kicked out of Heaven. Peace |

CrazyMan, what a load of tosh! God has absolutely no control over satan. None, Nada! Satan does as he pleases. Satan freed himself from the yoke of god and became free. He knew the nature of god and was just having fun with him form time to time. Satan is wiser than god: Satan would never allow god to punish his followers whereas god, to satisfy his sadism, would allow satan to run amock amogst the godly. eg. Job. Satan must have been laughing his azs off when he told Mr Jizz-Us to jump down from the mountain top. I guess the son of the father didn't have that much confidence in his heavenly dad and his angels. |

seriallink: ^^^^NOT SURE GOD IS THE ONE WHO TEMPTS US. JAMES 1 VS 13 [b] When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; SATAN WAS NOT KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN AND NEITHER DID HE HAVE A REBELLION AGAINST GOD. THIS IS ROMAN CATHOLIC NONSENSE LOL |
Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 1:03pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
obadiah777: NOT SURE GOD IS THE ONE WHO TEMPTS US. JAMES 1 VS 13 When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; About temptation I agree that God can allow Satan to prove his point which was why Jesus said when we pray, we should ask God not to lead us into temptation ( That's by allowing Satan to tempt us) but deliver us from evil (Matthew 6:13 - The Lord's Prayer). Satan, wasn't kicked out of Heaven? Do you mean he still lives in Heaven Care to elucidate more? |

Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 1:45pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
seriallink:LET ME EXPLAIN IT LIKE THIS. SATAN IS A SPIRIT CREATED BY GOD JUST LIKE ANY OTHER HUMAN SPIRIT. THE SATANIC SPIRIT IS SUBJECT TO GODS AUTHORITY. THE SPIRIT HAS NEVER FOUGHT WITH OR REBELLED WITH GOD NEITHER WAS HE KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN. WHEREVER YOU READ THAT IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION WAS TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE. THE SATAN IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION CHAPTER 12 WAS TALKING ABOUT THE ROMAN EMPIRE. YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT SATAN MEANS. SATAN SIMPLY MEANS 'ADVERSARY' OF GOD. ANYONE WHO IS AGAINST GOD IS SATAN. THE SPIRIT IN THOSE PEOPLE IS SATANIC SPIRIT. THATS ALL SATAN MEANS. 'ADVERSARY'. WHEN PETER WAS TRYING TO OPPOSE CHRIST, WHAT DID CHRIST SAY ? 'GET BEHIND ME SATAN'. THE POINT HERE IS YOU NEED TO DETACH FROM THIS MYTHICAL FIGURE YOU THINK SATAN IS. ANYONE CAN BE SATAN. THE BOOK OF REVELATION CHAPTER 12 IS TALKING ABOUT THE ROMAN EMPIRE WHICH IS ANTI-GOD AND WAS IN HEAVEN ( RULERSHIP ). THEY GOT KICKED OUT OF RULERSHIP IN 193 AD. THATS WHEN IT SAYS, SATAN GOT KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN. THE BIBLE IS CODED. YOU NEED TO GET A DICTIONARY OF BIBLE WORDS. THEN EVERYTHING WILL ALL MAKE SENSE |

^^^So, what do we call the fallen angel who led a rebellion against God before the creation of the human race? |

Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 2:03pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
obadiah777: QUOTE THAT VERSE IN THE BIBLE MY CHIEF LETS SEE THE CONTEXT Isaiah 14:12-14 (KJV) 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most John 8:44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. |

seriallink:LUCIFER IN THAT ISAIAH VERSE IS REFERING TO BABYLON. IT IS AND WAS AN EMPIRE ON EARTH. ANCIENT BABYLON WAS LED BY NIMROD AND MODERN DAY BABYLON IS LED BY OBAMA. THEY ARE REINCARNATES OF EACH OTHER. ONE OF THEM IS FULFILLED PROPHESY ( THE TAKING DOWN OF NIMROD ) AND THE OTHER IS UNFULFILLED PROPHESY ( FUTURE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA ) JOHN 8 VS 44- IS REFERING TO CAIN, THE DEVIL. DEVIL MEANS DECIEVER. CAIN SLEW HIS BROTHER ABEL AND LIED TO GOD. JUST GOOGLED TO FIND ARTICLES TO BUTTRESS MY POINT. HAVENT READ THIS YET BUT IT SEEMS TO CONFIRM http://brotheryochanan.hubpages.com/hub/john-844-no-satan-here ANOTHER SITE http://admin.joegriffin.org/Visuals/CainsMurderofAbel.pdf FOUND TONNES OF WEBSITE CONFIRMING IT BUT LET ME NOT INUNDATE THE POST WITH WEBSITES. SO MY POINT HERE IS BEHIND EVERY THING YOU SEE IN THE BIBLE ? THERE IS A DOUBLE MEANING TO IT. SCRIPTURE SAYS I WILL UTTER HIDDEN WORDS. SATAN AND DEVIL SOUND LIKE DIABOLICAL WORDS BUT THEY JUST MEAN ADVERSARY AND DECIEVER |

There ain't no difference in referring to him as Satan. As far as I can tell Devil = Satan = Lucifer (The fallen angel) Anyway, thanks for the clarifications. Peace |
Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 2:30pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
seriallink:LUCIFER IS NOT SATAN. LUCIFER MEANS LIGHT BEARER. REV 22 VS 16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. ISAIAH 14 VS 12 How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! HEAVEN MEANS RULERSHIP AND RULERSHIP MEANS LUCIFER AND LUCIFER IS MORNING STAR.. THE LUCIFER OF THAT ERA WAS ANCIENT BABYLON. THE LUCIFER OF TODAY IS AMERICA. I KNOW ITS ALL SO CONFUSING BUT IF YOU HAVE TIME ONE DAY AND IF YOU ARE INTERESTED I CAN BREAK IT ALL DOWN FOR YOU FROM BEGINNING TO END. HOWEVER YOU MAY HAVE TO LET GO OF SO MANY PRE-CONCIEVED NOTIONS. IF YOU ARE OPEN FOR IT, I AM GAME. |
Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 2:46pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
^^^^ Slow down buzugee, I thought I already explained the lucifer I was referring to with scripture? Why are you bringing up another meaning of Lucifer that is different from the one I was referring to? Again the Luficer I referred to was the fallen angel who led a rebellion against God, or is there no such Luficer or Satan as some Christians may choose to call him? If I say Satan or devil, every Christian would know I'm referring to Luficer - the fallen angel or am I wrong? |
Re: Does Satan Work For God? by Nobody: 2:53pm On Oct 25, 2012 |
