Good day to all. Please can someone shed more light on:

Satan’s power in the heavenly realm / spirit world.
Satan’s power on the earth.
Thank you.

Satan has ALL powers.

advocate666: Satan has ALL powers.

Ok. You make it sound as if God is one step away from him...

Good evening Rodeo,

I am quite curious to know why you are interested in knowing the extent of Satans powers. I am of the opinion that Christians should focus more on God and less on the evil one.

Anyways, it might interest you to know that God bestowed great powers on the Angel of light (now Satan) when God's grace was still with him. He disobeyed God and was banished but God never took away these powers.

So to answer your question, yes Satan has powers but these powers are subject to the divine will of God, as such it is impractical for the devil to exercise these powers without God allowing it.

Thank you!

I'm not that curious but some bible passages do suggest he possesses some powers and even authority over some forces (Death, Pestilences, Misfortune etc), though subject to God's authority. I quite understand that he's the ruler of our world but pls I need more clarification...

Good evening sir,

Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think I mentioned anything about the devil not having free will.

if satan's powers are subject to do the will of God then what happens to the will of satan?

Meaning that what satan does is the will of God.

if i was to express my own view, i will have said that God has higher power than satan.

(I think that satan is a freewill Agent.)

though, "God allowing it" means a different thing though.

Good morning sir,

Well said! I guess I used the wrong word to express my thoughts. Anyways, I meant exactly what you posted. Whatever is done by the devil is "allowed" by God.

Thanks for the correction.

Hahahah.
So funny. So you mean Satan is doing god's will? He is his angel?

advocate666:

Morning Advocate,

Hahaha to you too!

I guess u did not read the post of truthislight on the matter. I agree with his post which makes mine 'obsolete'.

advocate666:

Hahahah.

Guy, not so.

He said he may have used the wrong choice of word to express his thought.

Good he had already done the clarification befor your coming

Ah, I understand you now: your god allows my Satan to have freewill. Eh?

Please let me laugh in Chinese. It's like saying Obasanjo allowed George Bush to attack Iraq. Anything to massage your ego.

What part of Satan being in charge of the world do you people not understand? god has absolutely no power over Satan. Satan does as he please and couldn't care less what your god wants.

Sir if you are not careful one would be tempted to think that you believe the devil exists.

**coming close to your ears in whispers**...you are an Atheist!

Only the mad would believe in the existence of ancient myths. However, to interact with mad people, one has to stoop to their level atimes.

Lol!

I am tempted to agree with you on this sir but don't you think that when a 'sane man' interacts with a 'mad man', then the sanity of the 'sane man' can be called to question?

striktlymi:

Lol!

What a mad man calls into question is irrelevant as the sane man knows that he is sane and is only trying to speak a language that the mentally impaired would understand. Is a doctor sick for trying treat a sick person?

You are very funny sir!

This is hardly a matter between a doc and a sick man sir. Sorry to say but the analogy does not follow cause though every mad man is sick but not every sick man is mad. However it is very contradictory to suggest that a mad man would understand whatever the sane man has to say.


What's the thread about again?

Sorry Rodeo for derailing your thread!

See what's happening here. Lololol.
Guys, carry on, I'm observing.

Well, well, well. It looks like we have a "brave" soldier od Jizz-Us who would not run. A rare phenomenom.
How does Jizz-Us like what you are typing? Guess he is jumping with joy.

My stooping to your level has it's limits. If I start making sense to you, that means I'm doomed.
Hell! How low should I lower my IQ before you start understanding me? Make an effort at intelligence and maybe we will meet at the middle.
