The fact is it's not about your opinion but what the scriptures tell us.
Scripture does not say any of that.
In Isaiah, God sings a dirge to the King of Babylon, I believe, and in Ezekiel, the dirge was to the King of Tyre, I think, no Satan mentioned. undecided

Interesting claim! Do you have any scripture references for this ? undecided
If Satan is still falling down a "bottomless" pit, how and when did he "escoop" said pit only to take on the role of tempter of man? undecided

You're right because Satan, while in heaven was jealous of man. Lmao grin you just brought up another point that I have always questioned. If the pit is bottomless when will Satan ever reach it? grin

Isaiah was speaking about a king whom he called Lucifer. Lucifer means light, it is a good name.

Revelation says there was war in heaven between Michael and the Dragon. How Christians deduced that this war occurred in the past before the creation of earth baffles me till this day. Revelation was written as an action movie and not everything there is to be taken literally. There you have beasts, dragons, and several kinds of creatures.

May I suggest you try to read as much of the Book of Enoch as you can -possibly stomach, then come back and read again on Satan in the Bible. You will likely change your mind about Satan and all the many doctrines and traditions formulated against the character, stories on which your churches today are built on but with little or no real connection to scripture. undecided

Take a look at the passage below at the way Jesus Christ spoke of Satan to Peter, when informing him, Peter, that Satan had requested to have him, Peter, tested.

Luke 22 vs 31-34 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31. “Satan has asked to test you men like a farmer tests his wheat. O Simon, Simon,[c]
32. I have prayed that you will not lose your faith! Help your brothers be stronger when you come back to me.”
33. But Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, I am ready to go to jail with you. I will even die with you!”
34. But Jesus said, “Peter, before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will say you don’t know me. You will say this three times.”
Notice that nowhere in there is Jesus Christ rebuking or casting fire at Satan for making such a request. It sounded more like He, Jesus Christ, was announcing a routine check-up there to Peter, does it not? undecided

If we call you guys fanatics now it will be as if somebody is not good.
please can you tell me how ajegunle or going back to dirt is related to the sacrifice of jesus now

cheesy That is what it means to according to you "just live life the way you want"!

Meaning not in accordance to the commandments of God but according to your own way and pleasure, further meaning the Way of God does not please you, thus you must return and you return to whence you came from!

Which is dirt/death!

Thus my answer!

grin An Opinion is a person's take on an issue!

And if an Opinion is Untruthful, it Must and Will be Countered but because you are Unable to Counter, you run to hide in the house of Opinion, which Does Not Hide You But Exposes That You Cannot Counter My Statement (but eh! let me find something that sounds intelligent, ehen let me say "Hope you know all these are just your opinion and doesn’t necessarily mean they are universal truth" grin), thus it Stands as Truth until validly countered which you have not done!

grin While Universal Truth simply means Truth that is Truth here, is Truth in Antarctica, and is still Truth in India, meaning Truth which is Truth Everywhere!

So is it not Truth Everywhere that a person who has been cleaned up and taken from dirt but returns to his dirt is clearly saying he loves his dirt?

This is Truth Everywhere so I have given my Opinion and the Universal Truth of the issue which you have not validly countered! grin grin

Meanwhile you got the definition of universal truth wrong.

Universal truth means that it’s true here, also true in mars, in Alpha Centauri, also true in andromeda and other galaxies.

You see why you can’t reason beyond your myopia?

Your opinions are only true in your church, outside of your church it holds no water.

I’m sure some people in your church even have different opinions.
