What Does the Devil Look Like?

The Devil is an invisible spirit person, which means that he does not have a physical appearance.—Ephesians 6:11, 12.

How does the Bible describe the Devil?

The Bible uses a number of analogies regarding the Devil. These help us to understand, not his appearance, but his personality. Some of these analogies include:

An angel of light. He pretends to offer something good to try to get people to follow his teachings rather than those of God.—2 Corinthians 11:14.

A roaring lion. He fiercely attacks God’s worshippers.—1 Peter 5:8.

A great dragon. He is frightful, powerful, and destructive.—Revelation 12:9.

Bible verses about the Devil
2 Corinthians 11:14: “Satan himself keeps disguising himself as an angel of light.”

Meaning: Satan pretends to be good in order to fool people into following his teachings rather than those of God.

Ephesians 6:11: “Put on the complete suit of armor from God so that you may be able to stand firm against the crafty acts of the Devil.”

Meaning: The Devil schemes to get people to disobey God.

James 4:7: “Subject yourselves to God; but oppose the Devil, and he will flee from you.”

Meaning: A person can defeat Satan by obeying God rather than the Devil.

1 Peter 5:8: “Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone.”

Meaning: The Devil hates those who obey God and wants to destroy their friendship with Him.
He looks like peter Obi and obidients,that goes about cursing the sick and the old

Foolish misinformed Churchgoer!

Even Jesus Christ as human in the flesh couldn't see Satan he can only sense Satan's presence through words, thoughts and actions of people around him. Matthew 16:21-23; John 8:44

So who brainwashed you into thinking you can see what Jesus can't see in your sinful flesh? cheesy
I know u just wanted to type that is why u typed this rubbish..now u have typed, u can now rest so that u can have strength to type another rubbish tomorrow grin grin

Always try to understand the etymology of a word before you use them.

the word Satan is an arabic word, 'shaitan' meaning the, one who decieves.

the words, evil, devil, satan are coinations by those who copied and translated the bible.

yes, there are roaming spirits being with ulterior intentions but you are deluded if you belief they have a grand chief called, satan.
You're wrong. The word ' Satan ' is an Hebrew word and not Arabic as you wrongly claim. It passed from Hebrew through Latin to other languages using it.Besides , the Jewish religion had been in existence for more than 2622 years before Muhammad, the prophet of Islam was born. Consder its etymology below :
Satan
Etymology ▲ hide
From Middle English Sathan, Satan, from Old English Satan, from Latin Satān, from Old Greek Σατάν, from Hebrew שָׂטָן.

the devil is a scapegoat used by religion to explain why their god is not perfect.

If your own god version is perfect, believers would quickly start asking questions that why does imperfection exist in his creation.

The quick response is to pass the blame to another being. It maintains the concept of a perfect god while allowing for imperfections to exist.

What most believers fail to grasp is that if their god was so perfect, why can't he just wipe off the devil and all its imperfections and allow a virus-free creation?

They quickly posit with many nonsense about volition and a chance to do good or evil. It is like Microsoft claiming to have a perfect software but knowingly allowing trojans to exist without cleaning them off and tasking the end user to use their volition to know what is good or bad.

The term, believer' is actually an insult. It describes a person who can accept statements to be true without subjecting them to basic human logic tests. If I tell you that the sun is a tree and you accept, then you are a believer.


Edit:
Check on the old people you left in the villages. They are not witches. You were made to believe they were. It pains my heart coming to Nigeria and visiting villages for functions to see these old women left to rot by their kids and grandkids.

If you are having issues at work, maybe you should improve your productivity instead of blaming village people.

This explanation falls flat to the word of God. You are so fortunate to be created and yet you are questioning your creator. God is the creator of all things and he decides on how to run what He created just the way you can buy iphone and decide to give it to your babe instead of your wife.

He is the potter you obviously as a clay can't tell Him what to do. He can kill He can make alive He is faultless you can't challenge His ways. He made all things by Himself and He is the master planner of all things.

Ken4Christ:
Isaiah 14:12-17.
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 High.

15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

16 THEY THAT SEE THEE shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;

17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?

Verse 17 affirms the devil formerly called Lucifer can be seen.
Brother, the scripture you quoted is in error.

"Lucifer" that was referred to here was Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, not Satan, the devil.

You are a believer.

Thanks for sharing your opinions.

However, let me be quick to point some facts to you.

Over 117 billion humans have lived on earth. 117 billion.

There are currently around 4,000 religions.

Many of these humans had a religion.

All these humans who had a religion believed their god was the right one.

By all accounts, if the world were to end today, there would be 117 billion heavenly court judgements.

If each judgement took just one second, it would take your god 3,710 years to finish the judgements. This means you could possibly die 50 times whilst waiting on the judgement line after living another extra 50 lifetimes. Now which of the 50 lifetimes would be judged?

Religion is a mental shackle my brother.

Wake up

The "devil" the mother of witchcraft is the most beautiful creature in heaven and earth.

The devil is genderless. He is a beautiful woman with the body physique of a male gladiator. His body glows beautifully like red hot burning coal.

His real name is Urogi.
