He has declared war against you and me, and he will stop at nothing to destroy us. How can we defeat him? The first step is renewing our mind in the knowledge of God. Step two involves safeguarding our mind against Satan’s attacks. Pong (1971) was a black-and-white game of v-e-r-y slow ping-pong.

Aug 14, 2018 · Complete Defeat. During the battle in the end times, MacArthur writes, Michael will defeat Satan completely, so that no fallen angels will ever re-enter God's presence or accuse faithful people: "All of Satan’s attempts to oppose God throughout history have failed, and he will lose this final angelic battle as well ....

“Satan” is a transliteration of a Hebrew word, which means “adversary,” or “opponent.” The word satanis used multiple times in the Old Testament, often referring to anyone who is blocking or challenging someone else. For example: 1. The angel of the Lord opposes Balaam (Numbers 21:22–32). 2. Two of David’s bloodthirsty warriors, Joab and Abishai, m...
Perhaps the last place you’d look to find information about Satan is in a list of pastoral qualities. And yet, as the apostle Paul lays out the qualities he expects of church leaders, he makes specific mention of the devil. The apostle warns Timothy that any elder “must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same jud...
In the third chapter of Genesis, the serpent persuades Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, expelling them from Eden and sealing their doom. But although Adam and Eve are punished, Satan gets the fiercest curse from the God he rebelled against. The Lord says to him: “Cursed are you above all livestock and all wild animals! You will crawl on you...
The author of 1 John states that “the whole world is under the control of the evil one” (5:19), and other passages of the New Testament specifically point to the devil’s control over the nations of the world. For example, pay attention to Satan’s final offer as he tempts Jesus in the wilderness: Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and...
By the time of Jesus’ ministry, Satan had not only attained power over all the nations of the earth, but he had also amassed a following of demons. The Jews of Jesus’ time believed that Satan was the ruler of the demons. In fact, some even claimed that it was only by Satan’s power that Jesus could cast out demons the way he did. But Jesus says this...
Scripture doesn’t give us a cut-and-dry picture of the divine hierarchy, good or evil. So while we can assume Satan is the most prominent of God’s adversaries, we shouldn’t necessarily assume that all God’s divine opponents are under Satan’s control. Here’s how Heiser puts it: “It is clear that Satan is leader of at least some of the powers of dark...
Making deals with the devil is a common storytelling motif. And although the Bible doesn’t say anything about fiddles made of gold, Scripture does tell us of at least one attempted bargain Satan tried to make. We looked at Satan’s attempts to tempt Jesus earlier in this list. Satan offered all the kingdoms of the world to Jesus. But there was a cat...
From the Garden of Eden until the time of Jesus, Satan continued to accumulate power. Like we saw earlier, he had grown powerful enough to demand that Jesus worship himin exchange for the nations Jesus had come to redeem. But after Jesus resisted his temptations, the game changed. In all three synoptic gospels, Jesus does three things after his tri...
Jesus tells us that lying is second nature to the devil. He doesn’t sugarcoat it, either: “He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44). The apostles tell us that our enemy is a great deceiver, too. When...
The New Testament often refers to God as our Father, and to believers as “children of God.” This is obviously a spiritual statement, not a biological one. We’re part of God’s spiritual family. We live under God’s roof, abide by his rules, and enjoy the benefits of being his. However, God isn’t the only spiritual father the Bible speaks of. Satan ha...

Feb 6, 2023 · During the End Times, there are many plans for Satan. While many individuals are under the false belief that Satan is the cause of the tribulation, he is not. The events of the End Times, including the seal judgment, the bowl judgment, and the trumpet judgment, are the works of God. Each part of eschatology has already been carefully crafted by ...
There is a range of answers to that question. One answer is that Christ is delaying His coming, so to speak, in order to give people an opportunity to repent. The second is that Christ came into the world to overcome sin, to overcome death, and to overcome Satan, but He also came into the world so that sin, death, and Satan would be overcome in ...
