Hello R/S! Nice to be back!



It's interesting to note the ways that people identify God and Satan. To most, it's quite simply, Satan=Bad, God=Good.

To an extent, this is so. No evil has entered the world by God's hand. It was all spawned by Satan, although it was the choice of mankind to allow him into the world, so we are definitely responsible. However, Satan is the god of the world, and all sin is spawned from him, his angels (or demons) and the fleshly desires of mankind.

But besides all this, people's view of Satan is extremely limited. They seem to believe he is just an evil being who mindlessly attempts to destroy all things, and to make all things bad without a reason.

In fact, this is not so. Humankind is not what Satan wishes to destroy. In fact, he wants world peace. He wants cooperation with nations, and rest among people. He is not opposed to morals, or humanism. Not at all. In fact, he fully supports these things.

Satan does not wish to destroy humankind. He wishes to destroy God. He want's rise above God; to be the ultimate authority and control over man, and over the universe.

Spoiler for Isaiah 14:12-15 (King James Version):


We can observe in the world around us. Yes, it is disgusting and vile, but is that the ultimate aim of the populous? No!

I do not support Barrack Obama. I feel that his methods of balancing and running our country, making peace with enemies are irresponsible at best. However, is his intent malicious? To my knowledge, no. In fact, his intentions are quite honorable. Change! and Peace! Anything wicked, vile, and disgusting about that? Nope. But take notice of his spiritual side. He tried to remove the manger scene from the White House. A tradition, that to my knowledge, has been kept for a very long time. He changed (or tried to change) the saying from Merry Christmas, to Happy Holidays. The church he formerly attended before taking office was...well...you get the point. His actions suggest a weak faith, if any faith at all.

But the WORLD supported him completely. Keep in mind, Satan is the god of the world.

I could go on and on about politics, but to the point, Satan wants morals without God. He would like peace in the world, and would like to make the world a better place. He just wants to leave God out of it.

There is a problem. There simply cannot be peace, without the prince of peace, which is Jesus Christ.

Satan, however, prays on the Christian, because Christians are the people God, Christian's are also his enemy. He attempts make their lives unappealing. To tempt them, and lead them as far astray from the true God as he can. To make his ways seem so much easier then the RIGHT way.

So, is the fall of Satan unreasonable? Was it wrong to cast Satan from heaven? Afterall, by now, you may be thinking, he doesn't seem so bad. But you would be gravely mistaken.

Spoiler for Ezekiel 28:13-15 (King James Version):


Satan was HIGHLY favored in Heaven. Perfect in all ways, apparently. It is reasonable to assume he also had high status, and possibly power over all the other angels.

But that wasn't enough for Satan. After being set so high, being given so much, and being made so well, it was not enough for him. Satan wanted to BE God, and plotted thusly. Against the very one who had so generously made him who he was. And so, he was thrown from Heaven, where he tried to take man from God.

Satan is just as evil and disgusting as he ever was. His methods are wrong, and nothing can be right without the perfect ways of God.
