Hw,
Well we can disagree,however why not take some time and look at what these men have offered to you? it would be better to discuss this and come to truth.
Why do you insist that it is an either or situation,instead of a both and?
The names mean what they do.However there is a fallen angelic being specifically identified by Jesus.....as Satan.
HW.....The FAITH has already been revealed by God...once for all time.That is what we are saying to you. You seem to desire to remain outside of THE FAITH on this issue.
In America you are free to believe what you want .In God's kingdom we are to be bound by the word of God written.Half truth and half poison turns to poison. Take time to re-examine the verses which are crystal clear.:wavey:
There is much we disagree about here on BB......Satan is not one of those topics
i know fully well what has been offered friend--i use to hold those beliefs before for years and years :) but when God shines light on a subject,,the person can no longer hold on to that anylonger--now before everyone gangs up on this comment--just because God hasnt showed some people,doesnt mean he has not showed others--we all are ignorant in certain areas and doctrines--may God shine his light upon all of us :)
i have spent 8-10 hours some times 3-4 days in a row each day looking all through the bible and studing the subject--it would do for some of you to take that same advice without being so hard shelled and maybe you will see also :)
well actually not so--Jesus and his disciples were a small group--and even his true disciples had false traditions about how and what The Christ was gonna do :)
Don't make statements you can't back up.
First, those who have left "traditional teachings" we call apostates.
They have left the faith.
They no longer "contend for the faith once delivered to the saints," as Jude says.
If that is what you mean then say so and don't beat around the bush.
If there are others that believe like you do speak forth the truth and say who they are, at least by example. People who believe as you do, name them. Identify those who believe as you do. Identify churches that believe as you do.
Or are you just a troll that has come here to stir up trouble?
so the true disciples were apostates according to your view--they believed the false tradition of Christ setting up his kingdom while he was alive on earth.
But they eventually understood the TRUTH and left that false tradition :)
No it isn't enough said. I asked you some straight forward questions. Do you have the decency as an honest person to answer them. Or are we going to go round and round the merry-go-round for the next five pages like we did the last time before you are able to come up with a coherent answer?
I don't think the point is that Satan is a God. Of course he isn't a god though never the less he is worshiped by his followers and their worship means he is treated like one and thus called a god because of it.

2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath
blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the
glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto
them.
There is only one "true" God.
But go with what the Bible says. Satan is the "god" of this world.
You can't argue with Scripture.
