SATAN

DID GOD CREATE SATAN?

Ezekiel 28:11-17 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyre, and say unto him, Thus says the Lord GOD; You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. You have been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of your timbrels and of your pipes was prepared in you in the day that you were created. You are the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you so: you were upon the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, till iniquity was found in you. By the multitude of your trade they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.

Please read the following verses.

Isaiah 14:12 How are you fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how are you cut down to the ground, who did weaken the nations!

2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

Romans 16:20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

God did not create Satan. God created an angel in perfection, but that angel, who was the chief among all other angels, took pride in himself and became Satan.

When God speaks to a tyrant he will actually be addressing the Satan and Satanic forces behind the tyrant. In the verses cited above God was addressing the King of Tyre, a terror during his regime, just as Adolf Hitler in his time. There were also great tyrants on Old Testament period, like Og, the King Bashaan, Goliath, the Philistine.

Satan came in the form of a serpent to the first woman on this earth, Eve, and spoke words that pleased her and deceived her, who fell to victim to Satan and ate the forbidden fruit and gave it to her husband, Adam also. When God spoke to the serpent in Genesis chapter 3, he was actually addressing the Satan in the serpent. Like wise when Jesus was asking speaking to Peter and saying, "get thee behind me, Satan", he was not telling that to Peter but the Satan in Peter.

The anointed Cherubim was created in perfection, and was most beautiful of all the angelic creation, but he exalted himself with pride to be equal with God and, therefore, God found iniquity in Satan and cast him out of heaven. He was called Lucifer, Isaiah 14:12) son of morning, so beautiful, yet he was cast down because he was trying to equal God. Pride goes before fall. In II Corinthians 11:14 he was called the "angel of light".

The evil powers that exist today in the form of terror, adultery, fornication, pornography, murder, and other sins in the world are the result of satanic influences on human beings. The fight that we need to have is actually be directed to the Satan, more than the individual sins themselves. If we fight against the disease by treating the symptoms at the base level instead of controlling temporarily and superficially the sickness, the disease could be healed fully. Similarly if we depend on God and lead a righteous life, a prayerful life, we will be able to control the sins that emanate from yielding to Satan.

Satan is a hater of innocents, and children. This could be seen how Satan forced Pharaoh to kill children and Herod to kill children. Satan likes blood sacrifice. Therefore, he makes people to kill children through abortion. It is not sin if family planning is done, before the union of chromosomes with ovaries forming an ovum, but after the formation of the ovum, if it is destroyed, it is tantamount to killing the child.

Satan is the prince of this world. All power is given to him, so he was quite right in tempting Jesus Christ by assuring to give all that is in the world, if only Jesus worshipped him. But Jesus quoted scriptures and pointed to Satan, that it is written in scriptures to worship God and God alone. If we depend on Jesus Christ we can be triumphant over Satan and his powers in the light of the scriptures, which say that Satan can not do anything to us, the children of God. Satan is a great deceiver, and a cheat. Never worship Satan and Satanic powers, which only will lead to hell. Satan and his angels and all his followers will be cast in to the lake of fire after the final judgment.

Jesus Christ defeated Satan at the cross of Calvary. We have hope that Lord Jesus Christ will keep us from falling. Apostle Paul writes in Romans 16:20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

Salvation is available freely for all who believe in Jesus Christ, and confess his/her sins to Him, and accept Jesus Christ as his/her personal Savior and also acknowledge Him as his/her Lord.

Dear Friend,

Today is the day of salvation. Please confess your sins to Jesus Christ and be blessed. Receive Salvation and eternal life. Jesus is the Way, the truth, and the life.

Holy Bible says God created man, in his own image and named him as Adam and God settled him in a very comfortable place called 'the garden of Eden' and gave him a wife, whom Adam named as Eve. God gave Adam and Eve all the freedom except for eating the forbidden fruit, which Eve and Adam ate and brought sin into this world. In order to redeem mankind from their sin God sent his one and only son, Jesus Christ, who died for our sake, was buried, rose from the dead and ascended in to heaven. "So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation". Hebrews 9:28 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved". Romans 10:9 "Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God". Romans 3:25
(1) Lord Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, He is the light of the World, and that no one can come to the "Father" except through Him.
(2) Salvation belongs to Lord Jesus Christ, who paid the penalty for our sins on the cross of Calvary. He died, rose from the dead, ascended in to heaven and seated on the right hand of the Majesty.
(3)God exists in "Trinity", the "FATHER", the "SON", and the "HOLY SPIRIT". Lord Jesus Christ is the Son of God and very God Himself.
(4) Salvation is solely by the grace of God,
(5) Salvation is solely through faith alone, and not of works, and it can not be earned through a price,
(6) Salvation is in Lord Jesus Christ alone,
(7) Salvation is based on Scriptures alone,
(8) Salvation once received will never be lost,
(9) All the glory is to God alone.
(10) Secure a place for yourself in Heaven by confessing your sins to Jesus Christ. He will never remember your sins any more however serious they are!

God bless you
