Satan is not a fallen angel literally walking around trying to trip up Christians. He’s a personification of anyone or anything that is opposed to God. He’s a man in Isaiah 14:12-16. He’s Peter in Matt 16:23. He’s Rome in Rev 2:10. He’s Judaism in 1 Thess 2:16,18. Satan is also sin itself in Luke 10:18 among others.
Contrary to religious tradition, Satan didn’t fall from heaven.
Isaiah 14:12, often used to picture Satan’s rebellion in heaven and subsequent transfer to earth, isn’t about a personal fallen angel at all. It’s about a man.
In Isaiah 14:16, we see that Lucifer (assumed to be a spiritual being) is actually a man who exalted himself among other men.
Isa 14:16 Those who see you will stare at you and ponder over you: ‘Is this the MAN who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms,
We can discover the identity of this man by looking a few verses back.
Isa 14:4 you will take up this taunt against the KING OF BABYLON: “How the oppressor has ceased, the insolent fury ceased!
When Jesus said…
(Luke 10:18) “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven”
….He was not referring to a personal being, some “fallen angel” falling out of heaven and landing on earth.
In both Isaiah 14:12 and Luke 10:18, “falling like lightning” is Hebrew idiom for losing authority. Just as the king of Babylon lost his authority, so sin itself loses its authority when the gospel is preached with power to heal (See also Lamentations 2:1 and Jeremiah 51:53)
The word “Satan” literally means “adversary”, and can be applied to men and organizations who are hostile to God.
For examples, Jesus called Peter “Satan”.
Mat 16:23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
Judaism was Satan:
In 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 Paul describes how Jews were….
(1Th 2:16) hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved; with the result that they always fill up the measure of their sins. But wrath has come upon them to the utmost.….
But Paul goes on to say in verse 18…
(1Th 2:18) For we wanted to come to you-I, Paul, more than once-and yet Satan hindered us.
The idea of Satan being a personal being is simply not in view in these scriptures but is instead, a symbolic representation of opposition to the
gospel by Judaizing impostors who were trying to infiltrate the church. (see 2 Cor. 2:11; Gal. 2:4-6; Jude 4).
Jesus called Jews who opposed Him “vipers”, snakes, which of course pictures Satan as a snake in Genesis 3 and Rev 12:9.
Rome was also Satan (Rev 2:10).
(Rev 2:10) …., the devil is about to cast some of you into prison…..
A personal being called ‘the devil’ was not throwing first century Smyrna Christians into Roman prisons. Rome was. In this context, Rome was ‘the devil’.
Revelation 2:13 is describing “Satan’s throne”, a place where Roman governance was established along with its idolatrous practices.
(Rev 2:13) ‘I know where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is; and you hold fast My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
Rome was clearly an opposer to the Christian faith, having put many Christians in prison and to death for their refusal to capitulate to Roman idolatry. In this context, Satan is Rome.
Satan is sin itself, and is inside those who have not been cleansed of him.
In Genesis 3:1, Satan is commonly understood to have taken the form of a snake. In Genesis 4:7, sin is like an animal, “crouching at the door”. In 1 Peter 5:8, the devil is “like a lion”. In 2 Tim 2:26, sin is a hunter and again in Rev 12:9, a snake. As a personal being, Satan would not be able to be all of these things at once. However, sin takes many forms and rebellion can be expressed in many way. When Paul says…
2Co 11:14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
….he is actually describing deception in those who appear to be workers for Christ but really are not.
2Co 11:13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.
Acts 5:3 provides an example of the connection between the devil being our own sin. Peter says to Ananias: “Why has Satan filled your heart?”
Act 5:3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart….?”
Then in verse 4 Peter says…
“Why have you conceived this thing in your heart?”
Conceiving evil within our heart is the same as Satan filling our heart. Recall that Jesus taught that evil is in our hearts.
(Mar 7:20) And He was saying, “That which proceeds out of the man, that is what defiles the man.
(Mar 7:21) “For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed the evil thoughts, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries,
(Mar 7:22) deeds of coveting and wickedness, as well as deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride and foolishness.
(Mar 7:23) “All these evil things proceed from within and defile the man.”
Our lusts are deceitful (Eph. 4:22) and the word ‘devil’ means ‘false accuser’.
The devil is described in Hebrews 2:14 as being responsible for death. But
according to Romans 6:23 “the wages of sin is death”.
Heb. 2:14 says that through his death Christ destroyed the devil (rendering sin powerless). Heb. 9:26 matches this, in that Christ appeared “to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
These example show that the devil/Satan is not some spiritual boogeyman. He is the personification of sin itself, the supreme work of rebellion against a holy God.
What about Job? Job believed that the attitude of his friends was wrong. They should (as Jesus taught later) be looking into themselves to find the source of sin, rather than fantasizing about the action of some unseen evil being they imagined
“Ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?… know that there is a [personal] judgment”(Job 19:28,29).
Job is not describing a real being. Satan, in Job, is a personification of the struggle between good and evil. Our western, Greek-oriented, logical, hyper-literal interpretive paradigm has been wrong for centuries, and has from Job, created a monster we have believed is Satan.
…Jesus was tempted “by the devil” in Matthew 4:1.
Mat 4:1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
Jesus had no sin in Him, but as a Being with free will, He had the potential to take the kingdoms of the world, depart from dependence on the Father and to be independent the Father’s will, which would be sin and rebellion. He did not give in to that temptation. Note that the scripture say Jesus was “tempted like we are”.
(Heb 4:15) For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
We are tempted in the same way Jesus was tempted, and like Jesus, we have the opportunity to refuse the temptation and be without sin. In this sense, it was the potential for human weakness that was “the devil’.
Interestingly, we see this human weakness being played out in Jews, who are referred to as Satan in other instances. Here, they tempt Jesus in the same way “Satan” does in Matthew 4:1.
The Jewish crowd wanted to make him king (Jn. 6:15) Satan offers him the kingship of the [Jewish?] world
The Jews ask for miraculous bread (Jn. 6:31) Satan invites him to make miraculous bread
The [Jewish] disciples want Jesus to go to Jerusalem to show His power (Jn. 7:3) Satan takes Jesus to Jerusalem and tempts Him to show His power.
This is yet another example of Satan being those (people) who opposed Jesus… not the ‘fallen angel’ caricature that we have all been entertained by and terrified of and believe is ‘out there’ to get us.
People today want Satan to be the stereotypical caricature of a fallen angel with horns. Religious people want Satan as that caricature because in their mind, his existence explains evil in a world God made good. Non-religious people want Satan to be the popular caricature so they can use him to mock the religious. Many want Satan to exist because he provides an excuse for their own sin, the proverbial “the devil made me do it”. Others, like satanists, are simply deluding themselves and worshiping something that only exists in their imaginations….”
Thank you finally someone who gets it. But Satan isn't sin.
How can I get every demonic stronghold out of my life permanently and how can I get the Holy Spirit back into my life and to completely fully sanctify me and close every demonic door in my life so I can just be free and filled with his spirit
As someone speaking from similar experience, I found that taking time out of my day for *DEEP* prayer (at least 2-3 times a day) is key. It sounds simple but trust me, it's extremely powerful and life changing! I currently feel the same way as you, but that's only because I've been lazy and haven't taken the time lately for deep prayer and I've stopped reading my Bible (I hope you will return back to Christ with me today🙏🙏🙏)

People who choose Jesus over Satan
👇🏼
Did you know that when Nebuchadnezzar dreamt about the governments of the world, he dreamt of a statue with 4 components.
Good. Silver. Brass. Iron and clay.
Daniel 2:32-33
The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay.
Now he then saw this.
Daniel 2:34
While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them.
Now these 4 parts of the statues represent four world empires.
It is basically Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome.
Now, in response Nebuchadnezzar built a statue entirely of gold.
Daniel 3:1
King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.
What people do not realise is this. He is telling the whole world that he will rule forever. As such, in his mind, Persia, Greece and Rome will not be able to defeat him.
The statue is just GOLD.
Thus, what did that mean?
It means he will rule forever and forever.
This is what Isaiah meant when he said.
Isaiah 14:13
You said in your heart,
“I will ascend to the heavens;
I will raise my throne
above the stars of God;
I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,
on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon.
Now. He viewed himself as God.
That is why Isaiah called him Lucifer.
Isaiah 14:12
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!
So you see the term Lucifer was used for him. Lucifer is actually Latin for morning star.
Isaiah 14:4
you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon:
How the oppressor has come to an end!
How his fury has ended!
Now.
Did you know that in Revelation Jesus was also called the morning star?
Revelation 22:16
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”
That is Lucifer. Morning Star.
Now why is Jesus referring himself as this?
This is because Jerusalem had become the new Babylon.
Jerusalem thought it would be in its place in the heavens. It’s rulers thought by their prostituting themselves with Rome, they would rule forever.
So Jesus tells them he is the rock that would banish the 4th kingdom.
Daniel 2:44-45
“In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever. This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands -a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces.
This is Jesus. He is the king that will last forever and forever. He is the true morning star.
So you see Satan is not Lucifer.
Jesus is.
He is the true king that lasts forever and ever.
Please learn how to read your Bible.

In the book of Genesis, it was just called a serpent. Not the devil, not Lucifer. Just a serpent.
So is it satan or lucifer
Both being it's different names
@@soniadino3300you're wrong
I've Got Esmerelda, Sarah's Holy Spirit to keep me in check
Satan is a father of deceit and falsehood.
Is Satan the same person every-time he turns up?
For example:
Here.
1 Chronicles 21:1
Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel.
If so why did David obeyed Satan?
Job 1:6
One day the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came with them.
Why is Satan in heaven when Jesus saw him cast down like lightning and the book of Revelation says he caused 1/3 of the angels to become demons?
And also Isaiah said he was cast down from heaven just like Ezekiel. Why is that?
Is Satan a figure of speech?
Matthew 12:26-27
If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand? And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
Satan seems to be Beelzebul here but here he seems to be Peter.
Matthew 16:23
Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”
Yet here he seems to be out of Peter but had gone into Judas.
Luke 22:31
“Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat.
John 13:27
As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him.
So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”
In John 8, it seems that he gave birth to the Pharisees and the Pharisees are devils. Little devils that is.
John 8:44
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. 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.
Here he jumps into Ananais
Acts 5:3
Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?
Why then are there so much of inconsistencies?
Or is it an expression Jewish people use which is foreign to our culture?
Why would Paul hand a man to Satan when Jesus saved us from him on the cross?
1 Corinthians 5:5
hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh,, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.
1 Corinthians 7:5
Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
Can a married couple be tempted to lose self-control because of no sex for a time, or the married couple themselves lose self-control. Who is the Satan here?
Does he come to your bedside like a bright cherub to tempt the couple to loose self control?
2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
Or is Paul talking about the hypocrisy of the Pharisees here?
1 Timothy 1:20
Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.
Again you see Paul hands over 2 guys to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme. I thought Satan would teach them to blaspheme!
So what the hell is going on? Is this the same Satan who blaspheme God when seeking after Moses body?
Jude 1:8-10
In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams these ungodly people pollute their own bodies, reject authority and heap abuse on celestial beings. But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” Yet these people slander whatever they do not understand, and the very things they do understand by instinct-as irrational animals do-will destroy them.
Here we see women turning to Satan in the early church just because there was not enough money to go around the church to support them.
1 Timothy 5:15-16
Some have in fact already turned away to follow Satan.
If any woman who is a believer has widows in her care, she should continue to help them and not let the church be burdened with them, so that the church can help those widows who are really in need.
Really are the early Christians so easily swayed?
Here we see a gathering of people who disguised themselves as Jews being called a gathering of Satan.
By the way do you know he lives in Pergamum?
Revelation 2:13
I know where you live-where Satan has his throne. Yet you remain true to my name. You did not renounce your faith in me, not even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness, who was put to death in your city-where Satan lives.
Finally.
Why would God free Satan after capturing him for a 1000 years?
Would you?
Now after all these things I have told you about Satan (after going through the whole array of verses), let me ask you this simple question.
Is he a figure of speech or is he really the same person who people claim is the current god of this earth we are living in?
Do you know John 10:10 is actually not about the devil?
Look at the verses preceding John 10:10.
John 10:7-10
Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Now.
Many people read the word “thief” and thinks Jesus is referring to Satan.
It isn’t.
Notice how the passage starts.
John 10:7
Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.
Therefore.
As such it’s a continuation from the previous verse.
John 10:6
Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
“The Pharisees.“
Hence, the word “therefore”.
The “thief” there as such was the teaching and the doctrine of the Pharisees. The old covenant.
Also these thieves came before Jesus. This is referring to the Mosaic covenant.
So.
There is no mention of devils or satans there. It’s all bad teaching.
Know that the scriptures are Jewish not Western.
sorry but that first part sounds A LOt like god and or christianity
So Satan is Lucifer right?
Did you know that when Nebuchadnezzar dreamt about the governments of the world, he dreamt of a statue with 4 components.
Good. Silver. Brass. Iron and clay.
Daniel 2:32-33
The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay.

What people do not realise is this. He is telling the whole world that he will rule forever. As such, in his mind, Persia, Greece and Rome will not be able to defeat him.
The statue is just GOLD.
Thus, what did that mean?
It means he will rule forever and forever.
This is what Isaiah meant when he said.
Isaiah 14:13
You said in your heart,
“I will ascend to the heavens;
I will raise my throne
above the stars of God;
I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,
on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon.
Now. He viewed himself as God.
That is why Isaiah called him Lucifer.
Isaiah 14:12
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!
So you see the term Lucifer was used for him. Lucifer is actually Latin for morning star.
Isaiah 14:4
you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon:
How the oppressor has come to an end!
How his fury has ended!
Now.

Revelation 22:16

The term “Son of God” does not mean Jesus is God’s birth child. It is a term used by Augustus to proclaim himself as the divine in his accession after Julius died.
There was a comet which flew passed the Roman sky. Augustus told the people Julius had become God.
His spirit had descended Augustus and now he carries the Spirit of God. Augustus as such is now the Son of the living God.
It is about his office. It’s not about who his father is.
