But satan is the master deceiver, and he hates the Word of God. Although Satan is NOT omnipotent (all powerful), omnipresent (everywhere at once), or omniscient (knowing everything), he tries to get us to doubt the Word of God and test God's promises. He will urge us to think that God cannot quite be trusted, or that what He has said is not the whole truth (Matthew 4:3). If you breathe a lie into the air or let loose a slanderous tongue, and the words are carried as by magic to the farthest corners. But speak a truth, or perform an honest act, and unseen powers will be at work to try and hide this tiny ray of light and hope. Satan will do everything he can to lead you astray.

He is not all powerful. He poses a very handsome spirit with no body of flesh and bone. Dragon appearance is just a symbol of evil. Known also father of all lies.

Satan is just a figure like God. And I don't mean any disrespect, but I'm an atheist, and therefor don't believe in God, or in Satan. I believe everything that happens here in this world is an result of ones actions, and not of God.

You discussion is oh so true. Satan is here to deceive all he can and to try all he can to prevent any good from happening. He is very real and is very scared of the blood of Jesus and the Word of God. He does try to get us to doubt the Word of God then he can cause confusion in our hearts and minds and God is NOT the author of confusion but we know satan is. Great discussion. God bless you!

I believed that the deceiver Satan really exist because he is the instrument of GOD to test how pure is our heart in believing him as the creator of all things in this world that everything in him are possible. Thru the intervention of satan GOD will know our purity.

I have to say that I beg to differ with you a little bit about him not being able to be every where at the same time. Why else is the world like it is? anyways, I believe that satan exists. Satan was an angel before he decided that he wanted to disobey the power of God. When he disobeyed the power of God, God put him out of the heavens. He decided that he would not want to be human with the power that the angel had to begin with so he put the angel and created and a place called hell for anyone who chose to follow him. His followers or bad evil spirits are what reak havack on the world today. They do it through interaction of brain and mind and soul. Even though Christ is there and knows and is all powerful in my eyes, Satan is just as knowing and understanding of the magnificant powers that god holds along with christ. Satan has to ask God if he can punish someone or have god take there hand of protection of them. It's like a drama for god and satan because god tries to prove to satan for every person that accepts christ and follows christ that they would never go over to satans side and that is why satan goes about the earth looking for whom he maysoever devour. satan knows the bible verse by verse and knows the actions that god would take. That's why it's easy for him to manipulate us. We have to be strong in our faith in God and talk with God and understand what God wants for us. Even though we may not know see the big picture. Each battle is a battle regardless of how big the battle is or how small the battle is.

Some of us don't believe in Satan because there's no way to tell if he is real or not just like god. Nobody knows. Everybody has their set of beliefs and mine are different from the rest. but I RESPECT other people's beliefs.

i absolutely believe in Satan and his disciples.i am meeting them everyday and everywhere. it's good that i was able to resist some of their charms.there are instances that i can't get rid of them like telling lies. Satan also use living pseudo just to add up one's sins.

I can't say i believe in Satan, the powerful monster that rules hell, but rather something which can stop us from doing bad. I believe in the word itself but not the actual thing people expect it to be.. if that makes any sense. I guess i'm saying that the word Satan to me, means EVIL, BAD etc.
