I can become so completely frustrated and totally heartbroken reading these posts. You're ALL ripe for the picking. Your false doctrine runs so deep...you have no idea!! Your being programmed and driven like cattle.
The devil believes in God!
The devil believes in Jesus!
The devil believes in the Holy Spirit!
Is the Devil saved?
Alas....God said He would send a strong delusion on the earth.....HE WOULD SEND IT,not the devil...because the heart of mankind is wicked and they want the delusion, they love it, they revel in it. They hate the meat that God has tried to feed them and cry like babies for their milk bottles, becoming soft, plump, fat and ripe for slaughter.
I understand you to be paraphrasing what John stated (faith without works is dead), but I am unclear about your broad statement.
I acknowledge the God of Abraham is the only God.
Jesus is God's only begotten son, both man and God.
They are one with the Holy Spirit.
I know fall short and sin.
I know Jesus to have been sinless, and yet willingly paid the penalty for sin on the cross.
I have repented (and do so repeatedly, alas) ask, and have asked, Christ to forgive me, to come into my life, and be my master.
I have faith that He has done so, and his sacrifice will save me from my sins, not because I did anything, but because he loves me.
I am sorry, but your brush is awfully broad.
The devil doesn't "trust" in Jesus for salvation. So the Devil is not saved. Belief meaning "mere mental accent that Jesus is the Son of God" does not result in salvation. One must believe meaning "accept the substitute sacrifice and place their trust in Jesus". The person who does that is saved and neither life nor death can separate them from the love of God. They have been "perfected forever".
