I’m not sure I believe that satan is no longer running the show here on earth. I know Christ is our redeemer but am not convinced that he took it back. Too much evil in the world for that. but I do believe he is returning to take possession. Maranatha!
Depends on what one means by that, imho.
Satan has a long rope currently.
But he is still encapsulated, contained in some boundaries, as it were; as it is.
He no longer has anything close to carte blanche . . . if he ever really did.
His legal authority has been taken away at the Cross.
He’s a brazen usurper for sure, now. And, he knows his days are numbered and short.
As Scripture says, he’s out to make the most [mayhem] that he can in the time remaining.
