No offense intended. I was just reminded of that remark when I read Joe Sixpack's comment. As for Satan, his power is woefully underestimated. I was discussing that subject with my Grandfather who made a point I never thought about. That when Jesus was tempted by Satan to be made ruler of the kingdoms, Satan must have been able to carry out his offer. Otherwise, it would not really have been a temptation. As Paul warned he is the god of this earth.
Good points.
However, Christ won earth back at The Cross. Ratified it with His Resurrection and will conclude the taking possession aspect on His evidently soon return.
And, Jesus evidently gave lots of authority to The Church operating in His Blood, Spirit, humility, unity and Love.
Of course, The Church seems to rarely operate in one of those, much less all of them.
