Monsignor Pope Ping!
Satan is a fallen angel, a created being....by God...
There is no comparsion...
The picture caught my eye this morning. What/where is that statue?
Good article. Thanks for posting :)
Angels are more powerful than Satan.
Stop telling God how big your storm is and start telling your storm how big your God is.
The above is a common saying. Sounds good to our ears. Read it slowly and let your lips move. Is it Biblical? Is it what we are taught in the Bible?
I do believe there is a chapter in Isaiah about the origin of the fall of the enemy.
Isaiah 14:3 -23.
AMEN !
Thank-you and God Bless.
Bkmk
Great post!!
The astute reader of His temptation by Satan will note Jesus replied to Satan's misuse of Scripture with the correct use of Scripture....hence one of the reasons context is your friend in understanding the Scriptures.
Jesus appealed to Scripture for His rebuttals against Satan.
That illustrates the supremacy of Scripture over all else.
Quote(Most Catholic scholars and the Fathers of the Church interpret the thousand years in the passage above as a figurative long period of time rather than specifically 1000 years. They hold that this thousand years has already begun and is the time in which we now live, the current Church age.)
Some scholars and Fathers of the church may want to rethink that interpretation.
We are about 2,000 years from the Resurrection.
The people alive today can read in the bibe about Israel being kept ‘about 2,000’ cubits from the ark of the Covenant.
We have a New Testament reference to ‘about 2,000’ too. About about 2,000 demons entered unclean beasts, called swine,and they drowned.
We aren’t in the 1,000 period described in Revelation yet. That is the next period.
The Sabbath day that is comming.
After 6 days(6000) (4,000 plus 2,000), Satan is removed for a 1,000 years.
A day is as a 1,000 years.
He tells time in thousands sometimes..
So, today isn’t the time of Satan being locked up.
This is a time of demon possessed swine.
This is a time of Israel being kept from the ark of the covenant.
This is a wilderness period.This is a breach period,between the two ‘Light’ periods.
For the last 2,000 years.
If we accept the last about 2,000 years is the church age,maybe the church not knowing what day or time it is, according to the Father and His plan, is very prophetic.
