Nick,

I have said that she was deceived by the serpent, and I have shown through scripture how the serpent was symbolic of the carnal mind.

You say that the serpent was just a vessel and is really represented as an evil supernatural entity correct?

Did the serpent have knowledge of good and evil?…and was punished because it sided with an…[Read more]

Nick,

Eve was created with an ignorant mind, that was also an independent mind having it’s own  imagination. She had the choice to trust in God, but she failed.

Nick please DEFINE the devil in Revelation 2 using scripture.

Who is the devil that is going to throw men into prison?

Nick,

Because I do not define Satan as you do you accuse me of removing Satan?

Once again you express deceit/slander, when you say I have removed something that I have in all actuality spent much of my posts defining.

Please take the scriptures that have the word saw-tawn or diabolos and identify the identity of each one showing how they fit…[Read more]

I would like to highlight this from my previous post,

Jesus was not perfected by suffering from temptation of an influential evil supernatural entity, he suffered because he feared death and like all men was drawn to serve his flesh. …..14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15 Then when lust hath c…[Read more]

And the SERPENT represents any man or woman following their own mind and thus corrupting themselves.

Jude 1:10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

I correct myself in the Garden the serpent was Eve’s own deceiving mind,

Obadiah 1:3 The…[Read more]

2 Timothy 2: 26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.

1 Peter 4: 2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. 3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles,…[Read more]

John 6: 70 Jesus answered them, “Did I Myself not choose you, the twelve, and yet one of you is a devil?”

John 8: 44 “You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his…[Read more]

Nick,

You said “You say the serpent represents the spirit of man.(?]”

I have ACTUALLY said,

“Serpent-deceitful man”

Men have been likened to serpents for being liars, slanderers, deceivers and they do so from their own imaginations, out of their own hearts, from their carnal nature, that is what I have said repeatedly!

And I gave this scriptu…[Read more]

I DON’T BLAME God for the worlds problems, I have said nothing of the sort EVER. You are full of slander!

I have clearly said that the world’s problems are from wicked men caused by their OWN imaginations, this is the enmity AGAINST GOD.

You cannot produce a scripture that defines your satan or devil so it is very sad to see that this is what…[Read more]

Nick have you ever worked with people who are mentally ill? I have and I know all of the odd, crazy, absolutely horrible things that can come out of their mouths.

Daimonion

1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

20 And the rest of…[Read more]

Just like the Old Man is used to represent the body of sin, so too is the devil and satan used to represent the body of sin.  Jesus destroyed on the cross the OLD MAN and therefore the HIM that Jesus destroyed in another verse represents quite simply the OLD MAN,  in this case they used  SLANDERER (devil) however. Why? Because slander is a DEED of…[Read more]

You say

”Jesus destroyed the old man, he destroyed the devil, the man that is carnally minded”

Really?

And when and where was this man destroyed?

Sounds like more foolish and desperate doctrinal justification to me.

14…that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is,  the devil

6 Knowing this, that our[Read more]

The verse specifically says that Jesus is talking to Peter, it does not say he is talking to another being within Peter, “he turned, and said unto Peter”

On top of this we are told, “for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.” showing at the end of the verse he is in FACT talking to Peter and identifying why he ca…[Read more]

Daniel 8:6 And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power. 7 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to…[Read more]

23 But he turned, and said unto Peter,Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

Jesus called Peter an adversary for being offensive with the thoughts from his own mind coming from his own heart.

15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him…[Read more]

To be Satan is to have in MIND the things of MEN, this is expressed through Jesus’s own words, who also tells us that evil comes from WITHIN, he never says it comes from us being vessels allowing supernatural entities to influence us.  Satan is not a supernatural entity using snakes or mankind as vessels.  There was no literal snake in the Gar…[Read more]

Ed J,

The book of Isaiah is speaking about a MAN who says he will ascend to heaven and be like the Most High. The king was likened to the morning star, also known as the planet Venus. Pagan men of power believed they were gods, demanded they be worshiped as gods. They built high towers and said they dwelt in the heavens. God raises up and brings…[Read more]

Ed J,

Who is the adversary in Chronicles? We know that the word Satan means adversary, but who do you think this adversary is, that is my question.

Ed J,

Well the answer would be a yes or a no depending on which saw-tawn (adversary) you are talking about. That was my whole point in going through verses where we see saw-tawn. I’m sorry you didn’t catch that. The adversary in the book of Job, I have already shown in detail to be the hand of God, so he wasn’t serving himself, he was serving…[Read more]
