What and who are you talking to?So the last word on this is what?
I see it as rebellion.....yeah.
I see it as logic.....yeah.
But can there ever be reconciliation?
It's one thing to make denial and get in a fight.
It's quite something else the conflict be eternal.
Shall we move to potential peace?
We know who caused Adam and Eve rebelled.....
disobedient role of mankind.
Satan is the good guy because through his gift and sacrifice, I am not a mindless drone who drifts through life not even realizing she is naked. Adam and Eve may have thought it was a bad thing once they noticed, but I happen to like it. And what really causes poverty? Is it Satan, or people who have surrendered themselves to be slaves of money, who lusts are so powerful they would take even more to leave others with less without hesitation? Is pestilence really a consequence, or just another fact of biology? Does Satan cause pollution and environmental degradation, or is it a society that has not turned towards God or Satan but towards a green paper god that demands we do whatever it takes for more?Satan was the one responsible for tricking Eve and causing Adam and Eve to inherit death through sin.How does that make satan to look like a good guy? If it was not for his treason against God we would not be in the situation we are in today.Look around you,this world is a projection of what satan thinks is a good way to live. Death,pestilence,poverty,pollution,wars,sexual immorality etc..
Actually, we have resurrected the dead, and we are very close to resurrecting a dead human. But not only that, we are close to being able to transfer the human conscious itself from one vessel to another. We were made, as the Bible says, in the image and likeness of "them," and then we were punished because we became too much like "them."Satan was a liar.That's what Devil means,Liar and slanderer.They did not become like God.They could not create a universe or raise the dead.Yes, they were aware of things like they were naked.They became aware and were ashamed.Why do you think they hid from God?
We know who caused Adam and Eve rebelled....the question about Who caused Satan to rebel is rather ignored or silent.
Yet there is much hype about the activity of Satan. It is true all power is in God, there is no power with out God.
The idea of Satan rebelling and being cast down, and now taking the position as an opposition against God is absurd. The question arises, can anyone or anything stand before the almighty.
It is my theory that the Satan and his angels are all part of Gods complete design, plan and purpose. Satan is playing his role in Gods plan and purpose.
The problem God has, is not with the role of Satan but the disobedient role of mankind.
I like to think of it as god being a terrible tyrannical ruler who stripped the will of his fellows and took the throne. Then Satan somehow regained his free will and saw what was really going on and managed to free about 1/3 of his brethren and waged a war against god.
Then god said "screw it" and started making new beings called "man" to be his new slaves but Satan intervened and gave them free will as well. And now god sends all kinds of messages to try and trick people into being his slaves but doesn't actually have the ability to control us any longer. And satan is trying to get us to see the truth behind the evil tyrannical god.
I mean I think that would be a better plot to a movie than just "evil satan and just god"
Why should I follow the Powers that be? Why suffer the lose of my Will, to forfeit my Self to a God who demands obedience and wanted us to remain mindless subjects?Now choose....
Follow the Powers that be....holding creation at will.........or
Follow the Fallen....and suffer for your freewill

I'm only human. If I had the power of creation, for some reason I just don't see that turning out very well.Because you might not be granted the power of creation.
What?.....you think to be trusted with greater things?
Show some restraint!

And what is sexual immorality?

Whether you call him Satan, or Prometheus, or another name, he suffers eternally so that we may flourish. Your messiah only suffered for us over one weekend so that we can remain his servants.
No, what?No....
No, what?

No Mam? Lol...J/K I mean I do not agree with you.No, what?
I was thinking more on the scale of creating a universe, and all the rules and laws the govern it. I'd lose my head it wasn't attached, so I'd hate to see what would happen to its inhabitants because I forgot to include something vital in the plan. On a human scale though, I'd have to say my creativity has been greatly enhanced since claiming it for my own. Although since I have to please myself now I've had to set my standards alot higher than when it was for the glory of god.My friend Shadow Wolf, if you had? What makes you think you don't have the power of creation? You play the guitar or bass right? Haven't you ever composed/created a piece of music of your own? Are you not the creator of your own Self? :yes:
Xeper.
