Thank you Charles,

I know how you feel as a Christian, when you find your mind not centred on Christ.

Perhaps I have a "thing" about the way Christians give so much credit to Satan when they write or talk about being attacked personally by Satan.
Should Satan desire to attack us personally, I wonder if we would ever survive, seeing that our Lord Himself needed sustenance from an angel, after the personal confrontation He had with Satan. Mat 4:11

Fortunately the Lord has limited Satan, he is Not Omnipresent, neither Omniscient, or Omnipotent. Because of this I believe he would rather share whatever time or space he has, with world leaders, rather than us.

Strangely enough I have pointed this out a number of times, yet I notice that Satan is still been given all the credits he does not possess, in posts I read here.

Still I guess that all demonic activity people experience, is in fact associated with Satan, hence their reference to him instead of demons.

Have a Blessed New Year.
Ron

Yes all evil influence come from Satan, He is belezebub, he is the chief of confusion, and when lesser fallen angels attack you, they are following orders from their prince of the earth. Satan was trusted with the most precious place in Heaven before he filled his created mind with pride and selfishness. He will stop at nothing (except the coming of the Mesiah) to get you confused and make you feel unworthy. His main goal is to kill you because he lost the fight against the spirit that inhabits our souls. We have a sure chance for our spirits to return to the original spirit while he and his ghouls are faced with for ever and ever torment. The fallen Angels where born into the sure knowledge of GOD which gives them no excuse to doubt Love. Earth creatures and us humans, are born trying to figure this Love thing out which brought about a merciful GOD. Satan hates mercy because he has none. His sin was serious because he performed it directly in the heavenly temple of GOD.
