Satan's Children?

Hum, how to start this? I had a thought and came across some biblical words seeming to point to people of this world actually living by the spirit of Satan. this seemed odd at first, to think Satan has not only influence over the world but actually has spiritual children -- not unlike Believers of YaHshua and having the Holy Spirit.

Eph 2:2) ... in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. NIV

(Eph 2:2) You followed the ways of this world and obeyed the devil. He rules the world, and his spirit has power over everyone who doesn't obey God. CEV

(2Co 11:14-15) And it is no wonder. Even Satan tries to make himself look like an angel of light. So why does it seem strange for Satan's servants to pretend to do what is right? Someday they will get exactly what they deserve. CEV

What do you have in your study of the Word? Shouldn't we, as believer in Yahshua, be aware of this? Doesn't this this bit of knowledge explain why things never seem to change, no mater who rule? Satan's servants?

Satan and his servants do not appear, as in the movies but in a more casual way, preseting himself and his agents as ministers, or messangers of light.

(Rev 12:10) Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.

(Luke 10:18)He replied, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.(YaHshua witnessed Satan's fall to this earth)

Satan is here and and so are those he uses to misdirect, not only those that would believe but the world.

(2Co 11:14-15) And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve. NIV

Those that do not believe in Yahshua as the Savior are influenced, then, by the Spirit of Satan, or something like that -- something to think about. Be forwarned, do not accept everyone coming to you with a Bible in his or her hand. Study things fopr yourself, this is your responsibility as a folower and confessed believer in YaHshua as Savior.

(2Ti 2:15) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

We need to study the word and to "rightly divide" this truth. Get it? The Word of Truth is the Holy bible and it needs to handled properly. If it were intended to be a complete work fully understood we would not be given this admonition to "rightly divide". The Book is the Truth but need to be divided properly for a full understanding of what is meant and contained in the mystery of Salvation brought to us by our Savior YaHshua. Satan trys to interfer with this approach and has caused many well meaning individuals to go off the intended path. the Book is your guide and as you study its words be prepared to change the way you used to see things. As you give in more to the truth of this Book the Holy Spirit of our Heavenly Father and YaHshua will help you. You are the student, your study book is the Holy bible, you teacher is the Holy Spirit coming to you from the Same Spirit that raise YaHshua from the dead for us. Anyone claiming to be a teacher of the word, no matter how smart they may sound or appear, teaching anything as a "doctrine" that is contrary to the Book is to be rejected and avoid.

(2Cor 6:14) Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

(Eph 5:11) And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

The NIV reads, "... expose them." Hey, I did not write these words. Here is how it works in a world influenced by the spirit of Satan -- you, as a believer in the written word, your guide and the Holy spirit as your teacher are frozen by accusations of intolerance, peer pressure from the semi-deceived, the deceived, and the servants of Satan, to sit down and shut up. Find agreement where you can while dealing with people of the world, realative, co-workers, etc., for we are still in this world and our patients is demonstarted by our ability to endure a world society moving futher and futher from our Creator and our Savior -- this may put you on the outside, be ready for that. The religion of this world preaches another gospel, and another Christ and with a little investigation it is not hard to discover where this false religion came from. The tradtions of Christianity, mostly take, or inherited from the Roman Church, find their origins in the ancient religion of Babylon -- this ancient religion having hijacked the teachings of YaHshua and the Apostles.

See, Satan Among us--------- Peace, your servant, Dan
