Satan has his crosshairs on Israel (obviously). If he can destroy Israel then he would make God out to be a liar - His prophecies won't come to pass.



And herein lies my biggest problem with what modern Christians say. I don't believe in Satan, since it makes no sense. WHY would an ALL POWERFUL God allow a NOT all powerful being to disrupt the lives of His children? I WOULDN'T EVEN ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN TO MY CHILDREN, so WHY would God!?

It's not fair. It's not just, and it makes no sense.

Time for Christians to accept that the Devil is just their scapegoat and the real evil lies inside of them. If you can't accept that the problem is your own desires and poluted consciousness then you cannot be healed. 


Satan and his demons are real.  One of the biggest trick Satan pulled is having people believe he doesn't exist. And you fell for it hook, line, and sinker.

If Satan is a real person who can - against my will - inflict suffering and turmoil, then that makes God a father who doesn't care about me, one of His children.

Why doesn't God just exterminate Satan!? He's all-powerful right? Or don't you believe that? If you do, then you MUST accept that He's not willing to give all His children an equal chance at escaping eternal suffering. Eternal suffering is not something that will be allowed by an omniscient and all-compasionate Lord. Surely you can grasp this?

Now let me tell you; my dad is a minister so I went to Church twice every week. I have always been religious, but at some point I just knew there's more to spiritual life than that. I seriously started meditating and praying early in my life, and read about St Francis and St Augistine and also about the lives of Buddhist saints. Then I realised that Jesus tought something very similar to Buddhism. Upon further examination I found that Jesus most probably went to India during the missing years of his Biblical-biography. Fascinated by this discovery I learnt that in the Vedic tradition there is quite a lot known about a 'Saint Issa from the West'. Stunned to learn that Jesus was a student at some point as well, I finally comprehended that spiritual science must be - as with God - Universal.

There cannot be partiality in God. These 'I am Muslim', 'I am Christian', 'I am Hindu' designations that we impose on ourselves only further our misidentification with this temporary, material body. Black, white, red or yellow, the Soul is the same, so God shouldn't favour one group over another.

These are surely basic truths? Also, claiming that God is exclusive to a particular religion will systematically alienate deep thinking people from religion - exactly as is happening more and more - therefore,

Can't we all just get along?


Satan can't do anything he wants. Otherwise all of humanity would be dead right now. God has given him limits on what he can do.

You're not God's child unless you are "born again" by the blood of Jesus Christ. If you have to believe in your heart  and confess Jesus Christ died for your sins and was raised from the dead then you are saved. God seals you with His Holy Spirit - God's spirit supernaturally resides in you. It's not about being religious. Being religious is not going to get you saved. It's truly believing in your heart Jesus Christ and His works on the cross and knowing Him. If you did know Him you would know Jesus Christ is the Truth, the way, and the life and the only way to the Father. There is no other way for salvation but by Jesus Christ. Truth by it's nature is exclusive.

Satan and his angels and those who didn't believe in the Gospel and names who weren't written in the Book of Life will eventually be destroyed in the Lake of Fire after the 1,000 year reign of Christ. I don't know why God allows Satan to deceive and tempt many but it is my belief it is for testing if people will follow the truth and God instead of lies and their sins. Just about all the prominent people in the Bible faced testing.

Satan is alive and deceiving the nations. Just check out my thread I posted on another forum that gives evidence of his works http://www.imdb.com/board/bd0000108/flat/186518662?d=186530288#1865302%20%2088


(coming from a religious person) I'd rather hang out with atheists than people like you. You sound exactly like the fundamental Islam guys in my class. What I would like to know is whether you are feeling at peace when you speak these things(?). I would be pretty confident that your blood is boiling. This is a hate speech. I'm interested in good philosophical discussions based on scripture/logic/revelation/history. You are interested in the same thing all other short-sighted humans are: conversion.

I'm out.
