Satan's Only True Lie
Many times in the bible it tells of Jesus Christ rebuking Satan, and his evil spirits, into silence. So why didn't God rebuke Satan into silence when he told the lie to Eve that she would not die if she ate of the forbidden fruit? The answer lies in God's ability to foresee the future. When God created the tree of the knowledge of good and evil he knew that he would have to send his son to die for man's sin and rescue him from that promised death of disobedience. So while Satan thought he was spreading his lie to Eve to get her to sin he was actually glorifying God by showing that, through Satan's own lie and Eve's sin, God would intervene and prevent man's (but not Satan's) ultimate death, an existence without God forever in hell!
Satan was therefore actually telling the truth with his lie all the while he was completely ignorant of that fact. Satan deluded himself into thinking he was God but he could not even tell that his lie would ultimately be the truth. So why do people still believe that Satan is this all powerful spiritual being capable of defeating God! Satan, in his very first sin in the Garden of Eden, was shown to the fool and fraud that he really is!
God Bless
note:
Many churches, and individuals, are suffering from God's rebuke into silence. Consider that Satan appeared to Eve as a serpent. Satan could not appear to Eve as a man, or even as another woman, for he had become evil and God will not allow his image to be used for evil. Satan feared instant judgment if he took on the image of God himself for God will not allow evil to masquerade as goodness (which is why there is judgment and hell - for man was created in the image of God and God abhors the use of his image to do evil). Which means that when churches, and individuals, advocate the evil of abortion, homosexuality, divorce, unwed copulation, etc. these churches, and individuals, governments, businesses, etc, will be rebuked into silence by God. Meaning that they will dwindle into obscurity with declining attendance (population) and loss of prosperity.
Also remember that in the Garden of Eden (Paradise), where God walked with man, that no lie could ever be uttered. Therefore God permitted Satan's lie knowing that ultimately it would be the truth only after God's own son would have to die on the cross for our sins.
Satan also could not bring a falsehood into the Garden of Eden, meaning that he could not appear as a man or a woman, for God created man in God's own image. This meant that Satan was admitting that he was not, in fact, God. If Satan truly believed he was God, or deserved to be God, he would have appeared as a man and not a serpent– since man was created in the image of God. Once again I can't fathom why people would glorify Satan and his evil cohorts when even Satan didn't have courage to take on the image of God, ie man, in the Garden of Eden!
Please, if any person reading this is still unsaved then now is the time to come to your senses. Don't be cast into the fire of hell along with Satan and his evil cohorts just because of your stubbornness of believing that you don't need salvation. To gain salvation just believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross and was resurrected back to a life with God the father in heaven in order to offer you forgiveness for ALL of your sins – past – present - and future!
Amen
