The Devil is Destroyed we are Free!

[Elvispelvis]

David stood up against God's enemy without fear!

David understood that Goliath could do nothing if God did not will it to happen.

If God is for me who can be against me!

Jam 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Here we are told that Satan will run away from you in fear if you resist him.

Have faith in the power of the Heavenly Father.

Jesus has destroyed the devil and I believe it.

There is no need to be afraid, or fret what satan can do to you, if you believe
the Bible.
If you do not free yourself from worry thats your fault because
clearly it says Jesus has destroyed the devil.

Then He says HE DID IT TO CLEAR US OF BONDAGE
THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE, LET GO OF THE DEVIL, JESUS DESTROYED THE DEVIL!

Hbr 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

Hbr 2:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

Rejoice! Again I say Rejoice! The devil is dead.

Re: The Devil isn't destoryed we are in danger !

It sure would be nice if untrue but:

1 John 5:19 (Contemporary English Version)

We are certain that we come from God and that the rest of the world is under the power of the devil.

At least we know that we can not blame God for the evil in the world,that would be pure blasphemy.

As predicted in these last days before the Rapture,Satan and his demons are now working double time to get as much of their work done as possible before some of their targets are taken to heaven to protect them.

1 Timothy 4:1-2 (Contemporary English Version)


God's Spirit clearly says that in the last days many people will turn from their faith. They will be fooled by evil spirits and by teachings that come from demons. 2They will also be fooled by the false claims of liars whose consciences have lost all feeling. ed

Although Jesus repeatedly removed demons from people He never put Satan into any type of captivity so His Disciples and the Apostle Paul still had to heal people from demon possession after He was raptured into heaven.

Acts 19:11-13 (Contemporary English Version)


11God gave Paul the power to work great miracles. 12People even took handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched Paul's body, and they carried them to everyone who was sick. All of the sick people were healed, and the evil spirits went out. 13Some Jewish men started going around trying to force out evil spirits by using the name of the Lord Jesus. They said to the spirits, "Come out in the name of that same Jesus that Paul preaches about!

Actually Satan will never be destroyed,just held in captivity in hell.He will however be released for a short period of time to tempt the saved,in one final repudiation of the "once saved always saved" heresy,during Jesus' 1000 year reign on earth to make one final determination of who has won the right to an eternal life with God due to their obedience.

Revelation 20:7-9 (Contemporary English Version)

7At the end of the thousand years, Satan will be set free. 8He will fool the countries of Gog and Magog, which are at the far ends of the earth, and their people will follow him into battle. They will have as many followers as there are grains of sand along the beach, 9and they will march all the way across the earth. They will surround the camp of God's people and the city that his people love. But fire will come down from heaven and destroy the whole army.

WHAT A TERRIFIC IDEA! :bounce Definitely better than trying to wage human wars!!

LOOKS LIKE WE JUST DISCOVERED THE CHRISTIAN VERSION OF THE "WAR ON TERRORISM" !!! 3
