Freind,

For those that live as Christians; Like Christ; Satan has no power, except temptation therefore we must test our thoughts. If the thought is not in line with God's Word, than it is in line with the Devil.

For someone who has such limited power. he sure is doing a great job of wrecking this world. Its us who give him the power and authority, when we listen to and do the things he asks, evrything from lust, hate , jealousy, unfogiveness, drugs,, alchohol abuse, power, greed, ye , he is not as limited as you think.

He's actually limted to what God allows him to do.

That's not giving the devil power, that's rebelling against God. There's a difference.

Just as James said. "For Christians he has no power except temptation" and he is correct. But scripture does call satan "the prince of this world" and so for those who are not saved IE the rest of the world he does have power.

Kinda goes to show that his intellict is far above our own. He only has the power that G-d gave him nothing more nothing less. Like the others say we only give into his power when we turn our feet off the straight and narrow path. I don't think he creates the lust, jealousy but provides the circumstances where we can explore and consume those things.

Ohhhh yaaa mizzdy. You are correct. What ever he wants to temp us with he will put in front of our faces.

i agree. yes, he can only do what God allows him to do, but God allowed him to do an awful lot to job! when we open then door to him, he walks through. he does have teeth, and he will use them. he is so much more than the little red guy on our shoulder with a pitch fork whispering in our ear. i believe the more ignorant we are of his power, the more power he has!

Thats right and it was God who brought up the name of Job first.

Too often we forget it is our personal responsbility in all of our choices, we are never forced to do the right or the wrong.

Luke 10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through Thy name.

Luke 10:19 Behold, I (Christ) give unto you power to tread on serpents (Kenites) and scorpions (fallen angels), and over all the power of the enemy (Satan): and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Luke 10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
