The war against Satan.

[Guest Man_of_the_Lord_Jesus_Christ]

I turn on my television set to images of war, death, disease, destruction, sin, blasphemy and everything anti-Christian you can imagine. More and more people are turning away from Christ to pursue a selfish life of pleasures of the flesh. How do you fight this? Satan is so powerful, is it possible for all us Christians to join together and fight him? I have had personal horrorish experiences with the unholy one before. He has attacked me and tried to make me worship a false idol Christ.

Society now believes Satan is false and just another demon in mythology. Some liberal Church's flat out REJECT Satan and Hell! Talk about sheep in wolves clothing. How do we fight Satan and convince people to come to Christ when society has rejected Satan as real? Sure there are still Christians out there today but we are outnumbered. The Lord Jesus Christ has been replaced by a more eastern, buddhist new age type of Jesus who is a univeralist. THIS IS DANGEROUS THINKING. I'm worried, very worried. My own daughters have fallen victim to the trickery of Satan.

Christians must unite together and declare war on the father of lies in the name of God.

I turn on my television set

Satan makes a lot of use of that little box.

I recommend reading your bible and praying a lot, and the worry will go away, and your daughters then have a hope in Jesus Christ.

Satan is defeated. He was defeated long ago, but he does keep up an active advertising program, and all that agree to be taken captive by him, he certainly is willing to take them captive.

We Christians must love the Lord Jesus Christ, and we must obey Him. He said search the scriptures, not just glance at them from time to time if you are not too buzy watching TV.

He said to pray without ceasing. He said to do a lot of things that are for our benefit if we do them.

The devil goes forth to deceive the whole world, but we as Christians need not be deceived. God is not mocked. The devil will get his rewards in the proper time.

We are given the ability to set the captive free, and the lie that the devil is somehow so big is the first "captivity lie" that we need to be free from.

Jesus Christ made an open show of him. Satan is defeated.

This won't work as long as you think it's ok to have a television to turn on.

How deep do you want to go with this?

In CHRIST JESUS

And as long as we Christians keep giving satan power, he'll have that power to use........ The Bible tells us satan IS DEFEATED. But by our words we can take Christ's power and speak it into the kingdom of satan. STOP IT!!!

[Guest Thomas I believe]

An interesting subject but really quite simple. Leonard is right the Bible says satan is defeated. It is we the people that give him power back. Emotions are a very good example of that. I would have to say fear and a lack of confidence is an open invite fo satan. Satan will use many vehicles in this world to get at us. Tv movies music etc and many more our his tools he uses. Jesus gives us the rules and the words to live by and we have to trust 100 % in the word. If we don't trust 100 % in God we are leaving an open door for negative feelings negative actions in our lives etc.. Its through this door that satan enters and corrupts our lives. Its hard to don't get me wrong as none of us are perfect! But Focus, Faith and Trust in God is essential to sucess in our Lives. I always keep satan at bay the best I can. I always keep it foremost in my mind and heart that he has no power and I voice that to myself constantly. I always like to keep satan under my foot instead of him having his foot on me.The only way satan can influence our lives is if we let him. So plain and simple don't give him the power over you. Focus on God constantly. We have to make a mental note to do this frequently everyday. Stay in Gods word and always pray for protection from those dark spirits that are always there waiting for us during our weak times.

In His Peace, Michael

Saint's,

Call me Phinehas if you wish?

I do not like when I see three threads in one forum that are devoted to my enemy. I give no quarter to him. I am not born of the spirit of fear nor intimidation. I am born of the Spirit of God. A son of the most High by the Righteous Blood of the Lamb, Jesus.

This enemy is already defeated. I will now take the focus off of him and let us all place it back on Christ. This ends now.

I appreciate the answers of the Saint's of God, also the questions. Please remember that this is a site devoted to the Lord. Let us shift our focus on Him and be mindful that the battle is already won.

Peace,

Dave
