I have found, in listen to BEMA, that I have become much more comfortable sitting with the Questions then I was in trying to have all of the answers. Thank you so much Marty and the BEMA Team!

A book I can recommend: Michael Heiser. The unseen realm. I think it is closer to the truth than your story.

Yes I agree . Heiser had unveiled so many truths of-reading scripture in its TRUE context . Has many teachings on you tube by Heiser. Of course he’s a teacher… aids in showing all that the Bible wasn’t written n TO US in the 21st century. He wrote TO the 1st and 2nd Temple Jew.. their worldview.. they understood the unseen realm…. Blessings to alljust please seek out Heisers guidance. He has helped many

When I asked myself why I wonder about satan…I think I was in the realm of asking, could God be good and create a known adversary that would allow evil to exist if ALL GOOD THINGS COME FROM GOD? The answer…UNDOUBTEDLY GOD IS GOOD. So I’m left wondering am I even capable of identifying evil as a human…it’s just no way around the mushiness lol

I struggle with that as well. If God is all knowing and all-powerful, then He must have knowingly created Satan knowing he would rebel, and he created the tree of knowledge of good and evil knowing that Adam and Eve would take of it and eat. If He's all powerful, wouldn't he have a solution to all this before it even happened? Unless He himself is bound by a set of actions. People always talk about God's intended path for humanity, but wouldn't He know what path would ultimately come to pass?

@@xXESproductionsXx You sound like you've been in my head! LOL. Since becoming a parent, I can report that allowing free will and announcing healthy boundaries and consequences are the best I can do for my kids. It's almost like God allowed humans this responsibility to get a sense of what he's dealing with (and his immeasurable patience). :)

Being a literalist, do you believe there was a real "person" tempting Jesus in the wilderness? But if Satan is just a title for the adversary, was it demonic forces tempting Jesus? But that would go against your literalist perspective. You confuse me Marty. 😁 BTW I'm a literalist too. And I do believe Jesus was tempted by a real "person." But now I'm wondering was that entity in spirit form? Why wouldn't the gospel just say that then? Now I'm REALLY confused! Thanks a lot Marty. 🙄

I've reached a conclusion about who demons are, at least one that works for me. Disembodies spirits of dead nephilim from Genesis 6.

Thank you for your thoughts on this subject. I too have been pondering this created entity. I like researching the Hebraic understanding and 2 commentaries agreed that hasatan is the adversary. What was very interesting was that the adversary was not given a name. Unfortunately we fall into false doctrine when we follow "man's" understanding and not YHVH's. Sad to say, man gave the adversary a name, and took YHVH's name away, (the Lord). It keeps us from that intimacy with our Heavenly Father through Yeshua, but in turn, we get to know our adversary up close and personal? Oooo, not good. Many times we ourselves become hasatan when we are contrary, perverted in our ways if it is not Torah. Like when Yeshua told Peter, Get thee behind me hasatan! He was contrary to the plan of YHVH. So I too, like you ponder, but as we continue to "die to self" and obey His commands, because of His covenant, He will guide and protect us, and continue in this journey. Shalom!

That's about the size of it for me too. Just letting my mind wander here, but if Jesus could address Peter with: "Get behind me, Satan", then whomever he encountered in the wilderness could be anyone-maybe even a misguided Essene.

I’m confused? What if you put God in place of where you just used the name Satan? What’s real?
@walkitoff117Ай бұрын
I do not believe "satan" is a cognitive entity. So, there's that :-)

Why are we talking about Satan in this manner? I’m not lost at all! Is Satan real? Answer is …. Yes! There’s no discussion around the reality of who Satan is, how he causes us to stray from the written Word of God or that Old Serpents future. God tells to study His Word, to go through it line by line, precept by precept. Every time someone took it upon themselves to do what’s being done here has answered to God. It’s written, go and see. Study and make yourself approved unto God.
