Nefarious Movie (2023) - Demon Explains To Atheist Doctor Their Plan Against Humanity

[@AbideandBelieve]

One of my favorite movies of 2023, reminds me of The Screwtape Letters by CS Lewis.

"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity." ~ HOLY BIBLE, Matthew 23:27

[@tomosjackson4760]

An excellent point. Once again the "freedom" we hear of so much today is not a "freedom to" but rather a "freedom from". Free from responsibility Free from morality Free from authority free from duty

[@E-0921]

My take away on it is that while yes the demon went from one master to another master. The differences is that “Lucifer” or “satan” acknowledges that he and the other demons should have free will and be able to act on that just as we do. God has his reasons for why angels, fallen or otherwise, can’t act on it but we can. Lucifer is obviously gonna be the one that leads now as he did before the fall from grace. And he’s gonna allow them that free will.

[@catsupchutney]

The demon complains about the Creator restricting his role to one of slave, but has no hesitation referring to Satan as master.

[@AbideandBelieve]

Good point... and his master has lots of nicknames, "deceiver, accuser, adversary."

[@crazypantz3492]

I don't see it as mutually exclusive. A free agent choses, a slave obeys. You can follow someone freely and still oppose slavery

[@jinpachibobochan3532]

Yeah, well, but that doesn't imply a relationship between owner and slave. The term "master" was usually used as a title to someone above you in social standing or so, like the apprentice calling the teacher master, and such. Slavers with too much ego liked to be called that as well in order to feel more important. But these same slavers had to call their local aristocracy and such master, too, sometimes, depending on the year.

[@thedevilsadvocate8766]

Hell has a hierarchy, just as Heaven does. In fact, each is a mirror opposite of the other. The Supernal/Infernal hierarchy, from highest to lowest: God - Lucifer 7 High Archangels - 7 Princes of Hell Seraphim - Satans ("Satans" as from the Hebrew "satanim" mean "adversaries") Cherubim - Se'irim (lowest of all created beings, analogous to Roman fauns or Arabic djinn) Ophanim/Thrones - Beasts Dominions - Kings (kings are of lower rank in hell, "prince" being a shortening of the Latin "principium" or "first") Virtues - Dukes Powers - Lords Principalities - Marquis' Lesser Archangels - Generals (some sources say that only the 7 Highest angels are the "Archangels" while the rest in this heavenly rank are just Angels. Others state that in addition to the 7 Highest Archangels, Archangels are a separate classification and rank of themselves. These are akin to commissioned military officers like Lieutenant, Colonel, Major, etc above the lesser, "non-commissioned" rank of angel. I include both views here) Angels - Legions (this last rank of both hierarchies is properly thought of as the common foot soldiery, the cannon fodder if you will, of the Supernal and Infernal armies) In both realms, the title of "Master" derives purely from the circumstances of the Eternal War. God and Lucifer each hold complete, total, and final say, arbitration, and control over their armies making the title of "Master" appropriate in a religio-literary sense, if not a true military sense.

[@jinpachibobochan3532]

@@thedevilsadvocate8766 Yeah, no. Hell doesn't exist. It's an invention of some corrupt people to keep control over people with one of the older instruments for such stuff: fear. There's a purgatory and that's it. It's a place where people go and reflect on their lives or whatever until they are free of whatever drags them down and then can rise up. Some special evil degenerate people end up in the void where they fade away - stuff like serial rapist, hardcore nazis, etc. There's no hell as Lucy was just a dumb jealous kid. Lucifer was one of the strongest angels, yeah, maybe, but that didn't put him anywhere near the level of God. You can rebel as much as you want, but you can't do heck against a being that thinks stuff like the universe into existence in mere moments. I'm not especially religious or such, but I accept that God exists and that he's omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent in the past, present, and future, and whatnot, and thus, hell doesn't exist because it's inefficient and unlogical and something people dreamed up becuase they didn't know better at the time they lived in. Jesus never acknowledged the existence of hell either, but he did of the purgatory, or at least some form of afterlife outside paradise. He said it himself to his people that they shouldn't fear death as it won't stop them from reaching paradise even if they feel that they aren't up the the standards. Probably means that even in death, you get a second chance. Look at creation and you see that God may be everything but inefficient. Hell is inefficient.

Genesis 2:7 the Lord God forms His representative in their system. (wheat) One Gospel: Gospel (GOOD ANGEL) of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever. Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods). REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.

It breaks my heart because, the doctor gets it right immediately, "Why don't you build something instead of acting like this?" And the demon's like, 'No, we have to punish God.' As if that will make Him love them and take them back. Poor stupid demons. If I'd been there I would have told him, "Dude, I walked away from my abusive family and I don't think about them anymore.

How could they be so terrible if that's what they came from?

James ultimately took the deal Nefarious offered him. Nefarious explains that it’s the small choices that lead to greater and greater sins, the greatest being the denial of God’s power to save his soul. By accepting Satan’s authority to save his life at the cost of his soul, James acknowledges Nefarious’s supposed right over life and death, effectively making Nefarious his god. This eventually leads to full possession. Remember, Nefarious’s goal was for James to publish his book. When James says 'god help me,' it’s clear he’s referring to Nefarious as 'god' with a lowercase 'g.' This is confirmed when James publishes the book and Nefarious is still able to speak to him at the end.

The fact that Hollywood turned its back on this movie is the proof to me that satan already has complete control over the industry. As long as Satan convinces those he doesn’t exist, the more carnage he can carry out. We need Jesus desperately right now!

[@ashtonpierce3109]

You understand that the this video literally describes a story that would considered heresy in any church in the world right? Maybe holly wood turned their back on this movie because it was actually promoting Satan, ever think of that ?

[@ernstlangmann]

Hollywood would rather go for movies like the Pope's Exorcist and shows like Evil showing fictionalized fantasy over things like this that speak the truth.

[@EphemeralProductions]

Exactly. And they turned it down also because it would have been found “boring” by moviegoers since it’s just a conversation and none of the action or supernatural that sells. Which is sad, in many ways.

Lol he knows more about theology than any human ever, but still can’t realize he lost, again, because Christ atoned for humanity’s sins with his life, death and resurrection.

[@stephenleathers6395]

Even so, that doesn't change the reason for God's "salvation". To replace the fallen angels in heaven as slaves to eternal worship. The demon makes a few very solid points

[@TheHigherVoltage]

Don't try to apply logic or reason or intellectual honesty to religious claims. You'll always fail and realize it's all BS. Just keep that faith against reality going.

[@Mihayan1]

did he attone for demonity's sins as well tho?

[@TheHigherVoltage]

The Christian mythology falls apart when you realize human existence in this universe is pointless, according to the claims made. The myths have saints being up in heaven, hanging out, having free will, and sinning. Opps...kicked out. So then humans are suppose to have been made...and given a "test" to see if they're worthy of heaven. And absolutely nothing stopping them from sinning once they get there. Makes the whole concept of "life is a test" completely meaningless when you can still sin in heaven and get kicked out.

Fallen angels are those angels that rebelled in Heaven and the Demons are their disembodied offspring of fallen angels.
