Satan

Devil, Satan “is a title meaning the accuser”. In the Old Testament, the accuser works for God. Without any power of his own, Satan follows the command of God and does “the dirty work’. He was an angel in the book so he did not have his red skin or horns or goat hooves. Satan appears in the book of Job in which Satan claims that Job is only a pious man because he has a good life. God allows Satan to test the piety of Job by putting Job through certain trials. Although Satan reeks havoc…

Satan, the master planner, knew that during the Age of the Aquarius, the Adams and Eves from the lower dimensions would enjoy the opportunity to ascend permanently into Heaven by cancelling their Karma. He foresaw that Humans would have the golden opportunity of a 2200-year window, within which they might live consciously, repaying their Karma and ascending to heaven. Satan understood that the most important thing Humans would need to erase their karmic debts was time. He knew that the Adams…

“tail” could be a euphemism. Herodotus describes the hippopotamus and crocodile as denizens of Egypt (Histories, Book 2.68-71) and they appear together in a ceiling panel of the Ramesseum (REF) as opponents of the pharaoh. Behemoth and Leviathan may merge literal and mythic interpretations and exist on the edge (“liminal”) somewhere between natural observable reality and supernatural realities. If so, they may represent the undefinable realms of chaos on both land (Behemoth) and sea (Leviathan).…

The King James Bible and the York pageant ‘The Fall of Man’ differ in many ways in their presentation of the events surrounding Adam and Eve’s banishment from the Garden of Eden. In particular, there is a big difference in the level of detail, and the treatment of Eve with regards to her responsibility for the banishment. In this essay I intend to compare and contrast the accounts of the fall given in the bible and the play text, and consider how they portray Eve and her behaviour. In particular…

The Book of Job is an instrumental piece of religious literature. Widely regarded as one of the first poetic books of the Bible, the Book of Job is also an instrumental piece of world literature. The piece while religious in nature falls into the genre of wisdom literature as well, as its topic and subject matter is relatable to all regardless of religious beliefs. The author of the Book of Job is greatly debated as assume attribute Moses as the author, while others attribute Solomon as the…

angels Satan. Throughout the books Satan defies God and the debate starts whether Satan is a hero or anti-hero. I find in books one and two Satan appears more of a hero and that Blake was of not the Devils party. Book one of paradise lost explains that Milton was not of the devils’ party in regards to Satan was once an angel of light until he went against God. Satan rises off the Lake and challenges God with his speech to get God’s angels to turn there back and join the devils’ army. Satan in…

the small things and to remember who we all worship at the end of the day. He wants the world to not be based on several types of religious beliefs, but to all realize who God is. At the beginning of the story, there was a war between God and Satan. Satan and his rebels free away from the lakes of Hell and make a plan to attack God and his believers. God learns of his upcoming actions and prepares his council to be ready for his attack. According to Duke University…

The Screwtape Letters is about a senior demon named Screwtape teaching his nephew, Wormwood about how to tempt a man (the patient) away from God and towards Satan. One category of shared humanity in the novel is morality. This characteristic is best shown when Screwtape writes to Wormwood, “The patient does not “own” time anymore than he knows the owns the moon.” (67) This is important because it illustrates Lewis using logic rather than just blind faith to prove Christianity as true. While…

fitting and not a real ideal in terms of where the only imaginary being to be exercising it are seen as Satanic. Many acclaim the innocent and unspoiled Eden as home to complete freedom of will. However, the very example of the punishment and removal of Satan to Hell contradicts the belief. Not only is Adam considered more intellectual but also superior to Eve. Which undermines Eve’s credibility at making decisions as rationally informed as Adam which, in fact, frames Eve as more vulnerable to…
