Conclusion |
We
are not afraid of Satan and the demons because we believe in Him who is
greater than Satan and all his evil spirits (1 John 4:4); we believe in Him
who has disarmed the principalities and powers and made a public spectacle of
them, triumphing over them by the cross (Colossians 2:15); we believe in Him
who is the Head of all principality and power (Colossians 2:10), we believe
in Him who rose from the dead and went into heaven at the right hand of God,
and to whom angels and authorities and powers have been made subject (1 Peter
3:22). His name is JESUS CHRIST, glory to His name now and forevermore. Amen. |
We
are not afraid of Satan and the demons because we have overcome the devil (1
John |
Bear
in mind, however, that the fact that we have overcome the devil does not
entitle us to make fun of him or to call him names, for he is a prince and we
must treat him with respect. Remember that our Lord Jesus Christ did not
ridicule Satan, nor did He call him names, and that Michael the archangel, in
contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared
not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, ‘The Lord rebuke you!’
(Jude 9). According to Peter and Jude, false teachers speak evil of Satan and
his ministers (2 Peter |
