You gotta admit, it would be kinda cool to say you rebelled against God.:manny:

Oh you fought the baddest dude in your hood? Well, let me tell you a story... :lolbron:

This is because if Christians had the answers to these (or any) questions, they'd no longer be Christians.

The truth is, these are mythological stories told by ancient primitives that didn't know how the world worked. This is why almost every single story they tell has logical holes, and this is one of them.

Why would a being that KNOWS God can instantly destroy it rebel against him? It doesn't make any logical sense. It also doesn't make sense that God allowed a rebellion in the first place. Like, what? You decided to fight against the ultimate being that knows the present, past, future, and has infinite power?

That sounds EXACTLY like the thinking of a primitive person to me.

Wait until you realize Noah's Ark is literally impossible :sas2:

I'm personally of this thought pattern and take a very Hebrew/Israelite approach that everyone has life to come after death, and "Hell" is for transgressions not for eternity.

Great post!!

basically my question is, if Satan knew God was literally the most powerful being in existence...why would Satan try to overthrow him, and with only a 3rd of the agels correct?

Let me first say I genuinely mean no offensive of any way

I personally believe in God, the Most High

I've just always wondered if he incorrectly thought he saw a weakness in God, or a vulnerability

everyone says it was Satan's arrogance, and me personally of course you would have to be arrogant to challenge the Creator, the most powerful, the most intelligent etc

like basically I rarely hear people say Satan is stupid, so...what was he thinking

I'm not looking for a right or wrong answers I just want your honest opinion

I love to learn, always have, but one of the main things I like about TheColi has so many intelligent people

Google ain't got nothing on some Coli Posters

but yeah, I've wondered that since a kid...thoughts

again I'm not trying to offend anyone

Where do you get your understanding of what “God” is?

Figure that out and should start from there, not asking about Satan. :manny:

I personally think God is too big to be defined basically, know matter how smart you are, I could write everything I ever thought of God, especially questions, and an old school dictionary wouldn't be enough paper

the reason I asked about Satan is simple, why would you challenge God and walk into a guarenteed L

as far as I know about Christinaity and Islam, and my personal beliefs especially, God has NO EQUALS, not even close, so when he created Satan, even though he basically hooked him up, taught him a lot, made him extremely attractive etc, and Satan knows he literally knows the boss of all bosses...why would you challenge that

like I said, why would you walk into a guarenteed L

but I asked on TheColi not to offend anyone

there are just a lot of smart, knowledgeable people on here who I have learned from, and I'm open to learning from younger people, not just older people

I met this one young dude in real life who was only 22...he gave me priceless advice, I'm still in touch with him and as a semi old head I look out for him and check on him from time to time

breh, I'm learning and asking questions from everything from spiritual questions in TLR, small things like the cologne game cuz I very recently stepped my cologne game back up so I'm in that thread
I ask questions in the Coliseum about the NBA and NFL even tho I follow both, I be in JBO looking at beautiful women and just trippin, if you ever need a good laugh pick literally any thread from JBO etc

it's just me breh, I love to learn

Once again...why "big" what if where God is is so small he cannot be perceived or vice versa :jbhmm: what makes you efficiently knowledgeable about The God if you don't know him?

Here is a thought experiment with this passage

Matthew 5:11-13

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

how many beings are spoken about without them coming to you personally and say this is what I am.

We ALWAYS try to answer this by using knowledge and theory OUTSIDE of The Bible, which is a no no.

What does Satan mean? It means adversary, which in essence means his nature was always in opposition to creation as tempter, accuser, and destroyer. That puts him in opposition to God.

It is an error that he wanted to be equal to God because people apply the parable of Lucifer from Ezekiel to Satan. Lucifer was more likely a fallen king, not an angelic being.

Satan is like a prosecutor and his whole existence was accusing and persecuting creation before God. See the book of Job. Look at the name Satan and what it means.

The overall theme of the Bible, and religion in general is, "shyt happens"

Nah. The overall theme definitely isn't that. The very 1st fukk up is not following basic, simple instructions. So if there's a theme, that would be the 1st place to look.
