What do you plan to do when Satan proclaims himself God?

Satan has greatly deceived the world. The world is NOTHING like he has led us to believe. The bible's very existence is PROOF that Jesus of Nazareth is God. The world will make Satan their king. Satan will have authority over the whole world & proclaim himself as God. He will offer MANY signs, all of them FALSE. He will prey on the ignorance of mankind. He will try to kill the image of God & replace it with himself.
"So I tell you what has to happen for you to believe my children? A sign? If you are seeking a sign you are seeking the evil one for it is he who will give you the signs you seek so that you may believe. He has already tricked you into doubting me. I AM the only one who can save you. Come back to me my children before its to late."

Here's more food for thought for those who believe in the bible...
Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely... He who controls the present, conquers the future; He who conquers the future, controls the past...
If god is infinitely powerful, that would mean he would be infinitely corrupt. And what if Lucifer, the greatest of gods angels, tried to right these wrongs and was cast into hell? God had won, the scriptures tell of His word. It is He who tells us that Lucifer was the one of evil ambition, yet how do we know? We can't because God has won and controls what we know.
So, would going to Hell actually be so bad? If Lucifer were to be righting the wrong of a corrupt being, would the domain he was cast into, and harbors all the sinning souls, be what we are told? Or would he try to create what heaven should be?

1 John 2:22 who is the liar if it is not the one that denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist the one that denies the father & the son.

This goes about the idea of us being the sheep and Jesus the Shepard. Well, we were given the ability to think for ourselves. Through being given this gift of sentient thought we have done good and we have done bad. However, being a sheep means giving up the gift of sentience. Therein lies the hypocrisy: We are given the gift of sentience and are told not to think for ourselves. Also, who are we to deny ourselves a gift from the all-knowing and all-powerful? If he never wanted us to be more than sheep, he shouldn't have bestowed us with such a wondrous gift.

Heyyy, isn't that some kind of metaphysical nepotism? Frankly, unless you include the Holy Mother, I'm not going to give much credence to your patriarchal Godhead. The books that were chosen for the canonical Bible were chosen by patriarchal, misogynistic and in all probability homosexual males whose legacy is evident in the Roman Catholic Church to this day (not to mention prominent televangelists).
Don't believe everything you read there Rube. You're giving way too much trust to the corrupt men who selected those words and who rejected others that would have lent balance with an opposite perspective. BTW, Jesus and Paul were BOTH in error about the immanence of the Apocalypse, if indeed they were actually referring to historical events instead of talking metaphorically and symbolically about one's inner state of being lived in the Eternal Present instead of time. Perhaps you haven't contemplated this as a real possibility. Perhaps you have no comprehension of what I am saying. Perhaps you too are a computer-generated program who cannot grok human organicity, synchronicity, simultaneity, and spontaneity. Neither could The Architect in 'The Matrix,' the Gnostic Demiurge, the Blakeian 'Nobodaddy.'

I'm up with the validity. It's the editors and the sheer humanity I'm iffy about. I'm also not big on those literal interpretations. I think Christ is the equivalent of a redemptive function, a symbol so to speak of a possibility that is inherent in us all -- on that much, we're probably in agreement. Where we may be in disagreement is that I also believe that different cultures have different symbols, not to mention -- different editors.

Yeah, I know all about the protection clauses that were introduced, pronouncing anyone anathema who adds or detracts from the canon (I earned a Master of Theological Studies degree from a reputable United Methodist seminary at Drew University, plus 29 years of post-Masters pondering). Can I hear you say: "What if?" just one time? You can do it! Imagine you've been hoodwinked like the majority of Humankind by a publication forged of many corrupt agendas. Multiple authors who go by the name of Paul (either that or one man with a Dissociative Disorder, formerly Multiple Personality Disorder). Book burnings?! Later, possession of scriptures resulted in the death penalty! For God sakes man, take off your blinders! The sky will not fall!
Heresy-hunters like Irenaeus, Hippolytus, Tertullian (who was later declared a Montanist heretic himself) set the stage for centuries of pure evil: persecutions, crusades, witch hunts, the Inquisition. These are a huge part of Christian history which based its justifications on the canon, and which are NOT Christian at all! None of it! Furthermore, you or anyone else cannot simply rationalize these things away. Christianity requires radical reformulation since it is painfully obvious that its institutional form does not work and never has. Only a few, essentially invisible Christians have ever understood and lived The Way.

1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
Revelation 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

I like how he just skipped over this post and will never answer it.
Demotriton: Can you speak like a normal human being and not a preacher. Do you talk like that with your friends? You sound like your possesed by the devil. How do you know the devil isnt possesing you and tricking you to believe that he is god?
Can you please answer these questions for me? If you do I'll go to church.

something like Alexander the Great then. So he'll be a glorious leader it would seem, for only the greatest kings get to become Gods on earth. Well he can count on my vote then.

MarkostheGnostic: unless you include the Holy Mother, I'm not going to give much credence to your patriarchal Godhead.
But of course -- Christos is the redemptive function for the feminine; Sophia serves in the same role for the masculine.
Quote:
Stanzas Of The Soul 1. One dark night, fired with love's urgent longings - ah, the sheer grace! - I went out unseen, my house being now all stilled.
2. In darkness, and secure, by the secret ladder, disguised, - ah, the sheer grace! - in darkness and concealment, my house being now all stilled.
3. On that glad night, in secret, for no one saw me, nor did I look at anything, with no other light or guide than the one that burned in my heart.
4. This guided me more surely than the light of noon to where he was awaiting me - him I knew so well - there in a place where no one appeared.
5. O guiding night! O night more lovely than the dawn! O night that has united the Lover with his beloved, transforming the beloved in her Lover.
6. Upon my flowering breast which I kept wholly for him alone, there he lay sleeping, and I caressing him there in a breeze from the fanning cedars.
7. When the breeze blew from the turret, as I parted his hair, it wounded my neck with its gentle hand, suspending all my senses.
8. I abandoned and forgot myself, laying my face on my Beloved; all things ceased; I went out from myself, leaving my cares forgotten among the lilies.

The onliest human. who proclaims he is GOD is the antichrist. Why do you think Jesus never proclaimed to be GOD ? That's what others did and immediately fall into the trap of SATAN. Those who proclaim Jesus as GOD worship SATAN, in fact. Christ and GOD are two different shoes !

oh, people often proclaim themselves god, powerfull people did that throuought millenia even during their life. Nothing wrong with that, its even sensible when the concept of god was not extremely abstract as today.

hello demotrition...
i'm not a church or religion man, and i respect what you are doing. i decide not to believe any of it, but i know that everything is possible.... so i'll never say that the antichrist/armageddon thing talked about in the bible is false.
if "satan" will problaim himself as "god", and they make all people "worship satan"..... i'm probably going to make sure i have a knife or some poison with me at all times. so i can kill myself before they get their hands on me to torture me, just because i am a man of love
peace to all believers and not-believers
