English Standard Version, Ezekiel 18:
Matthew 10:
However, metaphorically, you sell yourself to the devil by doing his evil will, John 8:
In any case, no Christians should bargain with the devil. Doing so is a sin, James 4:
You cannot sell your soul in the legal transaction sense. Satan cannot own your soul.4 Behold, all souls are mine; the soul of the father as well as the soul of the son is mine: the soul who sins shall die.
Matthew 10:
Satan can destroy a person's body.28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.
Only God can destroy a person's soul.Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
However, metaphorically, you sell yourself to the devil by doing his evil will, John 8:
But this is not a legal contract. You can always repent and turn to God.44 You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires.
In any case, no Christians should bargain with the devil. Doing so is a sin, James 4:
Matthew 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Do not bargain with a liar.8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9“All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
10Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan!
Trust God. Keep your covenant with God.For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’ ”
11Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.
