    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    Always refer back to greek, there you will find an answer. There is also something called the Critical Text, read about it on ask questions, see it what you think about it. I enjoy many different translations of the Bible, but for crucial anaylsis you wanna try to go back as far as you can to...

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    Revelation 13: previous #100 22 - No one is really sure who are what this second beast was. There does seem to be a general consensus, though, that this second beast is one and the same with the "false prophet" spoken of in Revelation 16:13; 19:20 and 20:10. In any case, we first notice that...

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    @stunnedbygrace - 13:3 - the notes beside each indication is the follow up by the next written part. Revelation 13: Previous: #98 14 - Remarkable detail about Nero's campaign of persecution is that it lasted just over 42 months, which verses 5 - 8 record as the length of time that would...

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    The Beast out of the Sea 1 The Authorized Version presents this line here but the Critical Text versions add this line at the end of Chapter 12. 2. This beast is a very different being than the seven headed dragon described in chapter 12. That creature represents Satan or the Devil; this...

    Hello Christ, If we lived in an economy where is demanded upon people to speak when they didn’t want to… that would just be an terrible economy don’t you think? Freedom, anyone can participate if they would like, say what they would like, not respond if they would like. As long as we can keep...

    What is wrong with Pride?

    That is alright, I am not interested in discussing it. I have learned just to just shut these things down, it has taken awhile to learn. Take care, Robert, thank you for participating.

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    Thank you brakelite. I’ll consider but the thing is, you insulted me by sharing a scripture that you asked about and called it weak… Nero was a bad bad bad man, he did so much damage and he died by the sword, by killings himself. I do appreciate the encouragement but I’ll probably always rely...

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    Believe what you will brakelite I don’t need insults from another individual. Thank you for participating though. I am still learning I got all the information I need to consider all the book of revelation from the book in the first post I’m just a lazy person. Thank God for his grace though.

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    God used the Roman Empire to destroy Jerusalem. You can read about historically from Cassio Dio, Tacitus, Josephus, and Suetonius.

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    I don’t believe I have been deceived at all: some believe it was Rome when it fell sometime in 426: but most of the revelation is dealing the nation of Israel and not Rome, though it does have mention of who would be used by God to destroy the Nation. God used the Roman Empire, to destroy them…...

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    land, the earth around your house is land. Now I don’t know the rest of that scripture that was shared but it might help identify everything being said contextually instead of taking it out of context. I don’t remember what is was and I’m getting tired… this house is hot someone broke the Ac...

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    Seventeen verse in Revelation 13 "17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is 666."

    Why don’t you believe Satan has been defeated?

    Then why the hell did they encourage people to be watching? The times and signs that Jesus gave where not just for show. Jesus also explained this. Matthew 24 I tell you the truth, this generation will not pass from the scene until all these things take place
