Ok so this is something that I personally have an issue with ... respect for the Devil.
So why the topic ?
Well let's take a look at Jude 1:8 - 10,
Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile angelic majesties.
But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare
pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"
But these men revile the things which they do not understand; and the things which they know by instinct, like
unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed.
So the devil is evil and we are commanded to hate evil, but here the context is not evil but office or position.
And in context, we can see that Jude is affirming this.
I would like some thoughtful unemotional responses if you please ... if that's at all possible when discussing the current
subject or object of this world's misery and pain.
If at all possible ... try to "stay on target".
