“Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.”
—Matthew 10:16
EXALTING SATAN
The Bible warns, in the end times, the whole earth will worship the dragon (Satan). Not surprisingly, the churches are already far down the road to dragon worship.
“And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast…And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
—Revelation 13:4,8
One clue to the times in which we live is the amount of PR work undertaken by the mystery of iniquity for the prince of this world.
Another clue is the amount of exaltation given to Satan–especially by those in the churches.
The churches and those associated with them have labored ceaselessly to build up Satan into something he is clearly not.
1- Satan is NOT a god.
One of the biggest lies told today is that Satan is the “god of this world.”
Satan is not a god of anything.
He would LOVE to be a god (the devil craves worship)–and that’s why so many of his minions have worked so hard to promote this particular lie in the churches. When the churches call the devil the god of this world, they give him cheap worship.
And Satan is always looking for deceived people to worship him.
Isaiah 37:16 specifically declares Satan’s boast about the kingdoms of this world being his as an abject lie.
“O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth.”
—Isaiah 37:16
Satan is NOT the God of this World
2- Evil doesn’t begin and end with Satan.
Another way of exalting Satan: the New Age bible versions personify evil at every opportunity. In many places the NIV, New King James and other satanic counterfeit Bibles purposely and deceivingly change “evil” or “wickedness” into “the evil one.” (Just like they’ve changed “antichrist” into “THE antichrist.”)
Instead of asking God to “deliver us from evil,” the satanic churches and their dragon cults now ask to deliver us from “the evil one.”
Most churches should just put a “Hail Satan!” sign over their front doors and be done with it.

3- Satan and demons DO NOT have foreknowledge of events.
There are literally hundreds of counterfeit Christian websites. ALL (of which this writer is familiar) of them which deal with “deliverance” repeat the “Demons have limited foreknowledge” lie.
That is unbiblical. That makes it a lie.
Demons ARE highly intelligent: much more so than humans. Demons DO know what evil men are working on (mainly because much evil which men labor over, they have demonic guidance).
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
—Ephesians 6:12
Demons make educated guesses based on their better info, what they have planned and their higher intelligence.
BUT they are wrong many, many times.
Which is why those who depend on the demonic/familiar spirits for “predictions” are so often wrong. ‘Fortune tellers’ and those who ‘talk to the dead’ are MUCH better at revealing to someone what has already happened.
The future? Not so much.
This includes all of the so-called “prophets” of the Dominionist, Pentecostal and Charismatic movements. They are not only wrong–they are so spectacularly wrong, only other evil and deceived men would place any faith in them.
God Almighty is the only one who knows the end from the beginning.
“Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure”
—Isaiah 46:10
ALL that God Almighty has spoken will come to pass.
Satan is merely a deluded liar and manipulator who is on a short leash until his time is up and he’s thrown into the lake of fire.
“And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”
—Revelation 20:10
SATAN: DEFEATED
Make no mistake: Satan is a powerful foe.
But the devil is a conquered foe.
“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
—Colossians 2:15
However, the dragon is not without considerable guile, cleverness and deception. He does make trouble for humans every day.
Satan is a tricky guy.
AND, he snares the unwary.
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:”
—1 Peter 5:8
However, Satan is just ‘playing out the string‘ until he’s cast into the lake of burning fire.
The fallen prince (a created being) deceives those who are lost into following him on his downward spiral into destruction. And it works out for both the dragon and those who follow him: Satan gets cheap worship from the deceived and the lost fall for his lies and get cheap trinkets in return for an eternity of torment.
Do not fall for the lies of the dragon cults. Satan is not to be exalted. Do not let your church tell you Satan is the god of this world.
Or any other Satan-exalting lie.
“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.”
—2 Corinthians 2:11
THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
