"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
The
problem here as I see it is not the cultural battle with Christianity,
but the almost overnight disappearance of America's
moral foundation, perped by groups inimical to
everything that made us the greatest nation in history.
In the ongoing effort to provide equal outcomes to all, Lefties complain that Christians are blessed with unfair advantages. And they're right! Christian Privilege is real.
Oh, oh, oh, I can answer that Ole Phat Stu's question!
Satan, aka Lucifer, is an Archangel who rebelled against God. Archangels are eternal beings. Eternal doesn't just mean infinitely long-lived, it means he exists outside of time. He has no past/present/future. Therefore, having rebelled against God, he cannot repent, repentance can only come to temporal beings like humans, we sin, we repent, we are redeemed, all happening along the time line. All demons are merely angels who've defied God.
It's a bit difficult to discuss, since human language doesn't have terms that really FIT eternal beings (note I say Satan REBELLED, past tense, a verb tense which has no meaning for an eternal being).
I don't understand this. Don't they justify the story of Christianity by being on the Satan team? It's the other half of the story.-Anymouse
ReplyDeleteHow come the Church folks never pray for Satan? After all, he's the one who needs it most ;-)
ReplyDeleteSatan, having been expelled from heaven by God, is beyond redemption.

ReplyDeleteSo, Hilliary, Obama, Reid & the rest are Satan? It does sound reasonable!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say: If Satan is beyond redemption, the clinton's are really fucked.
