Rebuke the devil!

Same here.

I’ll clarify so the thrift was a traveler who stole a ram, and probably had other stolen items in his bag.

And bongs have water in them, the stem of the bowl goes into the water, it’s lit with fire.

Anytime Satan enters our mind, drag him to the immeasurable thread, God is so praiseworthy, that should be enough to scare the enemy

Indeed because even though the deceptions run extremely deep in society but only to point for it’s still measurable.

Leave it to God, this would sound like an "overkill"

♪♫ Satan, your kingdom must come down... ♫

The bible states clearly to RESIST the ADVERSARY by being steadfast in the FAITH <---the system of teaching found in the word....I will note that JESUS was TEMPTED 40 DAYS in the WILDERNESS......and it was not until AFTER these 40 days that we have the account of SATAN tempting CHRIST by the lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and the pride of LIFE......and in ALL three occasions JESUS quoted scripture from Deuteronomy........

We have NO IDEA of what he went through that 40 days BEFORE the temptation of the bread, casting himself off the pinnacle of the temple and or falling down and worshiping Satan for power over all worldly Kingdoms....We do know that he was tempted in ALL points as we are tempted and yet did not sin.......

Satan walks about as a roaring LION seeking whom he may devour...........He is called the KOSMOKRATOR <---world ruler..........give him an inch and he will take it ALL......!!!

Jude
[9] Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

John 16:2

Well there was things that happen that lead to why these was used.

1. after 40 days anyone would be hungry,

2 he was taken to high mountain and shown all the world kingdoms.

Jesus didn’t have a place to lay his head, he wasn’t part of any of the religious status of the day nor part of the roman world etc he had none of that, and satan knew who he was.

3. a crowd grabbed him and took him too a cliff to cast him off but he walked right through the crowd he avoided being toss off, satan tempted him on that.

Where there is light there cannot be darkness.... By virtue of faith and mercy, the adversary Satan, has no power over you. Yes, love your enemies and show them kindness, even turn the other cheak, because Satan does have dominion over THEM. But, if your enemy is intent upon your life, you do not offer him your throat.

I do not know satan, but what I do know is Jesus has authority over him and other demons.

7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
James 4

So how can I have anger against the enemy, but rather I have love for Christ and stand in His ways, and by
His authority. Wise words were spoken here,

9 But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses,
did not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"
Jude 1

So I am not sure anything we could focus on here reflects to the Lords glory.
Our failure is in sin and our walk, not the enemy. He just exploits sin and the weaknesses of man, but
he has been defeated and over thrown.

7 And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon,
and the dragon and his angels fought back.
8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven.
9 The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan,
who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
Rev 12

And as a consequence, this world is ruled by evil in high places. We are the restraining spirit, the body of Christ, that keeps Satan at bay. "WE" must be taken away (the rapture) before Satan can show his full power. We have been at war with the adversary, and slowly losing, every day since Adam and Eve. If not for faith and God's mercy we would all be doomed. Jesus said, "If they persecute you, remember they first persecuted me." Satan didn't crucify Christ, "WE" did! And Satan would love for us to continue crucifying Him... I will never hold my tongue in the face of evil men!

This is an interesting interpretation as if we are keeping satan at bay.
I think we are keeping sin at bay taking control of society by talking sense and love.
I do not hold satan rules this world, he will exploit this world, but it is God who rules
everything and has never stopped.

God puts in place rulers and ruling is by the very morality God has instituted.

1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except
that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Rom 13

Well... Lol, turn to the back of the Book and see how that all turns out....

Our future has already been written in past tense, we are not in control of anything. The only thing we leave this life with is our integrity, or lack thereof.

Yes Sir and I apologize for my actions, I’m sorry if I accused you and other members of such things.

The point you are making could be interpreted in different ways.
We walk as the Kingdom, and live by its ways. The world will destroy itself the more it gives itself
over to sin, yet it is interesting to see how the arguments are being waged back and forth in our
western society. At present the issues for longevity of life, medical care, a lack of war, has never been
like this before in our known history. How we handle this has yet to be worked out, but there is always
hope in Jesus and His love.

Things will change if our technology fails, and the problems become unsolvable. What is staggering in
our life time we have seen development of intensive farming, mass food distribution, medical support
and advances so most major health issues are being addressed, we have good housing, wars are diminishing,
finance and support is growing, countries are working together to bring financial stability, factory production
is international, climate change is being addressed world-wide. I have yet to see revelations play out, but
every year some new nutter claims its a coming.

So miss application of scripture definately does not help.

Thank you
