Revelation: 6. Christ the Heir of All Things.

A eight year old kid makes a declaration to his friend. “I’m going to ride my bike all over town. I’m going to learn to pop wheelies and I will be the coolest kid ever.”
Did this mean he had a bike already?
No. He actually wanted one for his birthday.
But someone listening to that conversation may have incorrectly assumed that he already had a bike. But the truth was that he did not have one yet. And his father wasn’t planning on giving him one.
Thus the kid was not telling the truth but a hope he had. God does NOT write incorrectly.

I can't believe that out of those chopped up verses, you gleaned that satan had an actual throne instead of realizing that God is telling us the condition of the heart of satan, even after He qualified it with "you have said in your heart". satan's entire MO are delusions of grandeur and lies, and I'm a bit bothered that you take his word for it.
 
You should start believing in the Father of Lies more, Andi. He tells the truth! I mean those two things don't contradict one another or anything... *maisey*
I mean wow. I keep coming back to this thread because it really bothers me. I just can’t figure out why Marilyn is so dead set on defending Satan’s throne and kingship.
Marilyn if you are well meaning, certainly you can understand why you would get some pushback on this. But you keep digging your heels in. I find that interesting.
 
Also, your testimony didn't once mention Christ. I saw Anglicans, apostles, presidents, pianos, and notes. There was something about New Zealand and Billy Graham even made an appearance. It was Christ that didn't get a mention. That's at least interesting. I'm truly not accusing, just noting the fact that Christ and the redemptive Gospel was left out of it. But do please, tell us more about all the truths satan bleated and bayed about in the presence of God. If this seems personal, it may be. I'm not too patient with types like you. I admire Adrian, Trench, et al that have that seasoned patience. I'm still working on it and I understand if my messages need to be removed for the sake of the forum.

Yeah, I'm usually a pretty chill guy. It's hard to get me heated, but this kind of stuff ranks way up on the shortlist of things that can do it. Speaking so confidently and authoritative about something so fringe and outrageous in the context of Christendom is already starting out on the wrong foot. It has so often led so many down the path straight to death. I really can't sympathize or even empathize with it at all.

Taking satan's word for stuff is next level. I've not seen that too often. I see a lot of God told me this or God said that, but a Christian taking Satan's inner dialogue and delusion at face value might be brand new to me. I'm not sure. Someone may have said it somewhere, but I can't recall at this moment.

Yes blasphemy tends to bother me too.😆
