Who Is Ruling The Earth Satan Or God Or Man

[locusts]

IS Satan a ruler of this system or this world - because it is in such a mess and he is using man to destroy himself -- because of HIS selfish desires.
The say Bible at John .14.30 it's giving me the information .???

[allenlondon]

Not another one.

Listen chum, it’s all down to blind chance. Nobody up there, down there, anywhere.

Just do your best, that’s all you can do.

And forget the kiddies’ stories - they’ll only upset you.

With metta,

You think someone rules the whole world ?

OG; "You think someone rules the whole world?"

Well, if I ruled the world, every day would be the first day of spring. Every heart would have a new song to sing. And loads and loads of other stuff.

Virtually all the mayhem in the Bible was done by God so I would say He was in control if anyone was.

[naomi24]

If Satan is the ruler of this world what is his purpose in using man to destroy himself? What's in it for Satan?

[ToraToraTora]

Greta FunBird rules the world!

[Ellipsis]

The earth rules itself. That's not to say it has it all its own way. It's influenced by the sun, etc.

[Mozz71]

Is Satan the ruler of the world? No, just America.

The entire Satan story is nonsense and never made any sense to me, even when I was a Bible believer.

(Revelation 12)
7 Then war broke out 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.

Heaven is supposed to be perfect, and yet there was a war there?
There are countless other planets in the universe but God cast Satan down to a perfect Earth? And then punishes mankind because they were deceived by the talking snake AKA Satan?
If God was all powerful, then why was there a war in heaven in the first place? Why did Michael have to fight? Wasnt God able to simply magic Satan out of existance?
The entire story is absurd to any rational thinking person.

//Ask for your money back//
When I think of the money that I donated in tithes and offerings to the charletans that taught this garbage, thats not a bad idea Theland...

Poor you If you understood Gen 3:15 then you probably understanding all the Bible, but your attiude is not for a christian anyway.

[Canary42]

I understand it's a theodolite that typically rules the earth.

[goodlife]

When in the garden of Eden, the Devil misled Adam and Eve.

Satan accused God of being a bad Ruler. just like you naomi

Satan claimed that God was keeping something good from Adam and Eve. Satan wanted them to believe that he would be a better ruler than Jehovah and that they did not need God.—that where atheism and all the other none christians come about.

What was Satan doing in a 'paradise on Earth'?

[goodlife]

In all the world Jehovah’s Witnesses are not being sanctimonious or self-righteous. Neither are they seeking persecution or martyrdom.

They love and enjoy life and want to keep living in peace.
Therefore they devote themselves to learning Bible principles and living by them. (1 Pet. 3:10, 11) And they also want others to enjoy the fine things that they have found, and to have a hope and a purpose in life. So they call at the homes of the people because they do not want to overlook anyone and thereby fail to offer every person the life-giving message of the “good news. Mat 24:14

I suppose the only good thing about AB becoming increasingly infested by god-botherers is that they might begin to smother the rantings of the white supremacists of the AB Reich.

What was Satan doing in a 'paradise on Earth' goodlife?
Think. Use your brain. Why would God cast Satan onto a perfect paradise (Earth) instead of say Mars?
