Concerning Satan:

Isaiah 14:12-16
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;



Obviously, Satan has deceived himself on some level through his own pride. That is something every man on earth should be able to understand.

Ezekiel 28:13-19 is another key passage about Satan.

Dude!

Humbly ask him (pray) to reveal his creation and eternal truths to you and you'll be amazed...also, I recommend you read the Book of John if you never have. It's an interesting read and not as intense as Revelation.

i watch the river dance

The ocean is my favorite spot to meditate and praise Him for creation. There's something about the sound and rhythm of the waves, the ocean breeze, the saltwater smell that just relaxes and calms me. Looking out and seeing nothing but water to the horizon and realizing that my spot of beach is just a speck on the earth is just amazing. Walking in the surf and looking for shells and other creatures is pure joy for me. Probably boring for some but that's ok. Each to his own.

Lush, it was brought to my attention that my post might be seen as a slight or attack against you in some manner. My apologies if that was the how it came off, my actual intention was to show how blatant the bible is in showing God's plan from Genesis through Revelation, not point a finger at anyone or attack them on any level.

I deleted the first sentence in my post, thinking that must have been the culprit.

God bless my friend.
