THE TRUTH ABOUT SATAN

Over years, people have continued to live in fear of 'Satan', great men and women not exempting. They have been in misery, afflicted and puzzled, living in falsity and deceit for too long a time having denied the truth.

"And you shall know the truth and
the truth shall make you free"
—John 8:32

It is pertinent for you to know that God did not create Satan as is so believed. Satan is the outcome of man's wild imaginations. Man is creative and it is confirmed in the Holy Book that evil breeds the human heart.

"And God saw that the
wickedness of man was great in
the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of
his heart was only evil
continually"
—Genesis 6:5

Clearly, from the scripture, it is evident that man employs ways of doing evil in his heart and many atimes put this wicked thoughts in action therefore described as a devil. Devil which is synonymous with Satan means someone who does evil (wicked deeds) or devices way to do evil.

"The myth about Satan is old age.
It does not matter how long a
myth has existed it still remains
a myth. Now is the time to dispel
the satanic myth or misery.
There is no myth that can
withstand the truth and there is
no mystery the truth cannot
explain"
—Apostle John Okoriko

I envisage on exposing the hidden truth about Satan and bring to the understanding of all that man is responsible for all problems and misfortunes that befalls anyone.

In the words of Apostle John
Okoriko:
"Do not be tempted to hold unto
old fables and resist the truth.
Rather, come let us reason
together and get in tune with
divine revelation.
When Satan is un-masked,you will
surely discover and agree that
Every Satan Has a Human Face"

"Satan" is not a name, but just an ordinary title which describes an attitude, role which anybody or anything executes.
Satan_ a title just as doctor, president, teacher, lawyer, nurse, engineer e.t.c. A teacher is called a teacher because he/she plays that role, the same goes for Satan. Anybody can make him/herself Satan by behaving as one.
Satan is an adversary. Someone who stands against God's will.
An instance is seen when Peter in the scriptures rebuked the revelation of Jesus Christ to his disciples and was seen acting as an adversary.

"From that time forth began
Jesus to shew unto his disciples,
how that he must go into
Jerusalem, and suffer many
things of the elders and chief
priests and scribes, and be killed
and be raised again the third day.
Then Peter took him, and began
to rebuke him, saying, Be it far
from thee, Lord: this shall not be
unto thee.
But he turned, and said unto
Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan:
thou art an offence unto me: for
thou savourest not the things that
be of God, but those that be of
men"
—Mattew 16:21-23

Another instance can be seen in Luke 22:3-6 where Judas acted as an adversary by communing with the chief priests and captains on how he might betray Jesus Christ.

It is quite evident to find out that in our world of today, people blame their ill doings on Satan just to escape the penalty.

"Satan was not created by the
LORD and does not exist as a
person. So if any judge or jury
was to accept the plea that Satan
was responsible for the crime,
who would be punished?"
—Apostle John Okoriko

Moreover, it is not recorded in the story of creation that Satan was created. In Genesis 6 The Lord God regretted that he created man and not the other way round.

**So erase your fears
Cleanse your mind
Overcome your greatest
challenges
For behind every act of
evil/problem there are traces of human(s) involved.

BE BLESSED!!
