The Doctrine of Satan

I. The Existence of Satan
A. Seven Old Testament books and every New Testament writer refer to Satan.
B. Jesus referred to Satan (Mat. 13:39; Luk. 10:18; 11:18).

II. The Personality and Names of Satan
A. Personality – He has intellect (2Co. 11:3), emotions (Rev. 12:17) and will (2Ti. 2:26.
B. Names – He is called Satan, the Devil (slanderer), Lucifer (son of the morning), Beelzebub (Lord of the flies – Mat. 12:24), and Belial (lawless – 2Co. 6:15), the evil one (1Jn. 5:19), the tempter (1Th. 3:5), the prince of this world (Joh. 12:31), the god of this age (2Co. 4:4), the prince of the power of the air (Eph. 2:2), the accuser of the brethren (Rev. 12:10), and angel of light (false light – 2Co. 11:14), a serpent (Rev. 12:9), and a dragon (Rev. 12:3).

III. The Nature of Satan
A. He is a created angelic being. He was created as part of the angelic realm (Eph. 6:11-12; Eze. 24:18) and was the highest in rank of them all (Eze. 28:12-14).
B. He is an enemy of righteousness. He is a murderer (Joh. 8:44), a liar (Joh. 8:44), and accuser (Rev. 12:10) and our adversary (1Pe. 5:8).
C. He is a limited creature. He is limited by God (Job 1:12). He is not God’s equal (1Jn. 4:4). He is not omniscient, omnipotent or infinite in any way. Believers with God’s help can resist him (Jam. 4:7).



IV. The Fall of Satan

…

The Doctrine of Demons

I. The Existence and Nature of Demons
A. Their Creation – God created demons as part of the angelic realm originally (Col. 1:16).
B. Their Fall –
1. The evidence – It is clear that Satan has a following of like beings (“Prince of the demons” – Mat. 12:24; the Devil and his angels – Mat. 25:41). Demons are described throughout the Scriptures (Dan. 10:10-20; Mat. 10:1; Eph. 6:12).
2. The time – At the fall of Satan, many angels followed him in that rebellion (demons are fallen angels). A third of the angelic host seem to have fallen with Satan (Rev. 12:4 – the imagery of Satan as a “dragon” and angels/demons as “stars”).
C. Their Nature –
1. Demons are by nature the same kind of spirit beings as angels. They are personal, intelligent beings.
2. Demons are morally wicked (“unclean spirits” – Mat. 10:1; “evil” – Luk. 7:21; “wickedness/darkness” – Eph. 6:12).
a. They are deceitful (1Ti. 4:1-3; 2Co. 11:13-15).
b. They are immoral (Gen. 6:4; Jude 6, 7).
3. Demons are invisible but also able to appear (Satan – Zec. 3:1; Mat. 4:9. 10; Demons – Rev. 9:7-10; 16:13-16).
4. Demons have great intelligence. They knew Christ’s identity and power (Mar. 1:14, 34; 5:6, 7). They know their own future judgment (Mat. 8:28, 29). They can attempt to predict the future (Act. 16:16). They’re knowledge is not infinite. They learned it through thousands of years of experience and observation.
5. Demons have great strength (Mar. 5:3; Act. 19:16; Rev. 9:1-11).
