Why Satan is Winning the Battle

It's no secret to those of us who call on the name of Jesus Christ that this world is passing away and that Satan is winning the battle but will lose the war in the end. But it is our fault as the church as to why Satan is now winning the battle.

I don't know what religious book you read, but my Holy Bible tells me the following:

"Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God" (2 Corinthians 4:4, NLT).

Angels

We can know that angels were created by God before the foundation of the earth because the Bible tells us so:

"Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone—while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?" (Job 38:4-7, NIV).

Satan was one of the cherished angels of God, but that role didn't suit him well. He wanted to be God. His fall to the earth where he now rules because of pride.

Furthermore, Satan not only wanted to be God, interestingly enough, that is basically what Lucifer (that old serpent) tempted Adam and Eve with in the Garden of Eden! (see Genesis 3:1-5).

Why Satan is winning

The short and not so sweet of it is because self-professed Christians remain silent. Many wish to remain silent lest they tip the apple cart and make enemies. Well, I've got sour news for you, Satan is your enemy and he seeks to destroy you and I.

"Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour" (1 Peter 5:8, NIV).

I'd rather lose every friend I have than remain silent like a weak-kneed pansy. Many of you who call yourselves Christians are full of pride. You choose rather not to lose a friend over winning a soul for Jesus. God is watching you and keeping score. You best get on your knees and repent!

Silence

The silence of the church is allowing Satan to win the battle and destroy souls to take with him to his eternal damnation.

When liberals demand their right to kill the unborn in the womb, the majority remains silent. They don't want to offend anyone. Offend anyway! You don't have to be rude or obnoxious about it, but you can speak the truth in love, right? Right?

Abortion is a polite euphemism for murder. The abortionists (murderers) scream, "Our body, our choice!" But why doesn't that same logic apply to the jab. Irony anyone?

Satan is a liar!

"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies" (John 8:44, NIV).

Why would you choose to join voices with him and lie?

And then the church is silent when the "new science" tells us there are more than two genders. There is not: there is make and female only.

"He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them “Mankind” when they were created" (Genesis 5:2, NIV).

Speak up! Biology proves there are but two sexes. Or were you singing and dancing and texting your bff during biology class and miss that? You should be ashamed of yourselves!

More lies, more silence

Many say that the Church’s teachings are way outdated. Why, just look at how most of the world believes and behaves today. Millions of people can’t be wrong, right? Wrong!

But the church remains silent. They cower behind a false sense of love. Love speaks the truth! Speak up! Have you not read or heard?

"For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light" (2 Corinthians 11:13-15, NIV)).

Parting shots

Let me tell you how it is: stop being weak. If you are a true believer in Christ Jesus you need to speak the truth in love.

And if you have been frightened about losing a friend over the gospel truth, you need to get on your knees right this minute and repent, tell God you are sincerely sorry, and turn from your wicked ways.

And if you can't or are unwilling to do so, then this simply means you are on the wrong team and support the lies of Satan. Therefore, repent or suffer the consequences of your inactions.

I agree 100% with your said points here about satan winning the war cos he's always on the alert seeking to devour and take people away from the truth regarding God and his son jesus. Another reason is that he (satan) is the ruler of this system of things and hence that is the case, then he will continue to win for now as the increase in lawlessness is pilling up by day which is a clear indication that satan is really winning

They say that this world is already hell, the devils are already occupied the earth and currently dominating the people spreading evilness of this world, even churches are already occupied by demons specially those priest that doing bad things and serve un unfairly. I believe in final judgement, maybe devils are winning right now however the day will come that humanity will be judge according to what they did and the devils will be perish forever.

I don't mean to harm your feelings if you're Catholic, but that entire church is corrupt, evil and full of false teachings, especially as it pertains to the way to salvation.

Our world today is getting worst, people are silent when it comes to spreading the word of God (I'm not an exemption but I make sure I have a communication to Him).
