Satan, otherwise known as the Devil, is a very real angelic person. Though he was created holy, he rebelled against God and sin came into God’s universe. Satan tempted man to follow in his rebellion and man fell into sin. Satan is the enemy of God, of all men, and of the church. Much of the evil programs that we see about us are energized by this being. The real battle being fought in the universe is a spiritual one. Satan and his workings will one day be brought to an end when God judges him and cast him into the Lake of Fire forever (Job 1:6-7; Eph. 2:2, 6:11-13; 1 Pet. 5:8, Rev. 20:10).
