Persecution today?

[MatthewG]

Satan/Adversity can come from other people, even our own thoughts, thank you for sharing, @stream.

 

[CC7799]

Satan/Adversity can come from other people, even our own thoughts, thank you for sharing, @stream.

Your right.

Galatians chapter 5

The Spirit is in conflict with the flesh.

You're either led by holy Spirit or Spirit of error.

Adversity lies with the flesh. Its disobedience to God.

Those who are disobedience are following Satan.

Ephesians chapter 2. Prince of the air who works on children of disobedience.

Main factor is reprobates. They won't repent and don't care.

I'm not talking about ignorant Christians who are spiritually dead and love God.

I'm talking about Reprobates.

Evil thoughts come from Reprobates.
Like plotting evil
Habitual lying
Manipulation
Won't accept accountability for thier actions.

Satan is factor, and there are layers.

Christian with Holy Spirit won't go against God.

Gossip and slander are examples.

Adversity lies with Satan and Reprobates.

Unclean Spirit enters those who willingly allow it.

Reprobates will follow Satan into lake of fire on judgement Day.

Take care.

 

[MatthewG]

I believe that Christians, can walk away from God, as much as Satan walked away from Yahavah, and represented everything against him.

Many say, there is no way ! Angels did it, and the elect was sus. to being deceived.
