The Existence of Satan

We believe in the existence of Satan; who originally was created a holy and perfect being, but through pride and unlawful ambition rebelled against God; thus becoming utterly depraved in character, the great adversary of God and His people, leader of all evil angels and spirits, the deceiver and god of this present world; that his powers are supernaturally great, but strictly limited by the permissive will of God who overrules all his wicked devices for good; that he was defeated and judged at the cross, and therefore his final doom is certain; that we are able to resist and overcome him only in the armor of God and by the blood of the Lamb. Ezek. 28:13-17; Isa. 14:13, 14; I Tim. 3:7; John 8:44; Matt. 4:1-11; Rev. 12:10; Matt. 12:24-26; 25:41; Rev. 12:9; II Cor. 4:4; Job 1:1, 2; Luke 22: 31, 32; John 12:31, 32; John 6:11; Rev. 20:10; Eph. 6:12-18; Rev. 12:11
