God vs Satan

Why is it that the battle between God and Satan is so dramatic. God could snap his fingers and instintly destroy the armies of hell because God can do anything. In revelations the Dragon, aka Satan, has an army fighting the angels of God. Would it be much of a battle because couldn't God create an impenitrable shield around His armies?

O I was also wondering if anyone had some cool facts on St. Michael the Archangel. And is St.Michael the only Saint who wasn't a human? It clearly says Archangel and humans cant become angels because angels were created in the very begining of creation.

M*W: If there were to be a battle between "God" and "Satan," it wouldn't be as dramatic as you imply. Sure, your "God of the Universe" could snap his fingers and instantly destroy the armies of hell, but it just wouldn't happen, because it's not destined to happen! It matters not if St. Michael was an Archangel or not. Nor does it matter if he was human. Angels were nothing but stars. Archangels were nothing but superstars or novas.

Satan, himself, was nothing more than a group of stars who fell from grace in the sky.

Why is it that Christians believe what the stars spell? Why is it that Christians believe there to be a redeemer? Christianity is nothing but the movements of the constellations. There is no redeemer except the truth found in astrology.
 
I respect your opinion, but why are you in a religion forum if all your going to do is badmouth Christianity?
 
Actually look at the old testament and you will see that there isn't much of a battle at all.

Satan translates roughly as 'prosecutor'. He tries to prove the evil/inherent unworthyness/ etc of his quarry. With gods permission, he tests and tempts people. Supposedly there are an assload of devils, each with its own function.

Of course, I don't buy into this stuff. Thank god for my being agnostic... as much as that sentance makes sense.

when you've played games before, dont you think they can get a little dramatic,sometimes.
I can only tell you, it would be like to two girl scratching and pulling hair.
they seem to be best mates, god being the more evil of the two.( as it shows in the bible)
if they existed at all, they could only have wanted humans as playthings.
they would be just two things playing wargames, for FUN.

What if God in His wisdom wanted to demonstrate to the Heavenly host that He is justified to be the One and Only God of All Existence. Not just by His ultimate power( by force). But by demonstrating His Wisdom and Love? And by allowing satan to demonstrate his lack of both?

God does not need to create an impenetrable shield when He can bring back into eternal existence anything or anyone who has died.

Never heard of a man angel??? sounds like something derived from catholic tradition???

Interesting questions, first of all, God could destroy evil directly if He wanted to, but now He hasn't and it has a cause.

Jesus let them take Him, so that the scriptures would come true. He said that He could ask His Father to send a legion of angels to help Him if He wanted to, but then how could the scriptures come true?

Now, it isn't easy to understand why things are the way they are, but they are for a reason.

A part of the reason may be that we have to have faith. We have to trust eachother and God. Everything falls apart otherwise. What is there to hope for if it is allready seen? God in His wisdom hid things for us. If God were to just cut off all evil, then some might die which weren't supposed to, before they were saved. You see? These might not be all fulfilling answers, but just to show that there are reasons that are satisfying to me at least.

Revelation depicts a battle, true, but I don't see any reason for it to be a physical battle rather than a spiritual one.

Saints are pretty much anyone in heaven.

Archangles are angels.

I can't help but laugh at your foolishness, Medicine Woman. You take scripture and make your own truth out of it, then proclaim it as fact. And you ignore most of the Bible, and take bits out of context to make a fantasy world that contradicts the Bible's word. You make it nice and easy into your own little box that you can see, touch, and feel so you can feel better about your surroundings. We foolish humans can't stand not knowing the truth, so Adam took the apple, so he could know. Sadly, it bit him back.

What? If any Christian believes in astrology, I pity them.

My sister-in-law proclaims Christianity, but believes in astrology and crap. And her life bears bitter fruit and her tongue is that of a serpent. Poor, poor, woman. :( I hope she figures it all out sooner than later. All I can do is pray and cry for her.

Im guessing its for the same reason why any atheist does..
xianity,in fact any religion stops the thinking mind!
in xianity questioning is HERESY while in our lives if we are to advance scientificaly,.. questioning is REQUIERED and
debating with theists feels sometimes like talking with brain dead morrons who answer everything with goddidit goddidit goddidit...
and when we ask why you reply back with some nonsense such as
hes beyond our comprehension,etc..

not to mention that your
buybull
is so full of ILLOGICAL,contradictory stories no one in their right mind could possibly take it seriously in this modern age...
