9 The coming of the evil man is the work of Satan. He will come in great power with signs that are not true, and wonderful things.
18 We know that any child of God does not do wrong things. The Son of God keeps him safe and the devil cannot touch him.
19 We know that we belong to God and the whole world belongs to the devil.
7 So let God control you. Fight the devil and he will run away from you.
10 The devil who fooled them was thrown into the big fire which burns with dust that chokes people. The animal, and the prophet who is not true, were already in the fire. They will have a very hard time day and night, for ever and ever.
4 The god of this world has covered their minds so they cannot see. They cannot see with their minds the light of the good news of Christ. They cannot see how bright and wonderful Christ is. He is just like God himself.
19 People listen to the message about the kingdom of heaven. If anyone does not understand it, the devil comes along and takes the message out of his heart. That person is like the seed which fell on the road.
38 The field is the world. The good seed means the people who belong to the kingdom. The weeds mean those who belong to the bad one.
39 The bad man who planted the weeds is the devil. The harvest time is the end of this world. The men who cut the harvest are angels.
30 After this I will not talk much with you. The ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me.
8 Keep awake! Watch! Your enemy the devil is walking around like a growling lion. He is looking for someone to catch.
14 I am not surprised. Satan tries to make himself look like an angel of light.
6 Jesus said to him, I am the way. I am the truth. I give life. No one can come to my Father unless I take him there.
2 He and his disciples were eating together. The devil had already put it into Judas heart to give Jesus over to people who hated him. (Judas was the son of Simon Iscariot.)
9 The dragon was thrown down. He was that old snake who is called the devil and Satan. He fools all the people in the world. He was thrown down to earth and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 I heard a loud voice in the sky. It said, Now the time has come for God to save people. He will use his strength. His kingdom will come and his Christ will use his power. The one who says bad things about our brothers to God day and night has been thrown down.
18 I send you to them to open their eyes. Then they will turn from darkness to light. You are to take them out of Satans power and turn them to God, to be forgiven of their wrong ways. Then they will be among those who are made clean and pure by believing in me."
8 Anyone who does what is wrong belongs to the devil. The devil has done what is wrong from the beginning. That is why Gods Son came. He came to stop what the devil does.
44 The bad spirit, the devil, is your real father. You gladly do the wrong things he wants you to do. From the beginning he killed people. He has nothing to do with what is true. His way is to tell lies. He himself is a liar and all lying comes from him.
