Well? He did create everything, right?
Originally posted by lucifershammerWhen Lucifer rebelled he took 1/3 of the angels with him. When these angels lost their holy spirits(holiness). They became evil spirits,or some call them demons. CHRIST dealt with them as evil Spirits. So that is what they should be called. But many have been taught to call the demons. The word demon(s) is not found in the translations of today. But may be found in the early translations of the King James Version and earlier Versions of the Scriptures.
Ok. So?
Originally posted by blindfaith101Actually, New Revised Standard (1989), New International Version (1985) and New American Standard (1995) all use demons (at least in the New Testament). King James uses devils. The Greek word is daimonia, so demons is an appropriate translation.

Originally posted by thesonofsaulno, these being were given these titles when they rebelled along with Lucifer. A lot of the discusion about GOD and satan is not really done righteously.GOD created all things to worship HIM and only HIM. in times past this is what was. All created creatures worrshiped and served THE MOST HIGH GOD.
So God deliberately created beings that would move against him? In short, he created animosity?
Originally posted by blindfaith101So you are saying that God didn't know that this would happen when he created Lucifer and these other offending angels exactly the way he did? Becauae if he knew, he did it on purpose. If he didn't, then God is capable or making mistakes and therefore imperfect. So, which is it?

Originally posted by blindfaith101I do not wish to quarrel with you my friend. My sources are sound. When I refer to the heirarchy of the heavens, I do consider the triune Gods three manifestations to be one and the same being, and as such refer to them as one being.

Originally posted by OmnislashWhat a chance you take. So you say that GOD as other material for us to study, hmm. Well I guess that if they testafy of the full Salvation that comes only through the salvation given by JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD. They would be acceptable. But do they? What are their titles anyway? Do they tesify of GOD'S haterd for sin?

If it's about "omni" traits, here's how it will go.
