[QUOTE="Visionary1, post: 30791650, member: 682216"] The devil has so misled, deceived, and distorted the Word of God, that even many Christians have subconsciously fallen prey to his devices. But, then again, has that not been his vindictive goal since he was cast out of heaven because of his jealous hearted betrayal of God? You see the devil sought to steal God's pulpit; [B]BUT GOD[/B], fully understanding the contagious nature of wickedness, chose not to subject the rest of Heaven's angels to the devil's plagues, and IMMEDIATELY, kicked that demon out of Heaven.
