He said what?

For the die-hard halloween types, I can remember being raised to shy away from such a pagan holiday/celebration.

At an older age I learned to agree with the protective intent, but here I am in the now.

I've heard so much of "is there a God" yet my concern is who is this devil/Satan/Lucifer that is so popular in this world? I never toyed with the "spirit realm" nor did I ever want to speak to this prince of darkness, but I gotta say that my new-found "opinion" on the unseen makes me question this entity's existence.

It only seems logical for there to be someone with the opposite motives from what we know to be pure and kind and true. People have identified unpure/unjust traits within themselves and work to rid themselves of these wrongs via humility, [self-]sacrifice, and/or asking God (or other spiritual head) to remove them.

I'll be the devil's advocate here, pun intended. Could God be so skilled as to craft documents referencing himself (Bible, Quran, Torah, etc) and yet twist elements of truth leading all who reference these words to miss something important? Could God, who had part in creating all that is with all of each creation's intricacies and abilities, possibly be fallible?

We've blanketly made a God = good ; devil = evil synopsis with nobody ever truly KNOWING what is really the goingz onz of the matter. We just know how we feel; and that becomes our reality.

One day we will KNOW. Can't regret time spent in any particular mindset--right or wrong--since what's known is not 100%.

When you read this, please ask yourself who is behind your responding emotion. The devil has no reason to defend God, would he?

As far as my "salvation" is concerned, I am far more interested in what is happening on this earth in the now. Many blessings to those whose hearts are saddened at hearing it, because I would rather have you in good cheer. Remember that it's not your battle. So be strong and happy.
