Things in the Bible not really in the Bible...and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

Satan has powers to do whatever he wants to people.

Job 1:9-12  –  Job 2:10a  –  Job 42:5  –  Genesis 15:1-20  –  Genesis 21:5  –  Genesis 22  –  Galatians 3:6-9  –  Jeremiah 27:6  –  Jeremiah 43:10  – Jeremiah 50:1 – 51:14

Oops of the Day 

No! 

He is not equal to God in any way – Job 1:6
He cannot tempt anyone without God’s permission – Job 1:12; I Corinthians 10:13
He cannot manipulate nature without God’s permission – Job 1:12, 16, 19
He cannot afflict harm on anyone’s body without God’s permission – Job 2:2-6
He does not know what we dream – Daniel 2:27-28

Satan is a coward – James 4:7

He cannot read our minds – Isaiah 40:28; I Kings 8:39;
Only God can read our minds – Psalm 94:11; Matthew 9:4
God has placed a fence around each believer to protect them from Satan. – Job 1:10; I John 5:18

God gives him permission and uses him to test people (like lifting spiritual weights) and develop spiritual muscles in his people. Job was strong. He ended up being stronger. Same with Abraham who lived close to the same time as Job.

God gives Satan’s followers permission to punish God’s followers, then punishes the punishers.
