Unmasking the "beast"

The title may seem to get your attention, even for a little bit, just a little bit, I know, it may make you curious on what I really mean about this beast. Well, actually the beast that I am talking is Satan Lucifer the devil who is compared to a beast in the bible as he sugar-coated the truth with the opposite. For example, the Almighty Father gave a commandment to Adam and Eve to not eat the fruit in the middle of the garden. It is the tree of good and evil. But then, Satan came to the picture and deceive our first parents. He said to Eve, to eat the fruit. The focus here is not on the fruit that has been eaten, the subject is in the commandment that the Almighty Father has given. That was when the time they have fallen and got out of the Almighty Father's hands. In our old sinful world today, we are suffering because of this deception. We have grown up into knowing what is not right. We have been born with the old teachings and traditions that we have learned from our parents and ancestors. Some and maybe most of them are the teachings of the Anti Christ, the beast, Satan Lucifer the devil. Some of us especially those people who are born in a Christian community. We have believed three gods. We are worshiping idols and statues. We are doing traditions and repetitive prayers. However, may we all think if these things can save us. By the way, how can you know that you have already been saved? Is it by just saying, "I accept Jesus" or is it by confessing to the priest? How can you know that you really do not have the devil in you or the bad spirit as they call them?

I know I don't have the devil in me because I life my life in a righteously. Nobody with a demon inside would care for people and love god as much as I do.

Speaking of the devil, the devil is nothing like how paintings portray them, They are not monsters with horns. They can seduce people to sin because they are actually physically attractive and beautiful. Bible always describe lucifer as "the light star" and someone who is beautiful. so yeah the reason these evil creatures were able to seduce people to sn because they were beautiful. The horned monsters are just portrayals of artists so they can convert pagans. A devil is an evil conniving fallen angel that wanted our demise.
