Good post Wilie ! and
Thank God satan has an end !!
the Lord Jesus shows us this chapter in Mark 3
in strongs they give discriptive definitions and
satan here is Strong's G4567 -
Satanas used 36 times in the new testament from root word
Of Aramaic origin corresponding to Σατάν (G4566) (
with the definite affix)
used once in 2Cr 12:7messenger of
satan to buffet Paul ..
both have the same descriptive definitions for the name satan .
1)
adversary (one who opposes another in purpose or act), the name given toa) the prince of evil spirits, the inveterate adversary of God and Christ
1) he incites apostasy from God and to sin
2) circumventing men by his wiles
3) the worshippers of idols are said to be under his control
4) by his demons he is able to take possession of men and inflict them with diseases
5) by God's assistance he is overcome
6) on Christ's return from heaven he will be bound with chains for a thousand years, but when the thousand years are finished he will walk the earth in yet greater power, but shortly after will be given over to eternal punishment
b)
a Satan-like man Now I was thrilled when reading this the other day, wow that is awesome !! I personally love using the scriptures they do the testifying to me and we can witness to them , testify to them as being true and very helpful when seeking answers from the Lord and His Holy Spirit
for me this whole gathered verses tell us that when Jesus come to heal us , it is from satans /adversity "hold and control on any mans mind / heart " freeing him/ her to SERVE THE LORD ..
We know Paul spoke of having the law working in his new mind of Christ in Romans 7 and how the law of sin was still working in his members the rest of his mortal body /earth
that helps us to see that when satan is cast out of heaven / heaven opened with the new mind of Christ , how Paul goes on to explain in Romans 8 how death in his body was still working under the law of sin and how satan" still accuses " us through this law of sin in the rest of his members , making the body as good
as DEAD working though faith like Abrahams children ... Paul shows us the effects in his personal struggles
and Here in Mark 3 we can see How Jesus comes and opens the mind freeing us the start of salvation in every one who believes Jesus is the Christ by the Fathers gift of great grace .. Jesus being within us our new minds we can now overcome sin and death because satan has an end
Mar 3:26 And if Satan rise up
against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand,
but has an end. had to look up
END and since the question is
Does Satan believe know about UR? and this goes with the context of the started thread
END
telos Strong's G5056 - telos From a primary tello (
to set out for a definite point or goal)
1) end

Mar 3:2 And they watched him, to see whether he would heal him on the sabbath, so that they might accuse him.
Mar 3:3 And he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Come here."
Mar 3:4 And he said to them,
"Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?" But they were silent. Mar 3:5 And
he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.
Mar 3:6 The Pharisees went out, and immediately held counsel with the Hero'di-ans against him,
how to destroy him.
Mar 3:7 Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed; also from Judea
Mar 3:8 and Jerusalem and Idume'a and from beyond the Jordan and from about Tyre and Sidon a great multitude,
hearing all that he did, came to him. remember it is the Fathers drawing them by this gift of grace to His Son Jesus Christ
Mar 3:9 And he told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they should crush him;
Mar 3:10 for
he had healed many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him.
Mar 3:11 And whenever
the unclean spirits beheld him, they fell down before him and cried out,
"You are the Son of God." Mar 3:12
And he strictly ordered them not to make him known.
Mar 3:13 And he went up on the mountain, and called to him those whom he desired; and they came to him.
Mar 3:14 And
he appointed twelve, to be with him, and to
be sent out to preach notice it was the preaching that would clean the unclean spirits in mankind and the authority/ grace of God that would remove them out of their minds / hearts
Mar 3:15 and
have authority to cast out demons:
Mar 3:16 Simon whom he surnamed Peter;
Mar 3:17 James the son of Zeb'edee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed Bo-aner'ges, that is, sons of thunder;
Mar 3:18 Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean,
Mar 3:19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. Then he went home;
Mar 3:20 and the
crowd came together again, so that they could not even eat. Mar 3:21 And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for people were saying,
"He is beside himself." Mar 3:22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "
He is possessed by Be-el'zebul, and by the prince of demons he casts out the demons." suspicious minds always, always call the things of God from the devil , you ever notice that kind of fear working in so many religious types ?
Mar 3:23 And
he called them to him, and said to them in parables, "How can Satan cast out Satan? Mar 3:24
If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. NOW this is awesome , think about this satan was in the position to

Mar 3:27 But no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man; then indeed he may plunder his house.
Mar 3:28 "Truly, I say to you,
all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; Mar 3:29 but
whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"-- Mar 3:30
for they had said, "He has an unclean spirit." its the religious that doubts Gods authority , that fearful and unbelieving
cannot seem to Let the Lord do His perfect work in them ..
makes you wonder now
