Is the devil real?
FAQs (026)
The devil, or satan, is the ultimate source of the rebellion against God which is the cause of evil and sin in the world.
Jesus took the devil, and his demon followers, seriously. He confronted satan in his temptations and expelled demons from the lives of those they oppressed.
The Bible does not explain fully and clearly who the devil is but it seems he may have been an angel who rebelled against God and was thrown out of heaven. Jesus describes the devil as "the father of all lies" and said that he (Jesus) came to destroy the works of satan.
The Bible makes it quite clear that one day God will subdue the devil and throw him, together with everyone who continues to rebel against God, into hell forever.
