Satan
SatanSatan
If you take a look at his personality with an open mind,
Satan actually has characteristics of a respectable person.
One of Satan’s characteristics is his evilness; he is the
personification of evil. That isn’t one of his admirable
traits, but it’s what makes Satan who he is. When you hear
the word, Satan, you immediately think evil. In general,
people look at Satan and that is all that runs through their
minds. Evilness is the trademark of Satan’s personality.
Another of Satan’s features is his intelligence. He
usually isn’t noted for this. If you think about it, Satan
had to be reasonably smart to plan a crusade against God.
He also has the intellect enough to trick people and to
transform a person’s personality. That is why when you get
involved with Satan you usually end up losing. A person is
sometimes respected for his intelligence. Many of the
famous people in our past and present are intelligent.
Satan is also a leader. He led the war against God in
heaven, and he is also the leader of hell. You can tell
Satan is a leader when he quotes, “it is better to reign in
hell than to serve in heaven”. Leadership is a respected
quality. Look at Martin Luther King, Jr. He led a rebellion
for black people and today he is respected for that.
Bravery is another one of Satan’s “respectable”
mannerisms. Satan had to have been fairly brave to plan a
battle against God. Even though he was banned from heaven,
he is the leader of hell, and he still plans to get God back
for what he did. A brave person is usually always
recognized in society.
To have pride is a good thing. People or teams that have
pride are the ones that succeed. They need to have the type
of pride that gives esteem and not ego. Satan had pride
mainly in himself and his work. He is proud of all the
things that he does.
Satan is a very ambitious creature. He doesn’t give up
on something once he starts. With God, Satan can’t directly
torment him. So he must use God’s creation of people to
“win”. Satan doesn’t give up easily. The first thing that
he thought when he got to hell was how he could take revenge
of God. Satan’s ambition might become more noticeable in the
world one of these days. The evil just might over power
the good. It all ready happened once, and God had to
extinguish life on earth with a flood. Then He had to start
from scratch. Satan might have “won” once, but God will
keep making that final move, that doesn’t make Satan
victorious.
All of Satan’s qualities, except for evilness,-
intellegance, pride, leadership, bravery, ambition-are
some of the same traits you would find in a well honored
human. So why isn’t Satan respected as highly as God is?
All of Satan’s outlooks are one-sided and to the extreme of
darkness and evil. The one trait that makes Satan, who he
is, is evilness. Since all of his traits are to the extreme
the evil side of him pulls all the other characteristics to
that extreme; hence, you have the “Prince of Darkness”.
