What “law” does Satan agree with?
What “law” does Satan agree with?
I should call this post Part Four of “Does God have one unique law?” but instead I chose to make it a “unique” post of its own. Let me ask you, do you believe that there are any laws of God that Satan agrees with? Apparently he is in full agreement with the “law” that forbids godly Christian women from teaching correct biblical doctrine to men.
Let’s see how this works itself out:
Satan loves it when men and women teach false doctrine, but he hates it when anyone teaches correct biblical doctrine because the teaching of correct biblical doctrine thwarts his purpose to infiltrate the church with false doctrine. The teaching of correct biblical doctrine immunizes Christians from error. It also opens their eyes to the deception that lies within satanic doctrines. Does Satan like that? Absolutely not! Satan does not want his lies exposed and he fights long and hard to stop the teaching of true doctrine.
Why Satan loves this “law”
Because Satan hates true doctrine, he of necessity loves it when godly Christian women are forbidden to teach correct biblical doctrine. So here again we have a unique “law” of God. It is the only “law” of God that Satan agrees with. Is this really God’s law that Satan agrees with or is it instead a doctrine of men posing as God’s law? We can see the truth when we put 1 Timothy 2:12 back into its context within the letter it was written in. Paul wrote Timothy a personal letter reminding him that he was left behind in Ephesus to stop the false doctrine and false teachers that were plaguing the church (1 Timothy 1:3). The prohibition of 1 Timothy 2:12 is meant to be understood within the context of false teachers and false doctrine. It cannot be a universal prohibition. Why? Because it would make God the author of a unique “law” that stands in stark contrast to all of God’s other laws. God is not a God of contradiction or of confusion.

Where is the Scripture where Christ says that there must be two witnesses. I’m not imagining it am I? 🙂
The two or three witnesses requirement is stated in Deut 19:15
Deu 19:15 “A single witness shall not rise up against a man on account of any iniquity or any sin which he has committed; on the evidence of two or three witnesses a matter shall be confirmed.
Paul confirmed that this requirement of two or three witnesses is also to establish a matter:
Paul himself confirms a matter by the required two or three witnesses:
2Co 13:1 This is the third time I am coming to you. EVERY FACT IS TO BE CONFIRMED BY THE TESTIMONY OF TWO OR THREE WITNESSES.
2Co 13:2 I have previously said when present the second time, and though now absent I say in advance to those who have sinned in the past and to all the rest as well, that if I come again I will not spare anyone,
Jesus also confirmed that one testimony is not considered true:
Joh 5:31 “If I alone testify about Myself, My testimony is not true.
Joh 5:32 “There is another who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.
The Pharisees questioned Jesus about the things that he was testifying about:
Joh 8:13 So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are testifying about Yourself; Your testimony is not true.”
Jesus answered that his testimony was not alone and therefore qualified by the “two or three witnesses” rule:
Joh 8:17 “Even in your law it has been written that the testimony of two men is true.
Joh 8:18 “I am He who testifies about Myself, and the Father who sent Me testifies about Me.”
So the Father is the second witness about the Son. John was also one who testified about Jesus and Jesus’ works were also considered another testimony:
Joh 5:36 “But the testimony which I have is greater than the testimony of John; for the works which the Father has given Me to accomplish–the very works that I do–testify about Me, that the Father has sent Me.
Joh 5:37 “And the Father who sent Me, He has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His form.
The scriptures are still another testimony of Jesus:
Joh 5:39 “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me;
Paul tells us the importance of this repetition. The repetition is for our safety in Philippians 3:1 –
Php 3:1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things again is no trouble to me, and it is a safeguard for you.
I’ll be a witnesses to Biblical Equally, Cherly makes two and there are many more! We are all born-again an In Christ. This matter is a FACT! (smile)
