Could someone have a personal relationship with god, know that he is real and the almighty and still reject him? [Spirituality & Religion]

@Reverend

What about satan?

@Pikachu what do you mean? Satan is an eternal being that has been with God. We are not.

@Pikachu ahhhh i see what you did there. Its best to see his end. Though it will be different from us being made in Gods image.

@Reverend

What does that have to do with anything? He is a being who knew god personally and still rejected him.
Does satan or does satan not represent an example of someone who knew god personally and still rejected him?

@Pikachu yes you are correct. And his ending basically tells what will happen to those who reject him.

@Pikachu Satan did not reject God but wanted to be like him

@Reverend

Is he given dominion over earth?

@Reverend

If you want to be the same as god, you unavoidably reject his sovereignty. To reject god's sovereignty is to reject god.

@Pikachu Given? No, has for now yes he does until the return of Christ

@Pikachu kind of, and yes you will see him set his throne in Jerusalem claiming to be God. That is what he is will do.

@Reverend

lol that sounds pretty cool.But if god did not give it to him, how does he have it?

@Pikachu He was indeed granted that power from God. It was foretold feom the beginning.
