I just need some comments/answers to some quotes I have seen about Satan.
We should never underestimate Satan. He is a sly and skillful adversary with many years' experience in dealing with humanity. Though he is a powerful foe, he can be overcome.
Satan answered, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."
but if you are a Christian, neither the devil nor a demon can ever take control of your life.
Does being a Christian IMMEDIATLY warrant this?
No, no. I am not Christian bashing. If you think I am, oh well, I really couldn't be arsed anymore..
He can do nothing in the life of the Christian without God's permission.
Is this not an ignorant statement?

If he has not been properly overcome in thousands of years, why now, and so easily?
Book of Job, when Satan is presenting himself to God:
God said to him, "From where do you come?" (Job 1:7).
Satan answered, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."
Well to my beliefs Satan met God before that. I'm sure you can correct me.but if you are a Christian, neither the devil nor a demon can ever take control of your life.
