¿Quién es el diablo?

El diablo es Satanás, el enemigo de Dios. Diablo es una palabra que significa “mentiroso” o

“enemigo”. Otro nombre para el diablo es “Satanás”. Dios creó a Satanás como su mejor ángel. Pero

Satanás quiso ser como Dios. Así que Dios echo a Satanás fuera del cielo, junto con los ángeles que

siguieron a Satanás (lee Isaías 14:12-13). Todos esos ángeles malos son llamados demonios.

Satanás trata que la gente este de su lado desobedeciendo y deshonrando a Dios. El engaño a la

primera mujer, Eva, para que comiera la fruta prohibida, trayendo pecado y muerte dentro del

mundo. Pero Dios le prometió a Eva que un día enviaría a un salvador al mundo. Este Salvador sería el

propio hijo de Dios, Jesús, quién vivió una vida perfecta, a pesar de que el diablo lo tentó para que

cayera en pecado (Mateo 4:1-11). Jesús murió para pagar el castigo de los pecadores que confían en

Él.

Dios es mucho más poderoso que Satanás, y un día Dios va a castigar a Satanás enviándolo al infierno

para siempre. Aquellos que no han confiado en el único camino para llegar al cielo- Cristo Jesús -

también tienen que ir al infierno porque son pecadores. No estés del lado de Satanás. Confía y

obedece a Jesús!

Versículos Clave:

”en los cuales el dios de este mundo ha cegado el entendimiento (la mente) de los incrédulos, para que no vean el resplandor del evangelio de la gloria de Cristo, que es la imagen de Dios” (2 Corintios 4:4).

”El que practica el pecado es del diablo, porque el diablo ha pecado desde el principio. El Hijo de Dios se manifestó con este propósito: para destruir las obras del diablo” (1 Juan 3:8).

”Ustedes son de su padre el diablo y quieren hacer los deseos de su padre. El fue un asesino desde el principio , y no se ha mantenido en la verdad porque no hay verdad en él. Cuando habla mentira, habla de su propia naturaleza, porque es mentiroso y el padre de la mentira” (Juan 8:44).

Who wrote the Bible?

God used men to write the Bible and had them say exactly what He wanted.

God gave the Bible to speak to us, so it's called "God's Word." Every word

in the Bible's 66 smaller books comes from God. But He used many people to write

His Word. The books of the Bible were written during hundreds of years by special

people God chose, such as Moses, David, and Paul. God made sure the writers

wrote everything He wanted them to say, without mistakes. He also made sure

that all the writers taught the same message and ideas.

Through the years, God has kept the Bible safe from being changed or

messed up. Every word is true and helpful. The Bible is a precious gift from God. By

reading it, we can know God and His plan for us.

"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteous-

ness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

"When we told you about the powerful coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, we were not telling just clever

stories that someone invented. But we saw the greatness of Jesus with our own eyes. Jesus heard the

voice of God, the Greatest Glory, when he received honor and glory from God the Father. The voice

said, 'This is my Son, whom I love, and I am very pleased with him.' We heard that voice from heaven

while we were with Jesus on the holy mountain. This makes us more sure about the message the

prophets gave. It is good for you to follow closely what they said as you would follow a light shining in a

dark place, until the day begins and the morning star rises in your hearts. Most of all, you must under-

stand this: No prophecy in the Scriptures ever comes from the prophet's own interpretation. No proph-

ecy ever came from what a person wanted to say, but people led by the Holy Spirit spoke words from

God" (2 Peter 1:16-21, NCV).
