W7 D 2- Who Or What Is Satan?

“Even God cannot be agreeable hundred percent; you see Satan won’t let Him.”
Satan in the correct theological sense is a traducer. He was at it in the Garden (Gen 3:6) putting a false light over what ought to have been as plain as day. He was an accuser, (and even for a story I find it a masterly stroke to make his actions true to his type) and had he been in legal profession think of what his career profile would be! He would have been highly successful, no doubt about it.
But Satan had a serious problem. Everytime he was allowed to approach the Throne of Grace he didn’t see Him as Isaiah saw Him. Instead he came to reproach him for something or other. It was thus he meddled with the life of Job. He accused God of having bought the fear of God (Job 1:9-10) with all the material wealth He could give. In other words His Majesty was maintained by nothing more than a bribe. Yes an accuser he was.
Tailpiece: Prophet Isaiah had a viewpoint (Isa 6:5 ); so has Satan his.
