I want to do a study on the character of the Devil.

Why am I focusing on a Satanic personality?

So I can defeat him.

In my Bible, it says that the Devil is "powerful, wicked, cruel, and arrogant." Amongst other characteristics.

I guess it would take extreme arrogance to exalt yourself, "Above everything that is called GOD or that is worshiped."

I actually wrote a joke concerning Satan's personality. It is hilarious but, extremely crass. I can't post here but will send it as a conversation if you wish. But, I warn you, it is crass!

The Bible covers the Devil in detail. If you want to know your adversary and defeat him, look no further than your Bible.
But a lot of the information about, and power given to, the devil is taken from outside the bible. There was a thread about the devil having a monopoly over a wooden board game.......This isnt in the bible....but was firmly believed by many.

Rom 16:19 KJV For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

we have the same authority, the same Holy Spirit that Jesus had when He walked the earth in a flesh body; the devil has been forever defeated - his only weapons are distraction and deception; his only battlefield is in your mind - don't give him an opening by studying him - if you want to defeat the devil, study the One who has already defeated him - Jesus
