Fact.. everything Satan had when he fell he still has. Just no authority over believers. The word HAS reached all most if not all the world. That gate you call narrow...

For me when I read that I cant see where He means or is talking about every lasting life. I do read LIFE.. few that find it..in this life. That road for a fact we KNOW is narrow. And as we look out in to the world WIDE is that gate that leads to destruction.

Satan show'd Christ all the wonders in a moments time..that takes power. Satan said..this is mine it was handed/given to me and I can give to to whom ever I want. One angel killed how many hundreds of thousands? "That night the angel of the LORD went out and put to death a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the Assyrian camp"

We see NATIONS today that do not follow Christ. They are ruled by powers in high places. Did not Gab have to call on Micheal to come help in Daniel 10 I believe? With out CHRIST we are nothing to them.. no power no ..nothing. ONLY with Christ and HIS WAY HIS RULES going when HE says.

What so many do not see is.. the Father is doing more GOOD then ALL the evil in this world. We walk not by flesh but SPIRIT. Now if you look with flesh that's all you will see and it would LOOK as if evil is wining or ever where. It is not. The Father has Never lost.. never will. He has not come for us because one we are not ready and to win more back to Him. He is never in a hurry..never rushes. ONE of you can put 10k to flight.. 2 can put what 10k to flight.. we don't USE the POWER with in us.. that NAME above EVERY name...not ONE or ALL demons fallen angels can stand against just ONE in Christ. Its CHRIST IN YOU..thats grater then he thats in the world.. AWESOME time to be alive.. best time since God made this earth

Satan is 'anti' just about everything Holy including God's power. Satan has a false divine power ie; anti-divine power. Satan has his own natural powers that God created him to have and the anti-divine powers that are all lies. Ever notice the anti definitions of freedom, tolerance. discrimination, etc? They are expressions of the opposites but pose well in place of the truth.

The power of Satan is already broken by the Son, who “saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven” (Luke 10:18; Cyril of Alex., Comm. on Luke, Hom. 64). The strong man Satan is being bound. The success of the seventy-two gospel witnesses over the demons was taken as evidence of their impending demise (Luke 10:17). Satan has become the “creditor” for human sin, who became wounded by his own bite, whose power is renounced in baptism (Ambrose, Letters 41.7).

The whole world is deceived.

Athiesm, Islam, New Age Occult religions, cults.

Christians are only 33% of this world. The gate is really that narrow.

Do you think Satan has too much power? People don't know they are deceived.

Jesus Christ is the only way, he is the only intercessor.
I hate to ruin this thread but it does seem like Satan has too much power. Everywhere I look, the devil prevails when there's a battle of good vs. evil. If God is all powerful, it's not looking that way.

Finally, an honest person. Saying Satan has no control is just blatantly false. He controls every one who doesn't have the Spirit of God, to one degree or another.

None was not an answer so I said Christian. They asked, "Catholic or Protestant?" I said protestant because grandma was a Baptist. In truth I was as lost as a goose and had little idea of what the gospel was about. It was 20 years later I believed. It was at that time that Satan lost his grip on me.
That is a neat story. Neat that your mind knew what you are, knew where you came from and where you were destined to; even though your heart was not there yet.

Don't feel so bad. It was much worse before.

Genesis 6:1 Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence. 12 God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.​

But it will get worse when Satan is let loose.
If God is all powerful, it's not looking that way.
The state of this world has nothing to do with God's power.
It is all due to the state of people's hearts.
