The reason is that Satan also was not to understand that the messiah after being killed would rise again on the third day.
The reason is that Satan also was not to understand that the messiah after being killed would rise again on the third day.
Luke 18:33 And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
Satan thought by killing the King of the Kingdom of God, he could avoid the destruction of his own kingdom that was impacting the nations and the affairs of man. And also Satan didn't comprehend that Jesus's death on the cross would free man from the power of sin that had over man to be eternally separated from God.
If you review again the opening of 1Corinthians1-2, Paul is saying about the cross being foolishness to
to them who perish (1Corinthians1:18). And how God had made foolish the wisdom of this world (1Corinthians1:20).
1Corinthians2:
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
So it was intentionally kept secret the understanding of how the plan of Salvation would be carried out.
In Daniel 9, it prophesies about the coming of the messiah, and his being cutoff. But it does not mention the messiah coming back to life. That omission was done in part to keep Satan in the dark.
Knowing that Satan was trying to preserve his own kingdom in his part to have Jesus put to death, gives further understanding to Revelation when the 7th trumpet sounds, the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of God and His Christ, in Revelation 11:15 what it implicates.
It is at that point that God begins dismantling Satan's mystical kingdom called Babylon the Great, starting by crashing it down to earth from the heavenlies (the second heaven), and then dismantling it piece by piece - until it is completely destroyed at Jesus's Second Coming.
Jesus disagrees with you, from the Scripture and other evidence that I've cited and presented.
Thank you for the replies and discussion.
Based on what?Jesus resurrection from the dead was not a mystery to Satan.
The Jesus of the Bible doesn't disagree with HIS Own Word's that I posted, and you ignored. Your religious philosophy disagrees with me, the Jesus of the Bible is clear that HIS People are to wait, with Patience, for a Prophesied event which has yet to be fulfilled.
I am tasked with believing HIM and warned of the religious philosophies of men. I hope you might consider.
Go ahead and give us your full list for us to work with. And inform us of who you believe are "His people" that are to be waiting.The Law and Prophets Prophesy of HIS Second Coming. The NT just reminds us that these Prophesies have not yet been fulfilled. Feast of Trumpets is one such shadow of things yet to come.

You can read the Holy Scriptures for yourself. Only be careful not to just omit the scriptures which doesn't fit your religious philosophy, like the Mainstream Preachers of Jesus time did. It cost them there salvation.
Remember what Paul teaches.
Rom. 11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
It's all about the path we walk, as Paul tells us.
Rom. 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (For we know the Law of God is Spiritual)
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
When you find out, and then believe who the Bible says is the Spirit of Life that was in Christ Jesus, then you will know what Law Paul is speaking about. AS he says;
Rom. 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
THEREFORE!!!!!
Rom.. 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
I have....but im not asking you about what the Bible says....I'm asking about your interpretation.You can read the Holy Scriptures for yourself.

Based on what?
When Jesus was tempted by Satan in the wilderness, one of the things Satan tried to do was to get Jesus to kill himself by jumping off of a high place.
Since the bible in Daniel 12:2 speaks of the resurrection of the dead, it there for everyone to know God's power.The point of that temptation is like Eve, once Jesus do that, he would have tested God, and that would be a sin.
Do you really think Satan do not think God has the power to raise his Son from the dead?
Since the bible in Daniel 12:2 speaks of the resurrection of the dead, it there for everyone to know God's power.
However, if you look at Daniel 9, it speaks about the messiah cutoff. But does not speak about the resurrection of the messiah three days later in Daniel 9.
The question to you is - Satan's intent was to have the messiah killed, proved so by Satan entering Judas to betray Jesus to hand him over to them who wanted Jesus put to death, to what end would it have been Satan's motivation, if not preservation of his own kingdom?
You are overlooking that Jesus sent the disciples out to preach the Kingdom of God was at hand. And Jesus Himself went at lengths to preach about the Kingdom of God. Which would mean the demise of Satan's kingdom.Satan was fairly confident that Israel as a nation would reject their Messiah, even after his resurrection. He knew how stubborn they were ever, since the OT.
Thus he was confident that Israel would join the rest of us gentiles, who already excluded from the covenant of God since the tower of Babel.
The sum total is that Satan expected the whole world to be rejected by God.
But what took him by surprise was the mystery that was hidden in God since the foundation of the world (Ephesians 3:9).
As Paul would reveal clearly in Romans 11:11, thru Israel the nation fall, now the entire gentile world would have a chance to be reconciled with God and be saved thru that fall.
That was the mystery of Christ that Paul took great pains to explain to us, from Romans to Philemon.

The motivation for Satan to have the king of the Kingdom of God killed - was preservation of his own kingdom.
But Satan had a direct hand in the killing of the messiah. He was not just an onlooker. That the pharisees were intent on killing Jesus, Jesus referred to Satan in John 8:44.I was not. As I said, Satan knew the stubbornness of Israel, after all, he witnessed how Israel kept rejecting God's covenant during the OT, leading to the kingdom split after Solomon.
So he could easily tell Israel would reject Jesus as their Messiah and promised King. Once they reject, the Kingdom of God would not come to Earth, as promised.
But Satan had a direct hand in the killing of the messiah. He was not just an onlooker. That the pharisees were intent on killing Jesus, Jesus referred to Satan in John 8:44.
the Cross provided a way for all the gentile nations to be reconciled with God, thru the fall of Israel.
I have....but im not asking you about what the Bible says....I'm asking about your interpretation.
I'm specifically asking for biblical support of this assertion:
......which amounts to nothing more than just "words of religious men" which you've advised against just believing without proof or confirmation from the Bible. IOW....I'm following your advice in asking for biblical support.
