Hmmmm! Good Question, Why would Satan want to sit, on the chair of St. Peter, in Rome, a Catholic Church?

There are Catholic Prophesies regarding this. We hear it from Many Protestants as well, that satan will sit or is now sitting on the Chair of St. Peter.

Hmmmm! A Better Question, for many Protestants to ask themselves, why isn't there any prophesies re: satan wanting to sit any of their Protestant churches.

Has it ever occurred to you, that it could be that Satan, wants to sit in what belongs to Jesus Christ, a Church founded by Jesus Christ on Rock, over 2000 years ago and counting aka Catholic Church??? Remember satan entered Judas the Betrayer an Apostles, Now, is Jesus Christ a Bad Messiah not a good Teacher? NO! Nor is it a bad Church when satan wants to sit in it or will sit in it at the end times. As a Catholic, in the Catholic Church, am I happy to know that their are Catholic Prophesies that satan will sit in the Catholic Church? NO! However, it tells me I am in RIGHT and only CHURCH! And as it states in:
Matthew 16: 18And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

NOTE: Jesus Christ never stated that Satan will not attack it or not sit on the chair of St. PETER. However Attack it satan will but satan will not prevail over it. Amen


Could it be that satan does not want to sit in the Protestant churches because they came out of the Catholic Church??? As it states in 1 John 2:19 below:


1john 2:19 They went out from us, but they were not of us. For if they had been of us, they would no doubt have remained with us; but that they may be manifest, that they are not all of us. (aka Protestant Reformation?) Those who went out where they that did not believe that we must eat and drink the Lords Body and Blood aka "Eucharist" as it states in:
John 6:52The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat? 60Many therefore of his disciples, hearing it, said: This saying is hard, and who can hear it? 66After this many of his disciples went back; and walked no more with him. (Does this sound familiar to you, is this what you are doing walking away)?

Find the only Church that satan wants to sit in, and there you find the Church Founded on Rock, that Christ built. Satan will not waste his limited time, in any other church founded in the 15th century by a man and any other man made church thereafter because, as Scripture states The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy... (what is of God's)

Tell me, why there is no prophesy that satan wants to sit in any Protestant Church?

I'm not sure I agree with your detective work. Note that by responding I'm not meaning to condemn anyone or anything, but just, reply out of intellectual contemplation. For instance, if someone could sit in an ruler's office in the nations, he'd naturally go for America. Why? Because America is the original and true nation? No, but because he could exercise the most power from that position. It could also be that this being would sit in the seat of the institute of that which is most like him; and from there sway power over the most followers. He could do it to give the appearance of the seat of authority allowing him to unify the churches under one institution. It could be that he built it and wants to ride in his own vehicle. If Rome is the seat of Babylon (and, again, not saying that it is, but simply to hypothesize) then it would be apt for the king of Babylon to be seated in his own kingdom. There are many ulterior reasons.

Hyperspace, what makes you think satan is not sitting in America? In America theres abortion, men could marry men, woman could marry woman, transgender in the new norm, etc... etc...

Hyperspace, Satan Most powerful position is to destroy the truth He want to destroy what is of God, His Church founded on Rock, His People. The rest satan he already has, why bother himself with what he has in his pocket.

Our understandings of "satan" are really different. I think satan is sitting all over the place; not restricted by nation or religion. Every institution and people have their problems. I seem to recall some bitter things being reported concerning the Catholic church. Again, I'm not meaning to, condemn anyone; but, we can blanket anything with generalizations. You asked why satan would want to sit in Rome, I replied with some reasons: it could be that this would happen, and it could be because it's the true church: but I don't think your line of reasoning is reasonable or sufficient to warrant your conclusion.

I disagree that satan "has" anyone. All things belong to God, and are subject to God alone: Ezekiel 18:4, 1 Peter 3:22 No being can do anything of his own power: where Christ says "Sit" that is where satan sits.

You are reading that verse incorrectly. Gates are defensive, not offensive.

By your "logic" Judas was the greatest apostle because he was the one that Satan went into.

Jesus told us that the Gates of Hell would not prevail against His Church. He also told Peter that Satan desired to sift the apostles as wheat from chaff, but He prayed that Peter's faith wouldn't fail. Satan desires greatly to indwell the occupier of the Chair of Peter.

Again, I'm neither agreeing or disagreeing with your teaching, but addressing the original question by proposing alternate reasoning as to why this would be desired.

His Church is not the RCC. Even official RCC doctrine states the Church to be the larger Church of all baptized believers.

The Chair of Peter is not established from God. The very shadow of Peter healed many. The current Pope blasphemes against the first commandment with his statement that many of different faiths are seeking God or meeting God in different ways.

I'm curious about these so called prophecies about Satan sitting on the Chair of Peter. I've never heard of them. Perhaps someone could enlighten me?
Again, there is no "Chair of Peter". The prophecy used to make the claim that Satan presides over a fallen church is in Rev 17. The specific reference is to the city of 7 hills, taken to be Rome, which does have 7 hills. Understand that this prophecy labels the "Chairperson" to be Babylon and the prostitute that sits there. People read into this to be the Pope.

I have never heard until now that there are "Catholic Prophesies" about Satan sitting on the chair of St Peter, so naturally I am a little curious. I would think that such a prophecy would be more than a little disturbing for your average Catholic.

Jesus writes to the Angel in Pergamos where Satan's seat is Rev 12:2

They have a chair there too
I believe it looks something like this.

Now it all makes sense.
This is really the chair "of Peer" not "PeTer"
I totally misunderstood.
Note that when a king uses his "PeTer", he does it standing, so a "chair of Peter" is an oxymoron.

If I had said that the RCC was the one true Church, you might have something. I said the Catholic Church is His Church. "c'atholic is the call, 'C'atholic is the response. The Catholic Church IS the one Church Christ instituted. There is, to this day, only one True Church.

In what way is that blaspheming?

Go back and read the first 4 sentences of the OP. Next go back and read what you wrote in response to the church in Rome that has the "Chair of Peter". The OP presents a most juvenile argument against the Protestant churches vs. the Catholic Church. When the OP refers to the Catholic Church that has the chair of Peter in Rome, it is a reference to the RCC, not the often ambiguously used "Catholic Church". Now your response did not say as you claim "The Catholic Church is His Church". It just said His Church with the context of Rome, Chair of Peter and "Not Protestant". Now you toy, claiming a different meaning.
In what way is that blaspheming?
Because Buddhists and Muslims do not worship or seek God. They worships false gods and this makes God not happy. When the Pope, who claims to be Christian, promotes a narrative that those that worship false gods are seeking God, then he is blaspheming against the true God and the first commandment.
