He is what the Bible says he is - a fallen angel that has turned against God and is now the source of evilness in the world today. I believe that he has a legion of demons at his command that are evil spirits that can be possessed by people.
I think all true. The question is,... ethereal spirit physical entity? I have the same question regards all these creatures...Satan, Molech, Yahweh, Baal, Baphomet. and more "winged serpents". Kind of seems like back in the day at least, folks had to deal with them as physical things. Maybe both? I have long ago concluded that their method of "possession" is mind control. All a bunch of telepathic mind freaks.
They can easily walk around in human form and completely physical. Have experienced this first hand and read many many first hand accounts. They manifest in physical and human form often in satanic rituals as attested to by former occult practitioners who are now Christians. They are definitely not confined to spiritual manifestation.
If you want a mind blowing first hand account by a former occultist who was a bride of Satan, read He Came to set the Captives Free by Dr Rebecca Brown.
They can change to any form they can cause you to believe. I think very real. They have physical needs as well...they are carnivores. I suspect that means they are mortal...long lived but mortal. Mind control. Control of the narrative and perceived reality.
Id like to add that the whole moral of the story of the Bible is that good and evil exsist.
What satanist globalist have done to their sheep is convinced them evil does not exsist. That blinds them from the truth and muddies the waters on what is wrong or right.
Take abortion for example. Or how most leftist I know could never see anything as "evil". The government would never hurt them. Why would they do that? A tranny would never hurt a child, why would they do that?
They have no concept of evil. Thus they blindly let evil in.
Satans greatest trick is to convince people that he does not exsist.
It's hard to sell communism when you believe man is inherently evil. You have to believe man is not selfish and is willing to give up his own comfort for "the greater good." Problem is we are all sinners who can only be saved through the blood of Jesus Christ. We need a Savior.
First of all, I wish to make it clear YHWH is God and is not a "winged serpent". Not sure where you're getting that idea from.
I'm going to quote from Hebraic-Roots version Bible because it uses some of the Hebrew terms instead.
Genesis 6:1-4 (Hebraic-Roots Version)
1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and
daughters were born unto them,
2 That the sons of Elohim saw the daughters of men, that they were fair. And they took them wives, whomsoever they chose.
3 And YHWH said: My Spirit shall not abide in man forever. For that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.
4 The N’filim were on the earth in those days and also after that, when the sons of Elohim came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. The same were the mighty men that were of old--the men of renown.
In the King James version, verse 2 mentions "the sons of God" instead of the sons of Elohim and verse 4 refers to "the giants" instead of the N’filim (Nephilim).
According to Genesis 6, the sons of Elohim (angels) were taking human women AKA the daughters of men and impregnating them. These women were giving birth to half angel/half human hybrids known as the N’filim or Nephilim.
Many of the Nephilim were destroyed in the Great Flood, but after the Flood, they reemerged in the land of Canaan. After their physical bodies were destroyed, their angel spirits survived. Those who study the paranormal today from a secular perspective refer to these entities as ghosts and poltergeists. In times past, they were referred to as demons.
These demonic spirits can possess those who commit and do not repent of their sins.
Once you understand these truths, the myths about the Old Testament YHWH dissolve. You realize YHWH waited until only 8 pure-bloods survived before He destroyed the planet with the Great Flood and ordered the Israelites to wipe out the genetic abominations known as the Nephilim, not fellow human beings. Satan populated the Promised Land with them as part of his plans to defeat God and prevent Him from keeping his promises. If Satan had destroyed all pure blood DNA, which was his goal, it would have been impossible for God to send the Messiah in human form as promised to Adam.
Satan's entire goal is to make God out to be a liar.
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
1 John 4:1
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
To add to MilitaryJustice's point, Satan is indeed a fallen angel. Like all angels, this means that Satan and his demons are primarily spiritual beings. While there are many anecdotes of Satan/demons taking physical form, the Bible doesn't confirm this ability, though it does speak of angels taking on the appearance of humans. The only spiritual being who has definitively taken physical human form is Jesus Christ.
In your view is Satan a spirit?...an idea?...an actual physical being?

Very good point.
So many on the Left do think that evil doesn't exist.
To them everything is "accepted" and nothing should be thought of as "wrong" or "evil".
