words I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they
persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching,
they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name,
for they do not know the One who sent me. If I had not come and spoken
to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no
excuse for their sin. He who hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not
done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin.

In the beginning Lucifer (Satan) inferred it would never bow to a mere man
and fell out of God’s grace. Satan and the evil forces have roamed the earth,
always aware that they were to be defeated. Evil tests those who respond to
God’s call, finds a weakness, so they bow and fail to some extent. When evil
tested Jesus, however, the response was perfect. His prophetic words went

within the minds that he [Satan] used. Evil cannot perceive or comprehend
truth or humility to any extent. Deception is found in pride because pride is
paramount receptor for deception. Satan continually addressed Jesus
looking for a human weakness, testing for weakness in those around Him,
but could find none in Jesus—because He was not a mere man!
Destruction is the destiny and final end of Satan; all who are subject to evil
will perish because of it. The final battle ends in spiritual defeat, but with
physical consequences as the son of man fulfills his purpose. In complete
submission and acceptance justice is served. However, Satan will not be not
be completely destroyed in this time, only defeated, head crushed—
Humanity is encouraged to defeat evil from within, thus glorifying the
Father and the Son who are One in purpose.
Satan is damned by the relationship of Jesus and mere man; as the mystery
is revealed, the whole story of human creation is told; mere man, spiritually
empowered by the name of God, as a Holy Spirit, has dominion and
mastery over the deceptive forces of Satan’s evil endeavor. Empowered by,
and with the name of God, perfect justice is served; the door, once locked is
opened. Authority extends from the Father to the Son(s), twice. The Holy
Spirit is the endowment of Divine phenomena twice in time. The first time
