Theos-Talk Archives (October 2003 Message tt00158)

Excelent response Dallas, quite conclusive. Satan, as far as I learnt about
it, is a symbol of the distorted human mind which seeks to exploit, to
thrive on the expense of others, is is a state of utter selfishness, of a
heart void of Love. It is a state of living death. Thanks again, Etzion
