The nonsense you spew here demonstrates the reason why people shouldn't be let alone doing free-interpreatation dance of Scripture. "Satan is the God of this world" is blasphemy. Satan is the god of this age/world. It's lowercase god.
that is what happens when you need the Church to interpret Scripture for you.
Who do you think gave you the Bible? It's a liturgical text of the Church Christ established and entrusted to His apostles. Christianity is a living tradition, not a book. It existed and was practiced before Scripture was written down.
What makes you believe you have the correct interpretation?
Of course they did. That's how we got the canon of the Bible. That's the point - the authority lies within the Church as a whole, not within Scripture alone. The Church compiled and gave you the Scripture you're basing your interpretations on. I din't have the correct interpretation - the true historic Church of Christ has it and that's why I follow her.
The Church determined which texts would be included in Scripture - this is a well known fact. No one was lied to. What made it in the Bible is the entirety of the revelation of God to man. This is what Christ taught fulfilling the prophecies of the OT and prophesizing about the future Himself. Christ's teachings only make sense in the context of His Church and its tradition and history.
In whom the God of this world hath blinded the minds of them which beleeue not, lest the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine vnto them.
That is from the Bible that King James authorized. In 1769 it was changed to lower case g god, in the version most people take for King James version today.

The Bible wasn't written in English. Uppercase God picks up the only God there is - the Trinity. Lower case god picks up any other deity of angelic or demonic origin.
Faith.
So what about other people who have faith but have different interpretations that contradict yours?
