Is Satan being present in many places at once Biblical?

[Politesse]

Also like I said in my first post apparently most Christians don't even believe that Satan is a living being but is just a symbol of evil.

In which case your argument makes little sense at all. Why would a symbol of evil be limited to being present in only one person at a time? Symbols are the common province of anyone who perceives and uses them.

Those who believe that Satan is just a symbol of evil believe that Satan isn't a living being. I don't think a non-living being is capable of what Joyce Meyer talks about. Unless he is an AI that isn't technically alive.

Every symbol has referents. What are Satan's?

Apparently Satan was an angel.

Now we're discussing medieval fanfiction?

I'm questioning whether Joyce Meyer's books are Biblical. If her statement about Satan being an angel isn't Biblical then her other statements would be even less Biblical.

Joyce Meyer is a clueless hack, that much would be difficult to dispute.

This you would expect to find "posessing" all people, no?

Joyce Meyer is a clueless hack...

She is not the topic of the thread.

It might be how you do critical thinking, but your calling her "a clueless hack" doesn't help me decide whether satan being present in many places at once is or is not biblical.

I mentioned this fact only because she was being presented as an authority. As she has no credentials to speak of, I am unlikely to accept her as one.

This 'fact'?
WOW.
You're doubling down on your ad hom festival.

It is written that God creates evil.

Actually she is. She is a lot of what the original post is about and the only example of what the title is about is Joyce Meyer's books.

In a similar way to what atheists might believe about evil "possessing" people.

My apologies.

The thread topic confused me ..."is satan being present in many places at once Biblical?"

I didn't realise you wanted to talk about Joyce Myer.

Carry on .

Well I did quote a lot from her book and I did thank you for your tweet to her.....

I mistakenly thought we were looking for her supposed scriptural basis for satan's omnipresence.

I'm not interested in discussing her personally.

So then I guess there are relevant Bible verses and passages.... though I think there is no scriptural basis for this.

I'm not interested in discussing her personally.

Well Joyce Meyer is the reason behind the topic. She is very popular and has a net worth of about $8 million:

Joyce Meyer Net Worth | TheRichest

TheRichest covers the wealth, net worth, and the luxurious lifestyles of the richest people in the world.

www.therichest.com

So it is a topic relevant to a lot of Christians rather than just being a thought experiment without much relevance to Christians.

Joyce Meyer is the reason behind the topic.

The forum heading - "Religious Texts".
The thread title - Is satan being present in many places at once Biblical?

...so you can see why I didn't realise that Joyce Meyer's income or popularity was the 'main reason' you started the thread.

But thats OK. Carry on.
You and Politesse are doing fine.

Your first post was "I'd like to see the quote". Were you talking about the Bible or Joyce Meyer? Then you shared your tweet to Joyce Meyer. You don't seem to have talked about how Biblical this is.... though I did talk about Bible passages such as the Garden of Eden, Job, and Jesus' temptation.

Anyway, I don't want to derail your Joyce Meyer thread.
