How do you proof the Satan ( devil) exists?

But you see, that's his greatest accomplishment: getting people to believe he doesn't exist. You pretend he doesn't exist at your own peril, just like you pretend God doesn't exist.\n\nIt's harder to believe that neither of them exist, then to believe that God is your creator and that the devil is out to get you.

Satan isn't really one single being in the bible. Like black_hole_gravity said, it means "adversary" and it's more of a title than a name. Although Lucifer still is a villain in christian mythology. He did rebel against god in the story.

Once when I asked for proof of God's existence, I was handed a Bible and told, "Here's all the proof you need."\n\nThe Bible is proof of God?\n\nThat is a very logical and sound argument.  \n\nI know beyond any doubt that there is a mischievous little monkey who's friend is The Man in the Big Yellow Hat.  I KNOW that to be true because I once read the book 'Curious George.'

I wouldn't say that I believe for certain that there's no god and no devil (I'm agnostic), but I most certainly have my doubts about the devil.  I certainly don't believe that there's some guy running around with horns, a tail and a pitchfork making people do bad things; nor do I believe there's some malevolent spirit who gets into people's heads and makes them do bad things.  People do bad things because they're vain and selfish, not because of some evil spirit.  Or at least that's my opinion.

Non-existence can never be proven.  Until evidence is presented for a things existence it's simply irrational to believe in it.

First you should think about if God is what you "think" he is, and then if he is what you imagine he can be, if it's true or not, if it's true, how do you know it's true and if he is not true or not exist can you prove that he is not?\nIf you believe in heaven, then God created the heaven, so how can himself came from heaven!?\n\nso first find out if the God exist or not, then prove it that he is exist or he is not! if you did that then I'm sure by then you will know where he is came from.

If you are asking whether i believe that he exists, then the definite answer is yes, but if your answer is whether i believe in him, then my answer is no. \n\nWhy should i? The bible calls him the father of liars, he also a murderer; (John.8:44) \n\n"You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it."\n\nHe is the chief inventor of lies, even when he tells you its day, be careful, it might just be night. I wouldn't believe him even if he had 10 million dollars and he told me he would give me 10 dollars

In a word: No.\n\nThe devil does not exist, except in some belief systems. The non-existence of a "devil" is where Judaism and Christianity really differ and separate.\n\nStop and think about this for a moment: Judaism does not have a devil. Jesus was a Jew. He was born a Jew. He HAD to be a Jew if he was to fulfil Messianic prophecy. \n\nIf Jesus was a Jew, and Judaism does not have a devil, what's going on here? It's simple: Christianity's ideas have been taken from other Pagan religions that existed before Christianity did. Many other Pagan religions have stories of two opposing deities who fight it out and good triumphs. This storyline is nothing new. Christianity has God and the devil god fighting it out, with good triumphing. (The Christian Bible refers to their devil as "the god of this world" - 2 Corinthians 4:4.)\n\nFurthermore, if the Jewish Bible teaches nothing of a devil and an eternal firey hell, then there's no need for Christian "salvation". This is why Christianity needs a devil - otherwise it becomes pointless. \n\nSome people mistakenly believe that the Jews have a devil because the Jewish Bible (the so-called "Old" Testament) mentions the satan in the book of Job. The satan is NOT the devil. In fact, the satan, the devil, and Lucifer are three completely different entities.\n\nThe story of an angel called Lucifer falling from heaven is completely unbiblical. There is no foundation for it whatsoever. The ONLY reference to "Lucifer" is in Isaiah - there is not one other reference in the entire Bible. The Lucifer in Isaiah was not the devil, and not even an angel. This was an ancient Babylonian king. If you read the entire chapter, you can see that the words are addressed to this king, telling him that he is going to fall from grace.\n\nAn interesting point to note here is that the Bible refers to both Lucifer and Jesus as the "morning star":\n\nRevelation 22:16\n"I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star."\n\nIsaiah 14:12\n"How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn!"\n\nNext, the satan. The satan is an angel who works FOR God. He tests people's faith through temptation and trials. He can only do what God allows or orders. He is not God's rival. He did not create evil. The Bible itself said that God created evil:\n\nIsaiah 45:7\n"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things."\n\nThe verse used in the original text here for "evil" is "ra" - the same word used in verses such as "the tree of knowledge of good and evil" (Genesis 2:9). It does not mean "disaster" or "calamity". It means what it says: evil.\n\nThe satan is much like the character of Slugworth from the original movie Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Slugworth tempts the children and is seen as sinister, but at the end we find out that he was working for Wonka all along, and only following orders. He was doing so to test the children, at Wonka's request. The idea is the same. The satan tests people because that's what God created him to do. The book of Job supports this viewpoint since it shows that the satan can ONLY do what God permits - the satan can't do a thing to Job without God's say-so.\n\nThis leaves us with the idea of "the devil" which is nothing to do with Judaism at all, but an idea common among other Pagan religions at the time.\n\nSo unless you're into Pagan mythology, the answer is no - there is no devil, and no Biblical reason to believe there is.

I don't think there is an actual "devil". I think the "devil" is a just a way for us to apply a bad face to evil acts. I think humans need God as humans have been worshipping dieties for tens of thousands of years and nearly 90% of the world believes in a diety in some form.

You cannot prove to someone God exists, it has to be revealed to them by God himself, therefore, you must pray for them to receive a revelation. You are supposed to live a godly life and let people see God in you through the word of your testimony and through the way you live your life.\nMost people want to argue this question, and in turn, get caught up in the fervor of the argument. If you would just live your life to the best of your ability and live your life as Christ lived his life, keep your prayer life strong, and fast on a regular basis, you will not have to prove God's existence, people who are hungry for his word will come to you and ask you why you live the way you do. At this point you say to them, because I love the lord and I follow his teachings. He is in my heart and in my life. \nPeople notice everything you do. If you are sensitive to the spirit, then let the spirit guide you. Do not get caught up in arguing with others, focus on God and let him guide you. If you do this, then everything else just falls into place.\nA scripture to look at in the Bible is Galatians 1:10-12\n10: For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.\n11: But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.\n12: For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

There is no proof that god exist.\n\nbut any way if god exist, this doesn't mean god created man of his own image, becasue how can something made of bady be god. Any thing that is made of matter is effected by time, so if god is made of matter then there is day that god born. but thats immpossibe. God is not made from any thing, and he is neither good or bad, he is neutral.\nand no one know why did he make man, and also there is no prove that he exist.

Alas, what answers!\nThe devil is real --- his name Heylel --- known as Satan to nearly everyone.  He is not a myth... he physically exists.  He don't want to be openly seen by people... that's why you people think he is a myth.  He is a deceiver... very subtle.\n\nI know him... I know what he really looks like... I know what he acts like... I even know many of his facial expressions.  I hate that... but its true.\n\nI am not afraid of him either.  Before I was a Christian, he maliciously tried to harm me, and I tried to choke him.  Is that fear?  no... that’s anger.\n\nHeylel is not a myth... not something of the mind... he is physically real.  \n\nHere is a website that explains his form... what he looks like... what he does... what he acts like... and how to overcome him... so on.  http://heylel.info

Yes the powers of Satan are real. The evidence can be found in the Bible as you have already stated. His powers are also apparent in life today, in some of the things society justifies, for which their is no real justification. His powers are also in evidence in some physical manifestations that many people reject as superstition or a desperate attempt to prove their religious beliefs. \nSome of these physical manifestations include possession or obsession. Possessions are documented in the Bible, but also in modern medicine. There are numerous reports found all over the world made by doctors, who were not religious, but were forced to accept the existence of Satan, demons, and devils when patients of theirs' exhibited signs of possession and after long, drawn out exorcisms by Catholic priests all signs of diabolical possession were gone. Both possessions and obsessions of a legitimate nature are recorded by many psychiatrists in the world as well as medical doctors. During these exorcisms, one of the steps of ousting the possessor is making it state its name. In one case, the one on which the movie "The Exorcist" was based, the possessor identified himself as Satan and his legion.\nMany saints, though some reject this title of them, have also been physically abused by Satan and devils. During their lives these saints were thrown against walls, hit, and battered by unseen adversaries. These ocurrences were not just testified to by the saints themselves, but also by witnesses, who were astonished to see these saints locked in struggles with something, lifted in an upright position above the ground or their beds, thrown aside, and subjected to other abuses. These saints would have the marks of these battles in bruises, broken bones, cuts, and scars. These fights with Satan are well recorded in hospitals where these saints were examined and by the testimonies of the witnesses. Some of these saints include St. Jean Vianney, St. John Bosco, and, a man many consider a saint, Padre Pio. I hope that whoever reads what I have written does not dismiss this out of hand but investigates it for themselves.

There is no concrete way to test for proof of God.\n\nPeople who say they know that there is a God, simply BELIEVE there is a God. To say that the world around you is proof of His existence is not true proof. God could have made everything, but science has proven otherwise.\n\nSo unfortunately, each one of us will not be sure of God's existence until our own individual existence comes to an end.

The faithful don't believe without proof. They do not run out and buy every product they see advertised. They read Consumer Reports just like the rest of us. If I tried to sell a theist a "magic potion" that would turn him invisible, or told him that his wife was cheating on him, he would ask for proof.\n\nWe only extend our need for proof one step further. We don't see why proof is needed in every aspect of existence except one.

A good question. There is as much *** proof *** of his existence as there is for all the other deities and pseudo deities.\n\nNote the word *** proof *** here meaning "not what some mortal scribbled down in parchment a few hundred years AFTER the alleged fact, THEN had it translated - several times - interpreted and re-written."

First you would have to find an evolutionist, whatever that is. And second you need to prove the existance of some alleged temporal hell.
