How Christians Invent the Devil

Christians have all kinds of ideas about a fallen angel and enemy of our souls named “Lucifer” or “The Devil.” But the Bible says practically nothing of substance about such a being – at least not in any detail. So how do fundamentalist Christians reconcile this almost certainly post-Biblical character with their professed belief that the Bible is the sole authority on all spiritual matters? Of course it varies denomination by denomination and person by person, but most modern evangelicals follow a similar formula. In this video I am using a response to our old friend Dustin of “Hope Through Prophecy” as a case study in how Christians retroactively read Satan into the Bible.
