I never thought of Satan being present at the Last Supper, but John 13 says that Satan entered into Judas Iscariot there. (Luke says it was before, and both accounts could be true).
It is interesting that Jesus waited to say many things until after Judas, and presumably Satan also, left. Judas had had his feet washed by Jesus, and had heard that he was to do the same.
Satan was probably still possessing Judas in the garden of Gethsemane, when he kissed Jesus.
Jesus could have cast Satan out, but did not.
Dorothy Sayers at one point wrote an essay, I think it was: "The Dogma is the Drama".
A couple months ago, I put a piece of paper on the fridge--our Scammer Prayer List. We were often getting multiple scam calls per day, and while probably none of them told us their real name, God stills knows who they are and where they live, and He surely has something better for them to do all day than bother people like us.
Two names went onto the list, and these scammers were duly prayed for--they still are--and suddenly the number of scam calls dropped, by a lot. The list still has only two names on it.
The Bible says that "the gates of hell" will not prevail against Christ's Church.
A boomer apologizes, albeit without much clarity.
"It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs," Jesus said; Matthew 15:26.
I recently understood that I am spending my life in rebuilding spiritual and practical foundations that had been foolishly undermined by previous generations.
Several months ago I was reading a nonfiction book by Christian author Paul Tournier, and made it about three-quarters of the way through before being drawn away to other things.
When I picked it up this last week and finished reading it, I found references to about a dozen Bible passages that had come up in my daily Bible readings in the interim, mostly obscure Old Testament personages with a variety of afflictions; Tournier was a Swiss doctor famous for connecting his Christianity with his medical practice.
I also read a Christian fiction book this last week: Deadline, by Randy Alcorn. One day, what I read in the book mirrored my morning Bible reading on that same day.
