Satan is an angel
Angels are purely spirits
Spirit = reality of existence
Seeing God as a Spirit = reality of mercy and judgment Seeing Jesus as a Spirit = reality of truth and grace Carnal man = someone who is controlled by their soul instead of their spirit Satan was a superior quality to Adam Satan ruled from Eden Adam ruled from the garden of Eden (in the east) Adam had no power over Satan because their domain of influence was different Adam was given a free will with which he should’ve eaten from the tree of life
