Day 214. What are Satan and his demons? (2025)

Today is day 214 and we are on the section The Seventh Petition: "But deliver us from evil".

214. What are Satan and his demons?

Demons, of whom Satan is chief, are fallen angels. Satan rebelled against God and led other angels to follow him. They now cause spiritual and sometimes physical harm to mortals, and they sow lies that lead to confusion, despair, sin, and death. (Job 1–2; Daniel 10:20–21; Luke 8:26–29; 9:37–43; 11:14–26; Acts 16:16–18; 2 Thessalonians 2:9–10)

We will conclude today with The Collect for the First Sunday in Lent found on page 605 in the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
