to me recently
regarding the

to cast them into the pigs does that mean that Jesus was implicated with the work
of satan.It cast my mind into doubt and then i began
to question who God is.I prayed and sort the holy spirit for an answer the answer i got was that Gods character never changes he is always holy righteous and sovereign why else would satan ask for his permission.So the answer was that he allowed satans purpose
to prevail so that we can see that satans intention is always
to destroy it may well have been that the pigs were his anyway.As they were for the gentile nations who offered the pigs
to their demon Gods.Just as satan can not change who he is the destroyer the thief the liar God can not change who he is when we realise that despite what we see going on in the world God is still the same yesterday today and forever.The time is coming when those that have hurt others will be judged for there wickedness as we serve a holy and just God.Just as it was in the times

to judge the nations.He is coming again and we need
