More bits of Laeth - a demonic theme

Another selection from Laeth's aphorism garden


if you can make deals with the devil while you're here, you certainly can make them before you come here. a lot can be explained with this insight. 

the illusion of humanity will be destroyed because the devil always overplays his hand 

the first satan wanted to save everyone. the second wanted to damn everyone. the third wants to destroy the very idea of salvation. 

satan has armies, God has heroes

Note: These comments on the Devil/ Satan have particular resonance for me. 

I had never considered that pre-mortal souls might incarnate having (covertly) made a "deal with the devil" - but it would explain a lot

And why not? After all, even such a deal does not rule-out the possibility of salvation; so it need not be something that God would prohibit - even if God knew or inferred it had happened. 

The comment on Satan's attitudes to salvation is a compression and elucidation of what I understand about the progression of Luciferic/ Ahrimanic/ Sorathic evil; and clarifies that - when it comes to leadership of that party who oppose God and divine creation - there has probably been more than one.
