Maybe you had read this vers many times or maybe once or twice... Well. I don't know much time you had read this vers. Maybe you had never read it.
But let take a look at this vers from Bible, New Testament, John 8, vers 44:
"You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it".
To analyze this verse we have to cut it down in pieces. Let do it!
"... (1) He is a murderer from the beginning, (2) and does not stand in the truth (why devil does not stand in the truth?) because there is no truth in him. (3) When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it (why is the father of lie?)."
(1) Devil is the murderer from the beginning. Now lets take a deep and profound look at this point. Jesus has accused the devil that he is the murderer from the beginning. What this means? What is the beginning? When God created Adam and Eve in the beginning of created world in Genesis, chapter 1, God has acknowledge them not to eat from the fruit if good and bad knowledge.
Here is what. When devil succeeded to deceive Adam and Eve eating the fruit which it was prohibited, Satan killed them spiritually. They lose the connection with God. Satan is guilty by these murders. And not just two these murders, but for all human kind and every thing that he had corrupted and destroyed it.
(2) Satan does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. What that means? Very shortly is about when Satan decided to leave God forever in heaven and Spirit of God left him forever because it was founded sin in devil and deceived a third part of the angels of God, which now they are demons. When God left him there was no truth in him. Jesus said that He is the truth and the truth will release us from sin and the slavery of sin which could be spiritual and mental. That means that devil tried to fight against Jesus, who is the Truth.
(3) Now at this point we can simply understand that devil is a liar. If he can not stand in the truth, in Jesus Christ, what is the opposite of truth? The lie! When I cut the verse in three points I put a question: why is the father of the lie?
Well, I told you that devil has no longer the Spirit of God in him anymore. When he was too proudly of him, he wanted to be God and to look like God. Because does not allowed this and God warned him about a possible sin, he became very angry and start to tell to others angels things that were opposite to God and those opposite things weren't confirmed. Those opposite words brought to angels by Satan were lies. Here's why Jesus called him a liar and the father of the lie.
Now you may ask me this is it?
Well where is the hope in all these?
1. Jesus has revelate us that Satan is murderer, guilty and the father of the lie.
2. Through Jesus Christ the spirit of any human being can be resurrected. You may ask how and/or why you said that? It's simple: by the death of Jesus Christ on the cross and by His resurrection of Jesus by the power of Holy Spirit of God. The ministry of Jesus in three years was confirmed by His sacrifice and by His resurrection. If you believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins and is the Son of God, you are saved. Read epistle of Roman, chapter 10, verses 9 and 10.
