Who is the Devil?
The devil is also called Satan. The word devil means "liar" or "enemy." Satan used to be an angel. But he wanted to be like God. God kicked him out of heaven. Ever since then, Satan has worked on earth, trying to defeat God and God's people. He is God's enemy. But God is far stronger than Satan. In the end, Satan will be thrown into hell and suffer forever.
Key Verse
