Lesson 10.Rules of Engagement | 10.4 The (Temporary) Ruler of This World | THE GOD OF LOVE AND JUSTICE | LIVING FAITH

March 4, 2025 By admin

10.4 The (Temporary) Ruler of This World
The Limited Power of Evil
Read John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11; 2 Corinthians 4:4; and Luke 4:6. What do these texts teach about the dominion of the enemy in this world?
The Bible makes it clear that Satan currently holds a certain amount of power and authority over this world. In John 12:31; 14:30; and 16:11, Jesus refers to him as “the prince of this world,” who, however, is destined for judgment. 2 Corinthians 4:4 calls him “the god of this age,” who blinds the unbelievers so that they cannot see the light of the Gospel. In Luke 4:6, Satan even claims that he has been given power over the kingdoms of the world and that he can distribute them to whomever he wants.
These verses show that evil in the world does not merely exist by chance, but that behind the scenes an unseen power is at work, fighting against God and His rule. Yet the Bible also reveals that this dominion is limited and only temporary. Satan operates only within the “rules” established by God. God has chosen to grant His creatures free will, which means that evil can exist – but not without limits.
The Limits of Satan’s Power
  • God allows evil to operate for a certain time, but He has already determined the outcome: Satan’s end is sealed.
  • God’s actions are not driven by abuse of power but follow the principles of love and justice. He could destroy Satan immediately, but that would not fairly conclude the great struggle. All of creation must come to recognize that God’s way is the best.
  • Satan cannot act arbitrarily but moves within the limits set by God. This is exemplified in the story of Job (Job 1:12; 2:6), where Satan can only go as far as God permits.
To what extent does the fact that Jesus calls Satan the “ruler of this world” help us to understand, at least in part, the evil that currently exists in the world? It is comforting to know that this is indeed only a temporary dominion!
The fact that Jesus calls Satan the “ruler of this world” (John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11) helps us to understand evil in the world from a broader, spiritual perspective. It shows us that the chaos, injustice, and suffering we experience daily do not simply occur by accident, but are part of a larger conflict – the great struggle between good and evil.
Why Is This Important for Our Understanding of Evil?
  1. Evil Is Not Evidence Against God’s Existence
    Many people ask, “If God is good and almighty, why is there so much suffering?” The Bible explains that Satan, as the temporary ruler of this world, has great influence on events. Evil exists not because God wills it, but because He permits free will – both among angels and among humans.
  2. Satan Has Only Limited Power
    Although Satan is called the “prince of this world,” his power is not unlimited. God sets clear boundaries for him, and he can only go as far as God allows (e.g., in Job 1:12). This means that while evil is real and often painful, it does not occur arbitrarily or without divine control.
  3. Jesus’ Victory Shows That Satan’s Dominion Is Temporary
    Jesus calls Satan the “ruler of this world,” but He adds that he “will be cast out” (John 12:31). Through His death and resurrection, Christ has sealed Satan’s ultimate defeat. Even though Satan is still at work, his downfall is certain – his rule is only a matter of time.
Comforting Hope: Evil Has an End!
  • Suffering is not forever. Even though we experience hardship, injustice, and pain now, we can know that evil has an expiration date! The Bible promises that a time will come when “there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain” (Revelation 21:4).
  • Jesus has already triumphed. Through His sacrifice, Jesus laid the foundation for the ultimate destruction of evil. Satan’s time is limited – and that means hope for us!
  • God’s justice will prevail. Even if it sometimes seems as if evil triumphs, we can trust that God will ultimately set everything right.
Conclusion:
The fact that Jesus calls Satan the “ruler of this world” helps us to better contextualize the present suffering: We live in a fallen world where the enemy still exerts power. Yet this power is limited and ephemeral. Good will prevail, and God’s kingdom will endure forever. This knowledge gives us comfort, strength, and hope – because we know that our struggles and sufferings are not the final word. Jesus has already defeated the enemy, and we can live with that assurance!
How does the reality of the cosmic struggle affect our everyday life?
The Bible shows us that Satan holds a certain dominion over this world, yet his power is limited and temporary. This realization can influence our daily lives and our faith in various ways:
  1. A Realistic View of Evil
    We experience daily suffering, injustice, wars, diseases, and personal challenges. But rather than despair or blame God, we can understand that we live in a fallen world where evil is active but does not have the final say. This perspective helps us to avoid hopelessness and to hold fast to our faith in difficult times.
  2. Encouragement Despite Trials
    When we face difficulties and trials, we can remember that Jesus himself said,
    “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
    Even if we sometimes feel that evil triumphs, we know: the victory has already been won! Our faith gives us support and hope.
  3. Prayer as a Spiritual Weapon
    Since we know that a spiritual battle is taking place behind the scenes (Ephesians 6:12), prayer becomes a critical source of strength. God intervenes when we ask Him! Our prayers impact the events in the world, even if we do not always see it directly.
  4. Living Consciously in God’s Truth
    In 2 Corinthians 4:4 it is said that the “god of this age” (Satan) blinds many people. We should consciously choose to live in the truth of God, not to be deceived by the enemy’s lies, and to shape our thinking according to God’s Word (Romans 12:2).
  5. Living Justice and Compassion
    Even though we know that evil is still at work, as Christians we are called to be a light in the darkness (Matthew 5:14-16). We are to reflect God’s love and justice by advocating for others, showing mercy, and standing up for truth and righteousness.
  6. Rejoicing in the Coming Kingdom of God
    Satan may have temporary influence, but we live with the assurance that God’s kingdom is coming! Revelation 21:4 promises us a future without suffering, pain, and death. This hope should drive us daily to hold on to our faith and focus on the eternal.
Conclusion:
The fact that Satan still holds power over this world explains many of the challenges we face. Yet his influence is limited, and God has already won the victory. This gives us strength, hope, and courage to hold fast to Jesus even in hard times. Our faith is not just theory, but a living reality that shapes our everyday life – we live in a world of conflict, but with the assurance of God’s ultimate victory!

No matter how dark the night may seem – God’s light has already triumphed.
