Don't encourage that. You don't invite the devil in.

People are missing my point. The devil mixes truth with lie. How else would the devil get people away from listening to the free grace gospel? He'd preach it with hate. 2 cor 11:14 says Satan transforms as an angel of Light, and so do his angels as ministers of Righteousness. Satan is subtle (genesis 3), and all he needs is one percent poison in 99 percent truth to steal, kill, and destroy.

Very true. And that's what I've said to several on this board in re as to why their words have the same effect as someone who preaches a false Gospel if it's not delivered in the love of Christ.
It's a wickedness for which we need to repent but pride prevents us.
That doesn't answer the question. Try again. What are satan's "good points"? You said it. Enlighten us.
I remember, about 60 years ago, my grandfather and grandmother having a disagreement. My grandfather did not like my grandmother's brother's wife. Aunt Wilmina. My grandmother defended her by saying, "She is a good wife to Fred."
To which my grandfather replied, "Sadie, if the devil himself walked into the room you would find something nice to say about him!"
To which my grandmother replied, "Well, you know, Herman, he was once the brightest angel in heaven."
Before we beat each other publicly remember, "There is so much good in the worst of us, And so much bad in the best of us, That it hardly behooves any of us. To talk about the rest of us." Edward Wallis Hoch.

You may have misspoke, but I didn't "miss" anything. Would you like to rephrase your comment? If not, tell us satan's " good points."

I didn't misspeak. I'm making the point that truth coming from the devil is still truth. He uses that truth and poisons it with a lie. Satan poisons the good points in regards to the true free grace gospel of Jesus Christ, yet he comes in the spirit of hate and works, and adds a drop of great confusion to mislead people. He might teach and defend grace through faith alone and eternal security, yet he poisons it by teaching works. He teaches if you believe evolution while believing in Christ you're not saved (works; Jesus plus something), and if you're gay you can't be saved (a second unforgivable sin). Anderson says kill gays, yet Anderson should be killed too. But Jesus took the death he deserved.

That's your quote and you want to stick with it. So be it. It is a thing to be remembered.
Personally , I know of nothing good about satan. I would surely like to know what you know about satan that I don't...that you see as his good points.
But you don't want to share it. That's not surprising either.

There's no point in explaining it if you don't get it.

I absolutely love your grandmother just based on that little conversation alone. She sounds like she was a very loving, Godly woman.

And we have a winner!!!
This seems to be something many don't want to understand. That might explain why so many think it makes sense to advocate for the death of another who has committed sin while not advocating for their own deaths for their own sin.
I'd say "Baptist" to be specific...
