The resistor's name

Have you ever wondered why Satan's name isn't in the Bible? Yet some angels are named; Gabriel, Michael. And Christ asked a person with a demon what the demon's name was. He said "Legion" which was just a way to say "we're many", so again no names.

Satan simple means resistor and, as some argue, we should say "the" satan, just like we do with "the" devil.

So why isn't he named in the Bible? Put yourself 100000 years in the future. You're living in an incredible paradise with many other very happy people. The Bible still exists but it's more of a history book at that point, all prophecies having been fulfilled. It also contains some beautiful poetry and psalms so it will never not be an important book. God himself wrote it, after all. And that's the reason that the devil's name doesn't appear in the Bible.

Jehovah God has nothing but contempt for this rebellious creature who has caused much suffering in his time. He isn't going to memorialize him in any way, shape or form. He'll forever be known as some "resistor" with his resistor pals who caused some harm but is now long gone, forever destroyed. It's not unlike those who die at Armageddon and are not written in the book of life. They're gone and forgotten.

It almost makes you feel sorry for him (Not). He has nothing waiting for him, not even a remembrance, just the blackness of darkness reserved forever for his evil self.

Or maybe I just missed his name while reading the Bible. :)

Any ideas on this?

Great point. Jehovah’s name is in the Bible over 7,000 times but his is not. How fitting.

While I appreciate your reasoning, i have to state the obvious that the creature described as Satan (ruler of this world) could simply make his own name known. Perhaps he also despises the name given to him by his enemy which likely has to do with attributing praise to Jehovah like most God given names.
My guess is that he prefers to remain unnamed so that he can work his scams undercover. It does seem likely that at least some demons gave themselves names (ancient gods) such as Molech, Dagon, etc. Who knows?

The adversary has many titles all basically either indicate his position as an evil opponent or express proper contempt for his ridiculous pride but as far as we know no true name though and if so rightfully so though there is one possibility. People are conditioned in many ways to have an overinflated opinion of this loser. I almost invariably hear witnesses assuming he was the first/highest angel after Christ people in Christendom do to trinitarianism are even worse seeing him as either first/highest pre fall or originally roughly equal to Michael nothing in scripture verifies the original rebel was any higher than a cherub (presumably below Gabriel as in 1 Enoch Gabriel is in charge of cherubs and seraphs) and maybe a prince of some sort (obviously not one of the 70-72) we shouldn't do him or any rebel any favors by viewing them with anything but the utmost Scorn.

"the feeling or belief that someone or something is worthless or despicable; contempt."

One of his titles common in Jesus time literally means worthless

Looking back after the final test especially as time passes we're going to view him as a clownish cartoonishly irrational and deluded egomaniac that made a big and bloody mess for a while that's long since dealt with not as someone that made for any significant rival of the most high.

Really good points. I was going to add to the original comment that he probably has revealed his name (made up or otherwise) to only his closest followers. They won't be around though to share it, most likely.

And I believe he reveals himself to the Masons as "lucifer", bringer of light. That is definitely a made up name. He is described as the one who left his lofty position in the heavens to come down to earth to help mankind. Those 33rd degree masons, what a bunch of cards. 😁

I would guess that if his name is something that gives glory to Jehovah, then he wouldn’t like his name anyway.

The one possibility ends in el so references the father so your point on it would be despised is very valid.

The worthless title is Belial but Beelzebub expresses the same basic sentiment "lord of the flies" comparing idols to dung and his minions to flies that hover around poop.

I think it might be Yaldabaoth. That name is sometimes defined as "False God".
Yaldabaoth Possibly from Hebrew יַלְדָּה בֹ֔הוּת‎ (yaldāh bōhūṯ, “daughter of [the] void”) or its Aramaic equivalent ילדא בהות‎ (yaldā’ bāhūṯ, “son of chaos”).

one of Yaldabaoth's epithets was "the blind and idiot god"

While it makes little sense for that to be an original name makes for an interesting hypothesis. But given the mythological genre of chaoskampf that shows up in the bible several times one can see it becoming an appropriate label like other titles of the adversary as one that became affiliated in a sense with primordial chaos via the inmate entropy his dysfunction brought/brings became a son of chaos and given God overcame chaos imposing order on reality this whole rebellion were dealing with is hardly even miniscule in comparison.

Well considering the feminine & masculine interpretations of that name, it goes in line with the image of the Baphomet encompassing both genders.

True I mean even Christ in his preexistence is referred to in the feminine at times as lady wisdom and when it comes to Yaldabaoth and that gnostic creatures analogues in different branches of gnosticism they are usually written as androgyne. And given autism is the hypermasculine neural pruning bias and psychopathy is the hyperfeminine in that sense daughter fits fine and spirits don't have biological sex so daughter of chaos is equally valid.

that’s interesting. i recall this discussion coming up in a car group one time and someone posited that perhaps Jehovah will not allow Satan to make his real name known to any man. It’s pure speculation but could be the reason his name is not known.

well said- and their “light” is nothing but lies. even if they reveal 34th, 35th and so on degrees of “light”, it’s all based on lies because Satan is the father of the lie. These Freemasons that think they are so enlightened are going to be shocked to their senses at Christ’s presense, but by then it will be too late.

that’s a good hypothesis and most likely the closest thing to reality because his real name would have been one given to him by Jehovah before he sinned in the garden of Eden, so all the subsequent names he has assumed are merely titles or descriptions, not true names.
