    But if Satan is all powerful then God is not, as God could not hold power over Satan.

      That’s what I’m saying, like there’s a constant battle between two forces of equal (infinite) power. But it’s not constant or continuous, so at times one “wins” over the other in discrete circumstances.

      Imagine if you were omnipotent but still needed to consciously invoke your power every time in order to do anything with it. You might lose some of your battles, though that doesn’t really jive with the Christian concept of God’s power.

      I am intentionally mythologizing and playing loose with existing canon because this is an unanswerable philosophical question and I am a silly little goose.
