I find it hard to read the bible, at times I feel so engrossed in sin that I couldnt stand to read it!! Also my lack of motivation to read the bible really makes me feel like a bad christian.; Can i still be a christian but struggle to feel motivated to read?
 
There are no fallen angels the Devil was Cain the first murderer and liar in the bible and his angels are his offspring who prove who they are by murdering and lying. There have been a couple of the descendants of Cain referred to as the devil because before God there is no time and all seeds are one before Him. One of Cain's descendants was also a priest in the temple and he was the one who tempted Jesus. Angels cannot temp anyone because they do not have flesh and do not know temptation. Satan which an angel of the LORD some times is used to test (not tempt) so he was sent by God to test Jesus in this flesh and for that reason he used a descendant of Cain the Devil

This may be the cause of your problem,"I feel so engrossed in sin" rather than Satan.Eliminating sin from your life :applause: is far more important than regularly reading the Bible.

Christ was a leader of a cult that happened to become very popular then later disproved and still people believe because they have been told to.

Don't get me wrong some of the values of Christianity we could ALL learn from.. the hate the bible insights and the wars caused in the name of god has tarnished it forever.

If Satan was real.. the bible is Satan.

edit: tell me a war that was in the name of science?

Nah

Satan had nothing to do with my spiritual path. The bigotry hypocrisy & violence (including terrorism) done in the name of the Christian God did..

First Prayer when reading The Word of God remember to always pray first ask for guidance and it will be given, God has been forever in the past and will be forever in the future, as it reads in
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. and combining this verse with text like Matthew 1:23 Jesus = God with us, and John 1 where we learn Jesus was the active member of The Godhead that was the one who created us in the first place [then came to give us His Life in exchange for all who would but accept the terms of salvation] but the deal here in fact the whole bible is about worship. Isaiah 14:12-14 gives us what the devil is like, me me me, that is self but God is selfless, given and Love itself satan loves self. Compare the Lucifer's mind with that of The Lord in Isaiah 53. we have A problem however as people and Paul addressed this situation very well in
Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
7:15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
7:16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that [it is] good.
7:17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but [how] to perform that which is good I find not.
7:19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
7:20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
7:21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
7:23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
7:24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
8:1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
8:6 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace.
8:7 Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
8:10 And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.
8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
