Satan Christianity's Other God: Legend, Myth, Lore, or Lie Historical and Biblical Proof of how Man Created Satan and Made Satan to Be A God

by James R. Brayshaw

This groundbreaking and controversial work brings a completely new perspective on the concept of Satan. Going deeper than simply showing Satan is a construct of religious culture; Satan Christianity's Other God explores how a belief in more than one supernatural entity is a belief in two Gods. The God of the Scriptures proclaims there is no other supernatural cosmic entity; this includes a Satan.In Volume I of this work James Brayshaw, author and researcher from Canada, takes the reader on a journey through the Scriptures and history. Finding his way out of the institutional religion he was brought up with has helped James to see both sides of the Satan debate. James clearly presents information and insight to help the reader see "Satan" was not created by the God of the Scriptures.The reader is shown why it is that Christianity believes in a Satan when the people of God were Satan-free until they spent time among cultures steeped in mythology. Scholars have readily imposed their belief in a cosmic Satan onto passages that say nothing about such an entity. In this volume well-known passages, which have been mistakenly claimed to be about Satan, are thoroughly explained.As man struggles to understand the Creator, becoming free of a belief in Satan takes the reader a long way towards understanding the One God of the Universe.

Great deal of research, but the author is not a scholar in the field and is also strongly biased as a self-advertised creationist Christian: I would have preferred a more factual historical and anthroplogistic approach than a biblical one, but nonetheless I learned a few interesting (and confirmed) historical facts about satan and the origins of monotheism in general.
