Do you believe that satan knew who Jesus was when he tempted Jesus in the desert?

satan had know idea that Christ was God incarnate. To think otherwise is heretical!

OOoooooo! This ought to be good. Satan didn’t know ey? What say you smvoice? Satan stands in heaven accusing the faithful, he was with God in the beginning but doesn’t know that Jesus is God?

Are you serious?

"And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Gen. 3:15. Satan knew it was coming. He knew it from the moment Eve ate the fruit of the tree God had forbidden. What do you think the Bible is about? Satan's attempt to thwart God's curse that was placed upon him. Don't you get it? The moment Eve ate of the forbidden fruit, satan thought he had won. This world was his. The fall had taken place. Until God gave him the news that his time was limited, he was doomed, and at some point, the seed of the woman would result in his destruction. And his attempts to keep the seed of the woman from bruising his head. (A fatal blow, the end, satan loses).

Of course, you would have to believe Genesis to understand this. And if I'm not mistaken, the RCC doesn't. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
