Quotes about Belial

to call a man without the Holy Spirit "upright and God-fearing" is the same as calling Belial "Christ".

What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?

Belial came last, than whom a spirit more lewd, Fell not from Heaven, or more gross to love Vice for itself: to him no temple stood Or altar smoked; yet who more oft than he In temples and at altars, when the priest Turns atheist, as did Eli's sons, who filled With lust and violence the house of God. In courts and palaces he also reigns And in luxurious cities, where the noise Of riot ascends above their loftiest tow'rs

When night Darkens the streets, then wander forth the sons Of Belial, flown with insolence and wine.

Thus Belial, with words clothed in reason's garb, counseled ignoble ease, and peaceful sloth, not peace.
