I am not sure of the religious meanings, but to me they are one in the same.

The Devil is Satan. The Bible gives the fallen angel several different names including Lucifer, Satan, and Beezelbul.

The word "devil" means someone who tells wicked lies about another person. "Satan" means an enemy or an opposer. These are terms given to God's chief enemy. At first, he was a perfect angel in heaven with God. However, he later thought too much of himself and wanted the worship that rightly belongs to God.—Matthew 4:8-10. Satan is a devil and the ring-leader of other fallen angels who are demons.

onw has horns and a tail and the other just has the horns? just a guess. I don't believe in either sooooo.

There is no difference. "The Devil" and "Satan" are the same dark entity. He is the cause of all sufferring on the planet. The source of all temptations to do evil things. He must be resisted and rebuked at all costs.

The devil and satan are the same people. The devil has other names known as lucifer and beezelbul.

Just a different name for the same guy.

Lucifer,Devil,Satan and blah blah blah are not the same fallen angels :) try googling the book called Urantia :)

Same Dude Maybe he uses one name when he's cooking up a roast and the other when he is out searching for politician souls, but If he is out to pick up chics he goes by Nick

From my understanding,there is no difference.Satan is another title for the devil.

I think one makes ham....and the other is actually santa with his name scrammbled

The name is the differance. Satan means adversary, opponent. The Devil is refering to the same entity. He has many names.

Devil is a title, Satan is a name, like a first name and last name. The first name is about you and the last name tells your stock. Like Jesus Christ, he is the Christ and his name is Jesus. Satan is The Devil and his name is Satan.

The devil and satan are the same being... Just different names and different prospectives

Uh, same thing. Well I guess it depends on the religion.

SATAN [Resister]. In many places in the Hebrew Scriptures, the word sa·tan′ appears without the definite article. Used in this way, it applies in its first appearance to the angel that stood in the road to resist Balaam as he set out with the objective of cursing the Israelites. (Nu 22:22, 32) In other instances it refers to individuals as resisters of other men. (1Sa 29:4; 2Sa 19:21, 22; 1Ki 5:4; 11:14, 23, 25) But it is used with the definite article ha to refer to Satan the Devil, the chief Adversary of God. (Job 1:6, ftn; 2:1-7; Zec 3:1, 2) In the Greek Scriptures the word sa·ta·nas′ applies to Satan the Devil in nearly all of its occurrences and is usually accompanied by the definite article ho. Origin. The Scriptures indicate that the creature known as Satan did not always have that name. Rather, this descriptive name was given to him because of his taking a course of opposition and resistance to God. The name he had before this is not given. God is the only Creator, and ‘his activity is perfect,’ with no injustice or unrighteousness. (De 32:4) Therefore, the one becoming Satan was, when created, a perfect, righteous creature of God. He is a spirit person, for he appeared in heaven in the presence of God. (Job chaps 1, 2; Re 12:9) Jesus Christ said of him: “That one was a manslayer when he began, and he did not stand fast in the truth, because truth is not in him.” (Joh 8:44; 1Jo 3:8) Jesus here shows that Satan was once in the truth, but forsook it. Beginning with his first overt act in turning Adam and Eve away from God, he was a manslayer, for he thereby brought about the death of Adam and Eve, which, in turn, brought sin and death to their offspring. (Ro 5:12) Throughout the Scriptures the qualities and actions attributed to him could be attributed only to a person, not to an abstract principle of evil. It is clear that the Jews, and Jesus and his disciples, knew that Satan existed as a person. So, from a righteous, perfect start, this spirit person deviated into sin and degradation. The process bringing this about is described by James when he writes: “Each one is tried by being drawn out and enticed by his own desire. Then the desire, when it has become fertile, gives birth to sin; in turn, sin, when it has been accomplished, brings forth death.” (Jas 1:14, 15) ....The Scriptural account, therefore, makes it plain that it was Satan who spoke through the medium of a serpent, seducing Eve into disobedience to God’s command. In turn, Eve induced Adam to take the same rebellious course. (Ge 3:1-7; 2Co 11:3) As a consequence of Satan’s use of the serpent, the Bible gives Satan the title “Serpent,” which came to signify “deceiver”; he also became “the Tempter” (Mt 4:3) and a liar, “the father of the lie.”—Joh 8:44; Rev 12:9....... DEVIL This descriptive name was given to Satan because he is the chief and foremost slanderer and false accuser of Jehovah, his good word, and his holy name. The Greek di·a′bo·los means “slanderer.” (Compare Lu 16:1, where the related verb di·a·bal′lo occurs. Down through the centuries the Devil has demonstrated that he is the arch-opposer of both God and man. He disputed with Michael over the body of Moses (Jude 9); showed he has power to ensnare others (1Ti 3:7; 2Ti 2:26); used people such as the false religious leaders, Judas Iscariot. (Joh 8:44; 13:2; Ac 13:6, 10); oppressed persons beyond the cure of the physicians (Ac 10:38); had righteous ones thrown into prison (Re 2:10); and even had the means to cause untimely death (Heb 2:14). Christians are, therefore, admonished not to give this Slanderer of God an opening by continuing in a provoked state. (Eph 4:27) “Keep your senses, be watchful,” Peter warns. “Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone.”—1Pe 5:8. There are other instances in the original text of the Christian Greek Scriptures where the word di·a′bo·los occurs but does not refer to Satan, so the word is properly rendered “slanderer.” For example, in referring to Judas, Jesus said to the 12, “One of you is a slanderer” (Joh 6:70); women in the congregation were cautioned not to be slanderous (1Ti 3:11; Tit 2:3); that “men will be . . . slanderers” is one of the evidences of “the last days.”—2Ti 3:1-5. Jehovah’s law to the nation of Israel forbade them to slander one another. (Le 19:16) The tenor of the entire Bible is against such misuse of the tongue.—2Sa 19:27; Ps 15:3; 101:5; Pr 11:13; 20:19; 30:10; Jer 6:28; 9:4.

I am sorry to have to burst alot of bubbles but the answers stating that tey are definetely the same are WRONG. If you look into theologian studies this is a question that has riddled them for quite a while.Most state now that they are very different some even say that Lucifer was not a fallen angel or angel at all.It is said that the one time that lucifers name is used in the Bible it is made in reference to a King of that time.Nebbucanezeer (sp). Others find the seperation between the two in the order of angels.Lucifer being a Cheribum and Satan being a Seraphim. It is also theorized that Lucifer was cast out of heaven because of his ego ( sin of pride ) and that Satan was actually the Archangel Samael who decended, not cast out, to rule Hell for GOD. One more thing that may blow your mind is that Hell is often thought to be one of the levels of heaven , it is speculated to be the 3rd.

The same thing. In English it is Satan in Arabic it is Shaytan. The chief of all the angels with best knowledge set ever given to any angel, later thrown out due to disobedience of God; i.e. not bowing to prophet Adam. When you have time just go through the English Translation of holy Quran; you believe it or NOT it doesn't make any difference. RK
