Do rappers sell their souls to the devil?
(ONE ANSWER)
Illuminati is not real and how can you sell something you cant even see
(ANOTHER ANSWER)
The Illuminati, Satan and our souls are all very real. I have done months and months of research into the Illuminati and who they target and why. First of all they do it for Satan, to contract as many souls as possible for him. So, the artist, whether it be a rapper, rocker, jazz, even some Christian artists, and much more. So, I mean all genre's of music are bullied by Satan. I would have to say that of the music industry has sold their soul to Satan. When they are ready to deal with Satan, there is a contract that is signed in blood. The next thing they know evil spirits are possessing and controlling them. That is just the music industry, I haven't even started talking about the other industries yet.

Does just saying you made a pledge to the devil mean you did?
Saying you made a pledge to the devil is more likely to be meant in irony, as in that you were forced by circumstances to strike a poor bargain.
Only someone who believes the devil exists could think of making a pledge to him, and only a religious person could believe he exists. But such a person also believes that nothing that could ever be offered in this life would be worth an eternal price. In other words, the very notion of pledging one's soul to the devil is no more than a myth. Wikipedia says a deal with the devil is a cultural motif, best exemplified by the legend of Faust.
Khabis was the father of Iblis. Khabis' father was the king of the Jinns, and his name was Hanmus. Khabis looked like a dreadful lion and his nature too was like that of a lion. On one hand he had the titanic power in him, while, on the other hand he was out and out a sly. He was the supreme leader of all the wicked Jinns. Iblis' mother was Nilbis. She was the daughter of Hanmus, the fifth leader of the Jinns. She appeared like a wolf. Iblis was conceived when Nilbis and Khabis had sexual intercourse in the inferno of Hell.

Why is the Devil called Satan Lucifer and Beelzebub?
The names have different origins:
- Satan is a "legal" term for an entity in Heaven acting primarily as an accuser and adversary, pointing out to God the sins of humans
- Lucifer is the name given for the angel that guarded God's throne, who decided he wanted to replace God and take the throne for himself (Muslims have a different interpretation of this)
- Beelzebub is actually a corruption of the name of one of the Canaanite gods, who was properly named "Baal Zebur", meaning "the Lord on High". The corruption was meant as a form of ridicule, since "Baal Zebub" means "the Lord of the Flies".

Who are the sinners in the mouth of Satan?
In Dante's "Inferno," Satan is shown frozen in the very center of hell. He has 3 heads, each of which is devouring a famous sinner:
1.) Judas Iscariot: former disciple of Jesus Christ who betrayed Him (with a kiss) to the Roman authorities for 30 pieces of silver.
2.) Marcus Junius Brutus (aka Brutus): lead the assassination conspiracy against Julius Caesar (Et tu, Brutus).
3.) Gaius Cassius Longinus (aka Cassius): another assassin of Julius Caesar's.
We now know there are many other worlds -- probably billions of them -- and that at least some of them must be able to support life. However, the residents of other planets in the universe will never have heard about Christianity or Christianity's devil. Satan does not exist there -- even on Earth he only exists in the imaginations of believers.
Is the devil a real person or just the sin in us?
only a concept
ANOTHER ANSWER:
According to the divinely revealed Truth of God, the Bible [John 17:17]; the "Devil" is real.
Jesus was tempted by him, and spoke both TO him in the biblical "temptation" account, and OF him to others. Satan was one of God's "innumerable company" of angels; originally an angel of great authority at the very throne of God in the third heaven, who led other angels to join him, and "sinned" when they made their "coup attempt" in heaven to usurp the authority of God the Father in heaven, in Satan's [also named Lucifer, and other names] attempt to MAKE HIMSELF THE SOVEREIGN GOD OVER THE UNIVERSE.
"...behold a Great Red Dragon... and his tail drew a THIRD PART OF THE STARS OF HEAVEN [God's Word symbolizes angels as STARS - see Rev.1:20]..." (Rev.12:3).
"And there was WAR IN HEAVEN: Michael and HIS ANGELS fought against the Dragon; and the Dragon fought and HIS ANGELS, and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven [for them]. And the Great Dragon was cast out, that OLD SERPENT, called the DEVIL, and SATAN, which DECEIVETH THE WHOLE WORLD: he was CAST OUT INTO THE EARTH, and HIS ANGELS were cast out with him." (Rev.12:7-9)
If you're familiar with the Scriptures, you've read in the gospels [Matthew, Mark, Luke and John] how Jesus was constantly "casting out unclean spirits" or "demons" from people. Well, in time those people died... but SPIRIT BEINGS, or ANGELS, DON'T DIE: and these "angels that sinned" that were "cast down to the earth" have continued to possess, and influence, otherwise GUIDE the subsequent generations of man to THIS DAY.
One of those influences on mankind that the "demons" have had is found in the false religions they have caused man to come to "believe in." One belief of which is that of "going to heaven" -- that place that they tried to take over from God in the beginning. The concept of "going to heaven" was SATAN'S DESIRE. It was NEVER a promise God made to man.
Jesus clearly reveals that NO MAN HAS GONE TO THE THIRD HEAVEN of His Father's throne, except FOR HIMSELF who CAME FROM THERE (see John 3:13). And the closest Scripture you can find that says "go to heaven" is THE DEVIL SAYING IT!
"For thou hast said IN THINE HEART, I WILL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN... I WILL ASCEND ABOVE THE HEIGHTS OF THE CLOUDS; I will BE LIKE THE MOST HIGH [or I WILL BE GOD! ]..." (Isa.14:13-14).
It's not just the "Devil" who is very real... but the ONE THIRD OF GOD'S "innumerable company of" ANGELS [Heb.12:22] populate this world with him... which the TWO PEOPLE whom God made in His image in the beginning [the MALE and the FEMALE made He them] chose to worship and obey instead of their Creator. This event set the generations of mankind on their deceptive life's journey under the misguiding influence, teachings, and ways of Satan; that has landed our generation here in this confused, hate-filled, sin-sick world today. A journey that is rapidly coming to its conclusion toward the LAST GREAT DAY of God's plan of Salvation for man and the world -- JUDGMENT DAY. The Day when all of man's works over the generations will be measured against the written Word of God... as well as the works of "THE DEVIL and THE ANGELS THAT SINNED!"
"For if God spared not THE ANGELS THAT SINNED, but cast them down to hell [tartarus: a spiritual condition of restraint], and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be RESERVED UNTO JUDGMENT..." (II Peter 2:4).
"And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, He hath RESERVED in everlasting chains under darkness unto THE JUDGMENT OF THE GREAT DAY." (Jude 1:6)
The Devil and his demons are alive and well and living in the hearts and minds of men everywhere! "
"Why do you not understand My speech? Even because YE CANNOT HEAR MY WORD. Ye are of YOUR FATHER THE DEVIL, and the lusts of your father YE WILL DO. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the Truth, because THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for HE IS A LIAR, and THE FATHER OF IT. And because I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, ye believe Me not." (John 8:44-45)
The "Devil" [along with his demonic army] is very real; living and active in the world; LIVING IN THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF MEN.
[[ step back a moment and take a gander at an overview of the world and its Satan-owned governments. "...the Devil... shewed unto Him {Jesus} ALL THE KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD in a moment of time. And the Devil said unto Him, 'ALL THIS POWER WILL I GIVE THEE, and THE GLORY OF THEM: for THAT IS DELIVERED UNTO ME...'"
-- Adam and Eve, to whom God gave the sovereignty of the world in the beginning handed it all over to the SERPENT, along with all of its future government systems --
"...'for that is delivered unto me; and to WHOMSOEVER I WILL GIVE IT {the power of human government}. If thou therefore wilt worship me, ALL SHALL BE THINE.'" -- Luke 4:5-6]]
But the world that's deceived by the Devil, is very confused by him, as well as ignorant OF him. Some don't believe in him... some do. Some worship him... some don't. But God's Word of Truth reveals that Satan will ultimately give A MAN all of his power in the near future to rule over man's last attempt at ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT. And it will be IN HIM that the world will believe:
"...and THE DRAGON GAVE HIM [a future man called the BEAST --- not the Antichrist --- as this deceived world calls him --- in God's prophecies] HIS POWER, and his seat, and GREAT AUTHORITY... and ALL THE WORLD wondered after THE BEAST. And they WORSHIPPED THE DRAGON which GAVE POWER UNTO THE BEAST: and they WORSHIPPED THE BEAST..." (Rev.13:2-4).
God's Word provides quite a bit of detail regarding this "concept" of the "Devil." Along with the "concept" of Jesus, who speaks in matter-of-fact terms ABOUT him... as well as being quoted as speaking directly WITH him.
