Is the Grim Reaper - Satan with another name?

Question

Is the Grim Reaper Satan with another name? Or are the Grim Reaper and Satan two different people/things?

Answer 1

Satan is the like ruler of hell and the grim reaper is the person that takes you down to hell.

Answer 2

Looking at the Bibel, there's a verse in 2nd corinthians that states the enemy is death. That's -more or less, and can be interpreted as- a metaphor for Satan. Even if you interpret this verse as not a metaphor, the grim reaper is still not good.

Answer 3

no the grim reaper is good and satan is bad two different people

Answer 4

The Reaper is a personification of death. Satan is a personification of evil. Neither exists in reality.

Answer 5

different people, grim reaper is death, the one who removes souls from this world



Satan is the devil, ruler of hell cast down from heaven after defying god



you don't usually hear both in the same story cause Grim is more Ancient Greek, and Satan is more Christian

Answer 6

When you think about it they are kind the same people. But i believe they are meant to be two different people. That's a good question i never really thought about it like that

Answer 7

different because Satan is ruler of all evil I think and Grim Reaper delivers souls

Answer 8

In mythology, the Grim Reaper represents the entity who comes to collect your soul at death....not evil, not good.



Satan, on the other hand, is all evil, there is nothing good in him. He is the ruler of the underworld.

Answer 9

Actually, no. The angel of death or the Grim Reaper "Decides if souls go to heaven or hell." Satan or The Devil is the "Ruler" of hell.

Answer 10

no, they are the same.

Answer 11

Completely different

Answer 12

No. They are two different things. Satan is the ruler of hell. He is pure evil. The Grim Reaper is neither evil nor good. He just takes you to the other side when you die.

Answer 13

No

Answer 14

The Grim Reaper is supposed to be the symbol for death.

Answer 15

I would say no. My reason is this: Death is not evil. Death is a natural part of existence. Satan is a man-made spectre who personifies the man-made concept of evil. Good and evil do not exist in nature.

Answer 16

no the grim reaper is just a mythological being who takes dead soulz or wutever and grim being sad reaper meaning i think death

so know he is not satan with another name u culd say he is the father of daeth

Answer 17

Grim reaper "the concept"of the grim reaper is a mythical being that takes lives when their time has come, just doing his job really, he isn't evil or meant to be, he doesnt have any plans to run, ruin demolish the world, nor does he have any evil intentions.

It's a dirty job, but somebodys got ot do it.

Answer 18

Not really. Satan is the lord of the underworld and basically watches over all the souls trapped in hell. The grim reaper is a more neutral character. Think of him/her/it as the personification of death itself.

Answer 19

Grim Reaper...Death



Satan...Evil, personified.

Answer 20

different entities depending on which religion you look at it from.. grim reaper generally takes the souls of hte dead and delivers them to wherever they are meant to be and satan is well you know... pure evil..

Answer 21

The Grim Reaper is supposedly the Angel of Death, a completely different character from Satan, who is no longer considered an angel by anybody.

Answer 22

Satan is the form of evil. The gatekeeper of hell, and the one who inflicts internal damnation on all of them.

The Grim Reaper, or the spirit of Death, is simply put, Death. A force of nature. Something neutral. It happens to everyone. Eventually. Sleep sweet. :)

Answer 23

The Grim Reaper is only the delivery boy.

Answer 24

it's not the grim reaper its the wraith and it's not the devils minion or gods servant he is just the one that takes us to the other side

Answer 25

There two different people.... Satan.... is the king of hell..... and the grim reapers job is to take the souls to other side... and that's pretty much it for both of them

Answer 26

They are different, but most likely have connections...

:o)

Answer 27

I think the grim reaper just encourages you into death. and Satan is death

Answer 28

No the grim reaper is someone who brings death. Satan ios the devil.

Answer 29

grim is probably a servant of Satan.....who cares its probably just made up but i wouldnt be surprised if the grim was real

Answer 30

Two seperate things.



Satan- pure evil

Grim Reaper- supposed to be neutral, he delivers souls to both sides.

Answer 31

Different

Grim Reaper - Lives and breathes death, and takes the life out of you when the time is right.

Satan - Follows up on his work.

Answer 32

Different, Satan is the soure of anything evil

Grim Reaper is death, only ends your life, does not collect your soul

Answer 33

of course they are different!



Grim Reaper is the one who will accompany the soul of the dead person going to the life after death ot to the other dimension of the world.





While Satan is a pure evil thing! God of Devils! hes not going to go with you when you die! bcuz Satan is very busy tempting others to temptations. Satan dont care about the dying person.

Answer 34

Normally, the Grim Reaper is death incarnate. He's generally just doing his job - he's not running hell, and he's not particularly interested in whether people wind up in heaven or hell.



Wiki has a specific section on Death and Satan, partway down the link below, but I think that's a bit different. The "Angel of Death" in a biblical sense is not what most people mean by the Grim Reaper (at least in my opinion).

Answer 35

who the hell is grim reaper?

Answer 36

It is the same.

Answer 37

different

Answer 38

different
