“You know what was going on in my life at 15, and ... that’s how I got introduced to the music industry, because I swear I wanted to be like the Amy Grant of music, but it did not work out. And so I sold my soul to the Devil.”
- Katy Perry

“I sold my soul to the devil, thats a crappy deal. Least it came with a few toys like a happy meal.”

When asked what he would sell his soul to the Devil for, he said: ''I already have. Well, you sell your soul to the Devil when you do something yourself that you shouldn't, and I already have. I've f***ing lived my life to the fullest. If there's an afterlife, I've got a good f***ing spot in the furnace, you know?''

I don't believe you can 'sell your soul' because you ARE soul. You can sell your body, but your soul is who and what you are...you can't 'sell it'.

One can not sell something that doesn't belong to said person to begin with...

A lot of good replies. God's word says:
(Ezekiel 18:4) 4 Look! All the souls—to me they belong. As the soul of the father so also the soul of the son—to me they belong. The soul who sins is the one who will die.
So everyone, and their soul belongs to God. And the soul is the person. Not anything else. It is the life a person has. If a person sins, that person, his life-force will cease to exist.
Seems pretty simple.
So NO. A human cannot sell their souls to the devil. They can open themselves up to demon possession, etc. But even in the Bible Jesus expelled many demons from people. And freed their souls from demons and the devil. He can still do so today. Even among the people who think they are the most lost in demon possession.
And just to make it clear, there is no doubt that demon possessed people who deny scripture and Jesus are everywhere on this website, and basically everywhere in general on earth.

No. God said that the soul that sins will die. Not that it is immortal.
