I was just thinking when the question occurred to me,and I asked myself.
Why can't God just forgive satan all sins committed against humanity and Heaven and let evil stop for good so that we can all live as one world?

pedrojustice:
If Satan or Lucifer will humble himself and ask God who created everything in the world for forgivness. Then God will forgive..

Ganjafama:
If God forgives satan today, how do we humans know? Secondly, forgiving satan is tantamont to causing chaos because over the years religion has defined the way people live their lives.

jerflakes:


Causing chaos how?

When God forgives satan, there will be peace, and not chaos.

Because the devil in us will no longer exist.

The more reasonable question for the op is why cant God just destroy satan with the snap of a finger?

Doesnt that show you that God and satan are partners in crime?

CaptainJune:
God can never forgive satan or the angels that rebelled against Him.

Satan and the angels who sinned against God were originally created perfect, without sin unlike man. They used to dwell in the presence of God. They saw God, knew His laws but deliberately rebelled against Him.

fyneboi79:
. That is not what christianity preaches. Christianity preaches love for ones enemies.
BTW I think I like the old testament laws of "eye for an eye". It sounds more like it in reality.

Satan and the angels who sinned against God were originally created perfect, without sin unlike man. They used to dwell in the presence of God. They saw God, knew His laws but deliberately rebelled against Him. Besides, they were created in their complete state so that any sin they committed would attract eternal punishment as there is no way the sin(s) of a spirit can be atoned for by physical blood which is the only atonement for sins. That's why Jesus had to die on the cross to shed His spotless blood for the forgiveness of the sins of man, not angels.

Besides, God has already said the fate of Satan is hell fire and He honours His Word above His name.

Medicis:
Are you a Christian

fyneboi79:
Christianity preaches unconditional forgiveness and love for ones enemies. So in the same pattern I feel if God can draw satan back the same way He threw him down from heaven then all evil may cease and good will prevail. Was it not out of an unforgiving spirit and anger that satan was thrown down in d first place? God destroying satan would leave us to also want to destroy our enemies

jerflakes:


You keep talking like you do t believe in your religion.

If God destroys satan, WHICH ENEMIES WILL WE HAVE TO DESTROY?

For your info, destroying satan is the complete eradication of evil.

We will not wven remember that we we have enemies.

Na wa o.

Stop thinking like a human when you're discussing spiritual matters.

OgundeleT:

and God didnt know they will rebel against him b4 he created them?

can u prove this with a bible verse?

Why is it neccesary for God to kill b4 he forgive? Cant he forgive without killing anybody or he want to drank blood b4 he can?

what will God derive in burning satan?

fyneboi79:
So will I be wrong not to forgive a person who I gave so much opportunity yet decides to back stab me.

fyneboi79:
I was born into christianity but now I have become a free thinker.
Most of u are born christians and so u believe it is the right and only way. Have u ever thought of those born into islam who also believe that Islam is the only way to salvation. Can you now see d logic? We all believe where we are born into is d best.
I try as much as possible to be good to my fellow men. And if u want to be nasty,I take the "eye for an eye route......that is my own religion

Medicis:
Mr Free thinker. You are not wise at all cus if you are you should know that christianity is not judaism. I'm a Christian not because I was born into. God has laws and he won't change them for anybody and satan was fully aware, so he choose his own path @captainjune explains it better. God cannot just forgive sin because his laws( that cannot be changed) requires that an atonement( blood) must be made for such individual... That's why in the case of a man, jesus was used for that atonement but there was no body that could atone for for the devil because he his a spirit and spirits don't have blood... So there was nothing God could do. If God breaks his own laws, that would amount to sinning and God cannot sin. GOD IS NOT A DICTATOR!!! He has laws and satan knew, so he purposely choose his own path and never ask God for forgivness ( Read Heb 9:1-end). Incase you don't know, the devil has already been judged.

fyneboi79:
With all ur acclaimed wisdom you have ended up saying nothing but trash. Pls go and die and find out more. Bl00dy hypocrite

fyneboi79:
I am told to forgive my enemy and to wish him well. Do I then forgive my enemy today with the plan of hurting him(my enemy) when the time is right which is synonymous with casting satan into the lake of fire one day? If I am to forgive and forget then why the promise of eternal damnation?
