God is the omniscient.


god is omniscient yet he didnt know that Satan would ever rebel against him. God regretted creating humans. He regretted making Saul king. All these shows he was not even in control. You guys don't think at all.

It's all a myth. Good vs evil is always required for the story to appear valid and thus have the ability to be sold.

thank you. The earlier Africans understand that bible stories are nothing put pure fantasies, the better for us all.

While we are at it with the why's....

Why did he do nothing while the Rwandan genocide was taking place?.
Why did he turn the other way when Boko Haram were killing raping and maiming people?.
Why is he doing nothing while politicians, top military officials judges, are pilfering our wealth while we have so many women and children dying of starvation in IDP camps?

So many why's with no answer.

Bro, the simple answer to the first and second question is that God wants to test mankind.

For the third question.... The test will be worthless if those who obey God aren't rewarded and those who disobey aren't punished.

A good government loves and protects its citizens and provide their essential needs. Yet, it builds prison to be used by the same citizens. Why do you think it does that?

Test!!! If he is all knowing wetin he need the test for? He already knows the answer na! Human being and ignorance! SMH

@OP

You've asked a very vital question that over 70% of Nigerian Christians and Muslims can't answer cos they don't have none for it.

Satan rebelled in heaven. He was able to deceive one third of the angels in heaven to follow him. That's about several billions of angels. He questioned God's authority and lied to the angels that they were better of on their own than with Yahweh. He led a revolution against God and wanted to usurp God and mount the throne. He wanted to rule.

Isaiah 14:13-14

For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."


Many angels believed in his words as he promised them better than what God gave them. That was how he was able to pull some of them to his side.

Revelations 12:3-4
Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth.

After he succeeded in pulling those stars to his side, he launched his rebellion.

Revelations 12:7-9

"Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.
But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him."

He got barnished from heaven. Now, your question asks to to know why God didn't destroy him as soon as inequity was found in him. If God had destroyed him immediately, all the angels including the ones that didn't listen to his lies would have felt God was silencing His opposition. So, to prove the devil wrong by showing the heavenly hosts that no one can rule better than Yahweh, God decided to let Lucifer rule the earth for the entire universe to see.

Since Satan has been ruling the world, there hasn't been peace.

1 John 5:9

"We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is Under the control of the EVIL ONE."

Now, all those angels that refuse to buy his lies can now see that the devil would have been a huge disaster if he had been allowed to rule heaven. If God had destroyed him the moment he chose to rebel, those angels would have thought Lucifer was right, that's why God quickly silenced him.

The billions of angels who stood by him are now the demons and principalities of darkness in this world today, while the One that remained loyal are the good and peaceful angels.


Imagine if PDP used all the power at their disposal to silence APC, the masses would have complained cos they thought they saw a hope in APC and all its promises. But now that APC, has gotten to power, we can now all see that they aren't competent enough.

The time for Satan's destruction is near cos Yahshua is coming.

The Op point of view is from an individual who sees God as Omnipresent but the Op don't seem to understand the difference between 'having power' to do all things, and 'use of power'. So at Op, can you comprehend the way the Almighty use his power? For example, God too can forget things like humans. Explain?

Re: Why Would A Loving GOD Not Kill Satan From The Beginning And Let Live In Peace? by oniconx: 3:46pm On Oct 30, 2016
The logical answer is that to have a CREATION there must be to both good and bad side. And science too supported this assertion, that to every force there must be an equal and opposite reaction. Note. Opposite. Newton theory I think. To have a sweet taste there must exist a sour taste to compare. Meaning that to have goodness there must necessarily be badness, otherwise goodness doesn’t exists or have a meaning . In summary the World cannot exist without good and evil. So trust God he knows what he is doing. I can only only hope this answers your question somehow.

the best thing that will ever happen to you is to abandon Christianity. The Christian bible is riddled with lies, distortions, misinterpretations, contradictions and pure fantasies. Satan is just an imaginary being that exist only in the Christian faith. The bible god is just a mere tribal deity.

Satan is in the game to create and cause things that will maintain balance and prevent the program from running too long?

And was also given limited power in order not to crash the program too quick grin if not he would have ended the earth long time ago when he was banished from heaven.

Why do you think some people are rich and som are poor? grin

very interesting questions. 1. don't forgery that other angels are also interested in what God's decision will be like. so killing or destroying Satan immediately after the rebellion would've proved that God himself have something to hide because Satan's aim & objective is to disprove God's supremacy. 2. keeping the forbidden fruit in the garden is just only to show obedience afterall there're multitudes of other fruits in d garden to eat from. 3. the concept of hell fire may not be true afterall. because He is a loving God

Yes, men punish their own but we are talking about God that loves us more than all things. His love for us is so strong that he let his only begotten son to die for our sins. Devil has being outsmarting God since the beginning. He created Eden for men to live forever but Devil sent us here(Earth),he sent his son to save us still many will go to Hell. Sometimes I wonder who is stronger. God or Devil? Because for now,Devil is smarter.
