SultanOfPuna: There is nothing like allow, it was man who allow satan to destroy the garden because it was made for man by God. This earth was made by God for man to dwell. In Genesis 3:1-end you will see how God handed it over to man to govern and maintain. So it was man who allow satan to destroy it 1 Like |

Gregorian2020:So why didn't God tell Adam & Eve about his enemy the devil. Why didn't God tell them like Adam/Eve I have an enemy who is a serpent. He is manipulative and if he try to decieve you then run away. Then if you create a Paradise, won't you employ security?? Will you allow any evil enter your fresh paradise.? Can you build an estate and leave the gate open for thieves to come in and steal from your Tennant. If Garden of Eden had angels guarding the entrance, they would have prevented devil from coming inside to destroy the paradise. 2 Likes |

As a man who believes in the absolute in the absolute sovereignity of God, I'll drop my 2 kobo. However, I have to say this. May God forgive both the reader and writer for any harmful errors that have crept in. That being said, you seem to be on the verge of discovering God and I can only wish you well. You didn't ask this in the religious section because your curiosity has gotten the better of you. I would say, you really want to understand God and the problem of evil But I have to say this. The fall of man is the will of God. God willed it else it could not happen. The situation surrounding the fall of man is not outside of God's power and restraints. God could prevent the devil from tempting Eve. Like Abimelech, he could, if he so wills, prevent Eve from commiting the sins of disobedience. Nothing, absolutely nothing is too difficult for God. He allowed the existence of sin for his own glory. It is not unrighteous of you to do with what it yours and how much more of God. He could elect some and reprobate others. He may permit one to be brought forth of devout parents and another to never know there's even different religions and sect. God is the standard by which we measure all things. It is not right because it conforms to certain societal standards, it is right because God says so. There's nothing unjust or immoral about how God chooses to run the universe so you better humble yourself and accept God and all his ways. God forgive us all. Can I recommend a book? 1 Like |

SultanOfPuna: Satan did not force Adam and eve, he only presented a choice to them. Anywhere there is no law everybody is a saint. After the creation God knew that satan is not a threat to them, hence he gave them the protection against violence and gave them a law. It was the law satan also gave to them to see which choice they will make. They made the wrong choice by listening to the devil. Don't eat the fruit, if you eat the fruit you will die. Satan came and said eat the fruit, if you eat the fruit you will not die but you will be like God. The choice was now theirs to obey and they choice the wrong person. It also happened to Jesus christ in Matthew 4. And it is still happening to us all on daily basis. It was when they follow the devils voice the protection of God around them left. And they became living dead creatures. Normally we were not created to die 2 Likes |

SultanOfPuna: I think because he gave us free will. He wanted us to choose him over Satan. He didn't want to force us to love him(or give us no choice) Without evil how could we choose? This way god knows who truly loves him of their own free will? That's wat I think |
Re: If God Is All-powerful, Why Doesn't He Destroy Satan ONCE AND FOR ALL by Mrscarter(f): 8:46am On Nov 26, 2020 |
wizdomnzube: U don't need proof. That's the point. U got to choose to have faith |
Re: If God Is All-powerful, Why Doesn't He Destroy Satan ONCE AND FOR ALL by enuk80(m): 9:35am On Nov 26, 2020 |
Mrscarter: If he wanted us to chose him over Satan, who is Satan then? This means there is more to Satan as compare to other angels in heaven. Man didn't cause the fight that broke out in heaven but we are the one who is affected today. Why should God give the earth to Satan and allow Satan to control the earth? When Christ came to redeemed us, Satan also tempted him and promised to give the earth to Christ if he bow down before him. This shows that Satan is the one controlling the earth. If so, Satan is more than an angel. Maybe Satan was also son of God just like Christ. Satan was never after God but after Jesus. He wanted to take the position of Christ |
Re: If God Is All-powerful, Why Doesn't He Destroy Satan ONCE AND FOR ALL by Kobojunkie: 2:37pm On Nov 26, 2020 |
Mrscarter:Faith, in Scripture, does not refer to the mental gymnastics that many your so-called pastors and preachers sell you. The word faiths used in scripture instead refers to a collection of all the work done in direct obedience to the commandments of God by those who believe in Him. Think of it as a bucket that can be filled in obedience or left empty -empty is a measure in itself. |

Re: If God Is All-powerful, Why Doesn't He Destroy Satan ONCE AND FOR ALL by bigjackass: 3:27pm On Nov 26, 2020 |
Mrscarter:Then it means saying that God created all to be perfect in the beginning is a big fat lie. Because if they were truly perfect at creation they wouldn't have chosen Satan over him. They would have rejected the fruit immediately because they are created perfect and not capable of making wrong choices or disobeying |

wizdomnzube: Lol cos that's the meaning of faith. Not knowing for sure but choosing to believe |
Re: If God Is All-powerful, Why Doesn't He Destroy Satan ONCE AND FOR ALL by Mrscarter(f): 1:55am On Nov 27, 2020 |
bigjackass: Yes but that's what free will is. Having the freedom to choose. It doesn't make us perfect so I don't know bout that. But I think being perfect before that means because we were without sin up until they chose to eat of the forbidden fruit |

enuk80: Satan was the most beautiful angel in heaven. He was Musical I think. Yes god let's him control the earth because his time is coming and Satan knows he will lose. He's just trying to take as many of man's souls dwn with him as he can. Read revelations it will tell you of Satan's demise. It has a time and we do not know it we are to look for the signs. End times. It can happen any moment. Only God knows of the time, not even the angels do. I believe God let it happen this way so as to see which of us are good ppl which of us are evil. I think life is sort of a test for us so God can see if we love him n choose to have faith in him of our own free will and to see our choices n actions in life to see who does good works, who is a good soul or a bad soul, therefore worthy of eternal life or not. But honestly I don't understand because some ppl who are bad or who have made bad choices etc maybe if their life circumstances had been different they would of been a good person, made better choices n therefore are being judged for something they were forced into being. I don't know how it all works I'm sure god is more compassionate than some ppl make him out to be. |

Mrscarter:You are again repeating a narrative that has absolutely nothing to do with Satan as described in the Bible. Here's a tip! Always verify everything you hear or read. |
