Answer: Our God is a patient God. learn to be patient as well cause it pays a lot. At the end he knows he will win!!! this isn't the right time to deal with satan. When the time comes, u will be shock to see that EVERYTHING happens for a reason. byeeeeeeeeeeee!gringringrin

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.

very wonderful revelation but I have a small objection. I don't think the devil in his wildest dreams and imagination ever thought of ursurpibg the Almighty's throne. He knows God better than we do and any one else, he knows dat he is d ALMIGHTY, d end and d beginning of power, so as very wise and smart creature dat God created him to be, he knew he can't confront God in battle and survive, so dats why it was said in Isaiah 14 vs 14 that "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be LIKE the most high" his plan was to be LIKE God since God is d height of power and authority, not take d place of God. And since der can't be two masters in d same boat, hence d war.

The Bible says God has made all things for Himself even the wicked for the day of evil.(Prov 16:4

A lot of us would never appreciate God if there were no devil.

If there were no diseases,how would we know God can heal? If there were no death,how would we know God can raise the dead?


The existence of satan makes us appreciate God more because He is ever there to save us from the devil and when we are saved, a stronger love and bond is built between God and us.


Whether the devil exists or not,that doesn't matter anymore since there is that great love and bond between God and us.

¤ Why didnt God kill satan from the beginning since he can see the future and knows satan is only going to bring trouble into the world and steal God'S people

¤ why did he put the forbidden fruit in the garden of eden when he knows its not good.

¤ why would an all loving God create hell when he asked us to forgive our offenders
First of all God did not create robots.

Hell was never meant for us, and still God does not want anyone to go to hell.

by the way satan is already judged and wants to take many people with him as possible to spite God, cos of God's his undying love for us.

Thats y he had to send his only begotten son to die for us, thats y we have a choice to believe and avoid the devil taking us to hell with him.

He gave Adam and Eve specific instructions that if they eat it they will die, and they CHOSE to disobey, and obey the words of an unknown "serpent", over the words of their creator, friend, father and companion, and even after they did , they had already been judged by their guilty conscience by hiding from his presence when he came "looking".

But the kind of companionship and relationship that was lost then was regained, when christ died on the cross and we only have to believe to enjoy the dividend of this unique relationship with our Maker and its eternal!.

Never doubt God or his existence cos by looking around you, u can see the evidence of his awesomeness.

And if you have questions about anything just take your bible and read the scriptures very well and you will be enlightened, cos its complete in all ramifications..

God cannot kill Satan because he is a fallen angel and all angels even the fallen ones are spirits (Hebrews 1:14) - YOU CANNOT KILL A SPIRIT. Same way all humans are spirits housed in physical bodies. That is why ones's death is actually the demise of the physical flesh beacsue your spirit will either go to heavan or hell fire where one will live forever. Hope my answer is satisfactory.

God knows the best reason but I think is because while God was creating every creatures, He created heaven and he'll fire and He promised these two creatures that both of them will be full of occupants. And you know God does not go back on His promise. From the inception, God knows what Satan will become.

If u encounter any difficulties in your life please recheck yourself, God don't have any opponent and look at this. Genesis 6v5 The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination and intention of all human thinking was only evil continually. so there is no spirit here, After God Created the universe, He handed over everything to Man to manage not so-called Satan, or spirit being to torment us.

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?

I believe you don't understand that third question which is dicey and quite strong! The op asked why God went ahead to build hell when he specifically preaches forgiveness? Look at it this way, your lecturer asks you to forgive the next student who offends you but prepares to punish all the students for one offence or the other? Perhaps to the lecturer, punishment is his alone! That may be an acceptable answer!

You know, people like that guy acting atheist or anti-God, when they get to the village, they believe so much in the potency of some village deity. In fact, they are so scared or voodoo; or, they may even practice it. When they come online, they act as though "anti-God-ism" is a sign of sophistication.

Most annoying is their lack of respect for other people's belief, calling God a nitwit. So much for the little education they have. I always say: thank God that everybody will die someday, and if there is life after death -- I believe there is -- then all men would answer for themselves.

YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN BECAUSE YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD, BORN OF GOD = BORN AGAIN = BORN A SECOND TIME. GOD BECAME MY FATHER = I BECAME A CHILD OF GOD IN THE 1980s MORE THAN 20 YEARS WHEN I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST BIRTH WHICH WAS NATURAL BECAUSE MY PARENTS WANTED IT. THE SECOND BIRTH IS SPIRITUAL ACCORDING TO:

John 1:12-13
12 But to all who did accept him and believe in him he gave the right to become children of God. 13 They did not become his children in any human way — by any human parents or human desire. They were born of God. NCV

NO ONE BECOMES A CHRISTIAN BECAUSE HE OR SHE WAS BORN INTO A 'CHRISTIAN HOME' WHERE PARENTS ATTEND SOME CHURCH WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE BORN AGAIN AND ARE THEMSELVES CHILDREN OF GOD.

WHEN ONE IS A CHILD OF GOD HE HAS THE SPIRIT OF GOD AND CAN UNDERSTAND GOD LITTLE BY LITTLE AS HE DEVELOPS HIS RELATIONSHIP AND INTIMACY WITH HIM OVER TIME.

1 Cor 2:13-15

13 These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. NKJV

ONE WHO IS NOT A CHILD OF GOD ALTHOUGH MAY CALL SELF A CHRISTIAN OR BORN INTO A CHRISTIAN HOME IS A NATURAL MAN. BECAUSE OF THIS YOU MAY NOT UNDERSTAND CERTAIN THINGS ABOUT GOD AND HIS WAYS.

Isa 55:8-9

8 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord. 9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. NKJV

CAN I ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS? MAY BE. MAY BE NOT. WHY DONT YOU ASK GOD DIRECTLY? BUT HE MAY OR MAY NOT ANSWER YOU. IT IS HIS PREROGATIVE TO DO SO OR NOT. EVEN HUMAN PRESIDENTS HAVE THAT PREROGATIVE. HOW MUCH MORE PRESIDENT OF PRESIDENTS! YOU SEE WHAT MAKES YOU DOUBT GOD ARE TOO INFINITESIMAL COMPARED TO WHAT SHOULD MAKE YOU KNOW THAT HE EXISTS AND CARES AND KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING WHEN WE DONT KNOW OR UNDERSTAND.

¤ Why didnt God kill satan from the beginning since he can see the future and knows satan is only going to bring trouble into the world and steal God'S people

GOD IS A GOD OF LAW AND ORDER. HE IS A GOD OF TIME AND SEASONS, A GOD OF PURPOSE AND DUE PROCESS. HE IS WISDOM PERSONALIZED AND OPERATES IN WISDOM.

ADAM HAD A LEASE TO RULE THE EARTH FOR GOD FOR A SEASON. HE WANTED HIM TO DO SO WILLINGLY FOLLOWING HIS INSTRUCTIONS FULLY AWARE THAT HE HAD GIVEN ADAM FREE WILL AND SATAN WAS IN THE EQUATION. FREE WILL MEANT THERE WAS AT LEAST A 50% CHANCE OF DISOBEDIENCE FROM SELF WILL WHICH WILL MAKE ADAM ADAM LEGALLY HAND OVER THE PERIOD OF LEASE TO SATAN. GOD KNEW THIS AND HAD SOLVED THE PROBLEM EVEN BEFORE IT HAPPENED. (MR. TOYOTA KNEW WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH HIS CREATION AND ALREADY HAD A SOLUTION).

THE DAY GOD BECAME A CREATOR THE SAME DAY HE BECAME A SAVIOUR. THE BIBLE SAYS IN:

Revelation 13:8-9 THAT THE LAMB HAD BEEN SLAIN EVEN BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD WAS LAID

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.KJV

THE LEASE WILL END SOON. THAT IS WHY THE BIBLE SAYS IN:

Rev 12:12

12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. KJV

¤ why did he put the forbidden fruit in the garden of eden when he knows its not good.

YOU CANT KNOW OR PROVE A MAN'S LOYALTY AND COMMITMENT UNTIL HE IS FACED WITH OPTIONS TO CHOOSE TO BE FAITHFUL OR NOT.

¤ why would an all loving God create hell when he asked us to forgive our offenders

NATURE AND CREATION AT LARGE IS A COMPLETE SYSTEM OF RULES AND REGULATIONS IN ORDER TO KEEP THE SYSTEM RUNNING FLAWLESS. ALL LIVING SYSTEMS HAVE SOME PARTS OF THEM THAT MANAGE ABERRANT COMPONENTS THAT CAN MAKE THEM UNSTABLE AND IF UNCONTROLLED CAUSE SYSTEM SHUT DOWN. EVERY CITY HAS PRISONS FOR CONDEMNED CRIMINALS AND INCINERATORS FOR WASTES THAT IF LEFT ALONE WILL POLLUTE THE SPACE.

YOU DONT HAVE TO AGREE WITH MY ANSWERS BUT IF YOU WILL SEEK GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART YOU WILL FIND HIM AND BY AND BY GIVE YOU ANSWERS EVEN BEYOND WHAT I HAVE SHARED.

Jer 29:11-13
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.

13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. KJV

ALSO

Dan 12:10

10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

Hos 14:9

9 Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
KJV
