Does God Love Satan?
This question comes from my reading of Ezekiel 27, how the king of Tyre also represents Satan and kind of depicts the tragedy of the whole situation. Anyone have any thoughts on this in general?

@1234567890a yes there’s more than one book and there’s books against and for and everyone is fighting over religion and which one is better and blah blah blah.
Just take it for what it is.
It’s something that provides a catharsis for people who have deep rooted unresolved psychological stuff.
And then it’s like ok. Do what you got to do.

@1234567890a That reason is 1/3 of the angels rebelled against God being led by Satan… rebellion against God is sin. They were cast out of heaven are hell bound along with Satan who was the most beautiful angel among them… he was called a light bearer. He thought in his heart to become as high as God himself…
2/3 of those angels have never sinned and are still in heaven and many even walk among us… They do not need to be redeemed.
The Bible says be careful how you entertain strangers for some have entertained angels unaware.
“Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
Hebrews 13:2

@1234567890a God loves everyone, including Satan, however, He hates his evil, sinful ways, for which Satan refuses to repent. Satan was one of God's most beautiful angels in the beginning, that rebelled against him and tried to take over the throne and all of Heaven and the angels.

@Evegpt [quote]God looked at everything he had created and pronounced it good. [/quote]
So God thinks Satan is good too. Who are you to say otherwise?
[quote]We all know what will happen to those who reject God.[/quote]
No, you and some like you only think you know. It's called hubris.

@InvictusIndigo [quote]However, I have heard it said that hell isn't bad because of the absence of God but because of his presence.[/quote]
That makes absolutely no sense, because God is not present in hell. The Bible says so.

The first Graphic novel series “Lucifer” put an interesting spin on that question. God created Lucifer to be the embodiment of free will, not evil.
Lucifer rebelled, because he wanted to have complete control over his own destiny. As part of creation this was impossible. God, could not give him total independence, the best he could do was to give Lucifer an place as far away from his direct presence as possible. This became Hell.
Lucifer isn’t evil himself, he rules a kingdom which is populated with the worst of humanity. with god’s approval.

@Entwistle I think because of God's implementation of free will in creation.

@CorvusBlackthorne If we are going by the Christian theology yes God knew of course and knows everything.
Satan is not special, just a being of his creation like many other angels
or heavenly beings not bound by humanity.
God allows all his creation the power to self direct.

@REMsleep Did God know how Satan would turn out?

I've always thought numerous things regarding it, I kind of support duality at least a little bit and often wondered if Satan and God were the same thing. Not that I'm right but I wonder weird things.

God loves all of his creation period but God hates sin. Anyone who is unrepentant of sin will be seperated from God.
Satan is just an angel who was highly favored by God but was so amazing and so beautiful he felt that he could be level with God.
He began convincing others also. Punishment is not a lack of love.
