He is the father of lies but he is still God's creation.... and scripture refers to it: Isaiah 45:7 in the King James Version reads, “I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.” But this also serves His purpose....because in this...

Well you know the prophesy in the Bible that says: Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: So my...

Well, it comes down to a Sovereign and Just God who loves all His creation and desires their love in return....His is not a dictator and will not force anyone (including angels) to love and worship Him if they choose not to.....so hence He created free will which allowed Lucifer to develop...

Well, is given the ability to make free choices a risk that God took just for the heck of it? Why did God give Lucifer free will? why did He give us free will?

Yes......I guess maybe I am not getting what you are arguing? You don't think God created evil? I suppose you could argue that if God had not given us "free will" then there would never be any sin because we would all be programmed to think how He wants us to think.

So....if God created Satan...with his beauty, his intellect and his emotions then would it be conceivable that God, being a just God, created that in him? Or did it just birth and create itself in the heart of Satan to be puffed up with pride and jealousy against His creator? It really is a...

the scripture specifically says Genesis 3:4-5 4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: (here is specifically says the serpent "said") 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Satan cannot hear our thoughts however he can plant thoughts in our mind.....negative thoughts. As far as predicting what we are thinking...only those thoughts he planted...lol....he can predict you are thinking them because our actions line up with it. :)

“I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things” (Isaiah 45:7). This does not mean that God performs evil....but without evil then how would you know good? Genesis Chapter 3 1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field...

Aren't we all from the seed of Adam and Eve and therefore we are all partakers of the Covenant God made with Israel? Abraham is the father of many nations....12 sons. 12 tribes. When God created confusion in Babylon and people could no longer communicate because they were given a different...

I believe Satan can create every form of evil that he can think of....but the Bible even says that God created good and evil for His purpose....so satan cannot create from a non-existent to existent form of anything all he can do is pervert it and mimick it.....he does have power to perform...

Hey, marksman, just wanted to point out that this is the non-Christian, inter-faith forum so people of all faiths can post here. So while they are here show them the Love of Jesus and be the example of what you are trying to convince him of what Christianity is. LOL.:)

It isn't that effective....you get 30 days of group therapy, education about your disease, counseling on how to effectively cope with life and psychiatric counseling. But once you leave you are on your own again to make decisions for yourself whether good or bad.... I was in a 30 day treatment...

This is not true aspen.....and if you were to enter a treatment facility guess what they primarily do.....AA....the 12 step program....and of course medications.

I got a chuckle out of this....well to help you understand the hospital side....you came seeking "medical" attention for your alcoholism...and that's what you got....they probably treated you with Librium or Haldol....they offset the effects of withdrawals....but in all seriousness a person can...
