God handed satan( the anointed Cherub) rule over the Garden of Eden, as well eternal life if he didn't rebel
I'm not familiar with this interpretation of Satan's rule over God's physical creation. Was this by God's original design, to give Satan rule over the garden of Eden, or was it assumed by God that satan he would deceive Eve and gain it that way?
So did God know Satan well enough to know what he would choose given certain conditions, certain choices.
Ie. A new creation (planet earth included), naive creatures (including humans), fruit bearing trees (including one that God did not want touched), and angels (including satan, who God designed to have the ability to choose whatever he wanted, good and evil).
Did Satan's Creator tell him not to tempt humans to touch a certain tree? And if he did there would be consequences? Did Satan choose to do it, and this came as a surprise to God? Did God not see this coming and now had to devise a plan B?
Now God had to find a solution to this unforeseen problem. So He was forced against His (free) will to break His Sabbath rest and to get back to work to try and minimise the damage and potential damage caused by satan exercising his ability to choose to act contrary to his Creators will.
So Peter and John were wrong when they said
1 Peter 1:19-20
19 but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. 20 He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you
So after God finished creating and rested, not before, that Satan chose to go against God's will and Eve chose to go against God's will, that God had NO CHOICE but to think up a plan of redemption, to redeem what He just lost, 1/3 of His angels and who knows (not even God) how much of His physical creation as well.
I feel somewhat sad for this Person Who had His creations turn against Him and there was nothing He could do as His will had to make way for everyone else's. Sounds like a pretty weak, powerless Being to me. He could only stand back and watch, or before acting, carefully check to see if what He was intending to do wasn't going to violate anyone else's free will, other's plan they chose for themself and their world around them. Remembering God is a Gentleman and would not force, coerce, manipulate anyone to go against their will. Even if it was for good, to prevent evil, harm, destruction.
