They say Lucifer was once a singer in heaven and one day he felt like taking power from God. He and his companions were throwed out of heaven and thus they became satans.
All the troubles in the world started because of satan as given in the bible . Satans are very much scared of God and Jesus and still making problems. But why God is not stopping them and put and end to it. Some say to become more spiritual. But if satans are destroyed permanently i think the attitudes of the world will change and they will become spiritual. God has the supreme power and why this is still happening.?
 
So that we may exercise our free will to either choose God (who is all good) or Satan (who is all evil). Without allowing evil to exist, there is no choice for us to make. God wants us to choose to love him with all our hearts.

My own personal view is that Satan will not be destroyed forever until enough people in the world have chosen God.
 
It’s Satan that rules this lower world of existence. Without Satan, we would cease to exist in this physical world.
 
I always wondered why even created the evil one. Everything from God is good so why allow this to be? I know all about the choice between good and evil but I often question why. It seems very cruel to allow such evil in his creation. If I make it that will be one of the questions I will ask the other, who killed Kennedy. I suppose God will say the devil did.

:eek: This reeks of Gnosticism. The material world is not evil, and most certainly would not cease to exist if Satan were destroyed. I say this as a friend. Your opinion of Satan is dangerously similar to the Demiurge
 
Here’s a bit from the Catechism (#395) that doesn’t directly answer the question, but may offer some comfort:
It is a great mystery that [divine] providence should permit diabolical activity, but “we know that in everything God works for good with those who love him.” (Romans 8:28)

God didn’t create the evil one evil. He created a spiritual being and who like us he was endowed with freewill. He sinned of his own volition and through pride decided that he wanted to be God. All sins ultimately stem from pride and invilve us thinking we know better than our Creator.
