One answerGod gives all the freedom of choice - including Satan. Another answerIf there is no Bad Guy, then what's the value of a Good Guy? Another answerIn the first instance when Satan rebelled, we may never know the answer, as this has not been revealed. However it is only true for a time as His doom is sealed as Hell has been prepared for the Devil and his angels, where he will remain, once finally sent there.

Answer:

Satan was not let go, he and 1/3 of the angels who rebelled against God were cast out of Heaven.

His final doom in the lake of fire is promised by God and God cannot lie.

Is Satan powerful as jesus?

No. Jesus is God. This is evidenced in the verses John 10:30-33 "I and the Father are one." The Jews picked up stones again to stone Him. Jesus answered them, "I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?" The Jews answered Him, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God." Then the question might arise if Satan is as powerful as God. See these verses Job 1:12 Then the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power, only do not put forth your hand on him." So Satan departed from the presence of the LORD. and also Job 2:6 So the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your power, only spare his life." God sets boundaries for Satan, and Satan couldn't go beyond those boundaries.

Does Satan ever go to God for help?

AnswerIf we believe in Satan, we should read the Book of Job, which contains more about Satan than any other biblical source. In Job, Satan was the loyal assistant of God, who gave him a challenge to prove that Job was unrighteous. God said that Satan could do whatever evil he wished, as long as he did not hurt the person of Job. When this challenge failed, God gave Satan a further challenge in which he could even hurt the person of Job. If this story is literally true, then God interacts in a friendly way with Satan, giving him tasks and advice, and is responsible for the evil that Satan does.

How are Hades and Satan similar?

Hades and Satan have no similarities. Hades is the God of the Underworld, the dead, and riches. ALL souls go to him when they die; good and bad. In Christianity Satan is the ruler of all that is evil, and bad souls 'sinners' go to him when they die.


Where does God battle Satan?

It is not have an end...never! they are both the same,you cannot think or believe only in one of them...Light and Darkness is our insticts!!! According to Jesus and the Christian Scriptures, Satan is ever present, trying to turn us away from God. Therefore we must be continually on guard. The Scriptures also tell us that our bodies are 'temples of the Holy Spirt ' the third person of the Holy Trinity' who is God. So it may be concluded that God fights Satan constantly through us. God doesn't really battle against Satan per se. As a created being, Satan is subservient to God just as we are. Like many of us, Satan choses not to follow God or to obey Him. Satan strives to hurt God but cannot do so, so Satan goes after those who are born-again members of God's family. Believers battle against Satan using the spiritual tools given by God. At the end of Satan's career there will be "battle in heaven" with God's holy angels doing battle against Satan and the fallen angels. Satan will be cast out of heaven and his sphere will be limited to earth. These are called the end times. At Christ's second coming Satan will be bound by an angel and cast into a pit for a thousand years. After this time Satan will be set free for a short time and then be cast by Christ into the Lake of Fire for eternity. I guess it's fair to say that God battles Satan through believers and through His angels. God could eliminate Satan at any time of His choosing, but He allows Satan to go about his disobedience to a degree. Satan can do only as much as God allows. Look at Job chapter 1 for a good example.


Who is Satain?

This is christian belief: Satan is an angel that wanted to be further up than god, so he tried constantly to get god away so he could be leader of heaven. Satan was a beloved human and angel but when god banished Satan from heaven Satan decided to make his own place below the ground. deep in the core of earth... a fire spun place he called hell. If you sin or you are not saved, you are said to go to hell. If you go to hell you will work everyday. You will burn and wish you could die, but sadly you are already dead. You will also go here if you worship Satan. If you believe in god then your good! Hope i helped!
