Wiesel was brought up in a very strong Jewish home and explored his faith deeply as a young man. The Holocaust and his experiences in it caused him to question his faith, get angry with God, question God and redefine God's role in his life, but they never caused him to deny God's existence. "And I became religious, even more so. The question to me was a double question. How come that I really became religious, more deeply than before? And the second one, how come I didn't lose my sanity? "I never divorced God. I couldn't. I'm too Jewish…But I said to myself, 'I do believe in God.' But I have the right to protest against His ways. I have the right to be angry. And so, I do it a lot, very often, and I wouldn't change a word of my discourse to God, my appeals to God, against God. Because I came to a certain formulation saying a Jew or a man can be, can be religious or can come from a religious background, with God or against God but not without God. So I cannot live without God." - From Elie Wiesel: First Person Singular
Lucifer was considered the first being to ever rebel against the Lord's word in favor of his own greed. The Bible dictates talks sometimes of his arrogance and jealousy of God. As iniquity was found in his heart his desire became to raise himself above God and try to be the most high. Revelation speaks briefly about his initial rebellion stating that Michael and his troops come out victorious against the Devil(The Red Dragon) and his troops. His actions were an outright revolt against God's Word as He clearly states to have no other God's before Him and to Love God over all else. Lucifer wanted to worship himself as a god and he was willing to disrespect and defile to do it. Consequently self-worship is something often taught in many satanic and new age religions to this day. Eve was the first Human being to ever rebel against the Lord's Word. Transgression is considered a form of rebellion or biting your thumb at the Lord. Although she was tricked into disobeying God's commandment she still went ahead and did it contrary to orders. Adam became the second Human being to rebel against God.
In C.S. Lewis' "The Great Divorce," God does not leave the rebel soul alone. The book suggests that individuals choose to isolate themselves from God and others through their own rebellion and refusal to accept grace, rather than God abandoning them.
You can't be sure, because the Bible doesn't say that the don't have the free will right?
