According to Christian belief, God is omnipotent (all-powerful), therefore if there was a devil then yes, he could kill him.
Answer:
God is incapable of killing Satan. If he could, then it would be right and proper for him to do so. If it is right and proper to do so, he would have done it. He has not, therefore he is not capable. This argument is actually based on Medieval logic.
Answer:
Satan is an angel and angels are "spirit beings." Spirit is immortal and cannot die. Nor does The Bible say anything about after the Judgment, Satan or his demons "dying."
Their judgment seems to be more in keeping with man's religious idea of a "fiery hell"... except the "hell" waiting for Satan and his ilk is "DARKNESS." Black impenetrable darkness. In either case, Satan and his demons are destined for "eternal torment" in a type of Dante-like HELL!
Of man's Judgment, the Bible speaks of incorridgibly wicked "men" being cast into the Lake of Fire and burning up... dead... eternally, unconsciously DEAD.
So, it seems as if the torment awaiting the angels, Satan has influenced into men's vain religions and men think THEY are doomed to eternal torment.
Not so. Man is not immortal... he's DIRT. Dust you are, and unto dust you shall return.
Of the demons, Jesus says:
"...When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none." (Matt.12:43)
A demon MUST POSSESS SOMEONE... or someTHING... or it is in violent torment.
Now, read Peter's and Jude's revelations regarding the future judgment awaiting these spirits:
"...these are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the MIST OF DARKNESS IS RESERVED FOR EVER." (II Peter 2:17)
"...clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead... wandering STARS, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever." (Jude 1:12-13)
A "star" is Bible symbolism for an "angel."
"...The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches..." (Rev.1:20).
"...behold a great Dragon... and his tail drew the third part of the STARS of heaven, and did cast them to the earth..." (Rev.12:3-4).
So, it's really not a matter of what God CAN do. It's a matter of what He's GOING to do.
Answer:
God does not kill the Devil because it would negate God's intentions in creating us.
When God gave man free will, it allowed evil to exist and created a divide between the perfect God and imperfect creation.The role of the Satan is to enforce that divide.
Contrary to popular belief (mostly as the result of Paul's misunderstanding of both Judaism and Christianity when he Hellenized it and encorporated many pagan ideas later in the New Testament), the Satan is an agent OF God not acting in opposition. While it's true that "Satan" (properly Shaitan) translates as "the adversary" it is not of God, but of man. Think of Satan as being like a white blood cell, purging creation of illness and disease.
By over coming temptations and enduring trials and tribulation, mankind proves it's holiness and is admitted back into the divine presence so thatnwe can become as God intended- truly in his image. If we were to be admitted into the presence without first being purified, we would be totally annihilated. Even Jesus had to endure trials and temptations to prove his holiness before he could be admitted back into the presence of his father.
Man creates evil, not Satan. Satan tempts us but can not lift so much as a finger against us, so why destroy Satan? It is our free will and our ability to make bad choices that cause the evil that we must all endure.
