I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” ( Genesis 3:15) If the angels can fall and if some did, then what does it tell us about the character of God, in that we find no scriptural evidence whatsoever of a plan of redemption for them? Especially when this fact is contrasted with the mighty scriptural theme of a plan for the redemption of men, based on an outstanding characteristic of His character— “for God so loved the world.” * (John 3:16) In the Islamic tradition, Satan was known to have been a pious and obedient believer of God. During this phase, we find in the Qur’an that he is referred to as إبليس (Iblis). His disobedience is what made him into شيطان (the devil) [1], who is known to spread evil and misguide the believers. Stop hating yourself for everything you aren’t. Start loving yourself for everything that you are.” — Ken Kaneki John 8:44 implies that he is the father of lies. This means that Satan’s nature is to lie. He tries to use it against believers, he tries to tell lies and false truths to get to Christians. All who live in lies are sons of Satan.

However, it is quite important, in exactly the same way as the belief in the virgin birth of Jesus is essential to salvation. For if Christ was not born of a virgin, then He did not escape the curse of inherited sin and could not offer an unblemished sacrifice as an atonement for our salvation. This simple belief (in the virgin birth) is a fundamental underpinning in the moral law justification of our salvation. In the same way, the correct understanding of whether the devil was in heaven, whether heaven is corruptible, whether angels have free will and can sin, etc., has serious and far-reaching effects. Does God authorize moral evil? Can an infinitely holy Being be the author of moral evil? Did and does God send lying spirits to deceive men? Does He dispatch adulterous spirits, covetous spirits, murderous spirits, etc., to do the work of evil on the earth? What does the scripture mean wherein is stated that He hardened Pharaoh’s heart? Is God partial toward some people, giving some a chance to get saved, while others do not have a chance? At stake is nothing more or less than our understanding of the character of God and the nature of our faith in Him.

This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666” ( Revelation 13:18). As a result of that war, this evil angel was cast cast out of heaven and cut down to the ground. Pride caused his fall and also the fall of those that chose to listen to him. In His own words, Jesus described the scene as “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven” ( Luke 10:18). The people came to me except the donkey. The donkey is not part of the people, as القوم is comprised of humans, not donkeys. It is a common belief that the devil (Satan) was once a pure and holy angel in heaven, that he was tempted by pride and jealousy and sinned, and that he was cast out of heaven for that reason. Pulpit Commentary Verse 14. - Even Satan ... angel of light. This is one of Satan's devices ( 2 Corinthians 2:11). The allusion may be to the temptation ( Matthew 4:8, 9); or to the appearances of Satan with the angels before God in the Book of Job ( Job 2:1); or perhaps to the Jewish hagadah, that the "angel" who wrestled with Jacob was in reality Satan.

From the opening chapters of Genesis, we know the end from the beginning. Even after the serpent succeeds at leading Adam and Eve astray, God declares him defeated. Here’s what God says to the serpent. Why should I apologize for being a monster? Has anyone ever apologized for turning me into one?”– Juuzou Suzuya There’s no way someone who can’t even protect himself can protect anyone else, is there?”– Touka KirishimaAnd we see this promise fulfilled in the sacrifice of Jesus. Though Jesus was dealt a fatal blow, as he gave up his spirit, he crushed the head of the serpent. And we look forward to a day when we will see this promise completely fulfilled. You don’t need to blame yourself just because you’ve hurt someone, just like when you’re walking you can’t really blame yourself to crush some ants.”– Shuu Tsukiyama Strong's 1519: A primary preposition; to or into, of place, time, or purpose; also in adverbial phrases.
