i have a question that i can not find an answer to..please do not tell me that some questions can not be answered..
here goes. sorry its a bit long..
God made the angels with free will as did he us.
then one angel Satan decides to rebel.. in so doing he gets banished to live on the earth. .. okay..
so then why did God put Adam and Eve into the same environment as Satan.. he must of known what Satan would do yes.. if he did know then this trying to answer the question myself leads me to the conclusion that Satan is part of God's plan.. as was Judas.. so then is Satan either a willing participant or an unfortunate victim? if so then why? why have we had to suffer all these horrors because of something God set up in the beginning.
why do I seek this answer well because if i am to give my whole life to God then i want to be armed with the answers to the questions that i will ask. so when the time comes for someone to confront me with the same or sililar question then i can answer honestly. and not shrug them aside or divert them as i have been. i am reading the bible trying to find the answer but i get lead to the same conclusion, i am a relitive newby to Christanity 10 weeks to be precise. but i do want so much to give all to the lord and surrender my life. so this question is a cry for help and enlightenment.
