If God is Eternally GOOD is Satan Eternally EVIL?

Is it possible that Satan has always existed alongside the eternal God of the Bible? Frank tackles this question by digging into the mind of C.S. Lewis. Find out how Lewis approached this concept of an eternally evil being in his book, 'Mere Christianity'.

Was that a reference at the end. I swear he called him A-A-Ron

Can we stop adding this background organ music?

It doesn't fit the scene, it didn't happen at the debate, it feels odd. Just my thoughts

Think how much suffering God could prevent just by taking away Satan's free will.

[festushaggen]

Satan has cemented his future in the lake of fire as written. He had full knowledge and access to God and rebelled anyway. He's not the slightest bit interested in repenting and will continue to be the liar and murderer he has been since his fall. His time is short and his influence and attacks are ramping up because of it.
King Jesus is coming and no one from the physical or spiritual world will escape the judgement. Repent or suffer his fate with him.

I form the light, and create darkness,
I make peace,
and create evil,
I the LORD do all these things.

Isaiah 45:7

[jamescox]

In order to do evil you have to know what’s good

[FiciousCritik]

--If-- _Since_ God is Eternally GOOD ...

1 Timothy 4:10—God, Saviour of All Mankind, specially of believers ✨♥️

1 Timothy 2:3-4—God, who wills that all be saved

All that he desires, He does—Psalms 135:6

Satan (May God rebuke him) does not have emotions. Only an intellect and a will.

Evil doesnt exist in and of itself, evil is a LACK of Good, since all goodness comes from God, evil stems from a lack of God.

[larzman]

Well explained.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil

[Rosiedelaroux]

Yes. All his close friends call him “ LUCY “

[jimfarnell]

Satan was not eternal, he was created, he had s beginning… he became the original rebel in the heavenly realm… his reprobate mind seals his fate as forever evil…

[wraves]

The reason Satan is so evil is because God is so good.

[arthurdevrome]

Satan doesn't give up easily. He is brave.

[InfoArtistJK]

Mind, emotion, and will are neutral. Not "good" until used for good...nor bad until used for bad.

[adamsanchez]

There is a way to know God.

Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted. -Matthew 23: 13

... “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.” Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you at the proper time, -1 Peter 5: 5-6

God does not discriminate. Humbly ask Him for wisdom and don't doubt Him and He will give it to you (James 1: 5-6).

[rocketscientisttoo]

The captioned question asked "Does Satan Have "Good" Qualities?", so the answer depends upon the definition of "Good", doesn't it? Just like the question of the rich young ruler in all the synoptic Gospels depends upon the definition of "good", right? Perspective or context is everything when it comes to uncovering meaning.
Another question could also be asked "Do you want the answer from man's perspective or from God's perspective? Man (generically speaking) always compares himself with other men, he has no other choice, but when the subject, the defining quality, is good or goodness he is already disqualified because God has already written and declared that there is none righteous, no not one. There is none that do any good, nor can they because God always looks at the heart motive, that "hidden" motive, and then He determines if the action taken, or even the thought that was thought was good according to His standards, not ours.

[followingjesus]

If (you) are the Creator, would you create a being that is #1, 1% less than what you are with freewill so that they have to look up to you, or look away? #2, Create a being that is 100% equal to you with freewill and have the choice of being the polar opposite of what you are? Or #3. Create a being with freewill that is 1% better than you and then have the capability to use that 1% greater power than yours and call (themselves) GREATER than you, being the one who (is) the creator?
How would you create a (being)?

Lower than?
Equal to?
Greater than?

I've met Satan a few times. I wouldn't say he's evil, just a bit twisted and bitter. No wonder! I mean this God fella is really 'up himself' you know... Well, you would be if you were him...Wait, I can't believe we're still going on and on about 2 beings that don't exist.
