But god created satan, so he created evil. It's not a bad thing, if he didn't create evil, we couldn't have free will.
I think there is a difference. God created satan with free will. Satan rebelled against God. The act of rebellion is the creation of evil. God did not create rebellion. He created the being that rebelled.

You father a child. Your child wrecks the car. You did not wreck the car.

But I think this is trivial and I will believe as I do. You carry on. Believe as you do.

The worst thing that Satan did was maybe be an overacheiver.

Isa 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!
Isa 14:13 "But you said in your heart, 'I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God, And I will sit on the mount of assembly In the recesses of the north.
Isa 14:14 'I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.'


He only wanted to be like the Most High. Good luck to all you who wanna-be "Christ-like". :killingme

But satan wanted to usurp God's glory setting himself against God. Christians that seek to be Christ-like are following God's instructions and not rebelling. Exact opposites.

Depending on the church. Satan COULD be Jesus' brother. When God decided to create man, He wanted man to have free will, Satan did not... he wanted man to be submissive and do what he was told.

There was a great battle in heaven, those (Angels) that sided with Satan, and those that sided with God and Jesus.. after the battle, and after his defeat Satan was cast out of heaven.
