AMPLIFIED 2015 | Colossians 1:9 ¶ For this reason, since the day we heard about it, we have not stopped praying for you, asking [specifically] that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom [with insight into His purposes], and in understanding [of spiritual things], |
Bible Question: What is really going on with God, us and satan? Are we all souls that use to be with God, but now find ourselves on earth in the middle of a war of good against evil? Why couldn't God just destroy satan and be done with evil? Didn't God create satan? Why did evil exist in the first place? Will heaven really be a place free from sin? What happens if another angel decides to buck the system? |
Bible Answer: I thought I could help you a little... As far as pre-existance, such and our souls being in heaven and coming down to earth, there are no biblical supporting or denying pre-existance. However, in Psalm 139:13 suggest that we aren't created until we are conceived. As for God destroying satan, He will Revelations 20 is all about the destruction of the devil. You just have to have faith that God knows all and his decisions are for the best. God created an angel but the pride of the angel created satan (Isaiah 14:12-19.) Heaven really is a place free from sin. Other angels did defy God, they followed Satan to the underworld. They were cast down with the devil. |
