Isn't that obvious?Just look at Satan's people on this site.Why are they here?It's nothing but envy.The sad part is,envy is the only sin that brings no satisfaction to the flesh.It only causes more and more torment.Jesus would have them to work in His vineyard,but satan wants his to work in the pig sty.

Partly. Satan was cast down from heaven because he thought himself better than God:
Isaiah 14:12-15
12How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Basically, Satan wants to be in charge and have all the power and has deceived himself that he is as good as God.

Something tells me it is not so much a question of abilities and power, but more a question of respect and adoration. Satan wants to be the #1 worshipped power in the universe, plain and simple.

i think of there is existence obtainable someplace, however the milky way galaxy (or a great greater section) is a quarantine zone for us. we are able to on no account come into touch with aliens with the aid of fact we are the fallen race. After the 2nd coming and the interest of the earth, then we are able to fulfill the different beings in the large previous. Angels are a considerable occasion that clever beings different than human beings do exist. Angels have been created till now human beings. Why could God harm the finished universe, such as the angels whilst they have accomplished no incorrect? he's barely going to break and recreate our "quarantine section". each and every thing else keeps to be the place that's. The fallen race is the residing occasion to all the different unfallen races in the universe (angels etc), WHY sin is undesirable, why God's government is the acceptable one, and why devil is evil and his government sucks. that's the reason God enables devil to proceed to run amuck. He could desire to wreck devil in an instantaneous, yet that doesn't instruct every physique how undesirable he's. till devil sinned, the finished universe became into unfamiliar with the outcomes of sin and the place it may lead. yet now they have the evidence being performed out till now their eyes on earth. the reason devil spends all of his time on earth is as a results of the fact we are the only fallen worldwide. He has potential here with the aid of fact we gave it to him. Adam/Eve gave their allegiance to the Enemy whilst they bit into the apple and sinned against god. i'm specific devil went to different worlds to attempt to tempt them besides, yet we've been the only ones who fell for it.

this is possible but I would be inclined to believe that satan because he can no longer love God and has cut himself of from God`s love, has nothing left but pure violent rage and hatred in him for God and for us, we have the chance to dwell with God and satan has lost that chance forever and this is the cause of his insane jealousy.

I didn't know god could create life. I though that living things created life.

Lucifer (to be more specific) was jealous of Adam that he was ordered to bow for not of God that he cannot creat as God can. Lucifer was an obedient angel.

Yes, which is why he hates God. He craves the worship that only God deserves. He wants to be as the "Most High", that being God.

You got it. That is why he was thrown out of heaven. He is jealous and wants to be God. He is god to most. But he is not my god anymore. I cried out to God and He came to my rescue. He keeps me.
