I have never heard of Jesus' rebirth.
Satan is not to cast into hell in the legendary sense. (A burning hell where he is king).
Satan, will be abyssed (imprisoned) after Armageddon, for 1000 years. After that he will be released and gather people to rebel against God one more time. A final war, and then Satan will be destroyed. That is, destroyed completely. NO more existence for the Satan/Devil.

Way too many ques for 1 ans.- u need to ask only 1 or 2 at a time! I'll give my ans to 1 or 2, ok? Satan was Lucifer, the most beautiful of angels until he sinned (pride) and was then cast to earth with 1/3 of angels following him. Then he (Satan), a fallen angel=demon, tempted Eve. This happened in the beginning, many, many yrs before Jesus was born. Angels are different than man. Man is human, angels are not. And man never becomes an angel! Satan will be cast to the Lake of Fire(hell) after the Armageddon War when Jesus comes (second coming). There is no such thing as Jesus rebirth--You would benefit greatly as we all do to read your bible. Thank you for caring enough about God to ask questions! Continue to ask.

Oh my goodness - so many misconceptions and misinformation. My dear, Lucifer was a worshipping cherub (a type of angel). Angels are created beings set in different orders. There's the archangel, the cherub, the seraphim, and others. All have their specific purpose - some are worshipping angels, some are guardian angels, some are warring angels etc. They are a unique "species" in themselves. When sin was found in Lucifer as he said in his heart "i will now ascend to the throne and be like the most high," God kicked him out of heaven but he chose to use the angels to do it (since satan was a created angelic being). 1/3 of the angels of heaven decided to fight with satan (on satan's side) and they were all kicked out of heaven - DOWN TO EARTH - not hell. That is why satan is called the prince of the power of the air. Hell was created for satan and the fallen angels, not man. Paul wrote that it is "held in reserve" until the appointed day. Then hell will be poured into the lake of fire and satan will then be cast into the lake of fire. The event of satan falling from heaven to the earth actually occurred between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2. Then God "restructured" His original creation of the world from the devestation and void made by the conflict. Adam and Eve are then created in the image and likeness of God. And Jesus did not have a "rebirth" - He was Resurrected (big difference). People when they die do not become "angels" in heaven. They are still people. People and angels are two seperate species. As far as the judgment - there are two. When the rapture takes place and the Church is taken out of the world there will be a seven year period of tribulation on earth. During the 1st three and a half years of that Tribulation on earth, the saints (for all blood bought, born-again believers are saints) will be in heaven at the Judgment Seat of Christ - this is not judgment for sin but for works. If they had unforgiven sin, they would not be there to start with. This is where the scriptures come in that talk about some works are burned up like hay and stubble and some endure like gold. It is here that Christians receive their rewards for the good deeds and works done for Christ and in His name etc. The second half of the Tribulation period (called the Great Tribulation), is where the Christians in heaven have the "marriage supper of the Lamb." When you get over to the scripture in Revelation that talks about the Great White Throne Judgment that is when the wicked dead are given up by the sea, and hell itself to stand before God. The books are opened and if their name is not written in the Lamb's book of Life then they have condemned themselves (because they did not take care of this during their lifetime), to the "second death" which is not hell any longer but the Lake of Fire from which no one escapes for Eternity. No "bad person" (as you put it) gets past God. God knows exactly who are His (washed in the blood of the sacrificial Lamb Christ Jesus), and who is not. Hope this helps.

You will do much better if you ask all these questions separately. Also, listening to others rather than checking it out for yourself might not have you so confused. Satan was thrown out of heaven and down to earth by Jesus when Jesus sat down at his Father's right hand. He is still confined here and causes many problems. He owns all the governments which is evident from the fact that he offered them to Jesus for just one act of worship. The fruit that Eve ate was not necessarily an apple---the Bible doesn't say. Angels are beings distinct and different from humans. They were created by God before the earth and used to be able to go back and forth from heaven to earth. In Noah's day, some of them selfishly made human bodies for themselves and had sex with human women. These are the ones that Satan had been able to influence and they have been confined to earth with him. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask anytime.

Firstly,Allah created everything.Yes that means he created Satan too.He was one of the obedient to Allah but when Allah created the first man Adam(Peace be upon Him) and told the angels to prostrate to Adam everyone did but Satan refused.He fought on the point that he was made of fire and y shud he bow b4 someone made of clay?It was then that he had forgotten that Allah will not tell without reason and so he was chucked out.But he was revengeful n took a promise that he will for therest of time do his best to take people away from truth.away from reality,away from God so that they go astray.
Secondly,Jesus(Peace be upon him) will not be born again coz he never died.(in a nutshell that is to say.Otherwise the reason is really long).
Thirdly,when we mean to say that Adam and Eve were the first people we mean since the world was created.They r the first ones on the Earth.Otherwise angels and jinns lived way b4.
Fourthly,who ever told u that we become angels???We r made of mud and we return to it.Angels r made of light.They r pure.They r turned fully towards Allah and no person can be so obedient to Allah as they r.In fact on no basis can angels n men be compared exept that both were made by Allah.

Satan was called Lucifer before the fall to hell and according to theologians . and since Angels had no free will the story makes less sense than hogwash . So make up your own version you might make more sense than the experts have so far.And no religion I've ever heard of say people die and become angels that is just ridiculous and not supported in any religious script anywhere unless you just wrote a new one.
Also according the psychologists and biblical scholar Carl Yung they earliest accounts tell of Satan as being gods first son ... I would place stock in early scriptures anymore than latter ones but each to their own .sometimes is seems as though Mythology made more sense than the myriad inconsistencies of biblical texts and their foreground .

Ok. First, according to the bible ,(depending on which version you're reading) Satan was either thrown out of heaven sometime before man was created, or after he refused to worship man when commanded to by God. Nowhere in the book of Genesis, or even in the old testament, does it ever say "the serpent" was "the devil". Second, angels are supposedly an entirely different class of beings than humans, nowhere in the bible does it say a human becomes one after death. Note: Pretty good for a non-christian, eh?

Apparently you have not read completely about what you are saying, or you have been taught only part of the truth and part made up. Satan is not in hell yet, just look around you. He is trying to turn this world into hell. There is nothing that says we are to become angels. Read the book.

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.
The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.
Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.
Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.
Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.
Love and blessings
