how can we be sure that there wont be another revolt in heaven? also...the first time , one third of the angels decided to go thier own way(well, follow lucifer)...do you think any of them were on the fence about it? do you think any of them still wonder about it? it seems illogical that one third would be absolutely sure they wanted to go and two third were ABSOLUTELY sure they wanted to stay. what do you think?

Fence sitters usually get knocked off... if they knew and did nothing but waited to see which way the fence was going to fall then they chose unwisely... they could never be trusted and were considered as bad as the active participants... same for those of this world who must choose which of the two options they have for eternity.
to those who post that angels do not have free will.. better do some study'n.... they do indeed have free will... They just know The Truth and choose to follow The Way... And mortals are less than the angels... until those mortals who follow The Way receive their crowns and take their place as joint heirs with Christ.

Hi.
Good question... except once the issue that satan raised in the garden of eden is resolved, it won't matter if another angel or human revolts. They will be delt with right away.
The only reason that this evil system we are in is still here is that enough time for the issue to be solved has not gone by.
Yet the end of this mess is very near. The Bible explains why things are this way, what the fix is and what to watch for as it all unfolds.
discuss?

I'm kind of thinking there won't be another revolt 'cause they saw what happened the first time-deterrent!
I think Satan deceived them. They fell for it. I know they regret it. Did you know that not all the demons are on this earth. The bible says some are 'in chains in tartarus' meaning a part of hell! From the greek:
Scary!
2 Peter 2:4
For if God messengers who sinned did not spare, but with chains of thick gloom, having cast [them] down to Tartarus, did deliver [them] to judgment, having been reserved,

Angels have some great reminders not to make the same mistakes... they say thing to eacholother like HOLY HOLY HOLY The Whole earth is full of His glory... and they know what happened last time and learned from it
You could also say the same of people in heaven, God changes their hearts so they will never desire to sin again

I think those that were fence-sitters were considered allies of Lucifer and sent to Hell.

angels were created without free will according to the bible, but then i'm a little confused that lucifer rebelled and now he is satan. there's some inconsistencies there.....

If they are still on the fence about it then they are looking from the fire side.

Your right, and when people go to heaven will they lose their free will?

angels dont have free will, they are made to serve god and worship him only. they are not like us, we are superior beings to angels in the eyes of the lord.
