Honestly we don't know. Reading through the Bible it seems that there is no redemption for angels that choose to sin. However, the Bible is written about our redemption, not theirs. It is not meant for us to know.

Yes, according to christian lore, Satan was made by god. God, being perfect, must have created this Satan to play a specific role, Satan must be forgiven by an all loving god who created him to fill the specific role of playing the bad guy. right?If this god be just then this is so.. Satan was forgiven before he was ever created.

Since Satan means Saturn or Saturday, I would say there is nothing to forgive. There is nothing wrong with being a planet or a day of the week. I hope this helps. Best Regards, M.G.S.

Satan does what he was created to do. God created good and evil, Satan being the essence of evil. I do not see why God even needs to "forgive" Satan, since Satan never disobeyed God (or sinned). God must either eventually destroy Satan or convert him.

No. Satan cannot be forgiven, since there is nobody to forgive him.
That works very well, since he does not exist.
But if I believed your religion - god made satan knowing in advance everything satan would do. If god wanted satan to act differently, he would have made him different. So everything satan does is your god's will. When satan deceives people, it is because god made him this way.

Hello and satan at one point i am sure God had warned he was going to far, but Pride has a curse, in fact satan's problem outlined in Isaiah 14:12-15 showes a "i" problem, and the center of Pride is the letter "i" the center of sin is "i" self, the opposite is in Isaiah 53 that describes Christ, now in Heb.13:8, 1:5-9, John 1 we understand Jesus is God, and God came to this earth to show us what He is really like and what satan is really like, you see in order for Love to Be Love one MUST have the power to say "NO" without that one is just a puppet. Lucifer saw everything of God, was there living in Heaven there is nothing God could have shown him more, but once on that path of pride he found it impossible to turn around he had went to far, he figured he was good enough like we do that we can do it on our own, be good and do what is right without understanding God is the one that gives every impulse to do what is good, it does not come from within, in Rev.20:14 and 21:8 satan and his followers will die its the 'effects' of the fire not the fire itself that is forever, but we are not designed for that God has came that we might have life, free instructions on getting there, www.amazingfacts.org God bless.

sadly no he cant, spirit beings and mortal beings are two diffrent things, spirit beings got a chance, satan chose not to love god freely as the story goes, chose to rebel and was cast out, he hates god, and by proxy us becuse we are made in gods image and likness. we are mortal beings who till we die and shed this mortal coil can be forgiven if we are sorry, i hope this helps :)
"god made satan knowing in advance everything satan would do. If god wanted satan to act differently, he would have made him different. So everything satan does is your god's will. When satan deceives people, it is because god made him this way"
as we are made with free will so was he, god knows what we will do, but still knows we have the choice to choose other wise, its like me typing this, i could finish or close this box, god knows what i will do, but i have the choice to do either till i do one of the two

If God forgave Satan Christians wouldn't have a boogie man to fear. No one would bother with religion without a boogie man.
