If Gos is all powerful and everything how did Satan have the power to take along some of God's angels with him and turn them into demons?

Ok if they were tempted and persuaded what the heck did the angels have to gain if they followed Satan? Why did god make Satan? Just so God could have an enemy? That does not add up.

God created us, flowers, everything....
so he created SATAN as well, for what it is.
He created this planet for us, all the temptations of this world, ghosts, jinns, so why couldnt he make a satan...
Its all our test my friend...
we are put on this world just to see whether we will "pass" - so beg God for forgivenness, and beg against the evil of satan... ok
because God is the One who determines what will happen to you, and when....and how..

Those stories of Satan and his fall are fascinating, aren't they. Key word---STORIES. I prefer to think about the things we can do to make our world and our selves better. Satan--negative. God/Goddess--positive. Get on board---Blessings!

Even God will not take away our free agency. He let's us choose to follow good or evil.
" 27 Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh; and all things are given them which are expedient unto man. And they are free to choose liberty and eternal life, through the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devil; for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself."

It is called DECISION, nobody can force anyone to follow something they don't want. Just as if you don't want to believe in God, nobody can force you to.

you might want to look into the canannite myths. in many ways, the christian stories are just retellings of the ELOHIM (GOD), BAAL (Jesus) and MOT (the devil)
