We are given the grace of God to be able to repent and ask for forgiveness. To ask for it we must have faith that it will be given. Lucifer knew God and Jesus face to face. He openly rebelled knowing exactly what the end result would be. He already had the blessings of Heaven but wanted every glory for himself. For him there is no forgiveness.

You mentioned that " Lucifer is just a mislead angel who sinned, not an evil spirit. " You have several of your veiws quite twisted. In the first place God lovingly gave all his creations free will. Satan chose to MISLEAD Adam and Eve. Where do you get the idea that he was mislead?? The word Devil means slanderer and Satan means opposer. He chose to rebel againsts God because he thought a great deal of his own beauty and intelligence and desired the worship that rightly belongs only to God. ( Eze 28: 13-15; Matt. 4:10 ) By his lies and opposition to Gods laws he not only started the decline of man but BECAME a devil or satan. God certainly did not make him that way. Just as a person can be from a good family and be treated with love and affection can grow up and be a theif or a murderer. God did not make them do these horrible things, they chose to exercise their free will and do them. As for him asking forgivness and going back to heaven that is out of the question. He lived in heaven for an untold time, as a perfect beautiful angel. Apparently that was not enough. He will be destroyed forever when God restores humans and the Earth to it's original condition. God's purpose was for Adam and Eve to multiply and fill the Earth. They lived in the beautiful garden of Eden and if they had followed God's instructions in time the Earth would be full of obedient humans and the conditions they enjoyed in the garden of eden would spread throughout the Earth. Just because Adam and Eve sinned that didn't change God's original purpose to transform the Earth into a beautiful paradise with perfect obediant humans. "The righteous themselves will posses the Earth, and they will reside forever upon it ." (Ps. 37: 29 ) Satan's time will soon come to an end as well as those who follow him. " For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by means of Christ Jesus our Lord." ( Rom. 6: 23 )

Where do you get your ideas from? Lucifer does not want to repent and has no intention of asking for it. If God created everything then he created evil - as you say he created Lucifer and knew he would personify evil. Lucifer is a spirit, as are all angels and demons and God himself. Lucifer rebelled and this it is exactly what we are - rebels against God. Lucifer is not going to destroy the world, that's up to God, and was never a misled angel nor the only-begotten son of God.

Why people believe in Lucifer is beyond me. It is an established fact that Lucifer, the fallen angel, is nothing more than a mistranslation (or lack of translation) in a prophesy of Isaiah. The Bible does not teach that there was an archangel named Lucifer who rebelled against God and was cast out of heaven. The whole thing is a complete and utter fabrication. And a casual reading of the occurence of "satan" in the Hebrew will quickly dispell that myth. In the Old Testament, the Angel of the Lord is called "satan" as many times as the so-called devil (see, for example, the Angel of the Lord who stood before Balaam, who is called "satan" twice in the Hebrew, and the "satan" who caused David to number the people, and who is otherwise identified as Yahweh). And the New Testament clearly teaches that there is no devil, no Lucifer, no satan, and no demons. There is only God.

You are trying so hard, yet you do not know God or Lucifer (satan) for that matter. A misled angel, yah right!! He was an angel full of pride and arrogance and wanted to overthrow God, wanting all the glory for himself. He is evil and wants no part of God. He wants to be God. And he works hard to lure people away from God/Jesus. You are the one misled, not Lucifer!! Read the bible and get to really know God.

Lucifer is not God's son....
God did not create Lucifer to be evil. Like you state, he sinned and rebelled. The thing is that he does not want to repent and ask God for forgiveness... because if he does that then he would have to bow down to God as the almighty.... Satan, wants to be more powerful than God which is why he is evil and does not repent for his sins.
I don't know if he would like to go to heaven, but I know that he doesn't want to go to hell alone, which is why he tries so hard to get us all humans to sin like he does... that way we will follow him to hell.
God does not assume. He knows up to what levels the devil will take to out do him, and take us all with him. God can hope that Satan changes his mind, but it doesn't mean that he will.

First of all, Jesus died for our sins. The people that live here on earth. Satan was an angel. He was never alive. Angels are just that, angels. they are angels, were angels, have always been and always will be angels. they have no forgivness.
second of all, lets say he was alive, and did what he did. we only have till the day we die to ask for forgivness, not after. too little too late.
third of all, lets say he is alive and did this. God speaks of one unforgivable sin. Blasphemy. Satan is blaspheming all over the place.
Lots of holes in your theory.
But now, lets look at this another way. God sent all these people to write the bible, he even send Jesus here to prove to all the people that would not believe without seeing. But still, people deny him. People say he does not exist. People think they can just be good people and still go to heaven. Despite the fact that there is a bible to tell us different. millions of people to account for his existance. But since so many of us want "proof". and not just proof, but basically want to be slapped in the face by jesus, witness a miracle so we can explain it away, and make any excuses we can to live the lives we think we deserve, that we will never see him. You wont see him if your being biased in your search and just looking for ways to dismiss him.

Lucifer was not God's son... God makes the Rules... lucifer knew the rules and broke them any way... He knew the penalty... fyi... lucifer/satan is not the source of all evil... he is only a deciever... evil is generated by the individual actions of those who disobay God... and satan, and those fallen angels who followed him, are good at decieving mankind into doing a lot of disobaying of God's rules... and all of mankind suffers for such disobedience.
satan knows his fate... all he is trying to do is keep as many as he can from knowing The Truth of God's Word and Will and The Salvation Message.

satan causes hell, he doesn't live there.
God will forgive you your sins, only because Jesus died for us. When you ask for forgiveness it must come from you heart and soul. You cannot continually ask for forgiveness for the same sin.
satan did not want to be under the scrutiny of God he wanted to take over. he wanted to be the beloved of all creation. Unfortunately the job was already taken by someone much nicer and God sent satan out of heaven. his heart is not true and his vanity will not allow him to ask for forgivness an angel is an angel not a creation of God
