If Satan lives in this fiery place called Hell then why is he called ''The Morning Star"?
That should suggest that he lives in the sky wouldn't it?

And if God is known as Alpha & Omega, (the begining and the end), Don't you find it strange that Satan has this same name?

Institution?
I do not believe in god or the devil.
I'm just pointing out facts so don't jump to conclusions.That is where the trouble begins.

If you know your Bible so well how come you don't know where Satan is called the morning star?
You must not read all of the Bible then huh?

I think that this goes under your headline of Satan actually being the God of the bible.

throughout the OT, whenever the devil appears,by name, he is always acting as an adversary FOR God! not AGAINST God! so after Satans original act of rebellion, where he convinced Eve to eat the fruit from the forbidden tree, he then became Gods tool.

Luke 23:3 Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot..

if the facts are, what the Christians would have them, then Judas was sent by God to play his part in Jesus' demise and subsequent miracle of rising from the dead, the act that brought about the christian faith, but if this is true, then Satan entering the body of Judas, must have been an act on behalf of God, thus it is logical to conclude that Satan worked for God.

there are two other occasions when God and Satan worked together; the first was when they conspired to test the limit of the faith of Jobe, the second was when God took Jesus to Satan to be tempted.

A quick and easy solution would be to conclude that the Holy Ghost could be the representation of Satan, though I doubt this, the other is to recognise that the two, God and Satan, are the same person, that they represent the same in God as they do in Humans; Good and Evil, the two parts of the conscience in an eternal battle agaist eachother, but together representing the whole personality.

No, Satan does not live in hell. If you study the Bible carefully, hell does not even exist at the present, but will be the place where God's last judgment will be executed. He is called the morning star because he was one of God's loyal angels before he turned a rebel.
Yes, God IS the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, ig Satan has that name it is because he is a specialist in faking. Remember (if you believe the Bible) that the reason Satan exists as he does today is because he desired God's position and authority. He likes to assume he is everything that God is, and the Bible says that he even sits in the temple of God showing himself that he is God.
You can take the Bible seriously, it is safe to do so

Satan is called the moring star because that is what he was. Satan was the highest of all angels. He was the closest created being to the thrown. But as with people he became proud. he said I will accend above the thrown of the almighty. I will rise above God. but he didn't Now as to how you come by satan being called the Alpah and the Omega, I am not sure. It is true that God is the Begining and the End, but this does not apply to satan. Satan had a begining, eventhough he will not have a end, just as all life will be forever.

The idea of Hell-- or at least the word--was originally a part of the Norse Pagan religion. Hel was a very cold and undesirable place you might have to go to in the afterlife, not a hot one.

The Christian church co-opted the idea and combined it with Hades, generally meaning the underworld.

The name Satan originated with the fire-worshipping Zoroastrian religion, where a shaytan was a (generally) malevolent fire demon. This too was eventually absorbed by Judaism and was inherited by the Christian.

Wherever Satan is supposed to live, it is written in the book of Job that "the sons of God and Satan walked to and fro upon the earth." (look it up in Chapter 1.)
Sons? Isn't that plural?

I can't comment on the rest of your question since I hadn't run across that before.

[Added]
Satan, or rather Miroslav Satan, plays hockey with the New York Islanders, and wears number 81. So he probably lives in New York City somewhere.
He's generally a pretty good hockey player.

ok....here are the references to the Morning star

Isaiah 14.12 and Revelation 22.16. I think you will find that the problem of Satan and Jesus both being called the morning star comes from translation errors.

“ How you are fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer,[a] son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!

16"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you[a] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."

Above verses both from the King James and it clearly only calls Jesus the Morning Star. This version is more orignal then ones such as the NIV where they somehow end up calling Satan Morning star too.

I can see why ppl are confused.

The movie stars do not live in heaven or hell. Stars are above sky is only our concept. Named in star or stone is also a concept. The morning star sometimes is our hope and also our desires. We used to toward light, that is our habits. Darkness doesn't mean bad, it is only a habit of concept. Actually; god and Satan are living in our heart. Put down all our concept, no god, no Satan at all. Times and spaces are only our concept.

Where is Satan called the Morning Star? Investigating your source also provides your answer. (And the notion that Satan lives in a place indicates a fairly basic theological understanding. )

Satan has never, to my knowledge, been called Alpha and Omega - except, perhaps by you.

You're playing in an area where you seem to lack some basic qualifications.
