Satan also know scriptures, so he must be sure to go to heaven like all these Christians are!
will hell be vacant?

What a coincidence! The other day a born-again Christian told me that it's much easier for Satan to go to heaven than a Jew. So, according to born-again Christians, to answer your question about a vacant her, don't worry, the Jews will be there. Of course, there is no such a thing as a literal Satan, heaven or hell. They are all concepts to name evil, ugly, and beautiful.

The scripture that you refer to, "For GOd so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him shall have not perish, but have everlasting life" John 3:16 is from the Holy Bible, which is His instruction book to us.
Satan has been to Heaven and has been cast out and sent to Hell, from where he operates on humans to make them question their salvation and tempts them with things to turn them against God. Hell will be full to the brim with "Christians" and non-christians alike!
Those that say Heaven and Hell are fiction are severely misguided. I have seen evidence of Satan and God's existence with my own eyes, and am truly a believer. His power is amazing.

Satan may know the Scriptures, but knowing them isn't enough to get into heaven!
You must CHOOSE to follow Christ, & that is something that Satan will never do!

Satan does not declare God as his Lord and saviour and does not believe that Jesus died for his sins. It takes more than knowledge of scripture and acceptance of God's existence to get into heaven.

Satan never actually left heaven. That was just Christian mythology based on misinterpretation of the Jewish scriptures. According to the proper interpretation of Jewish scriptures, Satan is an angel that always has been completely loyal to God. Satan only tempts humans because God ordered him to do so. Its just his job.
Of course, according to Jesus beliefs, Satan would not believe in Jesus either. Satan would be perfectly well aware that Jesus is neither "the messiah" or "the son of God". In fact, it would probably be likely that Satan created Jesus.

Well, just because you believe Christians are going to heaven doesn't mean satan's going to be there.

Nopsies. Satan was cast out of heaven by God, wasn't he? And not only Christians go to heaven. All good people go. Or maybe they don't. Only God can decide.
Peace and lurve.

Dear Mr. Tango
Sorry to inform you that you have tripped up on the word 'believe'.
It does not mean accept.
Satan believes Jesus exists, is the son of God, etc.
However, he does not conform.
And yes, he knows the Bible ............but only for the purpose of twisting it.
BTW The christian hope is not heaven. Psalm 37:29

You can believe in Jesus, and all the teachings of the church and still go to hell! It is like believing that John Kerry was the right candidate but still voting for Bush for some other reason! Believing does not mean salvation.

Absolutely not. Satan had his time in Heaven already. He knows what his fate is, and he is such evil that he wants to pull as many humans down with him as he can. Just to keep God from having them.
