Could I ask a question that I am really confused? God told us to be forgiving. But can we forgive Satan? You may say Satan did something really bad. But people did it too. We need forgive people, why don't we forgive Satan? I know Satan is Ghost created by God, have a free will. (I am a protestant who is already been baptized.)

Alex1939...Michael Lim...The very reason Jesus died was to destroy the works of the Devil, all sin is of the Devil....ALL SIN

.....1 st John 3:8...He that comittieth sin is of the Devil;...For the Devil sinneth from the beginning...For this cause was the Son of God was made manifested that he might destroy the works of the Devil.

..... 1st JOHN 3:9...Whosoever is born of God doeth not commit sin...For his seed ( the living word ) remains in him...Gods seed remains in him and he cannot sin....Not the written word but the living word which is the H.G...That Child of Promise....The letter is a killer but the living word is spirit and life...She brought forth a man child that is gonna rule all nations...The spirit of truth that is gonna be born in us...The H.G. The kingdom...No Eternal life in the scripture per se....Search the scriptures in them you think you have eternal but it is them that testify of me...The New Covenant that book that he wrote with his own blood,...The words of LIFE....But God told Daniel go thy way Daniel these words are sealed till the last days...Then the woman

will travail in birth pains...For that spirit of truth the man child..Gbu...Our new hearts and new spirits

Hi Michael,

I would ask the question: forgive for what?

Does someone who chooses to sin assume that satan is responsible and not themselves?

My understanding is that satan only tempts us with evil and doesn't cause us to do anything- people choose that themselves, so why would blame fall on him and not on us?

Gigi is correct , it's not our place to forgive satan .

Hi Michael, I believe that we are only asked to forgive other humans in Scriptures. I do not recall anywhere where we are asked to forgive fallen angels. The forgiveness we grant to one another is meant to improve human relationships and interactions, to heal and restore fellowship among humans, and for us to show mercy to one another as God has shown mercy to us and forgave our sins. God has not shown mercy or forgiveness to any fallen angels.
