GOD CAN REDEEM SATAN

GOD CAN REDEEM EVEN SATAN Several days ago, I wrote (and was roundly criticized for writing) that God could even redeem, grant salvation to, Satan, the fallen angel. Later while reading about Origen, the earliest Christian philosopher and theologian of the Second and Third Century, who was an African, from Alexandria, Egypt, I learned, acquired, some additional support. Origen is the author of the epic Christian work, FIRST PRINCIPLES, and other works. Origen was also "anathematized"--condemned by officers as an apostate -- three hundred years after his death by the Catholic Church in 553. I have read FIRST PRINCIPLES. I learned that Father Origen (undeniably a founding prelate of Christianity) is alleged to have written about the redemption of Satan by God. This fact probably contributed to his removal from among the church saints! And precipitated his denial. God created Satan as God created everything else, me and you, too. If "sin" is redeemed by the blood of Jesus Christ, as our faith says, and since Jesus is "the only begotten son of God," then, Satan, who too is a son of God, Job 1:6, can by the spirit and blood of Jesus, like us, also be redeemed, saved by God. I later analogized the Parable of the Prodigal Son to Satan to show that: as his earthly father had rejoiced to see the return of his long lost son, no less would our Heavenly Father rejoice to restore the stature of his long lost son, Satan. Luke 15:11-32. I know that this may be difficult for some to accept. We all have been taught many false doctrines, lies, myths about everything from black history, unto our relationship with God. Indeed, our identity as "gods," Psalm 82:6, has often also been misrepresented as "human." So, too, the admonition to "be perfect, as our father in heaven is perfect," Matthew 5:48, we are told does not mean what it says! It best befits us "gods," spirits, energy, rather than humans; for being created by God, we are subordinate only to God! God, literally has no competition; having existed from "everlasting to everlasting", Psalm 90:2. Satan, as some creeds falsely claim, is no actual competitor of God, nor is death, any true competitor of God, both being but mystical entrepôts to God in another dimension well beyond our comprehension. These are asserted facts, "Satan" and death; since energy is forever. We, whatever we be, are but additional elements in the eternity of Almighty God, who has no competition from any other person, place, or thing. "God," was originally conceived by ancient African people, who were the very first people, and who were the only people on the planet. Well before mutations, generations, cross-pollination of all others, we were here for many many millennia. To the ancient sages, God is and God was the ultimate ideal and the irrefragable pattern, template of all in existence, before gender, color, and before any other apostrophic personification of mankind. God preexisted" and therefore created what we know as time and space. God created all things, including matter, energy, time, space, life. I do not represent any of this to be true, much less the truth. But if it gets you to investigate the facts for yourself by research, comparison, and prayer, I will have done my job! Amen.
