Isaiah 55:10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returns not thither, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Thus, with these important truths and facts about God in the forefront of our minds, let’s tackle the issue at hand: “Why God Created Lucifer” As God contemplated the issue of creating intelligent life, He saw that there would be certain risks associated with granting the freedom of choice.
Some intelligences would use the freedom of choice to walk contrary to God, and others would use it to walk in harmony with God. Thus, as the issue was mulled over in God’s mind, the issue of risk loomed large. Not only was it a mere possibility, but because God knows the end from the beginning, there were known risks that surfaced.
And thus, God would be faced with the prospect of making a well thought out, and deliberate decision to create a perfect being who He knows for sure will give trouble. And thus, the question before God was would He move forward with the decision, even if there are definite, and known risks.
Isaiah 45:5 I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: 6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else. 7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
