Episode notes
Angels vs. God and Satan
- Angels are powerful creatures, but they are not all-knowing or all-powerful like God.
- Satan, a fallen angel, fully rejected God and hates everything God loves, including humanity.
Why Satan Fell
- One theory suggests Satan fell from pride, refusing to serve God.
- Another theory posits envy, perhaps due to God revealing his plan to elevate humans.
Irrevocable Choice
- Similar to humans after death, fallen angels cannot repent after their fall.
- Their choice is irrevocable, highlighting the importance of human choices in life.
