This answer is late, sorry for that.
Genesis 3:1-7 Spite towards God by deceiving His creation.
Those verses never say anything about a devil. It refers to a serpent; a type of beast/animal. That same serpent was physically changed in the same chapter.
Genesis 4:8 Jealousy came from the devil, not God.
Assumption. Those verses never say anything about a devil.
Hebrews 12:22 Shows 1/3 of an innumerable company of angels rebelled with satan.
That verse does not show or say anything about fallen angels. All it talks about is countless angels gathering for a festival in the city of God.
Matthew 4:1-11 satan did his best when he tried to get Jesus to bow down. This proves satan wanted to be God, he knows the scriptures, whats written in them, he was there when they were written.
The devil, this ha-satan, was just doing his job as the accuser/adversary. He was sent to tempt Jesus, and had Jesus faltered, the devil would have brought Him up on charges before God. Ha-satan did the same thing in the Book of Job. You really should study Hebrew to see what "Satan" means, as it is a Hebrew term.
Revelation 12:10 satan could care less what the lost do, but let a "Christian" do something wrong he's in heaven telling God all about it.
Again, ha-satan is the appointed accuser/adversary, doing his job. Here's the interesting thing...the KJV originally translated that chapter with the devil being thrown down INTO the earth, not ON the earth. The old medieval concept was that hell was inside the earth. That has since changed.
