Could Satan be saved if he accepted Christ?

[Nathan8906]

Is there any point in discussing this? The bible tells us that Satan will never repent (I don't believe he could if he tried) and will be thrown with his demons into hell.
One of Billy Grahams books, Angels, talks about this very topic...

My best friend has that same idea. "Can satan be saved?" The answer is "No". In Hebrews it says that Christ came not for angels, but for Abraham's seed.

Satan like's being in power, he would never repent. If he did Repent though, many ppl will be mad at him for setting them down the wrong path. I believe that Satan and his deamon's are gonna get beat up in hell when ppl found out all the things he did to then. LOL. Joking people, don't take this seriously.

"Man supposes and God disposes"
No matter how well versed in the bible or how much we
"know that we know", "for now, we see as through a glass darkly". God may yet hold some surprises in store, even for the elect.

Could Satan be saved if he accepted Christ as his personal savior?


I believe Satan could be saved if he accepted Christ as his personal savior and repented of his sin. I think God loves everything He created and gives every person a chance for redemption. Of course, this would probably never happen but angels were created with freewill also(?)

As bluntly as I can put it - No.
God created Satan, you're right, but Satan was an ArchAngel, and was not given the gift of Forgiveness. That's what makes mankind so precious, as we're the only ones who have that opportunity to be forgiven.

Understanding what Satan did is very important..
Satan was originally an Archangel, maybe the greatest there was, in Service to God. Eventually, though, he developed a prideful feeling, and tried to usurp God's throne. This cost him to be punished severely by God, and he cast him down into hell, along with a third of the angels in heaven, to suffer for all eternity for what they had tried to do. Thus, Evil was born into the world.

Going back to the topic of whether or not he can be saved - again - No.
