DOES GOD LOVE SATAN?........PART II OF DOES GOD LOVE THOSE IN HELL?

On our other discussion regarding the Love of God for those in hell I noticed that the question came up regarding whether or not God loved Satan? It seems like a hard question for some to address, but it would be nice to see what we all think on the subject.

DOES GOD LOVE SATAN, DEMONS AND THOSE ANGELS THAT WERE CAST INTO HELL?........

YES or NO?

Brother Anthony,

Can you elaborate on your 50/50 answer? Are you saying God loves Satan part of the time and hates him the other part?
Brother Watson, Brother Watson of course God loved Lucifer and the the other angels but they rebelled, remember! All children of disobedience will feel the wrath. The difference in the angels and us is they (the angels) were above us in creation but not when it came to choices of God or evil. We that were made lower than angels didn't have the knowledge or could not come before the Lord as they were able to and see Him face to face. They had what we are going to get. Their repentence isn't acceptable from God but ours is. You tell me why and you know Satan may have tried but to no avail. Why do you think that is? We've been made to believe we shouldn't hate anything but we'd better hate what God hates and love what He loves. It's really not that hard to see or understand, praise God.
That's double mindedness and God is not that. Read James 1:8. I don't believe you are a double minded person. I understand that it's hard for some of us to think that God hates because we look at that to mean He is hate also when He isn't. Hate from us is bad but from God it is justice and just my Brother in Christ.
God said Jacob I love, Esau I hated, in Malachi, God talsk about the reason why He hates Esau, Esau was a man who built his own kingdom after selling his birthright and losing his inheritance

in satans 5 I will, he is declaring that he will build his own kingdom even above the creator, so I would say, God not only does not love satan, but actually haes satan
That tends to make sense because it would appear that God hated Esau because he sold his birthright, which could be compared to selling his God-given soul for personal gain.

Satan on the other hand, took it much further by thinking he could rise above our Creator with the expectation of becoming greater than God Himself.
Hate is a word that is in scripture! Love is also a strong word Brother Watson. Read Ecclesiates 3 and see that everything has it's time.
See this is what James means in James 1:8. That would mean that God is double minded and He isn't at all. To say God does not love Satan and then in the same breath say God loves Satan is double mindedness to me.
I know brother Anthony, it is hard to imagine God not loving everyone, but his wrath doesn't seem to be an expression of Love whether it's towards man kind or Satan.
To just answer Yes or NO, I give you an emphatical NO! This is a war between God and Satan. I mean Jesus said to love your enemy and feed them if hungry and cloth them if they need it (paraphasying I know) but that enemy is another human that can repent but Satan is an enemy that is trying to kill us all and can never repent. I know I can't love him and don't think my Father in Heaven does either. If I'm wrong, He'll let me know.
At the moment I don't have anyone here on earth trying to kill me, just Satan. Now to answer you question hyperthetically as given, I do love any PERSON trying to kill me because I am born again. I know better than those that are non believers. Satan is not a human being and one that is never going to have what he had before. The difference for me is that I pray for those still lost in darkness but I never pray on Satan's behalf.
EW Ministries, it was a good idea to make a separate post of this particular discussion. I asked this same question on another post and was just curious to know how others thought on this subject. I see that the answers thus far are split or evasive.
