Why Lucifer can't benefit from Redemption?

the question you should be asking is, does Lucifer want to be saved? being saved means he has to stop whatever evil he's doing. Does he want to do that? i don't think so. i think he wants to continue to be against God, and therefore he doesn't want to be saved

Hi khayam, Where in the Bible do you find that Lucifer and his angels are God's creation from fire? I have never heard that said before and would like to know the source. I do not take the Bible literally but find much that is good in it, especially the teachings of Jesus. Blessings.

First, where in the Bible does it say that God loves His entire Creation equally? It doesn't say that! I don't mean to say He doesn't love angels, but it never says anything about Him loving all His creation equally. In fact, Jesus said that God loves all His creation, even a tiny sparrow that falls from the tree does not go unnoticed or uncared about by God, yet "So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows." Matthew 10:31 This shows that your original premise could be wrong. Second, Lucifer, now Satan, was in Heaven with God. He knew God directly, and still rebelled -- and has tried to deceive other angels as well as all people since our creation. All this while knowing God, and knowing also that he really cannot win against God. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that any angel has a chance for salvation: the angels in Heaven have no need of salvation, and Satan and his followers have no desire for salvation. And last, the Bible teaches that even the angels have longed to look into the mystery of salvation: "Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into." 1 Peter 1:12 God has a special relationship with humans, and that is clear from studying the Bible, carefully, from start to finish, with your mind open to God to give you understanding of it.

You are operating under the assumption that God has not offered a second chance to him or is willing to forgive him. It could happen, but it won't because "Lucifer" is too proud and believes he can win and be like God. This is why it would not happen, not because God would not allow him to repent, he could do it right now, but he won't.

I daresay our heavenly father has given Lucifer a chance to repent. I'd like to draw on an analogy. Most of us believe the prisons are places for the unlawful to be restrained in, and to be kept to protect society from their ways. However, it actually does not work that way. Inmates who have a proven good track record are usually paroled early, despite what they have done. It could be said that the prison is a place for the bad and evil to rehabilitate themselves and, in this context, repent. Now, here is where I apply this analogy. If you have read the book of Revelation, you will find in Rev 20:7-9 (New American Bible) that "[when] the thousand years have passed, Satan will be released from his prison. He will go out to deceive the nations at the four corners of the Earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them to battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. They invaded the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the holy ones and the beloved city." It could be said that God imprisoned Satan for 1000 years to give him a chance to repent but, like everyone said, he's too proud and probably brazen to accept that and instead he continued waging war against God (whatever name you'd want to call Him) and the faithful.

My opinion is that Lucifer had no excuse to sin, he was created perfect, possessing knowledge of good and evil and of God's will. Man, on the other hand, had no prior knowledge of good and evil, and was tempted by Satan to seek that knowledge by eating of the fruit of the tree.

Lucifer was the highest angel, and attempted to exalt himself above God. So God gave him a place as the king of liars. If Lucifer were to admit to God that he is the father of lies and ask forgiveness and accept Christ, God would forgive him.

I agree with OutSideIn's #2 point. Redemption is available to all, but has to be claimed.
