Will Satan and His Angels Be Saved?

Hi T____,

You ask: “Doesn’t the bible say God doesn’t help angels (that would include the devil, yes?)

The answer is, “No, nowhere does the Bible say that God will not save angels, which are also called “principalities and powers” which are constantly accusing us and attempting to “separate us from the love of God”.

Rom 8:38  For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Rom 8:39  Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The teaching of scripture is the exact opposite of what you have apparently been taught, and what I myself was taught while I was in Babylon for many years. The fact is that it will be “by the church” that these powers and principalities will be made to know the manifold wisdom of God, which includes His “mercy [which] endures forever”:

Psa 136:1  O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:2  O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:3  O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:4  To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:5  To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:6  To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:7  To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:8  The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:9  The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:10  To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:11  And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:12  With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:13  To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:14  And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:15  But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:16  To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:17  To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:18  And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:19  Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:20  And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:21  And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:22  Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:23  Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Psa 136:24  And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:25  Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 136:26  O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.

The Lord could repeat this Truth 26 times more and unless He gives us “eyes that see and ears that hear” we still would not perceive this Truth.

Now let’s look at what is the very purpose for our calling:

Eph 3:9  And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
Eph 3:10  To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

Satan himself is “cast into the lake of fire/white throne judgment” to be judged and chastened of the Lord (Isa 26:8-9). Judgment is the very meaning of ‘purifying the heavens’:

Heb 9:21  Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
Heb 9:22  And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
Heb 9:23  It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Heb 9:24  For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:

The “heaven itself” and the temple of God according to the scriptures are “within you”, which is where Christ and His Father dwell:

1Co 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

Paul is simply repeating what Christ taught us:

Joh 14:23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 

“The heavens”, like everything else, is not what Babylon teaches us. Heaven is the realm of the spirit of which all things are made. This link may clarify the matter for you:  What and Where is Heaven 2009

Heb 11:3  Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

The “war in heaven” spoken of in scripture and Satan falling from heaven is what happens when Satan and his lies and his doctrines are cast out of our lives:

Luk 10:17  And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us through thy name.
Luk 10:18  And he said to them, I beheld Satan as lightning falling out of heaven. (Darby)

Rev 12:7  And there was war in the heaven: Michael and his angels went to war with the dragon. And the dragon fought, and his angels;
Rev 12:8  and he prevailed not, nor was their place found any more in the heaven.
Rev 12:9  And the great dragon was cast out, the ancient serpent, he who is called Devil and Satan, he who deceives the whole habitable world, he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (Darby)

So the truth is that God created Satan as “the crooked serpent” so He would have an adversary, and through judgment and the destruction of the carnal mind of Satan, he and all of his angels will be reconciled through the destruction which is accomplished in the great white throne judgment/lake of fire/second death.
