15. Question: Why would a loving God create the Devil and Demons when He knew that they would torment people on earth?

Answer: The Bible states that when God created the Devil and Demons they were originally angels. As angels in heaven, they chose to rebel against God and reject God. In doing so, God changed their appearance and forced them to leave heaven to rule over hell. Hell is created for all angels and humans who choose to rebel against God and reject Jesus Christ as God, Savior and Friend. Although God knew the Devil and Demons would torment people, He created them for many reasons. God was loving enough to give them life and choice; they chose to reject Him and chose hell. God will always give humans and angels the choice to love, serve and obey Him or reject and disobey Him and serve self and Satan. Isaiah 14:12-17; Ezekiel 28:15-19; John 5:18,23; John 14:15; 15:14; Revelation 12:9-12; 20:10.
