Here is one thing no body seems to know or have mentioned. Thus far, nobody mentioned it here, so I'll do the honors. I don't worship god, but I noticed thus as a christan. Why does god allow Satan to live? This is obvious. He is allowing Satan to live until he has all angels made up for in humans. He is waiting for humans to become saved and equal the number of angels that were lost in the fall. The Christian's duty is to become and make up for an angel.
