One true God, the God of all, the creator of all and every realm. The living Lord God who I have seen (albeit its glory) and who answered my prayers and showed me the true nature of death and more.

The thing is for every creature they are endowed with free will. I have never seen satan(unless evil spirit counts as satan or devil which is not) but it is said it was an Angel before his fall from grace.

You see satan decided to be satan on his own will. The same with people who choose evil than good. The created sufferings caused are not God's fault. They are the direct result of man's actions and decisions. If God can be faulted then He is not holy and if He is not holy all things will not submit to His will, but all things submit as I have witnessed.

I believe God doesn't know things in advance. God knows everything before everything even began in the beginning. The end is known even before it started. But that's my expression of faith alone. In practice it is seen as if God knew things in advance indeed. That is an expression of my experience.
