In Christian theology the story goes that God created angels including Satan?

.

God did NOT create Satan !

God created all the angels, and "Lucifer" was the 'light bearer' Archangel.

Then came the earth/universe creation,Lucifer was a witness.

After that iniquity was found in Lucifer, the war in heaven, Lucifer ejected down to the earth

where he became Satan, then the temptation of Eve...

So what does Satan (aka the devil) do now ?

"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:" [ 1 Peter 5:8]

.

No, not within the confines of your words.

The very first creation of God, was His Son, Jesus.

The one that worked by his Father's side, for untold time,

and is and always has been the closest to God. ~ Prov 8

Jehovah did not have to order the angels to worship Him.

Your hypothesis, is wayyyy off.

You should have a few conversations with Jehovah's Witnesses,

then you'll find out what the Bible Really Teaches.

You started out credibly, then you lost your substance when you impuned your own opinion into it. If you want to worship satan just do it, you don't need approval, just satans approval and you will wind up living a hellish life with no chance for eternal life.

If you be thinking satan is so romantic, soon find out that he hates you, and does not love you and never will. He is purposed to one thing only and that is to destroy you and he will.

God made the angels first, and yes satan was an angel who was a good servant then he fell to jealousy because he wanted Jesus' place, and he tried to steal the mercy seat. Well, up to now, he is the only one sentence to burn from within and perish in the fires of hell. Everyone else still has a chance.

You know, Man chooses his own path, God allows him to, he has freewill and if he wants to choose satan, let him have his destruction for being a fool.

Long before man existed, God created his “firstborn” Son, who eventually came to be known as Jesus. (Colossians 1:15) In time, other “sons of God,” called angels, were created. (Job 38:4-7) All were perfect and righteous. However, one of those angels would become Satan.

Satan was not his given name at the time of his creation. It is a descriptive name, which means “Adversary; Enemy; Accuser.” He came to be called Satan because he chose a life course in opposition to God.

Feelings of pride and rivalry toward God grew within this spirit creature. He wanted others to worship him. When God’s firstborn Son, Jesus, was on the earth, Satan even attempted to get Jesus to “do an act of worship” to him.—Matthew 4:9.

Satan “did not stand fast in the truth.” (John 8:44) He implied that God was a liar, when, in fact, he was the liar. He told Eve that she could be like God, whereas he wanted to be like God. And through his deceitful ways, he achieved his selfish desire. To Eve, he made himself higher than God. By obeying Satan, Eve accepted Satan as her god.—Genesis 3:1-7.

By fomenting rebellion, this once trusted angel made himself Satan—an adversary and enemy of God and man. The designation “Devil,” which means “Slanderer,” was also added to this wicked one’s description. This leader of sin eventually influenced other angels to disobey God and join his rebellion. (Genesis 6:1, 2; 1 Peter 3:19, 20) These angels did not make mankind’s situation better. Because of their imitating Satan’s selfish ways, “the earth became filled with violence.”—Genesis 6:11; Matthew 12:24.

"Satan" admired God so much, he wanted his power. He was very well trusted and respected. Angels, like humans are not robots. They have a choice. God just has less patience with them, because they were created with the full knowledge of God. He used his trust to be deceptive, and became arrogant. So arrogant, he thought he could challenge God and win. He lost. Now, he's just a condemned being on borrowed time creating as much chaos as possible before his judgment comes.

As confidential this maybe explain, I shall.

first of all god is more complicated than an individual intellect to understand therefore Jesus tried to explain to humans the easier way the possible for them to understand,

Generally God and Satan, are the same person, God represents the good things and Satan represents the Bad things; and they both happen for the "Good" reason to teach people. Satan only punishes the bad people and doesn't hurt the good people who are under God's care.

God only helps the good people, and doesn't help the bad people who Satan plays "who's your daddy" with

To make things clearer to humans God and Satan agreed that "Satan should look bad to people" as a betrayer and total opposite to god. "somewhat equal to his power (1/3)"

and this explains why god didn't kill Satan, not only because God is so merciful, but Because Satan helps god by doing all the dirty work :)

The Bible only mention two (2) Angels. Saint Gabriel and Saint Michael. Satan is mention as the devil. Please note that, the term 'angel' and 'archangel' has been misused over the years. Angels are the ones in hierarchy not so called 'archangels'. The rest are an invention of the church or esoteric/mythical beliefs. Claiming they are seven as a number for power. Other claim four as in the four elements...Earth, wind, fire and water. In any event only Catholics mention in their version of the Bible one third, Saint Rafael in the story of Tobias... Satan was said to be in tradition an angel who according to some, wanted to be better and more powerful than God, and before that was the favourite of God. He lost the kingdom of God when he try to get all other creatures of Heaven to follow him and not God. He started a kind of revolt that is suppouse to be the beginning of sin in mankind. This is only a myth. Same as the woman is said to be before Adam and Eve, not mortal but created by God as the first woman in Heaven, Lillith. Saint Gabriel is God messenger. Saint Michael the gardian of Heaven. Prophets spoke directly to God either in a dream or in a vision, for is mention in the Old Testament that no mortal could see God in his full glory or he will die. That was the case of Moses. Who asked God to made Himself visible to him, and God told him to cover his eyes and look when He was on the other side...

>BEFORE he created mankind. It also says at one time Satan was Gods greatest admirier,first among the Heavenly beings and closest to God.

No it doesn't.

listen, are you having fun?

Yes, God created Satan as an angel originally, satan got vain, rebelled against God, took 1/3 of God angels down with him, and started doing evil out of his own free will.

happy?

satan did not do what god wanted

satan tried to take worship away from god so satan could get the worship and praise

satan was not following god's orders
