God is Perfect where all of His creation of Angels and Humans were given Free Will to make decisions. God gave all:
God, because He is perfect, will not violate the gift given to Angels and
Humans to stop their own decisions that can be against God. There was no reason
for Lucifer and the Fallen Angels to choose to go against God, but God because
of His perfect nature would not violate His own character of perfection to stop
them.
Lucifer and the Fallen Angels did not think there would be any consequences
because there was no rebellion, rejection, and sin against God before the event
that would have caused God to give consequences and judgment. God s judgment
began with a plan that was going to deal with the Fallen Angels over time as God
will not allow the sinful Fallen Angels to stay in His Presence and the results
of the rebellion had to be shown so that perfect judgment could be done. God,
with respect from this author, was having to start perfect justice that never
had been required before the rebellion.
The Earth was part of the Kingdom of God before the rebellion of Lucifer and the
Fallen Angels ( list refs). The consequences on the Earth because of the
rebellion caused the Earth to go into a state of foreboding darkness covering
the entire earth with water, Genesis 1:1, as God did not create the Earth with a
foreboding darkness and void. In Genesis 1:2, God did a restore on the Earth,
which many Biblical Scholars believe that was showing to all the Fallen Angels
and God s Angels that Lucifer did not have the power to create anything.
There are Biblical Scholars that believe, as this author, that there are
scriptural references that hint of something alive was on the Earth before the
destruction of Genesis 1:1 because the Earth became void. The scriptural passage
of ( look up later } states that Lucifer would not release his prisoners which
infers a time not given, where we know that Lucifer was in charge of everything
before the rebellion.
The fall of Adam and Eve is different than the Fallen Angels, as Adam and Eve
did sin, but they did not rebel against God. God, because of His perfection of
giving humans free will just as the Angels have, did not violate their free
choice, knowing ahead of time their mistake would happen. Suffering and death
were introduced because of Adam and Eve, but God already had a plan to restore
all humans, that would choose God, to be in a future perfect environment with
abundant life, purpose, love to be received and given and fellowship in
recognizing love given by God which is worship.
