If Satan had always existed and was part of God's plan for creation, his existence defies and hinders God's providence of restoring the world of peace for thousands of years.
Who is the one to subjugate and eliminate him?
This is the true issue. Christianity upholds that Jesus liquidates all the sins of the past and the future that was to come, but even Jesus lost his physical body to Satan even though he was able to resurrect and bring a foundation for spiritual salvation.
Yet, every human being since has still been born with the original sin in his blood lineage. Who will be able to finally accuse the one who brought sin to earth?
If Satan was not part of the creation of a perfect being, then where did he come from?
Satan caused our original ancestors to fall away from the true purpose of God which was to develop heaven on earth from the outset.
If Satan was part of the creation, then there is no way to get rid of him and have complete salvation. This would create dualism forever. People thus conclude that a world with two opposing purposes would continue forever. Fortunately, this is not the case.
The reasons for Satan's accusations
The original will for the ideal world of creation was never fulfilled due to the Fall. However, since God has absolute authority, even though the whole world might change, He can never change.
Even though the devil took Adam, Eve and all creation away from God, the Absolute Being must subjugate Satan, who was originally an archangel, naturally rather than by force.

Although God exists, it is as if He does not when we witness the chaos in the world. He has to re-establish His absolute authority. God cannot strike first. The good God cannot strike the evil Satan.
Why is it God is tied from taking out Satan in one stroke?
Because if He was to do so, that act would end up also extinguishing Adam, Eve and the creation who are linked to him. Through Adam and Eve obeying Satan's will instead of God's, they became connected to Satan in blood ties.
Thus, destroying Satan also destroys the ideal sphere of love. That would be against God's own principle.
This is why God is prevented from doing so.
As absolute Lord, He must absolutely fulfill His will and do as He says would do. Despite Satan's arrogance, attacks and tenacious persecution, still the Lord endured throughout history in order to recover His established principles.
Nobody has known of this almighty God.

If God cannot destroy Satan, why did He allow Satan to infringe upon human beings? Why did He let His children be sacrificed and crushed under Satan's foot?
Why doesn't He stop the suffering Satan causes humanity?
Why doesn't He stop the suffering Satan causes humanity?
Why was God unable to exalt His full power to such an extent that humanity does not recognize His existence?
This is a serious question. The truth is, because humanity did not follow Him, He had no people, no nation, no world which to govern freely.
Therefore, no one has qualified to officially be recognized by Him as a true individual, family nation or world.
If such an individual, family nation or world was established, then God would be able to directly strike the evil people, nations and world.
Before this time, because humanity suffered through following Satan's will, to work with humanity, He had to face Satan's accusations of His children and work indirectly through angels and central figures.
Only this way will lead to goodness, and only then will God have His authority.

Will you completely conquer Satan in your life?
Wasn't event he almighty King of Wisdom immobilized by Satan's accusations?
It is the same situation with the President. If his citizens decided to march and demonstrate against his laws, can he just cut off their heads for their behavior?
Even the almighty God is unable to make this move. Any government official found to be at fault, they would be fired in an instant.
This is why your actions should not leave any condition for Satan's accusation.
This is a matter of life and death.
How you develop that protection is extremely challenging problem in your life of faith.
Since the human race are connected to Satan's, lineage, false love and will, God cannot not be present during those circumstances. This is the problem.
What did Satan take away from God in the beginning of human history?
Satan trampled on God's pure love and crushed God's true life, love and lineage. We should always be aware of these facts and protect ourselves.
Satan was created originally as an archangel without any trace of the fall.
Satan goes to God and accuses Him, "You are the almighty, omnipotent, all-powerful God, even you have to solve all the problems according to the principles you set up even though I became evil. Even though I became Satan and brought about the Fall, You must abide by the rules and principles which You set up. Isn't this true?'

I am going to explain why we cannot proceed on our way without loving our enemy.
It is very important for you to know this truth,
Although the archangel fell and accuses God, God must still observe the principles He has established because He is the absolute God.
Although the archangel fell and accuses God, God must still observe the principles He has established because He is the absolute God.
No matter how the archangel behaves, God is compelled to rule over His creation according to His rules and principles He laid down.
Therefore, God is obliged to act in the same manner to the archangel before and after the Fall. This is why Satan taunts God and tells Him, "You are supposed to love me until I'm perfected and beyond."

Adam was supposed to originally, command three archangels. In turn, they were to obey and love him absolutely.
As long as the heavenly law demands absolute obedience and submission, Satan is not able to do as he pleases with the laws and principles.
Even though he does not absolutely obey and submit to God, he knows that eventually he has to follow the same principle
Even though he does not absolutely obey and submit to God, he knows that eventually he has to follow the same principle
If Satan violates the principle and God's law, then He can remove him.
It would be the same as the president exercising his authority through the constitutional law. If it is not in the constitution, the president is not able to act as he wishes.
The author of the Divine Principle, the Completed Testament, dealt with such serious issues such as the existence of God and why He did not eliminate Satan as soon as he fell.

In the book of Job, you may ask why God was so powerless.
I had to understand all this. How serious I was to do so! I have placed myself on the gallows and struggled for these truths at the risk of my life. We have to retrieve our original life.
If you are not familiar with the Book of Job, Satan accused God that Job was a faithful servant because He gave him everything.
Satan challenged God that if He took everything away from Job and made him suffer that he would curse God in return.
God gave Satan everything he asked for and told him he could take Job's life. Why would the almighty God respond to Satan?
God cannot respond with the same behavior as Satan because God is the essence of love for others.
God is the essence of truth.
God does not try to subjugate Satan with His mysterious, creative power. God makes Satan yield voluntarily to His will.
Satan has used promiscuous sex, selfishness and so on and brought ruin in the world in order to prevent the world from returning to God.
How many people indulge in incest in America?
A father left alone with his daughters will molest and sleep with his daughters. Because of the degradation of morals, the father's brother sleeps with the mother or a son sleeps with his mother.
American's lifestyle is closer to that of the animals. Therefore, Satan laughs at God and says, "How do you even think about having an ideal world or world of love under these circumstances?"

God abides by the law
What kind of being can you say God is?
God is like the mind of the universe; the universe is like His body.
However, the devil has plagued this body.
Satan has stolen the powers of the heavens and thus also controls the universe. What does God need to do in order to digest this problem? God is unable to strike Satan with force.
The essential quality in the process of creating the universe was love. Thus, God maintains that principle, even if there are those that violate it.
Therefore, God unceasingly maintains His original standard He set up for creating, for the sake of restoring the fallen universe back to its original purpose of love.
Thus, fulfilling the ideal of true love. If He is unable to accomplish this, then He cannot regain His authority as the Absolute Being.
This point has been so frustrating for God.
The Fall established a wrongful bond of love centered on Satan who took the position of parents. Much interpretations have been said about the fruit of good and evil.
The descendants of Adam and Eve have carried on Satan's love through blood ties. Satan's life, false love and blood lineage has passed on through our ancestors unceasingly. The only relationship of love that can pass sin through the blood line is a sexual relationship.
Thus, as long as the root of the fall, false love, is not rooted out, it remains.

Satan is the enemy of love.
Satan fractured God's dream for an ideal world of love.
The servant forcibly took away the King's daughter and violated her. Thus, she lost her position as the Lord's daughter.
Thus she had to be driven out of the King's establishment. This wrongful act was an derailment from the original track of the great principle of heaven and earth. This fact cannot be denied.
God cannot achieve the original ideal of an ideal world, unless He is able to love the children of evil just as much or even more than His own children.
Satan asserts, "I have fallen and become who I am. My lineage even revolts against you,. Yet, don't You God have to uphold the way of the heavenly law?" This is where God is caught.
Satan accuses God further saying, Since You are the substance of truth, love and principles, You cannot change for any reason, although I am fallen, don't you have to practice Your own principles which You established?
"Therefore, as a Being of principle, You cannot bring your children to the original world without loving the fallen angel. The plans you placed for the archangels before the Fall do not allow Your children to enter the heavenly kingdom unless they and You Yourself love me. Although I fell and caused many calamities, You should love me or else You cannot be the true God and Your son and daughter cannot be true children without loving me."
