Yeah I remember being taught in church about forgiveness and love. And then taught about Lucifer being kicked out to hell forever, no chance of redemption. It didnât make sense to me, even as a kid. I think I asked a Sunday school teacher about it and got a nonsensical rationalization.
Probably because the whole Lucifer Story is apocryphic and was pierced together/made up by church teachers. It doesnt fit with the message of the New Testament one bit.
expanding on this, even the existence of eternal hell is fairly controversial among theologians. this is from the page on [Christian Univeralism]:(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_universalism)
The first clear mention of endless misery is to be found in a work from 155 to 165 AD by Tatian.[18] According to theologian Edward Beecher, in the first four centuries there were six main theological schools and only one of them advocated the idea of eternal hell.
What I was taught was that because Lucifer and his followers were literally in heaven or wherever and knew God personally, they essentially should've known better than to rebel. On earth, hardly anyone has perfect faith, so they get some leeway for not knowing better.
That's the extent of my knowledge on that and I don't even believe it, but that's what I was taught
It's just nonsensical rationalizations all the way down.
At last, a greentext that doesn't seem to be made up for internet kudos.
actually I don't think OP is really Lucifer

Lying? On the internet?
Sorry, kid. The game was rigged from the start.
If I remember correctly, the reason Lucifer rebelled was because god made him subservient to man.
Can't say I blame him really.
