As I understand Protestant theology, God created Satan and knew what Satan would do. He also created Adam and Eve and knew what they were going to do. Unless God intended for Adam/Eve to 'fall', why do Protestants place them in a situation where he knew they would fall? Or better yet, why did God create Satan, knowing all the trouble he would ultimately cause?
If God is all knowing, and all powerful then it would seem like either he made a mistake, or he intended that sin and failure be a part of our life. I think everybody agrees that he doesn't make mistakes, so why do Protestants think sin is good for us? Yes, I know......Protestants don't believe sin is "good for us", but I don't know how else to word it. Apparently there is a 'good' purpose for sin.......I'm just curious what value Protestants find in sin.
