“Man sinned in the Garden and homosexuality is a sin that some CHOOSE to commit, this is Satan’s plan. “

Who created Satan?

Texas Gator:

God created a magnificent angel known as Lucifer, the Light Bearer, but gave Lucifer free will. Lucifer misused that free will to rebel against God together with Lucifer's followers among the angels. Some believe that the issue was that God had created angels to serve members of the human race and that the rebellious angels were too proud to do so. They responded with "Non serviam" or "I shall not serve." They were driven from heaven instantaneously and simultaneously.

No, there is no specific Scriptural account that I know of but the foregoing us a venerable tradition.

IIRC, there are Scriptural accounts of numerous angels and archangels: Gabriel at the Annunciation, Raphael the Healer in the Old Testament, many ranks of angels as a heavenly choir celebrating the birth of Jesus, for three examples.

If YOU choose to prolong this exchange, I will be back after errands.

Who created Satan?>>>

For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving (1 Tim 4:3-4).

Satan wasn’t thankful, was cast out of heaven by St. Michael and since then satan’s goal was to ruin man.
