“satan walked away. so did 1/3 of the angels.”
I don’t think Baptists believe that Satan and the angels have salvation in the same sense that humans do. Their deal is different.
No, you’re right, we don’t believe in the salvation of Satan or fallen (or unfallen!) angels. ;~)

Judas, Cain and Abel, Adam and Eve, Esau, there are many others that knew God, knew what he wanted and turned away from him. Satan and the angels, they had a one time shot is all. They had to choose, no go backs. We on the other hand, have the ability to repent and be forgiven. Satan and the angels lived in heaven and knew without a doubt what they were giving up, so no do overs. My point is even those who have partaken in the heavenly gift, if they should fall away, their end is worse than if they never knew God at all. Adam and Eve absolutely had heaven, they had Eden and no original sin. They walked and talked with God.
