Is *scapegoat* that role? If not please school me and also, why would someone else fill that role?

Are you placing limits on gods powers?


If for some crazy reason God chose you to take over God role, would you continue to keep satan on the payroll or eliminate its position all together?

If there is only God's will, then where is choice? Remember God is looking for those who would willing do so if they were given a choice to serve. So if we can only know God's will as illustrated with the life of Adam and Eve pre fall, then there is no choice to be had. Choice did not enter the Garden till satan brought in with him. There was only oppertunity for choice Satan made that oppertunity avaible.
