Two gorillas went to church and confessed their uncontrollable anger and abuse on their neighbors. One of them used to play hockey at a Baptist Private School. It's a beautiful game. The other played American football at a Catholic school. It's a beautiful game.  The first gorilla confessed at a Catholic church and the other confessed at a Baptist church.  The priests confirmed their forgiveness after they said sorry( to the Lord; that is-1st John 1:9) and asked them not to do it again and told them that God said you are to shake hands with your neighbour who happens to be the other gorilla's relative. But, it doesn't really matter. God is watching us from a distance. The truth is God has the power to forgive even Satan but the only reason why Satan is Satan is because he refused not only forgiveness but relationship with God through true repentance. Read Romans 8,9 and Jude.  Our goal is not to chastise Satan since even a human servant of evil is not ours to Judge. See Matthew 7 and Jude 1:9.  Our job for a 100 years approximately while being able to experience conscious life is to ensure a sufficient amount of salt and light to safeguard community. It is one of the key bequeathals to your children's children so that they can enjoy the other gift that shall be a 500 horsepower non-hybrid sports car or truck in a reasonably safe and commodious but dying and nonsensically polluted planet with dying coral. But, you never know. This is so while there are people young enough to still have faith; that is to have a hope for something unseen( Hebrews 11) and to manifest its evidence in some tangible realization like a healed ligament that could have prevented someone attending the state championships for track and field.
