Even as God's character is reflected in His Law, I believe that God does not kill. He has the power of life "in His hand" and he gives it and takes it…but not by killing; simply by dying as the consequence of Sin, we return that which belongs to God, back to God. So, the act of "taking" there is just claiming what is His after it's exhausted the physical body. To kill Satan would have been anathema to His being; not just in abhorrence of destroying but also in executing perfect justice…for Himself, us, and Lucifer. We should be thankful: the same Grace he showed Lucifer is the same Grace that redeemed us without our own effort. Amen!

You realize that in the Hebrew the word Lucifer is not in the text? The context is very different.

I bet this guy believes that Adam and Eve ate an apple in the Garden of Eden in Genesis 3, too.
