Did God cause Satan to Rebel?

[JackrabbitSlim]

Hello. I think it fair to state upfront, I am not a Calvinist. I believe in faith alone in Christ alone for salvation. Also, I think it fair to state I do not know a lot about Calvinist teachings, beliefs etc. So, please, if what I say is wrong about the belief of Calvinism, please correct me. That being said, from what I understand-and this might be an oversimplification, or, not an accurate statement-Calvinism does not teach free will-at least salvivficly. I am genuinely wondering, if there is no free will, did God cause Satan to sin? Thank you in advance for your answers.

No. The Archangel Lucifer took it upon Himself to try to take the Throne of God away from Jesus.
Scriptures plainly reveals that Lucifer was made perfectly. It also teaches that sin was created in Lucifer. And that Lucifer is the FATHER (creator) of Lies.

All the inhabitants of Heaven have free will. That is How God made them.
