Good question! Apparently, from the scriptures, God tells us that Satan can't repent because of the idea that he HATES redemption/forgiveness ... Satan is trying to BE like God so why would he ask for forgiveness?
Apparently he goes on this little rumble until the end of the world, in which God comes back and punishes him, he loses each and every way ... we win.
Cheers
One real good thing is mind reading is only reserved for God alone.

What if by my nature I feel bad for someone in such a bad life. Could I die for his sins? As Jesus died for ours doing a favor beyond our own will we could do this for all fallen souls so to speak?
Please allow me to introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste
Ive been around for a long, long year
Stole many a mans soul and faith
And I was round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around st. petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a generals rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me lucifer
cause Im in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or Ill lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, whats my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, whats my name
I tell you one time, youre to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
Whats me name
Tell me, baby, whats my name
Tell me, sweetie, whats my name
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah

Well, According to the scriptures, God says that when Jesus died he died for ALL our sins so that no one else will have to do it! So that's an easy no, all you have to do to receive the gift (like any gift) is just accept it and tell him thanks, just say you're sorry and you want forgiveness of your sins
God tells us that the world is not waiting for him but that he is waiting for the world (to ask forgiveness and accept the gift!)
He also tells us that "the best thing a human being can do to another human being is give his life for them" (not to save them off their sins but physically save their lives by giving yours up, like a friendship sacrifice, you know, taking a bullet, etc...)
God is amazed at such people and even though we are sinners, imagine how loving he is that he sent his son to die so that you don't have to do it nor I ...

If you're confused, look at the username of the member who started the thread.
