This was actually my friend's query. His uncle told him that Satan must've been sinless because it says in the Bible that it is virtually impossible to approach God when you sin. But since only the sinless can approach God, why does it say it the Bible that Satan approached God (in the case of Job) and not the other way around?
@strongestwillsurvive,
Why would you expect logic in a fairy tale?
@strongestwillsurvive,
I guess that means the Bible is a load of crap. I've fornicated with unwed women. I guess I'm screwed.
@strongestwillsurvive,
Oh as a footnote the whole idea of an all knowing god having as the head angel a being that would rebel on him started me as a young child to reject the whole fairy tale of this culture religious faiths.
Second my young but even then logical mind wonder how a being that was suppose to be that close to god would not know that any insurgent would be pointless against an all knowing and all powerful god.
You said: that it is virtually impossible to approach God when you sin.
That's your first mistake (believing this statement)
How else were sinners forgiven, if they did not approach God?
