@benweb1105 It's all a conspiracy, built on shaky grounds.
Where was ANY paperwork for this world that Adam, Eve or Satan signed? Any evidence why so many angels would be so ignorant, gullible or unhappy in heaven, to believe Satan for one minute? And nay corroboration why he got to keep so many powers?
But Romans 13:1 tells us temporary powers are put into place, by God, and subsist at His indulgence. Which IMPLIES He is taking a direct INTEREST in them, and even perhaps guiding them.
It sure was played that way to many ordinary laypeople. Who's 'free will' was considerably less, in terms of being applicable and tractable.
Even compared to those in Romans 9:12?
And if He didn't want them modified and transferred, let alone, corrupted, by men, then He had innumerable options to counter that.
But at the root of this, is - what sort of 'detestable' things DO move Him to action, fairly directly, and what do not?
Because hiding some loot from Jericho begins to pale in some comparisons, here.

@benweb1105 Some are demonstrable.
See pendulums and macro-superposition experiments. Or large scale entanglement, quantum code key sharing, and so on.
And we are now potentially applying human frailties and behaviors to a text that is often claimed to be transcendentally and divinely guided and stewarded, here.
Or so your claim appears.
For a being who can see the future, of course, other options tend to be available.
Including for what the Body of Christ is mean to be? Be it allegorically, or otherwise.
And of course, nothing prevents the transcendental divine actor from opposing those 'corrupt authorities' either.
Some of them maybe with initially honest intentions, as well?
It's been argued many of Torquemada's Inquisitors saw some temporary torment now, to their victims, as preferable to the implied eternal alternative they risked, for instance.

@JamesJones-mm2nm Hardly. Did you read Matthew 10:37? Luke 14:26? Romans 8:30 and 9:12, and Jude 1:4, or Matthew 7:14?
What about Matthew 5:18, too? Bad luck for many gay people, and witches (so accused) too, historically, then?
Were they often treated almost the same? Including in terms, of capital, punishment?
And how dare slavery be allowed to backdoor it's way in again, thanks to that verse, and Leviticus 25:46? Even due to 'misinterpretation'?
A loaded weapon is a loaded weapon. There are times they really should be disarmed.
And we are to love the God of BOTH the Beatitudes, John 7:9, Numbers 21:6 and 2 Samuel 24?
Even when they look hardly the same?
