Thinking now.. when God talked to Abraham to tell him what He was about to do. He said "I will go down now and see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry against it that has come to Me; and if not, I will know.” Why would GOD have to come down to see if He knows all? Yet He does..

The unanswered question. And, the question never asked?

Was it good for God's plan for man to fall?

What was going on with God providing the Cross before man was created? (Revelation 13:8)

God created man knowing full well that man would fall.
And, His plan has been to glorify His name before all!

So, I ask.

Did God plan for man to fall?
Was it to prove something to Satan and his angels?

I don't believe that it was God's plan for man to fail, rather God's plan for salvation went into effect after man sinned.

Yet, it says that Jesus died on the Cross for the sins of the world before man was yet created!

It was given power to wage war against God’s holy people and to conquer them.
And it was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation.
All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not
been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world.

Revelation 13:7-8

Satan is lord of this world,still.
He roams about like a hungry lion seeking souls to devour,still.
