Haha! My sister and I had a conversation that was sparked by this thread. She concluded that, "God is like Dr. Who and can experience all of time which is kind of happening all at once. You know, 'wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey.'"
Me: "I think we are going to hell now."
Sister: "Yeah, but in the TARDIS!"

Lots of words typed here are straight from the heart, people!

Well, hello there..!
Funnily enough, the bible does say that good works are essential to both our growth and the growth of the kingdom of God.
Examples below:
The gospel according to Matthew 5:16 Salt and light - Let your light shine before all men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
The second letter of Paul to Timothy 3:16-17 Paul's charge to Timothy - All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teachings, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
Thank you for providing this bible verse, Jullianna.
Allow me to add to this: Ephesians 10 - For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Here are two more bible verses to supplement the verses given above:
The letter of James has an entire section dedicated to the relationship between good works and faith.
James 2:14-26 Faith without works is dead
Based on the evidence I presented above, we may assume that both faith and good works are necessary to build up the kingdom of God.

Yes, Julliana. God is with us, so why would we need to fear Satan, why should we care if he rejoices? He'll be utterly consumed in the end times anyway.
Satan is indeed dangerous and should have eyes watching him, but let us not bath ourselves in negativity, for the devil's laughter never lasts for long.
The letter of Paul to the Philippians 4:4-7 Exhortations - [SUP]4[/SUP]Rejoice in the Lord always, again I will say, rejoice. [SUP]5[/SUP]Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. [SUP]6[/SUP]Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. [SUP]7[/SUP]And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
May the grace of Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
