talking about salvation and the supposed WORK for Faith of free willers ....so you've gone on a tangent
Aside: we are rewarded for what GOD does through us
Augustine: “But I commend not the works of my hands, for I fear that when thou examinest them thou wilt find more faults than merits. This only I say and desire, despise not the works of thy hands. See in me thy work, not mine. If thou sees mine, thou condemnest; if thou sees thine own, thou crownest. Whatever good works I have are of thee".

If you could give scriptures to back up you claim that "satan doesn't know he is sinning".
Aside: I assume Satan is much, much smarter than I, yet even I know I sin. Got to think Satan has figured out whether he has sinned.
Definition of Sin: Anything going against what God commands. Thus, Satan has to know he has disobeyed God and therefore sinned. Now, like some on here, maybe Satan has his own dictionary.

If these scriptures didn't exist you would have a valid argument.
1 John 3:6-9 He that abides in him does not sin.
1 John 5:18 Whosoever is born of God does not sin.
That's just a small sample.
No go run to your greek and OSAS apparatus to deny those scriptures.
You throw darkness unto your own path because you cannot comprehend the light.
