Let me clarify what I mean...God reveals himself and his planned
destiny for mankind through his providence. But Satan has a destiny
for mankind too to deceive and confuse. So what would that be called?

So we have "divine providence" but what would Satan's "providence" be
called?


Divine providence. God created Satan, omnisciently knowing all Satan's
plans in advance, and hence they are part of his omnipotent plan. He
created Santa too, not to mention Santana.

He shouldn't have bothered with the latter.
