Can the Devil be forgiven?

We can be forgiven because Jesus died for our sins. Jesus came to earth as a man, and lived a blameless life in order that he could do this for us.\n\nThe "our sins" there is pretty important, as is "as a man".\n\nThe devil is not a man, and therefore his sins have not been paid for by Jesus. Therefore he has to pay for his sins himself - which means that if he repents he still will not be forgiven.

No human can forgive sins. \n\nGod allows humans to forgive each other on acts that harm the rest of the living...however...some crimes, I reckon would not be forgiven by God, even if I have forgiven someone for doing them.\n\nWhy? Because I dont know what lies in peoples hearts. Only He does. So HE in His infinite wisdom, might chose to forgive or not to forgive depending on the persons sincerity.\n\nThis is why, when faced with a man who hurts you in some way, you must pray, may God forgive him, if you want his own good.

Absolutely.  We all let Him down at times.  He wants us to just keep coming back to Him.  I find the Catholic sacrament of reconciliation (confession) helpful in such situations.

if you come to terms with the non-existenance of god, then you realize that there is no sin.  there is no good or bad, there are only consequences that affect people.  \n\nknowledge is not from a devil, but something that liberates man from superstitious religious nonsense.

Absolutely not.   Pagan worship has nothing to do with the devil.  It is more about worshipping nature.

i beg to differ with the answerer, the only sin that cannot be forgiven is not accepting Christ, [contrary] the word itself says in mark 3;28 [plain and simple, then compare 1 john 1;9 except blaspheme against the holy spirit [only 1]\nacts 5;3-11\nmatt 12;31\nluke 12;10 woe unto the man/woman that does such a thing, that's why people need to be careful when answering or asking vain stuff concerning God, i would leae it alone if it is not positive, hell danger, besides 1 cor.2;16-13;12   eph 9;12 let this be your schooling, don't be offended because God said in james 1;5 and here we go, now ya know

Not always.  Sometimes it takes a lot of praying for me to become willing to forgive.  Best I can claim is that I keep trying.

That depends on how apologetic a person is. If a person is sincerely sorry about what he or she did, I can forgive. Many people however don't even bother to apologise. They suffer my revenge ten fold.

I don't think there is an actual "devil". I think the "devil" is a just a way for us to apply a bad face to evil acts. I think humans need God as humans have been worshipping dieties for tens of thousands of years and nearly 90% of the world believes in a diety in some form.

It was up to Hitler to ask for forgiveness for his sins.\n\nnobody else can do that for you.

I believe that you can ask for forgiveness when you see god, because the bible promises everlasting life.  Even in hell you live forever so technically you do not die.

I think you may be looking for a specific answer here, and I'm sure I'm not going to be the one to give it. \n\nYes, God can NOT punish us for being wrong, but he also CAN punish us.  He would rather not.  [If you were a Christian believer, this is where I would tell you that Jesus died for your sins and took that punishment upon himself, but you aren't looking for a religious lecture, are you.]\n\nSo, my answer is, "Yes, God can forgive us for being wrong."  and "Yes, God can NOT punish us for being wrong."\n\n****But he also CAN punish us.****
