His Disciples didn't know, and I don't believe that Satan knew either. Otherwise, why would he willingly play a part in God's plan of salvation?
Satan has no choice in the matter. He can only do what Christ allows him to do.

Then, how come His own Disciples didn't know? Luke 18:33-34
They could not receive the Holy Spirit until Jesus Christ was glorified. (John 7:38-39)

Christ became mortal to redeem humans from the penalty of sin.
How is that an explanation of what we were discussing? Are you changing the subject?
You asked, "Then, how come His own Disciples didn't know? Luke 18:33-34."
I answered your question.
Only Christ knew what His true mission for coming to earth in the form of a man, was. He's the ONLY man ever born whose purpose was to die for ALL of humanity.
And?
And they certainly did not know that Christ was dying for anyone's sins either and Paul tells us why! 1 Corinthians 2:6-8 KJVTrue. In the following two Scripture verses, we see that the Disciples knew NOTHING of Christ's imminent death and resurrection.
Luke 18:33-34
"And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken."
Did grace and truth come through Jesus? Did Paul preach grace and truth?
And both, you GM and Jamie are wrong because Satan does not exist but only as a concept to illustrate the evil inclination in man.
We're in the but now where the righteousness of God without the law is manifested!Jamie, for heaven's sake, why don't you understand? I have said this many times and shown where the text is to be found. Grace and Truth did come through Jesus but in the form of command to endorse the old way to listen to "Moses" aka the Law. Please, read Luke 16:29-31 and join the true Jesus' way!
Well, you have your right to your opinion, even though it's wrong.
And this after he was aware that the Prophets of the Most High had written in the gospel of Jesus aka the Tanach that no one can die for the sins of another! (Jer. 31:30; Ezek. 18:20) It means that by this statement of yours GM, you are simply implying that Jesus was not a Jew but a Greek Hellenist.
:up: 1 Corinthians 2:14 KJVWell, you're not a Christian so I don't expect you to understand Christian concepts.

You have to obey Jesus.
