Where does Satan, Morning Star, Iblyis, Lucifer, Beelzabub, The Devil fit into all of this? Is it not a being of pure evil since it's billed as the exact opposite of, in direct opposition to, God

But God brought about its' will (good) by using the instrument evil. If good can come about by using evil then evil can't be that bad. Which brings about the contradiction that God doesn't do or use evil when you just stated that God USES evil like a instrument to bring about (good) its' will
