Does love the sinner and hate the sin means that Satan and demons are to be loved?
The reason being that sin is a happy fault and necessary to our growth. Listen to this hymn please.

Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
This statement has no qualifiers and since Christian tradition says that we are all sinners then it follows that all souls and sinners end in heaven. If God loves all sinners then this view must include Satan and demons and all of us as we are told that we as sinners have all been condemned and thus in need of salvation. It would also mean that non-believers, atheists and those of all the other faiths who are truly lost will also be saved by Jesus.
If that be the case then what this bishop says must be truth in that hell is a religious construct and a lie.

These logical inferences are quite clear and I would like to hear from any who can argue against our having to love Satan and demons and against the notion that hell does not exist.
Many say that God is love.
Scriptures also say that God hates sinners even in the womb as in the story of Jacob and Esau contradicting what was said above.
If God is love, how could he hate anyone including Satan and demons?
If sin cannot abide in God as tradition states and God hates, ---- and to hate is a sin, then does sin abide in God?
Unconditional love should mean that God loves all unconditionally including Satan and demons.
Is God’s love unconditional or does it come with conditions like us having to love, honor and obey him?
Is sin necessary for mental growth?
