Back to my illustration of employee and employer. So, this one employee you hired says he can run the company better than you can, and he makes the claim in front of all other employees working for your company. Now, if you fire the employee who questions your authority, what will other employees think? Will they not think that maybe he was right? Maybe, after all, you really don't know how to run the company well enough?
And the smart way is to let the employee control your company for a period of time. And you also want to give sufficient amount time, so that no one could say "well, you didn't give him enough time to prove his case."
And, it's true, God wants happiness for his people. That is why the devil will not exist forever, but only for a period of time - a period long enough for God to prove that He is the only Sovereign Ruler of the universe. (Devil's removal would parallel the employee being fired).
As for the subject of why God sacrificed his only-begotten Son for mankind's sin - it is too deep to be explained in a few lines. I would be glad to explain things via email if you wish so. (My email max.b@home.com)
