Did Satan retain his Physical Beauty after sinning?

If they know what they are messing with, then yes, they are sending an invitational message.

Assuming demons are fallen angels, why do people say certain objects like masks invite demons into your home? They may not even resemble what we could see if we see the spirit world.

A Christian understands that physical is death and spirit is life. It's the Gospel message of Christ. Anything that promotes physical beauty or desires of fleshly beauty is not of God the Father (of spirit) but of the creator god of the physical.

The sword from Jesus separates them both.

It's the intent of the person involved. If you're looking to bring Satan into your home and testing the waters, you're asking for trouble. It doesn't take much of an invitation for Satan to step in. He doesn't need an engraved invitation, a nod in his direction is all he needs to get his toe in the door. He does enough with us even without us inviting him, why mess around with his belongings? It doesn't matter what it is, what it looks like-- if it is in his realm, let it alone.

So you believe soul sleep? Heaven may be temporary, but I don't think we sleep when we die.
No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. John 3:13

There are numerous passages in the OT that tells "the dead know nothing..." It is clear the dead have NO AWARENESS.

What makes you think fallen angels are demons?

Rev 12:7 Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, 8but he was defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. 9And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. 10And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying,

The angels that rebelled were cast out of heaven.

Now notice that there is NO transitional language between vs 9 where the angels are cast out of heaven and the very next thing is an angle proclaiming “Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God. 11And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death."

YOU, me and everyone who was or will ever be born are those who rebelled in heaven.....

Demons are a byproduct of the Nephilim who were genetically modified beings that are not totally human, not totally animal. Gen 6:4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward when the sons of God came into the daughters of man and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown.

The lie of evolution is so deeply ingrained in our society that it creeps in even to those who believe scripture. The legends of highly advanced societies (Atlantis etc) are based on this period of time because Adam and Eve were BRILLANT ( Like Einstien/DaVince level brilliant) their children would have been considered geniuses. Yeshua told us that the end would occur and it would be "as in the days of Noah" There are 2 things that we can do today that we have never been able to prior (in recorded history) The nuclear bomb and DNA manipulation..... They did these things before the flood.... this is why Adonai speaks that the constant intent of man's heart was evil....
