Website design By BotEap.comThis story was THE proof that Satan used to be one of God’s good guys and then suddenly one day he decided to take over everything and knock God off His throne. Local boy goes wrong I guess. Well, Satan, whose term is never mentioned here, the former Bringer of Light, which is what Lucifer means, is now the Prince of Darkness and the rest is history.
Website design By BotEap.comWhat is really going on with this story. Did you know that you watch this drama literally take place multiple mornings and evenings throughout the year? Did you know that even to this day, this Lucifer is mistaken for UFOs or landing lights? Jesus said that he saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven as millions did then and billions today if you know where to look. It’s a very old story based on a very real observation of humans who made up a story about what they didn’t understand at the time.
Website design By BotEap.comFirst of all, let’s understand that Isaiah 14 is not really about Satan the Devil as he has become throughout the history of the Church. A scripture can never mean what it never meant, and this principle applies to Isaiah 14 with certainty. In the original Hebrew text, Isaiah chapter 14 is not about a fallen angel, but about a fallen Babylonian king, who had persecuted the children of Israel. Later in the context we see that he was a man who died. Now, we often hear that he was about a “guy”, but that’s mostly slippery slope. Metaphor maybe, but not a kind, where we can change a man into Lucifer and then Lucifer into Satan, never mentioned, and then all about how Satan came to be the God of this world, so send in your titles and be sure . with us. “In the Hebrew text, the expression used to describe the king of Babylon before his death is “Helal, son of Shahar”, which can best be translated as “Star of the day, son of the dawn”. The name evokes the golden brilliance of proud of the king’s dress and court (as much as his personal splendor earned King Louis XIV of France the appellation “The Sun King”).
{Craig Lyons-Bet Emet Ministries.} The King here was a man, plain and simple, and because of his arrogant attitude, he had to die like everyone else. Website design By BotEap.comLucifer means “light bearer” and is a term used by Roman astronomers to describe the planet Venus. Venus has always been the bringer of light, as it always precedes the morning sun. It is very bright and very noticeable, so that it has been confused, as has been said, with the landing lights of non-existent aircraft. It’s bright, but not as bright as the sun, of course. In mythology, humans noted this ‘god’ who preceded the sun and seemed to be running towards the zenith, which in astrotheology is called the place of the “Most High” or we are simply told today, NOON! Noon is the throne of God in astrotheology. terms. In Isaiah, this “Enlightener” went before God, the Most High – The SUN. The highest point in the sky where the sun or anything that shines off the planet can rise, from our perspective. When mythology and even the Bible speak of God as “the Most High”, one can see the deeper meaning that Sun worship hints at. The Bible promotes a similar but different form of Sun/Son worship, but one that has been lost. in most Christians today. Website design By BotEap.comThe planet Venus turned out to be an enigma for humanity. His job seemed to be to go before the morning sun and announce, so to speak, that he is leaving. But then, brilliant as it was and still is, it falls from the sky and descends to the ground, or in mythology, it seems to be thrown. Weird! Not knowing that Venus was an inner planet and that all the inner planets that revolve with the earth around the sun can never pass over us, from east to west as the outer planets and stars do, they had to explain it. Thus, we have the “fact” that this light-bearer, this Lucifer soon to be called Satan, MUST have become dissatisfied with just announcing the Sun God, so he MUST have said in his heart, “I will become the MOST HIGH.” “. Well that was it for him! The Most High, unwilling to relinquish his throne to this usurper, simply threw him back to earth, or apparently so when we look at the horizon. After that quite unsuccessful effort to dethrone the Most High God, we are left with him as Satan fulfilled by the Church, who embellished history and ta ta!… The mess the world is in is explained and it is not the fault of humanity for the most part. Forever more, we can say: “Satan made me do it.” You know, the bright morning star who tried to become God but lost. Website design By BotEap.comIt was above all the Catholic Saint Jerome in the fourth century who mistranslated the Hebrew metaphor, “Lucifer, son of the dawn”, as “Lucifer”, and over the centuries an evolution of ideas took place. Lucifer, the morning star, became a disobedient angel, expelled from heaven to rule eternally in hell, waiting mainly for all non-Catholics, but later for all non-Protestants as well. Now the Church had its Prince of the Power of Air, the Prince of Darkness, the God of this world, the Roaring Lion, the Fallen Angel, the ancient Day star (because if you know where to look, Venus can even be seen during the day )… went wrong. Website design By BotEap.comInterestingly enough, even Jesus, well, the Jesus of the Apocalypse who doesn’t look like the Jesus of the Gospels, identifies himself as the morning star, a term used as a central theme in many Christian sermons. Jesus refers to himself as the morning star in Revelation 22:16: “I, Jesus, have sent mine angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, and the shining star of the morning”. Website design By BotEap.comSo here we have it. Humans have never been able to explain why this bright “star” that we know as the planet Venus, preceded the morning Sun as if to herald its arrival, but then crashed to earth. Very strange! Let’s make up a story! This bright light, an Angel, the Bringer of Light and lesser deity compared to the SUN, really went wrong and decided to take down the SUN GOD, and later the SON of GOD, from the throne, which is where the SUN rises when it rises. becomes HIGHEST and MIDDAY. God, not putting up with that, simply threw Lucifer, now Satan or the Destroyer, back to earth where he belongs and humans can be stuck with him until the SON of the SUN God returns to destroy the works of the Bringer of Light now . blacked out Great story! In Isaiah 14, this haughty king was acting like this thinking that he could take Israel out of the picture, he lost, he was shot down and he died, just like that planet Venus every morning. So don’t mess with God’s chosen ones! 19 But you were cast out of your grave like an abominable branch, and like the clothing of the dead pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a trampled corpse. Website design By BotEap.comIn the true story of the true human king of Isaiah 14, we see that he dies like all mortal men and is frowned upon for thinking he could challenge Israel. In verse 19 we read, “But you were cast out of your grave like an abominable offspring, and like the clothing of the slain pierced with the sword, who go down to the stones of the tomb; like a trampled corpse.” 20 You shall not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land and killed your people; Tombs, corpses, pits, burials, and oblivion are all features of what happens to humans, not angels or mini-gods. Website design By BotEap.comInterestingly, Venus also rises wonderfully bright in the evenings after the sun goes down, and then falls back to earth as well. Perhaps Satan has just come out of the underworld of darkness to reach a peak and to let us know that he still rules it before going back an hour later after “Sunset” where even the Highest Sun goes every night, in Egyptian history, to challenge “SET” God of the Underworld. He makes you wonder about the stories about the Children of the Sun preaching to the spirits in “jail”. But that is another story. Website design By BotEap.comSo when you see Venus early in the morning when you’re driving to work and think that a train if it’s low enough or a plane looking for a place to land is coming right at you, know that that’s just the Bearer of the Light, Lucifer, later your archenemy Satan, announcing “But to you who fear my name, the Sun of righteousness will rise, and in his wings he will bring salvation; and you will go out, and you will grow like calves of the herd” Malachi 4:2. Notice it doesn’t say “Sound”. Think of the wings more like lightning bolts and you get the picture. That planet Venus, so beautiful, is explaining a phenomenon that we have long taken for granted as human beings feared such things and simply had to devise a theology to explain it. Now you can say that you also saw Satan fall like lightning from the sky… how cool is that!
