The History of Lucifer (Satan) Part 1

The things I am going to write here are derived from years of study in this particular field.  For me to have to prove every single thing I write would take volumes.

I can throw out this example:  1+1=2 You can take that on faith or you can go through the entire mathematical proof of why that is true. No really!  You can read the proof in the Principia Mathematica ...The link will take you to volume one of three volumes...the first volume is only 674 pages....So, you can get back to me in awhile...or just take it on faith that 1+1 actually does equal 2!

In this field concerning the study of Satan...I really have done the reading in very esoteric books and ferreted out knowledge from arcane libraries.  I have read the papers from professors in Theology and Archaeology and as we will discover...some papers from some physicists also.

I am going to start at the beginning with you and on the way we are gonna take some rabbit trails...so don't get lost and "Keep Up!"

So hmmm...the beginning.  When you think about it the very term itself implies the concept of "time".  Except we need to start before "time" became a thing....before the "Big Bang"....which was actually the beginning of "time".  So, let's call it "pre-time".

Before "time" existed....God existed.  It was during this "pre-time" that God created Heaven...then He created Angels and the other entities that exist in Heaven.  Remember, this is before God created the universe that we now live in!

When God created the Angels he created them to be and/or fill a specific rank in hierarchy.  It would be kind of like being born either a General or a Private in the Army.  And there were no promotions.  If you were created to be a General then you were always a General.  If you were created to be a Private then you were always a Private.  Additionally, you didn't aspire to be anything greater than what you were.  Angels were created for specific purposes and they were created to serve God's purposes.  It would be incorrect to say they were happy to serve...they were created without having the ability to choose...without a will.  So, serving God is just what they did...and they did it in "pre-time".

Now, I do need to amend the above paragraph slightly.  There was actually one angel at least who was created with the power of choice.  His name was Lucifer and we know that he was the type of angel called a Cherubim.  We also know that he was not the only Cherubim.  This is an artists imagination of how the scriptures describe what a Cherubim looks like:

 

Ezekiel 1:5-11New American Standard Bible (NASB)

5 Within it there were figures resembling four living beings. And this was their appearance: they had human form. 6 Each of them had four faces and four wings. 7 Their legs were straight and [a]their feet were like a calf’s hoof, and they gleamed like burnished bronze. 8 Under their wings on their four sides were human hands. As for the faces and wings of the four of them, 9 their wings touched one another; their faces did not turn when they moved, each went straight forward. 10 As for the form of their faces, each had the face of a man; [b]all four had the face of a lion on the right and the face of a bull on the left, and [c]all four had the face of an eagle. 11 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above; each had two touching another being, and two covering their bodies.

Cherubim had specific duties.  The scriptures describe Lucifers job as "the annointed Cherub that covereth".  The scriptures never say what he covered and to guess would be just a guess...no one on Earth could know the answer.

We also know something else about Lucifers duties.  He reigned on Earth (after it was created) as the supreme being for a very long time.  But to discuss that we will need to delve into some AstroPhysics.
