How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations! For you have said in your heart: “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God [angels]; I will also sit [rule] on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north [God’s government]; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.” Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit. (Isaiah 14:12-15)
And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (Revelation 12:7-12)
Lucifer, “Light Bringer,” rebelled against the Sovereignty and Law of God, thus he rebelled against God Himself. Desiring independence from God’s legislation (Rule), he tried to depose God and become the sovereign ruler of the universe. Great chaos, destruction and suffering resulted on earth when God cast him out from His Mountain (High Throne) as a profane thing. (Ezekiel 28:14-16)
In our contemporary Christian culture, the influence and impact of Satan’s rebellious spirit can still be witnessed by those who have eyes to see.
Many so-called Christians are just like Satan in attitude and behavior. They want to be like Christ without honoring His Sovereignty and His Holy Law. They want to rule their own religions and establish their own salvation doctrines and morals. They strive to have an appearance of godliness but deny God’s Authority and Commandments.
And just like their father the devil, they will be rejected and cast out from GOD’S presence unless they repent in contrition and sorrow and become obedient and submissive to the Sovereignty and Law of Almighty God.
