Lucifer defined
Masons often defend the name of Lucifer since the 33rd degree mason must swear his death oath of secrecy in the name of Lucifer & from the 1st degree, they are being trained to one day nullify the fact that Lucifer equates with Satan! It is significant that the study of the name of Lucifer should be posted!
There is no dispute that the name Lucifer, is the Latin word for the Hebrew “heylel”
which is defined as “brightness - morning star”.
It should be noted that the definition of the word is NOT "LIGHT BEARER!"
Arguing about the name "Lucifer" being a Latin word for “heylel“, is liken to arguing
against the name of James, which in Spanish is Santiago and in Latin is Jacob! Lucifer is
still the name by which the person noted in Isaiah 14 has been revealed to many and
exposed even more in Ezek. 28!
Prophetic scripture often uses duality, speaking of two persons at the same time as in
the many O.T. prophecies of Christ revealed as the O.T prophets spoke of other persons.
The facts are, the King of Babylon was never in heaven, & he never fell from heaven! But
Satan was both in heaven, and was cast down out of heaven!
Isaiah 14:12
How art thou FALLEN FROM HEAVEN, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down
to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
Compare this with what Jesus said:
Luk 10:18 I beheld Satan as lightning FALL FROM HEAVEN.
Furthermore, HOW is it possible, for the King of Babylon to think he could ascend into
heaven itself and make his throne above the stars of God since he was only a man?
Isaiah 14:13
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ASCEND INTO HEAVEN, I will exalt my throne
ABOVE THE STARS OF GOD: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides
of the north:
Scripture reveals that Satan can be inside a man & while Isaiah was speaking to the King
of Babylon, he was also speaking to the spirit that was inside of the man!
Satan was inside of Peter!
Matthew 16:23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an
offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of
men.
Satan was inside of Judas!
John 13:27 And after the sop Satan entered into Judas. Then said Jesus unto him, That
thou doest, do quickly.
Likewise, Satan was inside of both the King of Babylon in Isaiah, as well as the King of
Tyre in Ezek. 28!
Ezek 28 begins with a repetition of Isaiah 14, where the prophecy, speaking to the spirit
within the Prince of Tyre, is rebuked for wishing to exalt himself above God and sit on
the throne of God.
Ezekiel 28:2
Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine
heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the
midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the
heart of God:
Isaiah 14:13
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ASCEND INTO HEAVEN, I will exalt my throne
ABOVE THE STARS OF GOD:
This might, at first, appear to be a man! However, the prophecy begins to take a change
when it CLEARLY reveals that he was in the garden of Eden & that he is spoken of as a
CHERUB!
Genesis reveals that the only persons who were in the Garden of Eden, was Adam & Eve, God
himself, and Satan who deceived Eve!
Ezekiel 28:13-15
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the
sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the
emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was
prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. [14] Thou art the anointed cherub
that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast
walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. [15] Thou wast perfect in thy ways
from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
Finally, we see that Lucifer (heylel meaning “brightness - morning star) will have his
BRIGHTNESS defiled by strangers
Ezekiel 28:7-8
Behold, therefore I will bring strangers (Christians 1 Ptr 1:1 & 2 Ptr 2:11) upon
thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords (The Bible Eph 6:17)
against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness. (Rom 6:20)
They shall bring thee down to the pit,
Note that verse Ezek. 28:8 is repeated in
Isaiah 14:15
Yet thou (Lucifer) shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Ezekiel 28:16-17
By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence,
and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God:
and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. [17]
Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason
of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that
they may behold thee.
Although Jesus is the “Light of the World”, His name still remains “Jesus Christ of
Nazareth” not Lucifer as Masons wish to call him from Rev. 22:16. Although Jesus is
described as the Bright & Morning Star, that is NOT his name! His name remains JESUS!
However, Lucifer, in Isaiah 14:12, was not a “description” of the angel, it was the NAME
of the angel! Both “heylel” and the Latin word “Lucifer” is a fully recognized name for
the angel that was spoken to when the prophets spoke the words in Isaiah 14 and Ezek. 28!
Acts 4:10-12
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth
this man stand here before you whole. [11] This is the stone which was set at nought of
you builders, which is become the head of the corner. [12] Neither is there salvation in
any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be
saved.
