The devil and Satan we talked about were originally called Lucifer, which means "bright star" or "son of the morning". From Ezekiel 28: 1 1- 13, we can find how apt his name is to him. The prophet said this to him: "The word of the Lord came to me and said,' Son of man! Take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre (Satan) and say, Thus says the Lord GOD, You are all ready, full of wisdom and completely beautiful. 12 describes in detail the beauty of Lucifer before the fall. Lucifer was created. 15 points this out. From the day you were created, all your actions were perfect. Later, I found injustice among you, and only God himself is eternal. Only God himself has eternal life, which means that only God is not created. All other creatures are alive because God created them. All life created is different from God's life, and it is the kind of life created. The work of God's creation began with the creation of a large group of angels, one of which was Lucifer. As a creature, he should worship, serve and obey his master. The original intention of creating Satan is not to make him rise up and betray in the future and become the enemy of God. Section 15 confirms this, "Everything you (Satan) have done since the day of creation has been completed." Not only did he do everything perfectly, but in 12, he also said that he was full of wisdom and completely beautiful. Lucifer is the cleverest of all angels created by God. God made Satan an archangel to manage the affairs of angels. Although all power comes from the throne of God, God still gives Lucifer some management power. God created him to take on some responsibilities. God revealed to us his intention to design and create angels. In Ephesians 1:2 1, we will find that they have different levels and have their own responsibilities (Chinese and United Bible are "rooms" here, and the original text refers to the list of "principals, powers, powers and territories"). Satan is not only the cleverest but also the most beautiful. In Ezekiel 28: 13, the prophet described his beauty to us. The prophet compared Satan's beauty with all kinds of gems. He said, "All kinds of gems are ruby, tourmaline, diamond, beryl, agate, jasper, sapphire, emerald, ruby ..." It's really colorful! However, the GEM itself will not shine. If you take the gem to the darkroom, it will stop emitting light. The beauty of a gem lies not in itself, but in its ability to refract ordinary light into beautiful light! When God created Lucifer, he gave Lucifer the ability to reflect the glory of God, and this ability is stronger than other creatures. The beauty shown by the highest angel is not born to him, but given to him by God when he was very young. He just showed this beauty. God is the light that really makes the road look beautiful, and nothing created can fully show the glory of God. Because we want to praise God, we have musical instruments. Lucifer also had exquisite drums and flutes, so the prophet said, "You have exquisite drums and flutes, which were prepared on the day you were created." Because of Lucifer's beauty, he can sing the glory of God like a musical instrument in a musician's hand. He doesn't have to find someone to play a musical instrument to present a hymn. He is a hymn himself. Through Lucifer's praise, glory and worship of God, we can see the incomparable beauty of God from him, and no other creature can show the glory of God in this way. So what is the responsibility of the created thing? That is to obey the man who created him. The created thing must know that it was created from the hand of God, and the status of the creator is higher than that of the created thing. But when we read Ezekiel 28: 16 and 17, we can see that Lucifer gave up the status of the creature and usurped the status of the creator. You are proud of your beauty, and your wisdom is ruined by your glory. God created such a beautiful and brilliant Lucifer, showing his extraordinary ability, but Lucifer did not respect the God who created him. Lucifer abused the wisdom given to him by God. He said: "a wise man like me should be a god;" A beautiful person like me should be worshipped by others, not by others. " The generous gift that God gave him became his trap. He gave up his rightful place and betrayed God. He was originally created to show the glory of God, but he gave all this glory to himself. Questioner, you are wrong. God did not give Satan the task of placing temptations on the earth, nor did God create the devil. He wants to degenerate into a devil. Today, there may still be people following Searle's old path. Perhaps he was proud of his education, intelligence and achievements, but he didn't realize that all these were gifts from God. He may be proud of his rich material comforts and respected position in some fields, but he doesn't see clearly that these are also generous gifts from God. When a man separates himself from God, he is repeating the old road of Lucifer and walking in sin. People can also get rid of this sin, and the only way is to accept the personal help of Jesus Christ. In this way, he was reborn and had a new personality, and his selfishness could be replaced by caring for others. He also got rid of his pride and was able to see his relationship with God again. He will see his humbleness and realize that he should rely on God the Father. May God show you that you are the child of the devil's father. You are not Hill, but a little devil. There is a big difference. God is willing to lead you out of the devil's family and into his kingdom. Are you willing to accept him as your personal savior?
