Hello echo! The fall of Satan is described in two distinct places of Scripture: Isaiah 14:12-21 and Ezekiel 28:11-19. And, of course, Revelation 12:9 and 2 Peter 2:4 have already been cited. Blessings to you, Nolan |

3 | Where in Bible is Satan's fall? | Rev 12:9 | echo | 23487 | ||
Thank you very much for your response. I have another question, though. Where is Satan referred to as Lucifer? And, where does it talk about him being cast out of Heaven on a lightning bolt? The reason I ask, is I have heard speakers trying to pin elements in Literature and Music as Satanic for speaking of "riding lightning" or sometimes even lightning in general. They profer that they have Biblical support for these claims and I just was wondering where. Thanks again for your response. echo |

Greetings echo! You are welcome! "Lucifer" is mentioned in Isaiah 14:12 in the KJV and NKJV. In the NIV and NASB, it is rendered as "star of the morning" or "Day star", which is the literal rendition of the word. For more on "Lucifer", please take note of a post written by Prayon on 06/13/01... "Lucifer is the English translation of the Hebrew word meaning "light bringer" or "shining one", sometimes designating the morning or day star. In Isa 14:12 the Babylonian ruler is compared to a "Day Star" (the NIV bible says morning star), which has fallen from heaven and has been felled like a stately tree. In the Christian Church this passage came to be connected with Jesus saying in Luke 10:18 "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven". It was here that the connection was made between Lucifer and Satan. Satan was in the Garden of Eden therefore he had to of already been on the earth when Cain and Abel were born. Satan cannot make us do anything that God does not allow him to do. He can only tempt us. Therefore he did not make Cain kill Abel but he was a definite influence on Cain. The King of Babylon was not Lucifer but he. too, was influenced by him. prayon" Luke 10:18 states, "And He said to them, 'I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning.'" (Matt. 4:10) I do not believe that Luke 10:18 and Matt. 4:10 are referring to the initial casting out of Satan and his demons from heaven, but to the fact that Satan was suffering much defeat. The power of Satan was broken, and the success of the 70 over demons was proof of it (Luke 10:17). That is what I believe that "seeing Satan fall from heaven like lightning" is referring to, not his initial casting away from heaven. As for Satan "riding lightning" or anything like that, there is no Biblical support for that. I hope this helps, my friend! Nolan |
