Subject: The Real stature of Satan

Bible Note: There is debate as to wether or not Isaiah chapter 14 is, in fact, refering to Satan. I have come to understand that some believe the prophet is referring in whole or in part to the king of Babylon [Isaiah 14:4], and still other information points to Messianic prophecy; specifically the verse which we use to derive refference to Satan, Isaiah 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven,
O star of the morning, son of the dawn!
You have been cut down to the earth,
You who have weakened the nations!"

See 2 Peter 1:19 "So we have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts."

See Revelation 2:26 "He who overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds until the end, TO HIM I WILL GIVE AUTHORITY OVER THE NATIONS;[Rev 2:27] AND HE SHALL RULE THEM WITH A ROD OF IRON, AS THE VESSELS OF THE POTTER ARE BROKEN TO PIECES, as I also have received authority from My Father;[Rev 2:28] and I will give him the morning star."

Also, see Revelation 22:16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star."

The context of Isaiah 14:12 seems to indicate prophecy of Christ. This would eliminate reference to "Satan," in verse 12, and would likely place verse 16 in reference to "the King of Babylon."

Food for thought.
