Subject: What do you base this on? |
Bible Note: Scott: You wrote: "The first 2 i'll just touch on as I myself lean towards the antichrist. The 3 opinion will be in more detail.Lets start by looking at who Lucifer is , he is called the king of Babylon Is.14:4 and he is said to be a man verse 16. Now if Lucifer is Satan how come he is called a man? nowhere in the bible that I know of does it call Satan a man. So this rules out Satan being Lucifer." Only verses 12-14 are addressed toward Lucifer, as the being standing behind what is going on in Babylon. Again, Lucifer is no more the actual human king of Babylon in Isaiah's time than he is the human king of Tyre in Ezekiel's day. Lucifer is Satan, the one who has fallen from heaven (verse 12). In Ezekiel, Lucifer is described as a cherub -- an ANGEL. Lucifer is Satan. Your analysis is flawed. You discount that Lucifer is Satan because part of the prophecy is directed toward a MAN, and then you accept the "antichrist" theory and say he is only LIKE a cherub, rather than an actual cherub like the prophecy directly states when referring to Lucifer. Go with what historically has been held by the church. Lucifer is Satan. --Joe! |
