Is Lucifer humanity’s savior? Lucifer, the Light Bearer and THE MORNING STAR, is called, erroneously, the devil, serpent and Satan. He is pitted as the arch enemy of God, who tempted man to do evil and whose fate lies in a pit of fire. All very interesting, and all very wrong. If the ‘faithful’ would just do a little research they would find that Lucifer is not evil incarnate, nor is he the enemy of man and God, at least the true God. I sometimes, well most of the time; wonder if anyone actually reads the Bible. Here are some quotes with some phrases with some highlights:
“For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened. And ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
And the Lord God said, Behold, this man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever…”
And, of course, the so called God placed guards, Cherubims with flaming swords, to keep everyone away from the tree of life. Aside from the question, who is the US, God is referring to, it is clear that God said that man has become one of us, gods. It is the serpent who gave man wisdom and God who kept man from completing the transformation. It is the serpent, who the faithful call evil, interesting to say the least.

The WAKING GOD TRILOGY explores this issue. One of its main characters, Mantrella (a.k.a. Lucifer) offers to Andrew and his friends a truer picture of the genesis and destiny of man. Is the Light Bringer really evil? Was God just pissed off because man would no longer sit around and sing praises? Was it really capital G, God, that banished Adam or a lesser g, god that did the deed? What did Jesus really mean when he clearly said, “DID I NOT SAY YE ARE GODS.”
What follows are some interesting excerpts to ponder. Discover more in the TRILOGY.

It is said of the Pentagram, “If an apple is cut in half across its equator then the pattern of the seed is revealed, a perfect five-pointed star or pentagram…Five, comprised of the feminine number 2 and the masculine number 3, is the number of harmony, of the union of opposites and of marriage. It is also the number of humankind because of the five points of the extremity of the human body. When Eve gave Adam the Apple of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden, therefore, it was not just a piece of fruit she was offering, but a potent symbol of wisdom.

Eating the fruit that contains the pentagram resulted in a profound awakening for Adam and Eve…they realized they could make their own choices…The pentagram is the sign of Venus, both the planet known as THE MORNING STAR, and the Goddess.” (Secret Signs and Symbols, Nozedar)

“There are no passages within the older parts of the Hebrew Scriptures where Satan is portrayed as an evil devil - the arch enemy of God and of humanity. At most, he is described as a henchman who carries out God's evil instructions. There is no dualism here between two powerful supernatural entities: an all-good God and an all-evil Satan. God is portrayed as performing, directly and indirectly, both kind and evil deeds. When:
plagues are to be sent, or
a great genocidal flood is created to kill off almost all of humanity, except for Noah and his family, or
Onan was killed because he practiced an elementary form of birth control, in violation of a cultural tradition, or
Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed because its residents were abusive to the needy and to strangers, or
Lot's wife is turned into a pillar of salt because she looked the wrong way,
it is God who does it. In essence, the ancient writers of the early Hebrew Scriptures looked upon Jehovah as performing both good and evil deeds. A good indication of this is found in:
Isaiah 45:6-7:
"...I am the LORD and there is none else. I form the light and create darkness. I make peace an create evil. I the LORD do all these things." (KJV)
or in Job 9:22-23:
“... [God] destroys both the blameless and the wicked. When a scourge brings sudden death, he mocks the despair of the innocent." (i.e. laughs at the suffering of the victim)
or in Lamentations 3:37-38:
"Who has commanded and it came to pass, unless the Lord has ordained it? Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that good and evil come?"
During the last three centuries before Christ's birth, the portrayal of Satan underwent a major change. The Zoroastrian / Persian dualism concept appeared in Jewish writing: God was now looked upon as wholly good; Satan as profoundly evil. History was seen as a battle between them. No longer was Satan simply God's prosecuting attorney, helper, or lackey. Satan, and his demons, were now humanity's greatest enemies.
Author G. Messandé 1 theorizes that from the middle of the 5th century BCE until 53 BC and later, the Jews were on particularly good terms with the Persians. From the latter's religion, Zoroastrianism, the Jews picked up a number of concepts: the immortality of the soul, angels, and Satan. Of the 3 main divisions of Judaism (Essenes, Pharisees, Saducees) in the 1st century BCE, the Essenes seems to have focused the most on Satan.

    Very good article. I'm a Luciferian and a Gnostic, believing Lucifer and Watcher Angels to be friends of humankind. They rebelled against Demiurge and brought us gifts of knowledge, that we might be free of the machinations of Demiurge and realize our inherent divinity. These angelic beings mated with humans, and their offspring, Nephilim, became as Gods and Daimons of this world, divine like their angel-parents, but also at times fickle, jealous, etc. like their human ones. - Hans

Before I go on to discuss the topic I will like to let you know that you are a unique being with unique qualities. You are wonderfully made by God the creator, loaded with potentials...
Did you read the blog entry below about Adam's transgression? Now read this: How does Jesus define righteousness? It it obedience to the 10 commandments? Is it some sort of formula that we have to follow?...
Have a Godly time!

As Christian's we learn that the just shall live by faith alone, so what is faith and how do we get it....
You do not have to live in bondage to things that you have done in the past nor things that others have done to you. Set yourself free through none other than through the Lord, Jesus Christ....
