Before his fall, Satan was known as Lucifer, which means "light-bringer" or "morning star." He was originally created as a beautiful and powerful angel, but pride led to his rebellion against God. As a result of his defiance, he was cast out of heaven and became known as Satan, meaning "adversary" or "accuser."
