Is Lucifer and Satan one and the same?

Answer 1

None of the above, although some cults believe Jesus and Lucifer are brothers.

Jesus is the Son of God, God incarnate. Lucifer is a fallen angel. Lucifer would like you to think he's equal to God, though.

AnswerIsaiah 14:12

Lucifer, son of the morning." This is the only verse in The Bible that mentions Lucifer. Although most Christians consider Lucifer to be Satan (the devil), there is little biblical justification for doing so. In this verse "Lucifer" refers to the king of Babylon (Nebuchadrezzar?) and Lucifer (the light bearer) is also called the "son of the morning" or morning star. The only other person that is referred to in that way is Jesus (Rev.22:16). Does this mean that Lucifer is Jesus? technically speaking yes if you read the bible in latin jesus does call himself Lucifer (Lucifer is Latin word meaning bringer of light or enlightenment and a fallen angel, from heaven to earth orso used to mean shooting star) The other mentions of Lucifer you have quoted are the wrong translation from the Tanakh Hebrew which uses the word Ha-Satan meaning the Accuser (who refused to bow mankind accusing it of not being as good as Angels (which means the Sons of God and the messengers of God). Its basically a mix up in translation from different languages.

AnswerA couple things that might shed light. The only translation that names Satan is Lucifer is the King James Version, and that was simply an error i.e. mistranslation. Also Satan in the text is called "Morning Star," and Jesus "Bright and Morning Star," a small hair to split but something to consider none the less. Also in the context of Isaiah it is abundantly clear that we are talking about the King of Babylon in colorful language, not taking a crash course on,"Who is Satan?" "Who is Satan?" is not within the scope of Isaiah.

Answer 2

• Definitely not. Jesus is the almighty creator. Lucifer is a limited creature. Jesus is perfect. Lucifer is unimaginably wicked. Jesus is the savior of the world. Lucifer wants to take as many to Hell with him as he can.

Answer 3

Well, basically yes.

Generally, evangelical Christians believe that Lucifer was the most beautiful and powerful angel in Heaven, but he became prideful, and God cast him out of Heaven--along with one third of the angels, his followers.

Lucifer means bright star, but he became a deceiving dragon, so he is no longer called Lucifer. He is now called Satan (or the devil).

Another answerWell, no.

Satan is the serpent, the snake, the dragon ...

"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." (Revelation 12:9 AV)

He was a murderer and the father of lies, (Jesus is speaking)...

"Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." (John 8:44 AV)

So we see that the dragon, the serpent, the devil and Satan are the same person and was a murderer from the beginning.

Lucifer, on the other hand, is the king of Babylon...

"4 That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say... 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!" (Isaiah 14:4,12 AV)

As the king of Babylon, he may well be an angel similar to the princes of Greece and Persia that Daniel's instructor was fighting...

"Then said he, knows thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the Prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come." (Daniel 10:20 AV)

Lucifer will not be buried...

"Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, [and] slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned." (Isaiah 14:20 AV)

Here's why...

"... therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee." (Ezekiel 28:18 AV)

The person being referred to was not a murderer from the beginning...

"Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee." (Ezekiel 28:15 AV)

If one was a murderer from the beginning and the other was not, then they can't be the same person.

The guy in Ezekiel was in the garden of Eden which is why so many people think he's Satan.

But there were more than three beings in the garden of Eden.

Namely, there were at least two cherubs (cherubim)...

"So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life." (Genesis 3:24 AV)

The guy in Ezekiel was one of them...

"Thou [art] the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set thee [so]: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire." (Ezekiel 28:14 AV)

There's nowhere in the Bible where Satan was walking among stones of fire.

So, two different persons.
