WHO OR WHAT IS LUCIFER?
Isaiah 14:12 - Hebrew Old Testament - NEVI'IM (The Prophets)
" חוֹלֵשׁ עַל-גּוֹיִם. יב אֵיךְ נָפַלְתָּ מִשָּׁמַיִם, הֵילֵל בֶּן-שָׁחַר; נִגְדַּעְתָּ לָאָרֶץ, "
"How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, that didst cast lots over the nations!"
In the KJV (King James Version - and ONLY in the KJV) we read the same verse:
“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!”
More modern translations ... except for the NKJV ... have the proper translation of the word LUCIFER as “day star” or “morning star” instead of the Latin word "Lucifer."
LUCIFER literally translates from the Latin (because it is not in the original Hebrew text) (Phosphoros in the Greek) as "Light Bringer, Morning Star, Venus, etc." because this morning star ushers in the "SUN of God" every morning in the celestial kingdom. And allegorically, this light ushers in the Christ within each of us.
Now ... this will more than likely be the first time you have heard of these Truths so get ready for some enlightenment. The ancient civilizations already knew of the concept of the "Lightbearer" and "Lucifer" and they used this symbolism for thousands, and thousands of years ... to depict the "indwelling Krst/Christ" within all humanity.
This means that for thousands of years, until the rise of western theology, the concept of "Lucifer" was likened to the "incarnated Christ" who brings light to our darkened Souls incarnated, trapped and mummified in "matter/form" and "crucified in the bodies of 'matter/form'". The Greeks termed it to be "SOMA/SEMA" or ... symbolically, the body (soma) is a tomb (sema).
The ancient Spiritual Wisdom and symbol of Lucifer, the ancient symbol for "the indwelling Christ", was altered into becoming Satan and evil. Lucifer and the devil are not one in the same. Much in the same way as Venus ushers in the Sun of God each and every morning - preceding the sun in the heavens every morning.
Now read the verse again with MAN as allegorical reference ... in this case, the King of Babylon - the original allegorical character in this scriptural message.
"How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain."
~ Isaiah 14:12
It is the unseen Divine Soul of man (the christed one) who is eternal and has forgotten he is the Lord's begotten. When we follow our human ego rather than Divine Order and Law (God) ... we fall from the sacred mountain and fall to the dense state of matter (the lowest level of vibrational energy) rather than our eternal state of Spirit (our highest state of vibrational energy). Welcome to earth school.
Here we have the insertion of a "Christly Spiritual Concept" inserted into the Hebrew Scriptures where it never originally was. Don't believe it? Study it, research it, reference it.
Mankind, is the begotten son of god. We are one in Spirit ... one in consciousness ... and the microcosm of the macrocosm. Whether you believe in - creationism, or big bang ... everything came from something, and that something is in all things visible and invisible. The point of origin for ALL things leaves within those things traces of itself thereby unifying all of creation.
So, Lucifer (Lucent/Luminescence/etc) is the Bringer of Light, not the Lord of Darkness, as we have been led to believe. We should always be able to openly discuss any subject ... with an open mind for Truth. There are billions of opinions (mine included), but only ONE TRUTH. Let's continue our search to find it, and share it.
