Around 6000 years ago, Lucifer organized and led a coup attempt to seize control of the Universe. He managed to recruit a third of the inhabitants of the Morning Star (angels) into his army, using
LIES to
CONvince them.
Revelation 12:3-4
12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
12:4 And his tale (of lies -
John 8:35)
drew the third part of the "Stars" (
ch. 9:1)
of heaven (into his army), and did (cause them to be) cast to the Earth (for their treason against God): and the dragon stood before the woman (Israel) which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born (Christ - second coming).
Lucifer's lies were unprecedented, which is why they took the weaker-willed angels by surprise. No one on the Morning Star had
EVER lied before Lucifer invented it.
John 8:35-36 (8:44-45 KJV)
8:35
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 speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father (inventor) of it.
8:36
And because I tell [you] the Truth, ye believe me not.
Lucifer's failed attempt to overthrow and murder God, so he could take God's Place as The King Ruler of the Universe, is a well-documented
FACT.
Isaiah 14:12-17
14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the Morning (Star)! [How] art thou cut down to the earth, which didst weaken the nations!
14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart,
I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the North:
14:14
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like (take the Place of) The Most High.
14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
14:16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, [and] consider thee, [saying, Is] this the person that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
14:17 [That] made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; [that] opened not the house of his
prisoners?
Lucifer and his angels (those who fought with Lucifer against God) had to be taught to keep the twelve laws of heaven;
THE TWELVE COMMANDMENTS; ten of which were given to Moses on Mount Sinai (
Exodus 20:1-17), and the eleventh and twelfth, which were given later-on, by Jesus; one of which God demonstrated and still demonstrates, i.e. “love your enemies into being good” (
Matt. 5:43-48).
Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in Our image,
and teach him to be like Us (i.e. teach him to be good instead of sinful/selfish/evil): and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
The title Satan is Hebrew and means “the Opposer” (God's adversary). When Lucifer became darkness and evil, he became the d/evil-
LIAR, opposing everything that is truthful and good (
Matt. 19:17). The great red dragon, devil and Satan are therefore descriptive terms Lucifer
earned as a result of his
criminal actions. A dragon uses its tail/tale to draw its victims into its clutches, and everything that comes out of its mouth burns its victims. A
perfect description of lying Lucifer/Satan/the devil. He is also referred to as being a serpent, because everything that comes out of his mouth is poison.
Lucifer's coup attempt had to be put down by Prince Michael, known here on Earth by many names, including The Messiah/Christ, (the Anointed One/Heir to the Throne –
Dan. 10:21,
Dan.12:1-4,
Col. 1:14-15,
Rev. 5:1-9), and His Army, the heavenly host. When the rebellion against God failed and the war ended 6000 years ago, Lucifer and his followers were banished from heaven
to the Earth for their
TREASON against God.
Revelation 12:7-9
12:7 And there
was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon (Lucifer); and the dragon fought and his angels,
12:8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out to the earth, and his angels (you -
Luke 9:55) were cast out with him (
Matthew 25:41).
Luke 9:55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said,
Ye know not what kind of spirit ye are of (
Rev. 12:7-9;
Matt. 8:22).
Matthew 7:11
If ye then, BEING EVIL, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him?
Matthew 25:41
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into Everlasting Fire, prepared for the devil and his angels (YOU that do not DO God's Will):
The Prison-Reform School
Not executing Lucifer and his angels, outright, created quite a difficult situation. After making a study of the situation, God and the elders of the Morning Star decided to create a prison reform-school, far enough away, where, for the chosen period, they could safely try to teach Lucifer and his angels to be good, whereupon they could come home (
Deut. 28:1,
Rev. 2:28,
Sura 29:6).
Lucifer and his angels (those who fought with Lucifer against God) had to be taught to keep the twelve laws of heaven;
THE TWELVE COMMANDMENTS; ten of which were given to Moses on Mount Sinai (
Exodus 20:1-17), and the eleventh and twelfth, which were given later-on, by Jesus; one of which God demonstrated and still demonstrates, i.e. “love your enemies into being good” (
Matt. 5:43-48).
Every one of the
convicts accepted God's most
gracious and
merciful offer to be rehabilitated inside human-animal bodies, except for Lucifer/Iblis, who
arrogantly refused to submit to human limitations. Lucifer/Satan/Iblis then asked God for a stay of execution until The Day (
Mal. 4). God granted Lucifer's request, to use him to test the rest of us to determine whether we were learning our lessons, or even paying attention.
That is why Lucifer/Satan/Iblis (the devil, serpent, red-dragon) is still so powerful, and why we
NEED God's guidance and help to “slay the dragon”, i.e. learn to stop listening to and getting poisoned and burned by Satan's seductive voice and smooth-sounding
LIES.
Lucifer/Satan/Iblis regards the rest of us as traitors to himself for our decision to submit to the re-education program, and has vowed to do everything within his power and to attack us from every conceivable angle (
Eph. 6:12-18), to keep us from learning what we
NEED to learn, and doing what we need to
DO, to be able to go home. That is why he is now
our worst enemy.
Sura 7:11-18
7:11. It is We Who created you and gave you shape; then We bade the (fallen) angels submit to Adam (human limitations), and you submitted (
Luke 9:55); not so Iblis (Lucifer); he refused to be of you who submitted.
7:12. ("I AM") said: "What prevented thee from submitting when I commanded thee?" He said: "I am better than he: Thou didst create me from fire (energy), and him from clay."
7:13. ("I AM") said: "Get thee down from this: it is not for thee to be arrogant here: get out, for thou art of the meanest (of creatures)."
7:14. He said: "Give me respite till the Day they are raised up."
7:15. ("I AM") said: "Be thou among those who have respite."
7:16. He said: "Because thou hast thrown me out of The Way, lo! I will lie in wait for them on Thy Straight Way:
7:17. "Then will I assault them from before them and behind them, from their right and their left: nor wilt Thou find, in MOST of them, gratitude (for Thy mercies)."
7:18. ("I AM") said: "Get out from this, disgraced and expelled. If any of them follow thee,- Hell-Fire will I fill with you all (
Matt. 8:22).
Sura 15:30-43
15:30. So the (fallen) angels submitted themselves (
Luke 9:55), all of them together:
15:31. Except Iblis (Lucifer): he refused to be among those who submitted themselves (to human limitations).
15:32. ("I AM") said: "O Lucifer! What is your reason for not being among those who submitted themselves?"
15:33. (Lucifer) said: "I am not one to submit myself to man, whom Thou didst create from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape."
15:34. ("I AM") said: "Then get thee out from here; for thou art rejected, accursed.
15:35. And the Curse shall be on thee till The Day of Judgment."
15:36. (Lucifer) said: "O my Lord! give me then respite till The Day the (dead) are raised."
15:37. ("I AM") said: "Respite is granted thee-
15:38. Till the Day of the Time appointed."
15:39. (Lucifer) said: "O my Lord! Because Thou hast put me in the wrong, I will make (wrong) fair-seeming to them on the Earth, and I will put them ALL in the wrong (
Isaiah 5:20-21),-
15:40. Except Thy servants among them, sincere and purified (by Thy Grace)."
15:41. ("I AM") said: "This (way of My sincere servants) is indeed The Way that leads straight to Me (
John 11:25).
15:42. For over My servants no authority shalt thou have, except such as put themselves in the wrong by following thee."
15:43. And verily, Hell-Fire is the promised abode for them all (
Matt. 8:22)!
Sura 17:61-65
17:61. Behold! We said to the (fallen) angels: "Submit unto Adam (man)": you submitted (
Luke 9:55) except Iblis (Lucifer): he said, "Shall I submit to one whom Thou didst create from clay?"
17:62. He said: "Seest Thou? This is the one (Adamic man) whom Thou hast honoured above me! If Thou wilt but respite me to the Day of Judgment, I will surely bring his descendants under my sway - all but a few (
Rev. 14:3)!"
17:63. ("I AM") said: "Go thy way if any of them follow thee, verily Hell-Fire will be the recompense of you (all)- an ample recompense (
Matt. 8:22).
17:64. "Lead to destruction those whom thou canst among them, with thy (seductive) voice; make assaults on them with thy cavalry and thy infantry; mutually share with them wealth and children; and make promises to them." But Satan promises you nothing but deceit.
17:65. "As for My servants, no authority shalt thou have over them:" enough is thy Lord for a Disposer of affairs (
John 11:25).
John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the Life: he that believeth me (
NOT Lucifer's lies), though he were "Dead" (under God's death sentence for treason -
Rev. 12:7-9;
Matt. 8:22;
Luke 9:55), yet shall he Live (be pardoned):
This is the real reason for human life on planet Earth, to train those Souls (spirit-Beings/angels) who fought with Lucifer against Father (God) and Prince Michael/Christ. That is what each and every one of us did to be banished to the prison planet reform school for the criminally insane.
The
ONLY Way for any of us to be released from this prison is to learn the lessons that we were sent here to learn: how to be perfect, as God in heaven
IS perfect. And the
ONLY Way to do that is to keep The Law, exactly as we've been
COMMANDED to do by every single Prophet and by Christ Himself.
This has absolutely
NOTHING to do with someone's race, skin color, culture, organized religion, or any other human trait or organization. No human can understand much less keep God's Law (The Law). But every spirit-Being (Soul) absolutely can and
MUST learn to keep The Law.
Those who remember and return to The Law will
LIVE, and eventually be released back into the Universe, to be with our
REAL family and friends. Those who continue in this destructive rebellion against Good, Love, Reason, Patience, Mercy, Justice and Freedom for
ALL, will burn.
If you would like to learn how to distinguish between God's small still voice telling you
the Truth and Lucifer's seductive voice telling you the smooth-sounding
lies you(?) think you want to hear, then you'll
NEED to read, study, “digest”
The Survival Plan, which is the “little book” (
Rev. 10:7-10)/”white stone” (
Rev. 2:17) entitled
The Way homeor face The Fire by JAH. The title is self-explanatory.
Those of you who claim to be “
SAVED” already, are
WRONG. You do
not mark your own test. Only the Lord marks
your test and
you will have
absolutely NO say in it. You would do well to learn some fresh and
real humility and start again, this time
DOING what the Lord says and
not what
you decide yourself (Lucifer/Satan/Iblis really). The ego “Self” has to be “
crucified DAILY” (
Luke 9:23) until it is
DEAD and you want
only to
serve your Lord and the
common good,
keeping the
COMMANDments;
Covenants; His Laws and Ways and
NOT your own.
Learn to destroy your ego, or it will destroy
you.
John 4:24
God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship [Him] with their spirit (being) and in Truth.
