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?
Revelation 12:3-4
12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon (Lucifer), having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
12:4 And his tale (of lies -
John 8:35, KJV 8:44) 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 which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born (Christ - Second Coming).
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).
The above verses make it crystal clear who Lucifer is and what happened.
Lucifer (the red dragon, the old serpent/the devil, Satan/Iblis) gathered a third part of the stars (angels) of heaven into his army with his lies about God and Prince Michael, and attempted a coup against Father (The Most High, aka God), in the vain hope of becoming the king ruler of the universe in Father's place.
Prince Michael, Who Commands the heavenly host (the rest of the angels of heaven), put down Lucifer's coup attempt, at which time Lucifer, and the angels who fought with Lucifer against God, were banished from heaven
TO THE EARTH, where the war has continued for the past 6000 years. The Earth serves as a prison planet reform school for the criminally insane (hence the reference to its inhabitants being referred to as prisoners in Isaiah 14:17 already cited above).
Confirmation of these facts are found in the Gospel accounts, where Jesus said the following about the prisoners/inhabitants of Earth:
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):
Of course there's further confirmation in the Koran (Quran) as well:-
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 15:26-43
15:26. We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;
15:27. And the Being (of light) race, We had created before, from the fire of a scorching wind.
15:28. Behold! Thy Lord said to the (fallen) angels: "I am about to create man, from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;
15:29. When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down into submission inside him."
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 war
WILL end, and on Judgment Day
ALL of us will be judged, to see whether we have genuinely changed sides and listen to and obey God (doing God's Will), or whether we have continued to aid and abet Lucifer/Satan/Iblis against God and Prince Michael.
This is why the Old Covenant, New Covenant and Koran (Quran) have warned us hundreds of times that Lucifer/Satan/Iblis is our sworn enemy, who attempts to deceive us all, and that we
MUST learn to listen to and obey God to overcome those lies, or we will face The Fire on Judgment Day.
Of course the Koran (Quran) also instructs its readers that they
MUST read, study and put into practice both The Law and the Gospel, because they contain the criterion by which we will all be judged by Christ (
John 5:22), when He separates His Sheep from the goats (
Matt. 25:31-46).

Only a complete fool, who doesn't know what they're talking about, would look at this track record and the shear number of verses all directing us to The Law and the Gospel -- which are the key to our survival -- and mistakenly believe that the warnings from the Koran (Quran) about Judgment Day are not from God.
And such a complete fool, whether unwittingly or otherwise, is obviously still working for Lucifer/Satan/Iblis against Father and Prince Michael (Christ).
