The best One to answer your question is God.
Isaiah 14:12-21 reads:
12 “ How you are fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
13 For you have said in your heart:
‘ I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the mount of the congregation
On the farthest sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High.’
15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,
To the lowest depths of the Pit.
16 “ Those who see you will gaze at you,
And consider you, saying:
‘ Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,
17 Who made the world as a wilderness
And destroyed its cities,
Who did not open the house of his prisoners?’
18 “ All the kings of the nations,
All of them, sleep in glory,
Everyone in his own house;
19 But you are cast out of your grave
Like an abominable branch,
Like the garment of those who are slain,
Thrust through with a sword,
Who go down to the stones of the pit,
Like a corpse trodden underfoot.
20 You will not be joined with them in burial,
Because you have destroyed your land
And slain your people.
The brood of evildoers shall never be named.
21 Prepare slaughter for his children
Because of the iniquity of their fathers,
Lest they rise up and possess the land,
And fill the face of the world with cities.”
Reader's Digest version: Lucifer was a cherib, an angel of the highest order; he hovered above God's throne, to "cover it" and was given many priviledges; his beauty and wisdom were perfect; he was in the Garden of Eden and betrayed God by tempting Eve and causing Adam to bring sin into the world; Lucifer felt he deserved to sit on God's throne.

Satan was created by God the Father. He was the most powerful angel in Heaven and the only Being in Heaven more powerful than he was God. Satan was called Lucifer which means light before he betrayed God. Lucifer decided that he wanted to be as powerful as God so God kicked him out of Heaven and Satan took 1/3 of the angels of Heaven with him.

the bible doesnt know everything. the Creator God is NOT NOT NOT Jehova!!!! The Creator is an Energy Force of Great Magic and WIsdom. Jehova took that title because he was a moron!
Indra has parents but thier names are disclosed at the moment.
Satans real name was Indra of the Hindu dieties and yes he was a GOD Jehova did not like Indra and Anu put Jehova in charge of things. Big mistake! Jehova changed Indra's name to Satan and called him an angel instead of a GOD and he made a bet with him. He bet that he could make people believe in his religion more than in Indra's ideas. Bad things began to happen and wars started because of Jehova. Jehova realizing what he had done, became angry and banished Indra(Satan) to another galaxy. two thousand years have passed, Anu came back and destroyed Jehova, Indra came back to this planet and he is angry at the mess Jehova made.

God created the angels or sons of God probably after heaven was made. The angel Lucifer was prideful and became consumed with jealousy over the Lord's position. Lucifer deceived a fourth of the angels and led a rebellion against God.
Revelation 12:7-9
And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
Isaiah 14:12-21
12 “ How you are fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer,[b] son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
13 For you have said in your heart:
‘ I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the mount of the congregation
On the farthest sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High.’
15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,
To the lowest depths of the Pit.
16 “ Those who see you will gaze at you,
And consider you, saying:
‘ Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,
17 Who made the world as a wilderness
And destroyed its cities,
Who did not open the house of his prisoners?’
18 “ All the kings of the nations,
All of them, sleep in glory,
Everyone in his own house;
19 But you are cast out of your grave
Like an abominable branch,
Like the garment of those who are slain,
Thrust through with a sword,
Who go down to the stones of the pit,
Like a corpse trodden underfoot.
20 You will not be joined with them in burial,
Because you have destroyed your land
And slain your people.
The brood of evildoers shall never be named.
21 Prepare slaughter for his children
Because of the iniquity of their fathers,
Lest they rise up and possess the land,
And fill the face of the world with cities.”

Satan was not an angel, but due to his high status before God, he was among the angels. Angels worship and are made that way, but Satan who was from among the spirits had freedom of choice. God created prophet Adam and told the angels to prostrate to him, all the angels did except Satan. He said that he was a spirit and created from a higher valuable material than prophet Adam who was created from clay. So Satan felt jealous and was cast to hellfire but was given respite, and he promised to misguide mankind except those he can not who are sincere. So the original sin was vanity; thinking that you're better than some one.

You have hate in your heart (verified by your user-name), so it
would do no good to tell you anything about God as I'm sure you
would not believe it anyway. Bush is a Christian and if you hate
him, then you just don't know anything about the Bible or who
Christians really are. Satan will be able to run your life and you
won't even know it.

"Satan", which means "the adversary" was created after he cherished sin. "Lucifer" was an angel next to the throne of God in the beginning: "You were the perfection of wisdom and beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of God. Your clothing was adorned with every precious gemstone....all beautifully crafted for you and set in the finest gold. They were given to you on the day you were created. I ordained and anointed you as the mighty angelic guardian. You had access to the holy mountain of God and walked among the stones of fire. You were blameless in all you did from the day you were created-
until the day evil was found in you.
Your great wealth filled you with violence, and you sinned. So I banished you from the mountain of God. I expelled you, O mighty guardian, from your place among the stones of fire. Your heart was filled with pride because of all your beauty. You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth...." Ezekiel 28:12-17 Here vanity and greed were the sins that Satan cherished.
In another book we read: "How are you fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! You have been thrown down to the earth, you who destroyed the nations of the world. For you said to yourself, "I will ascend to heaven and set my throne above God's stars...I will climb to the highest heavens and be like the Most High." Isaiah 14: 12-14
Now Satan is guilty of rebellion against his loving Creator. He becomes the great deceiver when he convinces one third of the angels that God is all the things that he himself is.
Today we are told in the Bible to: "Be careful! Watch out for attacks from the Devil, your great enemy. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for some victim to devour. Take a firm stand against him, and be strong in your faith." I Peter5:8-9
Further, we are told what Satan's future is: destruction, for all that he has done to deceive and bring misery. God's "laws" lead to happiness. Disobedience leads to more sin, and sorrow.
I recommend a translation of the Bible that is easy for you to understand, and a concordance, for looking things up. Time and space here do not allow for all there is to tell. Message me anytime. Blessings, Buttercup

Well there are writings, in the Old Testament, that the angels came to earth and mingled with the humans( meaning s-x ) And were thrown out of heaven. Lucifer was an Archangel. He lost his place with God by betrayal
