If Lucifer means Light Bearer, and he "fell from Heaven" does that make him the Sun that falls to Earth?

Question

Also, the "corona"-"halo"-Sun is also associated with Jesus. What's up with that?

Answer 1

"Lucifer" doesn't appear in the Old Testament, it was an invention of the Romans. The original OT entity (which was a personification of the planet Venus, the "light-bearer"), was an earthly king who would turn bad. The Christians re-interpreted this to make him "Satan" because they needed it to support their theology.

Answer 2

No. The Lucifer story is a spiritualized interpretation of the planet Venus' radical change in orbit as seen in our horizon. It is said that it used to have as its orbit a higher more prominent plane but was plunged to its present location as a result of some interplanetary disturbance in the past. As to the corona thing, it is not associated with anyone in particular. The corona(crown) or halo is placed by sculptors on religious statues as an indication of their holiness.

Answer 3

well i read somewhere that Lucifer meant evening star, and u know how lucifer is the devil and he fell from heaven and all?? Well the evening star is the last star that shows up, and Lucifer is like that too. He tries to detest and resist God, going aganst him and all. But the Sun always overpowers all the stars, just like Jesus will overpower Lucifer!! I thought it was a neat thing to think about

Answer 4

no hell is i belive in the center of the earth hints the extreme heat and the berrior that is nickel and all but also going down is related to going to hell well anyway the sun will hit into the earth at the end of the rapture and a new eart/heaven will be formed together...... hell will be destroyed as well a huge lake of fire is where satan and the lost people and fallen angels will be thrown and they will be no more not anywhere just boom gone thats at the end of the rapture and thats after theyve been in hell for some 10000 however many year before the rapture.......the new earth will be simular to the garden of eden and satan knows all this but doesnt want you to belvie it he kind of wants to relive himself of what is going to happen hes a formor angel and he knows what coming for him another reason he hates humans and god so much....... halo is given to angels and heavenly people idk if everyone in heaven gets one or what but lucifer was a good guy turned into a very very very evil villian so thats why he has that name it was given to him pre devil before he was kicked out...
thanks

Answer 5

No. Lucifer is the planet Venus - the Brightest object in the night sky (other than the moon) yet it never gets higher than a few degrees above the horizon and then it "falls" back down to earth.

Peace to you.

Answer 6

I think... That sounds like a bit of Greek Mythology, that falling sun part... Wasn't there a story where the sun god scraped parts of Asia that are now what we call the Middle East?

Answer 7

look...lucifer was never on earth..he was the highest angel!! in heaven! and then he saw man! why does God have more power..i want the same amount of power..no wait i want more!!..thats what lucifer basically said..and bcuz the 7 sins brought him down. God sent him down to hell. and God didnt know he would turn on him..its not like he said your name is going to be light bearer... but im going to send you!! to FOREVER DARKNESSS!!

*God isnt human not boy or girl
God is good all the time
all the time God is good

Answer 8

Since ancient times, "light bearer" has referred to the "morning star" which is a planet. Since none of the possible persons called that were planets, it must be understood as figurative...

Answer 9

Hi RÏ© Z£ÑßÅ¢h ™ ! Yes Christ is the Light of our Salvation. Satan transforms himself into an angel of light, but Satan bring a gospel of lies and a false gospel. God explains this in 2 Corinthians 11:13-14:

"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."

Satan is working in churches around the world to deceive people into believing his lies.God warns us about Satan in 1 Peter 5:8:

"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour."

The name Lucifer occurs once in the Scriptures and only in some versions of the Bible. For example, the King James Version renders Isaiah 14:12: “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!”

The Hebrew word translated “Lucifer” means “shining one.” The Septuagint uses the Greek word that means “bringer of dawn.” Hence, some translations render the original Hebrew “morning star” or “Daystar.” But Jerome’s Latin Vulgate uses “Lucifer” (light bearer), and this accounts for the appearance of that term in various versions of the Bible.

Who is this Lucifer? The expression “shining one,” or “Lucifer,” is found in what Isaiah prophetically commanded the Israelites to pronounce as a “proverbial saying against the king of Babylon.” Thus, it is part of a saying primarily directed at the Babylonian dynasty. That the description “shining one” is given to a man and not to a spirit creature is further seen by the statement: “Down to Sheol you will be brought.” Sheol is the common grave of mankind—not a place occupied by Satan the Devil. Moreover, those seeing Lucifer brought into this condition ask: “Is this the man that was agitating the earth?” Clearly, “Lucifer” refers to a human, not to a spirit creature.—Isaiah 14:4, 15, 16.

Why is such an eminent description given to the Babylonian dynasty? We must realize that the king of Babylon was to be called the shining one only after his fall and in a taunting way. (Isaiah 14:3) Selfish pride prompted Babylon’s kings to elevate themselves above those around them. So great was the arrogance of the dynasty that it is portrayed as bragging: “To the heavens I shall go up. Above the stars of God I shall lift up my throne, and I shall sit down upon the mountain of meeting, in the remotest parts of the north. . . . I shall make myself resemble the Most High.”—Isaiah 14:13, 14.

“The stars of God” are the kings of the royal line of David. (Numbers 24:17) From David onward, these “stars” ruled from Mount Zion. After Solomon built the temple in Jerusalem, the name Zion came to apply to the whole city. Under the Law covenant, all male Israelites were obliged to travel to Zion three times a year. Thus, it became “the mountain of meeting.” By determining to subjugate the Judean kings and then remove them from that mountain, Nebuchadnezzar is declaring his intention to put himself above those “stars.” Instead of giving Jehovah credit for the victory over them, he arrogantly puts himself in Jehovah’s place. So it is after being cut down to the earth that the Babylonian dynasty is mockingly referred to as the “shining one.”

The pride of the Babylonian rulers indeed reflected the attitude of “the god of this system of things”—Satan the Devil. (2 Corinthians 4:4) He too lusts for power and longs to place himself above Jehovah God. But Lucifer is not a name Scripturally given to Satan.
