SATAN'S ORIGINAL NAME

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Satan’s Original Name

a) Satan is not his original name. It is Lucifer and in the Hebrew it means “shining one” or “morning star.” The Latin Vulgate refers to is as “the morning star, the planet Venus.”  More modern translations refer to his name as “day star”, “morning star” or “shining one” and so it is ironic that Paul says that Satan’s ministers can appear as an angel of light or as 2 Corinthians 11:14 says, “Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.”  

b) Satan was created as Lucifer or the morning star and was created in perfection (Ezekiel 28:12).  It was only later that this powerful angel fell from grace and was cast down from heaven. 


The End ...
