SATAN IS A MAN ( PART - 2)

Isaiah 14,    1 John 3:6-10

The Prophet Isaiah was speaking forth by the Holy Spirit to Lucifer an alias of Satan, calling him “Son of the Morning” in Verse 11.  How at thou fallen from heaven?  He was thrown out of heaven to his grave (this earth) because of his pride he wanted to be a god like the true Jehovah God.

He is a created being, an evil angel, iniquity was found in him, in heaven he accepted praise of the peoples of the world and presented it to God, that was too much for him he was envious, he probably said all this should be mine.  In Job’s time he had access to heaven but not now.  This is one of the reasons that we live in perilous times, because he knows he has but a short time; Revelation 12:12, 2 Timothy 3:1.

In verse 13, we can see he had big ideas so he arranged a coup, one third of the angels followed him and had a part with his iniquity, they are reserved until judgment.

A key verse is Verse 16, it says there is coming a time when he will be seen, and people will wonder and say “is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake Kingdoms”

This statement is very plain, he is a man with power but thank God he is not all powerful like Jesus is, although he is counterfeiting him, he is a looser, and unless men accept Jesus into their hearts and believe in his sacrifice to give us freedom to choose Jesus, God’s only Son and follow him, then it is very easy to be taken into bondage as a prisoner, never to be set free Verse 17.  The “evil one” another alias is a very real enemy who hates “mankind, God’s masterpiece”, and he has an army of familiar demons working for him to defeat those who think they can live without Jesus, there is no other way to have Victory.

Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life no man can come to the Father but by him.  His name is the only name given to men so they can be saved, Act 4:12.

In this Chapter he is called ‘Oppressor’ – once,  ‘Wicked’ once, ‘Thy’  6 times, ‘Son of the Morning’  once, ‘King’ once, ‘His’ twice, ‘Man’ once, ‘He’ twice, ‘Father’ once, ‘Thou’ 5 times, ‘Thee’ 8 times.  Those terms are male in gender, ‘I’ 5 times. As a man he cannot die but will be cast into the Lake of fire.

When Jesus came to earth as a baby he came according to God’s plan, and his purpose was twofold (a) 1 John 3:5, it was to take away our sins and (b) Verse 8, he came that he might destroy the works of the Devil, therefore there are only two seeds in the earth producing two kinds of children, Verse 10.

Which seed are you from?  And whose child are you?  Do not be deceived, be like the Wise Men of old, Seek Jesus, Worship and follow Him.
