Lucifer is the despotic tyrant and oppressor of all of Adam’s fallen race. He fully understands the behavior of his unregenerate human slaves (Eph. 2:1-3; Heb. 2:14-15) and he is the “supreme hunter” of souls (Isa. 14:16-17; Ezek. 28:19; Luke 4:5-6; 2 Cor. 4:34; 1 Peter 5:8). Satan fully comprehends the fallen nature of humanity and our sensual desires, which are governed and dominated by our five physical senses. He fully knows how to manipulate, entice, bait, snare and catch his prey for his twisted godless will (Eph. 6:11-12). He has been an “active observer” of the transgressions of humanity for ~ 6000 years (see Gal. 5:19-21), and he fully knows that once immoral lusts and sexual vices have taken hold of and have snared his prey, he is able to bring to naught a particular people or nation for his own evil advantage (Gen. 6:2, Rom. 1:25-32, 1 Cor. 10:6-8).

All the same it is relevant as ever.
Just yesterday as we heard about another media person revealed for sexual improprieties, I pondered a very odd thought. One I am failing to put into words, but let me try. The ‘leaders’ of the feminist movement, the most vocal all these years are finally admitting what has happened to them. Some maybe for the first time realizing they had been victims and a suddenly tarnished success.
I have often listened to these women shriek and honestly many have wondered ...what world do they live in...because we look around and simply don’t see these complaints in our daily lives. The casting of every man as an evil sexual predator/harasser such that the common woman views a nice compliment as harassment is absurd. Yet, as these media women come forward in their world, and their experiences were real, it was their world no matter how disconnected it is from everyday life for most people.
So, what does this airing of dirty laundry do? Is there a Holy purge going on and should we be stepping forward to witness to them the love of Christ?
Dear Ignorant:
What is the Bible basis for your first sentence? “Lucifer is the despotic tyrant and oppressor of all of Adam’s fallen race.”
Lucifer only occurs once in the KJV Bible, Isa. 14.12, as a Latin word (Why not a Hungarian word?). Verse 4 plainly says that Isaiah’s talking about the King of Babylon, who rose quickly like a bright morning star.
So again, what’s the Biblical basis for your assertion?
I believe in Satan, Ignorant, but the site you cite doesn’t even mention Lucifer, any more than the Bible identifies Lucifer as Satan.
Again, what is your basis for identifying Lucifer as Satan, when Isaiah identifies him as the King of Babylon?
I’ll be glad to teach it if you can point to the Bible basis of it. Otherwise, people may get the idea that you’re teaching something with absolutely no basis for it.
Ignorant, are you familiar with Prov. 30.5-6?
5 Every word of God is tried: He is a shield unto them that take refuge in him. 6 Add thou not unto his words, Lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
Ignorant, the Mormon Doctrine and Covenants, 76.25-29 asserts, also with no Bible authority, that Lucifer is Satan.
You’re not a Mormon are you Ignorant?
25 And this we saw also, and bear record, that an angel of God who was in authority in the presence of God, who rebelled against the Only Begotten Son whom the Father loved and who was in the bosom of the Father, was thrust down from the presence of God and the Son,
26 And was called Perdition, for the heavens wept over him—he was Lucifer, a son of the morning.
27 And we beheld, and lo, he is fallen! is fallen, even a son of the morning!
28 And while we were yet in the Spirit, the Lord commanded us that we should write the vision; for we beheld Satan, that old serpent, even the devil, who rebelled against God, and sought to take the kingdom of our God and his Christ—
29 Wherefore, he maketh war with the saints of God, and encompasseth them round about.
