Before he was Satan, he was LUCIFER, son of the morning. Yes, this is myth, but myths are said to be lies that tell the truth. The truth in this lie resides in how time works in relation to Eternity. Before anything was, before our beginning—where the sons of God shouted for joy—from within the Eternity there could be viewed all material possibility, and our world was there displayed amid the rest. And as Lucifer was becoming Satan, he was, too, becoming the Lucifer the myth was making him as much as he made the myth. Lucifer, who rebelled against the Most High by one word, but o the consequence: the word being, “no”.
The Lord teaches that there is one thing that cannot be forgiven: blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Since we say that God is love, that blasphemy would simply be to say “no” to that spirit, the spirit of love. For there is not but light in love, any dark sort of love being actually something mixed with its true essence. And thus Lucifer was the first to say “no” to love. Said it with all he possibly could of himself. It was the birth of EVIL. Of the living darkness. And Lucifer became SATAN.
