Okay, let me put it this way.

Satan isn't a formal name. It is a translation for the word "adversary"

Devil actually means "Slanderer"

Lucifer means "Bearer of Light" but that is a butchered translation of a translation for the real name of the demon/angel in question.

It's Haylel.

El usually means God.

Angel means Messenger of God.

Michael, Gabriel, Raphael -- they aren't names God gave to His angels. They are an aspect of his glory bestowed upon His loyal followers. They are their respective anointings.

Michael means Who is like of God.

Gabriel means Strength of God.

Raphael means Healer of God

Raziel means Secrets of God

Haylel then would mean Light of God, right? Lucifer means Light Bearer, so Light of God is correct in translation, right?

No. English doesn't have a word for it. Few languages do. Praise of God is closer, but is still incorrect.

It's more akin to the Narrator or Director of a story, rather than its Author. It's the Spotlight in a stage play. It's what directs the attention of a story.

Haylel is, or rather was, the stage operator. Haylel was God's chief Cherub. Haylel was God's entertainer and Choir director. Haylel was, effectively, Hollywood.

Rather, HE HIMSELF wasn't these things, but he was given authority over these things.

And he had one big job, his Magnum Opus. God gave each of the angels a Great Work to do, and they had free will to accept or reject it.

Haylel's job was to tell the Good News of the World. He was tasked to announce the coming of Man. Adam.

He rejected this Great Work, and with it he rejected his Stone. He rejected God's will, and therefore rejected God.

And so Haylel held trial in the Heavens before the Throne and tasked God to explain what this Man he planned on bringing into the World was, and how it was that something lesser than the Angels would be given Authority over them.

"What are humans that you are mindful of them, mere mortals that you care for them? Yet you have made them little less than a god, crowned them with glory and honor, You have given them rule over the works of your hands, put all things at their feet: all sheep and oxen, even the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, the fish of the sea, and whatever swims the paths of the seas." - Psalms 8: 5-9

This passage is David recanting the objection Haylel spoke before his fall. David, through the Psalms, was transcribing the infinite prayers of the Angels, which they say every day, timeless beings as they are. However, Haylel's namesake, his "praise" was forever more tinged with obstination.

Rebellion ensued, and God cast out a third of the angels who refused to do their tasked Great Works.

And so, all the demons who rejected their Authority, their namesake, became Satan -- The Adversary.

But first among them was the Devil, once called Haylel/Lucifer, who was the Slanderer who set them upon that path. All fell due to his Slander of the Word. Instead of disclosing to the World the true nature of the Son of Man, he withheld the news of the Authority of Adam; to have Authority equal to God as is his rightful inheritance.

From then on, he was the Devil, Slanderer of God's word. He cannot create, and so he takes that which is good and convinces Man to use it at the wrong time, in the wrong place, and for the wrong reasons. Nothing God made is evil. Evil is using a tool of God against its nature.

You would not use a hammer to turn a screw, just as you would not kill your fellow Man. Killing is not always wrong. You must kill to eat. The concept is not incorrect, but is misuse is. And so, the Slanderer would say "Is it not better to kill your fellow Man that you would advance your station? Is it not right that the ends justify the means?"

That is the definition of Evil, whose Author is the Adversary we call Satan. Any who reason thusly ARE Satan. Haylel/Lucifer is simply its author. He does not sin personally, and every moment he bares his hands as proof that they are clean. But he does not open his mouth in the presence of the Lord, as no greater vitriol exists in all Creation.

You see, what really sets humans apart from angels is that we can choose our own Great Works, as well as refuse them outright. It's our own limitations that give us that choice, and so our Free Will is something far greater than the Spiritual Free Will of the angels.

Through our limitations we have infinite choice but limited time to choose. This grants us the Divine Spark, and enables us to uniquely serve God such that He, the know-er of all things, may be pleasantly surprised by our flattery of Him.

Jesus' Great Work was the Passion. He created the Stone as a carpenter, which is to say he is the Stone and gave proof of it so that the Universe may know him, and once he had achieved mastery of the Art of Creation, it was then time to Perfect the Stone as the only one who possibly could.

Love is the Greatest of Works, and no act is more proving of Love than Sacrifice of the Self.

He was perfect in every way, and so the Unblemished Offering, the Sacrificial Lamb shed his blood into the World and the World knew Him as its master.

But what is the World that it have any need of reverence to itself?

One name for the world is the Father, but another is the Lord.

The Lord is the Law. It is the rules of the Universe which are held ever in balance such that we may find one another in it.

The Law is the harvest. If you would plant a seed, tend to it, and Love it, it will bear great fruit. If you mistreat the seed, rush it to grow, and take it for granted, it will respond to you in kind.

The Lord is the God of the Old Testament, and breaking its Law garnered you no favor and immediate wrath. The Lord was just, and his mercy was reserved for the merciful.

But the Blood of the Stone lived in the World, and mercy bled through to the followers of the God of Abraham. All that was done by the Lord was to the letter, with only as much grandeur as a careful machine would have done, not as a Man who Loves would have done.

Jesus fulfilled the Law, and is the Son of God whose Authority he wields. He is known for his Mercy above all, which is the Law given unto Love. For what is Justice but a cold and blind mistress. Justice and Love together form Mercy, and such is the fulfillment of the Law.

They Mercy of God, of Christ Jesus, is infinite. It breaks all bounds of logic and reason and revels at the Sinner who has but one virtue to his name, because by that singular virtue and a repentant heart, that Sinner is saved. That is why those in heaven celebrate wildly at the redemption of the greatest sinners.

For the Love of God is so great that the only thing necessary for redemption is that you not cast blame but accept your failures and ask for forgiveness. God knows your heart, and if you are truly sorry, you will be forgiven.

There is no measure of time for how quickly God can forgive.

That is the mystery of Faith.

I hope this finds you well.

God bless.
