Hope I didn't get too weird on you there. Lol :)

Not at all. I like the way you think. This sort of stuff is totally in my wheelhouse!

I've not thought too much on the distinctions between 'satanic' and 'luciferian', but I think your description of the two biases illuminates (woaaah.....?) (kek) some interesting dimensions.

Identifying the traits of either or both of these is a critical aspect of engaging in spiritual work. It resonates with a very powerful paradigm I've used for decades: drawing a distinction between 'fallen nature' and 'original nature', or fallen mind and original mind.

If one sees the original nature/mind as sourced from the Creator - aka what we are endowed with as God's creation - and fallen nature/mind as being sourced from the fallen angel, one begins to identify just how we are manipulated by fallen nature and the process of separation of good and evil within ourselves can begin on a conscious level.

The idea here is that fallen nature was inherited from the fallen angel, Lucifer, who fell to become Satan, by Adam and Eve through the process of establishing a relationship with him (expressed in scripture as the eating of the fruit).

Thus, each man is a fusion of Adamic nature and Angelic nature. Adamic nature is inherent, original and natural to us, but angelic nature is foreign. The two need to be identified and separated.

How did Lucifer fall to become Satan? After all, Lucifer was a good, pure being created by God. Lucifer's problem started with an arrogance that overemphasized the intellectual understanding he had. He thought he was the smartest, and as far as Angels go, he was, but Adam was created not only with intelligence, but with heart, to be able to love as God loves.

Lucifer looked at Adam and saw a young dolt, an upstart. Lucifer had labored with God for millenia in designing, creating and then overseeing the running of the universe. Then, God creates Adam, and purposed to give ALL of that to Adam. Lucifer began to feel jealous of the love that Adam received from God, which was greater in bandwidth and greater in intensity than what Lucifer received from God.

Lucifer should have seen Adam, and loved Adam recognizing that Adam was not only the purpose of God creating the universe, but also the purpose of Lucifer's creation. As God's son, Adam was to be the master (and, a master of love, eventually) to Lucifer.

So, without going into more detail, Lucifer developed 4 fallen natures: he failed to see Adam from God's viewpoint. Next, he failed to keep his rightful position in relation to Adam, to keep Adam as his (eventual) governor. Then, Lucifer reversed the roles with Adam, and attempted to control and dominate Adam instead of letting himself be governed by Adam. Finally, Lucifer multiplied his corrupted perspective and behavior by tempting Eve in order to destroy Adam through Eve. He multiplied his sin, instead of repenting and reversing.

These are the four fallen natures we can see play out in humanity: not seeing things from God's perspective, not keeping one's rightful position, reversing the order of governance/dominion, and multiplying our sin.

Conversely, our original nature pushes us to see things from God's viewpoint. (we should love the things that God loves, and desire the things that God desires.) It pushes us to keep our rightful position in relation to others, including God, including Christ, but also in normal relationships. It pushes us to maintain the correct order of governance, and it pushes us to multiply goodness and curb our sin.

When the government sees the population as something to dominate and control,when it leaves its correct position of being servant to the population, when it rises above the population and attempts to (or actually does) put itself in the position to dominate and coerce the people, and then multiples the corruption by tempting others into that vortex of corruption and unprincipled action, it is simply exhibiting the fallen nature of the fallen angel, and is in fact repeating the Fall of Man on the national level, standing in the position of a fallen archangel.

kek. Did I get too weird? Anyway, I like the way you think, fren. wwg1wga.
