I strongly disagree with this article.

The author states, "It is clear from the rest of the passage that Isaiah is referring to Satan’s fall from heaven."

No where in Isaiah 14 is the name Satan used.

They use Lucifer and Satan as interchangeable, I don't believe they are.

Isaiah 14:12 clearly states that Lucifer has fallen from heaven and Isaiah 14:16&17 clearly states that Lucifer is a man. Satan is not a man he is an angel.

Isaiah 14 makes me think that Revelation 22:16 is referring to David as Lucifer and Jesus is a descendant of Lucifer. Isaiah is OT, therefore Jesus had not yet existed here on Earth, but David did.

Moreover,

Job 38:7 When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?

2 Peter 1:19 And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;

Isaiah 14 makes Lucifer out to be evil. Revelation 22, Job 38, and 2 Peter 1 make Lucifer out to be good. A clear contradiction. Satan is always depicted as evil in the bible. Satan and Lucifer are not interchangeable, they are not the same being.

The author also states, In Revelation 22:16, Jesus unmistakably identifies Himself as the morning star.

Really? Jesus made a mistake in how he references himself? Have you ever made a mistake in referencing yourself?

In the last paragraph the author states,

So, while both Jesus and Satan can be described as “morning stars,” in no sense is this equating Jesus and Satan ... Satan may be a morning star, but he is only a poor imitation of the one true bright morning star, Jesus Christ, the light of the world.

So which is it, Jesus made a mistake or Jesus can be described as "morning star"?

This article is an opinion piece and logically invalid. They also use Lucifer and Satan as interchangeable, I don't believe they are.
