Himself and man that was destroyed because of sin.

Responsive reading (romans 5:12-21) Prayer

Brief introduction of the topic: Today we will gonna talk about the fall of lucifer and the fall of man, and
let us see what can we learn from these. Later on in our discussion we will also answer why God has a
plan for redemption and where did it all began.

When we talk about a "man" and the satan or lucifer, is there any relationship we can come up with? In
a state of being a sinner or not neglecting that we are once living in our old nature, we cannot deny that
we once belong to the family of him who has fallen out from heaven.

Maybe you have read John 8:44

[44]You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a
murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he
speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

So our state in God's sight before whether we like it or not we are considered "anak sa yawa" why?
Because we are all murderer. And we all know that the law, which is given unto moses in mount Sinai is
being describe by others as mirror, where in if you look at it you will realize how guilty a sinner you are,
and in the new testament we have read that Jesus makes the mirror much more cleaner by setting a
higher standard than what it was,

Matthew 5:21-22

[21]“You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘You shall not murder, and anyone who
murders will be subject to judgment.’

[22]But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again,
anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You
fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell.

Matthew 5:27-28

[27]“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’

[28]But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in
his heart.

Now given the reason of being a child of the father of lies, it makes clear what makes Jesus Christ
unique among us, Jesus Christ is the only begottern son of God (jhn 3:16) and we are once the children
of the father of lies (john 8:44) and then after believing Jesus christ we then become the adopted
children of the Heavenly fatheraccording to (john 1:12) and (Ephesians 1:5)

[5]he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and
will—

*Knowing the relationships let is now start and see what we will learn from the fall of lucifer and the fall
of man

 LUCIFER CAST OUT OF HEAVEN

Kung natingala mo if you start reading genesis, sa chapter 3 ang dautan nikalit lng og tungha sa porma sa
usa ka bitin, Ang storya aning dautan, usa ka perfecto, og binuhat nga anghel gipisik sa tulo ka bahin sa
bibliya. Atung tan'awon

EZEKIEL 28:12-15

The original context of this passage is dealing with an evil king from the city of Tyre. Biblical scholars
believe that in verses 12-15 the prophet switches from talking about an earthly king to the evil power
behind this king that influenced him, namely Satan. How do we know this is really talking about Satan
and not this human king? There are some things in this passage that cannot be said about any human
being which gives us the clue that God must be speaking of a spiritual being. This description gives us
insight as to exactly why, where and how Satan originated.

Ezekiel 28:12-15

[12]“Son of man, take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre and say to him: ‘This is what the
Sovereign Lord says:

“ ‘You were the seal of perfection,

    full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

[13]You were in Eden,

    the garden of God;

every precious stone adorned you:

    carnelian, chrysolite and emerald,

    lapis lazuli, turquoise and beryl.

Your settings and mountings were made of gold;

    on the day you were created they were prepared.

[14]You were anointed as a guardian cherub,

    for so I ordained you.

You were on the holy mount of God;

    you walked among the fiery stones.

[15]You were blameless in your ways

    from the day you were created

    till wickedness was found in you.

So, from this passage we learn that Lucifer was perfect (v. 12, 15), full of wisdom and beauty. Some have
suggested that Lucifer had some role in leading the heavenly worship because of the reference to his
“timbrels and pipes.” I believe it’s difficult to deduce that with any great degree of accuracy. We also
learn that he was the “anointed cherub”, or the angel “set apart to cover the throne of God”. There is
some debate as to exactly when the angel Lucifer (lit. Morning Star), who became Satan (lit. adversary),
was cast out of heaven. The point here is that at some point Lucifer’s pride and desire to be like God and
his discontentment with his heavenly position got him kicked out of heaven.

LESSON

Discontentment with what God has graciously given us is pride and can result in Him taking it away

ISAIAH 14:12-15

This is the second passage of Scripture that describes the actual fall of Lucifer. This passage has been
referred to as “The 5 ‘I Wills’ ”. Five times in this passage Lucifer says, “I will”. It begins by confirming
that Lucifer indeed “fell” from heaven (v. 12). His pride and desire to be like God is what led to his
destruction. It is this same attitude
of pride that lead to our own personal destruction. Jesus confirms Satan’s fall in Luke 10:18 where he
said, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.”

Isaiah 14:12-15

[12]How you have fallen from heaven,

    morning star, son of the dawn!

You have been cast down to the earth,

    you who once laid low the nations!

[13]You said in your heart,

    “I will ascend to the heavens;

I will raise my throne

    above the stars of God;

I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,

    on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon.

[14]I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;

    I will make myself like the Most High.”

[15]But you are brought down to the realm of the dead,

    to the depths of the pit.

REVELATION 12:1-4

This passage confirms that when Lucifer was cast out of heaven one-third of the angels followed him in
his rebellion at which point they became demons. This teaches us that just as humans were created with
a will to choose, angels were as well.
Revelation 12:1-4

[1]A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a
crown of twelve stars on her head.

[2]She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.
[3]Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and
seven crowns on its heads.

[4]Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front
of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born.

SUMMARY

So, from these 3 passages we can deduce that Satan began as a beautiful created angel who was
discontent with his position in heaven because he wanted to be like God. Because of this, God cast him
out of heaven. Unfortunately, he was not content to leave by himself. Rather, he used his influence to
persuade one-third of the angels to follow in his rebellion

 THE FALL OF MAN

Some time after Lucifer was cast out of heaven and after God created the earth Satan manifested
himself in the form of a snake and tempted Eve in the garden (Gen. 3:1-7). Interestingly enough, he
attempts to discredit the word of God by asking Eve, “Did God really say…?”He has been trying to
discredit the authenticity of God’s word ever since. When Adam and Eve sinned we inherited several
aspects of sin that we struggle with every day.

Shame enters in verse 7. For the first time they were not comfortable around one another naked so
much so that they attempted to cover themselves with fig leaves. This “shame” has remained within
relationships hindering couples from becoming “naked,” vulnerable and totally transparent before each
other (cf. Gen. 2:25).

Self-righteousness enters next. Notice that Adam and Eve tried to fix their shame and nakedness by
covering themselves. Self-righteousness is man’s attempt to make himself right before God. In doing so,
we reject the free gift of forgiveness and grace that is only available in Jesus Christ without realizing
what we’re doing. We have been attempting to cover our own sins through obedience, good works,
giving money, our good outweighing our bad and a litany of other good “works.” Even we as Christians
still operate with this faulty mentality”. But these good works are not sufficient enough to cover the
totality of our sin. Isaiah 64:6 says,

Wow! Even on our best days when we think we are doing something amazing for God and living a
perfect Christian life our attempts to be righteous before God is like a menstrual rag in His sight. There is
not enough good we couldever do that would be sufficient to cover our own sin.
In verse 8 we see guilt enter in on the scene. If shame leads to hiding from each other in fear of being
judged, guilt can lead us to hide from God. Before sin, Adam communed with God regularly. But now, as
a result of sin, he knows he is naked and sinful and tries to hide from God. Don’t we do the same thing
when we sin? We feel “unworthy” to approach God and so at times we hide. We feel unworthy to
worship, unworthy to pray and ask God for things because we feel we don’t deserve it because of what
we’ve done. That’s the beauty in what Christ has done for us. He has taken away our guilt. Guilt implies
that God is disappointed in us and so we must do something to earn His favor again. Instead of guilt we
as Christians experience conviction. Conviction is given to us through the Holy Spirit Who lives within us.
This is how God communicates to us that we are out of step with Him. However, this conviction should
never hinder us from approaching God’s throne with boldness (Heb. 4:14-16).

Finally in verses 12-13 we have blame. Both Adam and Eve pass the buck and fail to take responsibility
for their sin. Don’t we do this today? Instead of simply admitting our sin we try to make excuses for it,
rationalize it and/or justify it. At times we blame others for it. Yes, this is what we inherited from Adam
and Eve.
