I'd like to talk a little bit about the fall of Lucifer.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God : I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds ; I will be like the most High. Isaiah 14:12-14

Notice in this passage that LUCIFER (not satan yet) sins by PRIDE. He was ALREADY FALLEN when he tempted Eve.

Look carefully at Isaiah 14.
He wants to ASCEND to heaven.
That means he was BELOW heaven.

Notice he says "I will exalt my throne above the stars of God."
That means that his THRONE was BELOW the stars.

Look at what else he says - "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds."

He started his ascent from BENEATH the CLOUDS.
His THRONE was on EARTH!

His SIN was NOT BEING SATISFIED with HIS OWN throne on EARTH and wanting to exalt his throne ABOVE GOD'S.

This all happened BEFORE the temptation in the garden.

Did you ever notice what Satan says to Eve in the garden?

"For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." Gen 3:5

The temptation was to be as gods, not as God.

Very interesting.
There were gods around that Eve knew about and Satan refers to them to tempt her.
