Lucifer (TV series)

[MililaniBuckeye]

The new series that immediately followed the X-Files reboot. Even though the premise of the Devil himself coming up into the real world and hanging out seems goofy at best on the surface, it's actually pretty interesting and has quite a few funny moments. If it stays in the timeslot immediately following the X-Files, I'll probably keep watching it. Anyone else watch it?

I saw a preview. Looks corny as fuck.

 

[Honor&Glory]

Dvr'd it and will watch later.

If you are a Christian, or even if you aren't, it is a very bad show. Instead of Lucifer being evil, it implies the he uses his evil to do good.

Bolded key word.

I watched a couple, sorta, and mostly was just transfixed by the lead lady's eyebrows.

Show, play, song. You think it matters how Satan gets in?

You said Lucifer, not Satan.

Come on. You get to God thru Jesus. Figure it out.

I'm just confused as to what a Babylonian king has to do with anything.

You might want to look up when the book of Isaiah was written.

I thought we were talking about Gozer the Gozerian... my bad.

The king of Babylon had a Latin name?


Great, now you've sent me on a search to find an answer that has always eluded me. When did the name Lucifer first become associated with Satan? The church fathers were unanimous in understanding lucifer as the "morning star", which was being used as an analogy to Nebuchadnezzar (most likely) and the Reformers were aware of this incorrect understanding of Isaiah 14:12. So, where did the association first occur as preserved in the KJV?
