(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Now that we understand the true story, now let's talk about the imposter. OK. We've got the real morning star. Who's the real morning star? Jesus, right? And he's represented by the sun, which is the day star. What other star can you see in the daytime? There's only one star that you can see in the daytime, folks. And it's the sun. You cannot see any stars in the daytime ever. Once the sun comes out, that stuff's gone. Even the brightest star in the sky cannot even begin to appear in the presence of the sun. There's an old myth that people, if they went down in the bottom of a well, they could look up at the sky and see the stars in the daytime. It's a myth. It doesn't work. It can't happen. It's impossible. OK. But the devil is the great imposter, isn't he? He's the great deceiver. He's the great counterfeiter. And so in Isaiah chapter 14, we have a scripture about the King of Babylon. But it actually is talking about Satan. It's using the King of Babylon as a picture of Satan, or using Satan as a picture of the King of Babylon. And the Bible does the same thing in Ezekiel 28, where it used the King of Tyre to represent the devil. So he's talking to the King of Tyre, but then he says, oh, you were in the Garden of Eden. Obviously, the King of Tyre wasn't in the Garden of Eden. But the devil was. And when he talks about these kings who want to be like God and who think that they're God, he compares them to the devil. Because what was the devil's great sin? Pride. I will be like the Most High, right? So the devil wanted to be like the Most High God. And he's cast down. And these kings that wanted to be God or thought of themselves as God, the Lord compares them to Satan. That's like the spirit of Satan. So look at Isaiah chapter 14. And let's look at this famous passage about the devil being cast out of heaven. It says in verse 12, 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 set in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will also sit 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, yet thou shalt be brought down to hell to the sides of the pit. So this clearly has a parallel in the devil wanting to be like the Most High, being cast down from heaven, falling from heaven. And this is why we often refer to the devil as Lucifer. And in fact, if we were to go up and down the streets of America with a microphone and ask people, who is Lucifer? They would all 100% of them tell us that it's the devil. And the reason we know that is because we did that in 2013 when we were making our film, New World Order Bible Versions. We went around with a microphone, and we interviewed person after person and asked them what different words meant to them. And everyone told us the same thing. Lucifer is Satan. Lucifer is the devil. That's what they all said. What if we look up Lucifer in the dictionary? If we were to look up Lucifer in the dictionary, definition number one says, and this is using dictionary.com, which is my favorite dictionary. I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, or I'm sorry. Dictionary.com isn't that biblical. Dictionary.com definition number one says, a proud rebellious archangel identified with Satan who fell from heaven. That's definition number one. But what about definition number two? And this is what we want to talk about this morning, definition number two. What does the word Lucifer actually mean? Because the word Lucifer existed before 1611 when the King James is putting in Lucifer here. The word Lucifer existed even before the Latin Bible put in Lucifer in Isaiah 14. What does the word Lucifer actually mean if we trace it back as far as we can? What does it mean? I'm going to come back to that. Let me just leave you hanging on that for a minute. But let me say this. The modern versions here, the NIV, the ESV, the New American State, they change this. They all remove Lucifer, which is a pretty commonly known fact. And what they will often do, like the NIV will say, how art thou fallen from heaven, oh morning star. Now here's the problem with that. Jesus Christ said, I'm the morning star. The day star is something that arises in our hearts. So why would the morning star be fallen from heaven? Now this is a very scary thing when you see that the modern versions are calling the devil by the exact name that they're calling Jesus Christ. That isn't normal. That is wrong for them. It does not make sense to sit there and say, oh, you've fallen from heaven. Especially because why is it that the devil is being cast down? Why does he fall from heaven in Isaiah 14? Because he wants to be like the most high. That makes it seem like, oh, Jesus is being cast out of heaven because he wants to be the most high. Hey, he is the most high. Jesus Christ is God. Jesus Christ is the most high God. And so Jesus Christ is not an imposter. He is the real deal. He's the genuine article. So this is nefarious to have the morning star here in Isaiah 14.12 when we know for a fact that Jesus said, I'm the morning star. So why have the modern versions done this? Why would they put that there? What's going on? I'm going to explain to you why. Now the thing about this, OK, calling Satan the morning star in Isaiah 14.12, this is what the modern versions will say. Oh, this has nothing to do with Satan. He's just the king of Babylon. Why are you calling the king of Babylon the morning star? You know, Jesus is the morning star. But why did they translate this this way? Is that what the Hebrew says? Does the Hebrew say morning star? Is that what they're translating? No. In the original Hebrew, there's no star. The word for star isn't there. Doesn't exist there. The word for the morning only exists because he says, how art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning? But they'll translate it as, O morning star, son of the dawn. So they're like repeating morning twice. There's only one word for morning there. So it's not that they're more accurate. You know, the King James had it wrong. No, wrong, friend. The King James is accurate. The King James translates it Lucifer. It's a Hebrew word that only occurs one time. And the King James used a word that only occurs one time. Lucifer. And actually, Lucifer matches up with the meaning of the Hebrew. It's right. I've seen so many bozos just making things up. I saw somebody said, oh, well, it's because the King James isn't translated from Hebrew. It's translated from Latin. Come on, are you serious? If you just took five seconds to research the King James Bible, you'd understand they translated the Old Testament 100% from the Hebrew and the New Testament 100% from the Greek. They didn't use the Latin to translate. I might have looked at the Latin just to get ideas. They even said, hey, we looked at every Bible that's ever been published to get ideas. They said, we looked at the bishop's Bible. We looked at the Geneva Bible. We looked at all these different things. OK, now let me explain to you where all this is coming from. Let me put it all together for you. The word Lucifer is referring to the planet Venus. OK, dictionary.com, definition number one, a proud, rebellious archangel identified with Satan who fell from heaven. Number two, the planet Venus, when appearing as, quote, the morning star. Venus is Lucifer. OK, actually, you could even go back into ancient times, into Latin literature, and find the planet Venus being referred to as Lucifer. That's where that word comes from. The King James translators did not invent that word. Jerome did not invent that word when he translated the Latin Vulgate. No, that word already existed in reference to the planet Venus. So let me explain this. The planet Venus represents the devil or the Antichrist, whereas the sun represents the Lord Jesus Christ. Now, let me explain this and prove this to you. But first of all, I showed you that the dictionary definition of Lucifer is the planet Venus. OK, if you look up ancient Latin literature, you're going to find it referring to the planet Venus. And not only that, if you go to Wikipedia and just type in the word Lucifer, and don't scoff at Wikipedia. Wikipedia has all the sources down at the bottom of the page for you to check it out if you don't like it. The Wikipedia entry, Lucifer, just type in Lucifer. Here's how it starts. Lucifer is a Latin name for the planet Venus in its morning appearances and is often used for mythological and religious figures associated with the planet. Now, let me ask you this. Is Venus a star? Venus is not a star. Venus is an imposter. It is not a star. It is a planet. Now, what is a planet? Go, if you would, to Jude. Go to Jude, and let me tell you where the word planet comes from. The word planet, the English word planet, literally means wanderer. Wanderer is what planet means, and here's why. And I know that this is kind of deep this morning, but I want you to pay attention and get this, because this is important truth from the word of God. So perk up and listen to this. When you look up in the sky, you are seeing the same constellations of stars that your parents and grandparents saw and that people thousands of years saw. Am I right? You look up in the sky, and next year, you're still going to see the Big Dipper. You're still going to see Pleiades and Orion. You're still going to see the same constellations. They don't just dramatically change. They're in the same familiar position. You could buy a book that was printed 40 years ago to tell you which stars to look for in the night sky, and if you go to the right date and the right location and get out your chart and look up, you're going to see what's on that chart. These stars are predictable. The stars are in a certain place, and they're fixed in that position. Does everybody understand what I'm saying? But the planets, on the other hand, they're all over the place. The planets are different this year than they were last year. They're going to be different 100 years from now. 100 years ago, they were in different places. This is why they were originally referred to as wandering stars, wandering stars, because they look like a star, don't they? I mean, to the untrained eye, you could point it out as a star, and people would think it was a star. But is it really a star? No, planets are not stars. They look a little different. But only someone who's trained and understands the difference between a star and a planet can tell the difference, am I right? Most people just look up, oh, look at that bright star. And then you're like, excuse me, that's not a star. That's a planet. That's Jupiter or whatever, if you want to be a know-it-all. So I'm just kidding. But anyway, the point is planets are called wandering stars. And then basically, in our English language, it's just shortened to just wanderers. Planet literally means wander. And not only does it mean to wander in the sense of just going around aimlessly, it also comes from the word which means to lead astray or to deceive or to be deceived or to be led astray. That is what a planet represents. Look what the Bible says in Jude, verse 12. Jude, verse 12 says this. These are spots in your feast of charity when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear. Clouds they are without water, carried about of winds. Trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots, raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame. Watch this. Wandering stars to whom is reserved, the blackness of darkness forever. So God, when he's trying to find illustrations to describe the worst reprobates, and when he's talking about the devil's minions being reserved in chains of darkness in 2 Peter 2, and then in Jude, he talks about the devil's human instruments, reprobates, false teachers, false prophets, and he's comparing them to all these things. He compares them to trees whose fruit withereth. He compares them to raging waves of the sea. And he compares them to wandering stars. So what is a planet an illustration of? Something good? No. A deceiver. Something evil. The sun in the Bible is being used to represent Jesus Christ, the light of the world, giving warmth and light, causing things to grow. The devil is likened unto the planet Venus. That's why he's called Lucifer, which is the name of that planet, and has been the name of that planet for a very long time. Now, what does this have to do with the morning star? Pagans and occultists throughout history have referred to Venus as the morning star. Why? Because if it's early in the morning and you see a bright light in the sky that looks like a star but it's actually a planet, that is the planet Venus. If you've ever been driving in the morning or walking in the morning and you saw very low in the sky a very bright light, you were looking at the planet Venus there. Who's ever seen that and knows what I'm talking about? Oh, look, one of the stars is still visible. It's actually the planet Venus that you're looking at. You're actually looking at the planet Lucifer, you could call it, if you're going by an ancient name for it. And what happens as soon as the sun comes up? It's smoked. I mean, you're not going to see it in the sun because the sun is so much brighter. OK, now stop and think about this. If the sun represents Jesus and the devil is Lucifer, the devil is represented by the planet Venus, think about this now. First of all, he's fake. He's not a real star. People think he's a star, but he's not a real star. He's an imposter. He's actually a wandering star, a planet. He's actually a deceiver. He's someone wicked. Now think about this. Not only that, but when Jesus Christ returns someday, go through it to 2 Thessalonians chapter 2. 2 Thessalonians chapter 2. When Jesus Christ returns one day, who's coming first? Who's going to show up before Jesus comes? The Antichrist is going to show up first. Well, let's see what the Bible says in 2 Thessalonians 2, verse 1. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and by our gathering together unto him, that you be not soon shaken in mind or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand, let no man deceive you by any means, for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposeth and exalted himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. So what do we see here? And if you would flip back to Daniel chapter 8. But we see here that the day of Christ will not come until the man of sin is first revealed, right? Before you have Jesus Christ, you have first coming the Antichrist. Now, of course, it would make no sense for the Antichrist to come second. Nobody's going to fall for him because of the fact that we already have the genuine article here. We already have the real deal. Obviously, the Antichrist has to show up first and then say that he's Jesus. Then the real Jesus shows up. OK, now think about this. What happens in the morning when Venus is on the horizon? First, you have the imposter show up. Hey, everybody, look at me. I'm the morning star. And then what happens? The real morning star comes. The real day star comes, and it's just pshh.
