On considering the Lord and the adversary who is Satan I consider here the Creator and the worst of His creation. The Lord is the greatest person and is above the creation. He is the only truly good person and is both the source of wisdom and goodness over the creaturehood. Satan is the greatest of wicked creatures and is the adversary to the saints in light. He is a liar, murderer, and thief and has no truth and the truth has never been in him. In this work I consider some more of what Satan is, and some more of who Christ is, and then I consider what an effort of a direct comparison between the two persons would be like.
Satan is the worst of the fallen persons. He is the biggest enemy to what’s good for man and works to blind the minds of nonbelievers lest the light of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ should shine into them. Lucifer, another name for Satan, tries to have it that humans spend eternity in eternal damnation. Lucifer is a being that had desired to be as the holy God and warred against the Lord and has fallen to be the cursed Satan the Devil. Satan is so abominably prideful he tried to tempt the lamb without blemish to bow down and worship him. In the gospel according to Matthew, Christ is reported to have rebuked Satan from having taken part in such an effort.
Jesus Christ, also known as the Lord God almighty, the alpha and the omega, the holy, and the Saviour is the good Lord who is over all of creation and is the source of justice, knowledge, and integrity above all of creaturehood. His creatures outside of His hell all depend upon His mercy. Jesus Christ is the Almighty God. He is love, truth, and the judge above all. Christ is of the holy Trinity, as is Father God and the Holy Ghost. He has revealed of himself to man since the times of Adam. In the book of Jonah, the Lord is described by his servant Jonah as being a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger and of great kindness. I am happy to say that I have known the Lord to be as this as well. Praise God.
Would a direct comparison between Christ and Satan be blasphemous in nature? How could one compare love, truth, and justice with the abominable? Is it love has been so giving to His creation that He would even allow so much freedom as to accommodate a man to make such a comparison? If there ever was a true comparison between the Creator the Lord and His creation Lucifer who wanted to be as the most high what would it look like? Would it be seen that Lucifer is a disappointment to behold and the god of perversion as his desire to be as his Creator was a perverse one?
If Satan was to be put to the test to put in his best effort to be god of man or of woman would the result ultimately get called “freak” and be a grave disappointment to the heavens Lucifer desired to be god of? Methinks yes. In his abominable pride would Lucifer essentially continue as a little fool to try to be god despite the ‘freak’ that resulted and not know any better until the laughs at his expense began to dawn on him that he was an idiot to try to be as God in the first place? Methinks yes. Would it be that in his abominable pride Lucifer would still continue to try to be as God? Once again, methinks yes. Is that what would happen if there ever was a true direct comparison made between God and Satan?
The Lord Jesus Christ who is worthy of his believers living for him with all their heart, mind, soul, and strength is truly incomparably better than all of His creatures. He and He alone is worthy to be worshipped and be called God. Satan is an abomination and a creature destined by Christ his Creator to have the worst fate. He is a deceiver and has bad intentions for other creatures. How is it that a true comparison between the risen Lord and His creature Lucifer wouldn’t essentially be a no brainer?
