This is not about power sharing David L. The Dr. level reports show this entity in the Bible as Lucifer. If you do not want to believe that, that is your right.
From what I have read, the serpent/Lucifer/Satan/the Devil was created as the most beautiful, and smartest of all Angels. The morning star. From what I have read, Lucifer was not happy with G-d’s idea to make man from the soil in G-d’s image, and give him control of the earth. Plus, G-d gave Satan an order to go show respect to Adam.
Satan is listed as god,(a false god), of this world system, because Eve was tempted to eat of the tree of knowledge, and Adam ate also. Lucifer’s pride caused him to lie to Eve.
Adam did not want to lose Eve, so he sinned, ate the fruit, and died in Spirit, but not a physical death at that time. G-d needs a perfect sin offering, but gave Adam and Eve grace for Adam’s dying for his fellow human.
Satan became the defacto ruler through lies, and hate, and was cursed. Later, we see the sons of G-d, (fallen Angels), changing the DNA of mankind,(giants), so the Word can not come into the world.
Then Noah.
Then back to the Golith,(giant), story above.
As you know, within Christianty Christ won the title of this world back from Satan, by his sinless blood on the cross. For us, Christ rose from the dead, and sits on the right hand of G-d the Father.
Jews await the coming of Christ with power to rule the world. Christians await the second coming of Christ to rule with power, as he has earned the title of this world back from the Serpent.
I realize you already understand what I have written, and I am not writting anything you do not already know.
Good luck to you, and have a great evening. I have enjoyed reading your posts.
