You're not a Fallen Angel



In most Christian denominations, a fallen angel is an angel who has been exiled or banished from Heaven.

Often such banishment is a punishment for disobeying or rebelling against God. The best-known fallen angel is Lucifer. Lucifer is a name frequently given to Satan in Christian belief. This usage stems from a particular interpretation, as a reference to a fallen angel, of a passage in the Bible (Isaiah 14:3-20) that speaks of someone who is given the name of "Day Star" or "Morning Star" (in Latin, Lucifer) as fallen from heaven. The Greek etymological synonym of Lucifer, Εωσφόρος (Eosphoros, "light-bearer")[1] [2] is used of the morning star in 2 Peter 1:19 and elsewhere with no relation to Satan. But Satan is called Lucifer in many writings later than the Bible, notably in Milton's Paradise Lost (7.131-134, among others), because, according to Milton, Satan was "brighter once amidst the host of Angels, than that star the stars among."[3]
In Islam, Iblis was a jinn and not a fallen angel. Iblis is referred to the devil who disobeyed Allahs command to bow down to Adam who was the first being made by soil. Iblis stated that he will not bow to Adam as he is made of mud and Iblis is made of fire. He did state he will bow down to God as he is his creator. The devil was banished to hell and the devil now tries to persuade mankind to do wrong in order to compete with God himself.

The above passage was copied from Wikipedia.

After finished the Supernatural, i came across the name Lucifer, then i began to search for it, then i saw a familiar word--> Fallen Angel.
Fallen angel? Someone used to have that name previously...and i used to write the "fallen angel" for that particular person. Without knowing what fallen angel means, and during that time, i just feel that, oh..what a Cool name..

Besides, i receive no objection regarding this matter, so just keep on calling n calling..
Till now, only i know what a fallen angel means...
Sorry, for the stupid-ness and innocent-ness.@__@
You never told me why you choose this name, and i have no curiosity that urge me to ask you why...Is it that you also don't have any idea on this or what?

From now on, you are neither the fallen angel nor the mornng star...
Sorry, from the bottom of my heart ^^

** Do correct me if there are any mistakes...
