Jesus: "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven."
What was the first temptation of Jesus in the wilderness? "If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.” And Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.”
Satan was condemned for his pride and envy of God's power. Satan wanted what [wasn't] his to have. He believed he could exist separated from God. "Better to rule in Hell, than to serve in Heaven." But God actually used Satan's plan against him for the ultimate good to be revealed.
St. Michael proclaimed when throwing Lucifer in Hell: "Who is like God."
The original sin was: "that we would be like God, if we ate the fruit of this tree." Which was the knowledge of what sin really is; Separation from God.
But it is the "fruit" of the "tree" that Jesus was nailed to that will let us share in God's Divinity! "Be like God."
"As God shared in our humanity, so will we share in His divinity." Amen!
