He became dissatisfied because all the secrets of God’s purposes were not confided to him, and he entirely disregarded that which was revealed concerning his own work in the lofty position assigned him.

It was thus that Lucifer lost his place in heaven.
He became dissatisfied because all the secrets of God’s purposes were not confided to him, and he entirely disregarded that which was revealed concerning his own work in the lofty position assigned him.
By arousing the same discontent in the angels under his command, he caused their fall.
*Now he seeks to imbue the minds of men with the same spirit and to lead them also to disregard the direct commands of God”.
