• God created Lucifer to be a worshipper, but through choice for self, and self-worship, Lucifer chose self over God, and created satan.
• Evil is birthed out of serving self.
• The way that created beings rebel against God, is to worship self.
• Luke 6:45 states that out of our "heart" also called "self" comes evil and wrong motivations.
• Sinful humanity, which is all humans, can only be redeemed with the good news of the Gospel.
• The Kingdom of Satan, which is the Kingdom of self, is always inviting humans to join the exaltation of self.
• The Gospel provides willing humanity a covering of the righteousness of Jesus the Messiah, which saves us from the destruction caused by the worship of self.
• The first step of the Gospel is the humbling of self.
• The only hope for humanity is to humble self, exalt God, and to prefer and serve others.
