#1 from Lorne Welwood on August 19, 2009

I was away and missed church the weekend Tim preached this. I just listened online. Very sobering.

As I heard Tim speak about what is truly evil, he said, “The devil is evil.” Then I recalled the words of Lucifer as Isaiah 14 recounts them and their tone is a lot like the “center of the universe” entrepreneur of James:

“I will ascend to heaven;
    I will raise my throne
    above the stars of God;
    I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,
    on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain.

I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;
    I will make myself like the Most High.”
