Chapters 8 to 9 - Christ’s Teachings and Today’s Christianity

- 27 - • Lucifer himself is the only one who cannot return to God until the last of those he led astray has reached that goal. He cannot do so, not even if he were to attempt it by reason of a change of heart. Also, he may not, even if he should early see the error of his ways, urge any of the fallen spirits to reform or even aid them with his advice in order thereby to hasten his own return to God. This is the just fate that rests upon him as the original instigator, and which he cannot change. The Redemption of all of those who had fallen away from God, even of Lucifer, is the glad tidings told not only in the epistles of Paul, but shown to the prophets of the Old Covenant in their visions. These are the glad tidings to which the Revelation of John refers with the words: Revelation 10: 7: ‘But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound the trumpet, then will be accomplished God's mysterious Plan of Salvation, as he had imparted in the glad tidings to his servants, the prophets.’
