The answer of the Lord

He appealed then to the Angels, asking if I failed to act in justice toward them by overthrowing his mighty power. Now he shall feel and know my justice. If he began as a mighty king in heaven to oppose the laws I had given and appeared as a fiery serpent, I ask him: how did his "Golden Orb" get there? Or how did he breathe the BREATH OF LIFE into it?

I soon CREATED MAN to end the strife. I made him lord of this world below and surely showed everything to Adam that I had given to man. Now I shall come to the Serpent and ask him: how did he become a Prince below if I showed him no justice? I gave him power to test his reign, to see how he would act where he could gain subjects. I will let him know through Cain and Abel where I allowed him to show his power. He began as a murderer instantly because his power over man was seen in Cain. Thus he slew his brother instantly. But Abel's blood now cries out for VENGEANCE to show the power of this boasted king.

Do they think I shall protect such a murderer and allow murder to appear in the heavens? It would have been just like Cain and Abel there if I had ever given him a seat in heaven after his pride and malice grew so great. No; just as he surely made the earth mourn, he would turn the heavens into disorder. But since the angels who fell with him judged ME unjust—and they all judged ME so—I raised him up to convince them. To reclaim my honor, I let the fool stay until I had brought them a heavier bill here.

In that way, I shall clear my justice and gain my honor over Satan's host. I will show them the king they boasted of so much. Now I will show their king’s reign in men, where I let Satan guide their every hand. But first I likened him to a king like Saul. I tell you all that when he was free from pride, or appeared little in his own eyes, I gave him power he could not handle. Seeing a DAVID come after him with his ten thousands brought on his doom.
