Evil originated with Lucifer, who rebelled against the government of God. Before his fall he was a covering cherub, distinguished by his excellence. God made him good and beautiful, as near as possible like Himself. {FLB 66.2}

Det onde opstod hos Lucifer, som gjorde omrør mod Guds regering. Før hans fald var han en skærmende kerub, kendt for sin ophøjethed. Gud gjorde ham god og smuk, så nær så muligt Sig selv.
