The Bible teaches that Lucifer (Satan) was an archangel who, through his own pride, considered himself to be better than God.
The Bible further teaches that Lucifer (Satan) attempted to usurp God and that in the resulting battle was banished along with 30% of all archangels from Heaven.
The Bible teaches that Satan is the source of all evil and that man can be an agent of that evil.
Man must decide to choose between God (good) and Satan (evil).
That choice is called free will.
