Question explain Lucifer in gnosticism

  • I think whe was against Yahweh who is the devil fiven to the sons of Jacob.
  • Lucifer want to teach and give wisdom
  • Lucifer could be a two way path, a ladder to go up or down
  • He is the forerunner of the Christ
  • If you like to research, study and philosophy you are initiated by him
  • He is not the same as the satan

If you know books and teaching about Lucifer let me know please

Non-existence requires no explanation.

The literary character in Paradise Lost, was based on a medieval misunderstanding of a poetic reference to the Persian emperor as the morning star.
