Too busy for this non-sense......

Please elaborate on where the Text says the jewels that Lucifer had were his sin.
I'm not appealing to the Devil, I'm appealing to Lucifer, who was the Morning Star, a prime example of what an angel should be/do. Actually, I'm not appealing even to Lucifer, I'm appealing to the reality that in Heaven, he was decked in jewels, BEFORE he had fallen with his I WILL statements. His beauty was not his sin, his attitudes about his beauty, and who he was, became his sins.
Next thing you'll tell me is that choir directors are too much like Satan?
I think you are arguing a losing case on this point.
Thou was perfect in thy ways from the day thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
When Lucifer spoke, he spoke like a musical instrument; it was descant, and music. The Bible teaches us that he lived in a glorious place. In Ezekiel 28:13 it speaks of him living in a place with every precious stone. His apparel was decked with jewels.
The jewels were part of his inhabitance.
