Where Did Sin Begin? Who committed the first sin? Was it mother Eve? No. The first sin ever committed in the entire universe was committed by the great cherub Lucifer, who became Satan the devil. If we are going to understand the root cause of sin in humanity, we must look to Satan’s life and learn from his mistakes. What caused Lucifer to sin? “Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity [lawlessness] was found in thee” (Ezekiel 28:14-15). God had specially created Lucifer to be a great angel. God had a great purpose for Lucifer. He was trained at the very throne of God in order to administer the government of God on the Earth. Lucifer saw how God the Father, and the God known as the Logos lived. He saw firsthand the fruits of their righteousness and character. He also had inside knowledge as to God’s plans for the universe. Ezekiel 28:12 describes Lucifer as a being that “sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.” God gave Lucifer everything that he needed to be successful. But something went tragically wrong.
