Where did Satan come from

Who was Lucifer & was there Pre Adamic creation, as Lucifer fall and his being cast to the earth was before this creation and Adamic race?

Isaiah 14: 12-15 

How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High." But you are brought down to the grave, to the depths of the pit. 

Ezekiel 28: 12-17

 "Son of man, take up a lament concerning the king of

Tyre and say to him: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: "'You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. You were in Eden , the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald, chrysolite, onyx and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared. You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you. Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones. Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.

Revelation 12: 4 

His tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child the moment it was born. 

Luke 10: 18 

He replied, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.

Satan also referred to as "Lucifer" can mean "Light-Bringer" or "Day Star." n Ezekiel he is called "the anointed cherub, who covers," which meant he was one of the chief angels whose wings covered God's throne in heaven and walked amongst the fiery stone. He is specifically shown to be a created being, described as the model of perfection, full of wisdom. Also in Ezekiel he was called the King of Tyre. Lucifer to his own peril grew proud and vain in his beauty. He began to become envious of God's authority over the universe; he schemed & induces other angels to support him and subsequently with one third of the angels attempted to lead a revolt to overthrow God and take the throne for him. As true to any whom allow pride to inflate their ego's he quickly found himself stepping out well beyond his abilities and was quickly defeated and subsequently judged by Almighty God. The archangel Lucifer is cast along with his angelic troops back to the earth

Foot Note: Pre Adamic creation

God originally created the earth with such perfection and beauty that the angels shouted with joy! Our Creator does all things in an organized manner and completes all His works in exquisite splendor. But the earth had somehow become formless and chaotic so that God had to refashion it before man could be created.

Genesis 1: 1-2

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 

Job 38: 4-7 

"Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation? Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone-- while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy? 

Psalm 104: 30 

When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the earth. 

1 Corinthians 14:33 

For God is not a God of disorder but of peace. As in all the congregations of the saints.

In the early Jewish writings , including the book of Jashar and Kebra Hagash , it speaks of god charging angels abode on the earth before creation of man , remember in the Ezekiel 28:prophecy Satan was in charge of Eden as a anointed cherubim before his fall , so maybe he was the landlord of Eden and ruled over angels under him who lived on the earth, could give rise to the cities of Atlantis etc abodes of these angels ,its interesting but a bit vague , however it would explain those nations he deceived. 

Pre Adamic Humans or Sub Human Race. 

How did Lucifer become Satan

Ezekiel 28: 15-17

You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you. Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones. Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.

Matthew 13: 38-39 

The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. 

1 Peter 5: 8 

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 

Revelation 9: 11 

They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon. 

Revelation 12: 9-10 

The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.

Are Satan and his demons bound to this earth

2 Peter 2: 4 

For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment; 

Jude 6 

And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their own home-- these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.

When God cast them back down to earth, He placed restrictions on their powers and limited them to "their proper domain" or "first estate," that is, the earth. Here, they await their judgment for their rebellion. "Hell".

In 2 Peter2: 4 (For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment)

Is tartaroo, a place of restraint for the wicked. Though Satan himself may appear before God's throne in heaven, he and his demons can do only what God allows. 

Job 1: 6-12 

One day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them. The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Satan answered the LORD, "From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it." Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." "Does Job fear God for nothing?" Satan replied. "Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. But stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face." The LORD said to Satan, "Very well, then, everything he has is in your hands, but on the man himself do not lay a finger." Then Satan went out from the presence of the LORD. 

Job 2: 1-7

On another day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them to present himself before him. And the LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Satan answered the LORD, "From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it." Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil. And he still maintains his integrity, though you incited me against him to ruin him without any reason." "Skin for skin!" Satan replied. "A man will give all he has for his own life. But stretch out your hand and strike his flesh and bones, and he will surely curse you to your face." The LORD said to Satan, "Very well, then, he is in your hands; but you must spare his life." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

Is Satan the god of this age world, KJV

2 Corinthians 4: 4 

In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Ephesians 2: 1-3 

As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. 

1 John 5: 19 

We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. 

Revelation 12: 9 

The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Has Satan been disqualified as ruler of this earth

John 12: 27-33

"Now my heart is troubled, and what shall I say? "Father, save me from this hour'? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. Father, glorify your name!" Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again." The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him. Jesus said, "This voice was for your benefit, not mine. Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself." He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die. 

John 14: 30 

I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold on me, 

John 16: 11 

....and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned. 

Colossians 1: 13 

For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 

Colossians 2: 15 

And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. 

Hebrews 2: 9 

But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone. 

Hebrews 2: 14-15

Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death--that is, the devil-- and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.

What is Satan's ultimate fate

Revelation 20: 7-10

When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth--Gog and Magog--to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

After the thousand years of imprisonment, Satan will be released for a short while. During his parole, he will again unite some of the nations and take them to war against God's people. But this rebellion will be summarily ended when God sends fire out of heaven to destroy them. Because he is spirit and cannot die, the Devil will then be sentenced to eternal torment in the Lake of Fire. Finally, God and man will be rid of their chief enemy, and peace will flourish for all eternity!
