Actually Lucifer doesn't refer to Satan it refers to a lineage of the kings of Babylon.
Satan is referred to as an angel of light but in the sense that he pretends to shine light. His light brings a spiritual darkness not spiritual enlightenment.

I didn't know that it related to Babylon... I thought Lucifer is a greek word.

It might be. Remember that the Bible was written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek not English.
Much of the wrong interpretations of the Bible come from bad translations done in the past. Unfortunately the King James Bible is one of the worst for stuff added that isn’t in original texts.
Christian chruch leaders seem to me like they don't understand how damaging is to add/remove something from their religion's text.

Jesus was against them. He called them wolves in sheep’s clothing. They aren’t Christians because they don’t actually teach Jesus’ teachings but they’re own traditions.
Take for example Christmas. Nowhere in the Bible does it mention the date of Jesus’ birthday. Seems odd if we’re supposed to celebrate it.
But the Bible only mentions two birthdays and both ended up with people being beheaded, one was Jesus’ cousin.
Not once does it imply we should celebrate birthdays let alone Jesus’ which never happened in December.
Once again, earthly traditions rather than heavenly wisdom is taught by most religions.
Yeah, heard about that... Some Muslims celebrate Christmas and/or New Years (because to them it's just a holiday) so I heard a lot of our scholars warn against doing that, telling us the Pagan origins of Christmas, so I know this.
