2 Nephi 24
As Isaiah seems to interchange Babylon with Satan and his minions, he states -
"...How hath the oppressor ceased?..." (2 Nephi 24:4)
"All they shall speak and say unto thee: Art thou also become weak as we? Art thou become like unto us?" (2 Nephi 24:10)
"How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!..." (2 Nephi 24:12)
"For thou hast said in thy heart: I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High." (2 Nephi 24:13–14)
Obviously, Satan lived before he came to earth. God did not create him for we are all eternal with our own attributes and personalities before we were born as spirits.
