"If you examine Peter 1:19, it refers without doubt to Jesus Christ. This verse calls Jesus Christ "Phosphoros" (in Greek). The Greek word "phosphoros" means Light-bearer or Light-bringer and the Greek word "Phosphoros" and the Latin word "Lucifer" are one hundred percent identical in meaning. "Lucifer" is the perfect translation into Latin of the Greek word "Phosphoros."
The idea that Jesus can be called "lucifer" may be strange to many people in this modern time but the phrases quoted above in Peter 1:119 are translated by Jerome into Latin as follows:
"...donec dies elucescat et lucifer oriatur in cordibus vestris."
Notice that Jerome correctly translated the Greek "phosphoros" into the Latin word "lucifer." Jerome obviously knew that this verse refers to Jesus Christ--yet he wrote "lucifer" with a small "l" and did not capitalize the word. He also knew that he had translated the word "phosphoros" perfectly into Latin."
