Some cool stuff. (wow, the censor buggered up the word stuffa ge) The following was found on wikipedia.
The Morning Star can refer to Lucifer, or rather vice versa: lucifer is the latin name for the morning star. In the New Testament, Morning Star is a name figuratively given to Christ (Rev. 22:16; comp. 2 Pet. 1:19). When Christ promises that he will give the "morning star" to his faithful ones, he "promises that he will give to them himself, that he will impart to them his own glory and a share in his own royal dominion; for the star is evermore the symbol of royalty (Matt. 2:2), being therefore linked with the sceptre (Num. 24:17). All the glory of the world shall end in being the glory of the Church." Trench's Comm. (This entry incorporates text from Easton's Bible Dictionary, 1897, with some modernisation.) See also Pentagram.
- Morningstar refers both to Lucifer and Jesus.
- Christ mentions the Pentagram as a symbol of royalty.
