Oooops. Christ = Lucifer. That'll go over well.

Yeah, I thought the same thing the first time I saw it. In fact, the KJV bible I own has Morning Star capitalized in Revelation 22:16. I cut and pasted the post you saw from an online version. I found this out one day after attending a "contemporary" service at a Methodist church, during which we sang a hym titled "Daystar Shine Down On Me" or some such title. At the end of the service, a member of the congregation asked the minister what Daystar meant, and he answered that it was another name for Jesus. I went home and looked up "daystar" and the definition came up Morning Star. I looked up Morning Star, and the def came up Venus, as seen in the morning, and also Lucifer. Then I remembered the verse from Revelation wherein Jesus declared himself to be the Morning Star. Blew my mind. I've never been back to church.
