Question: In a few different English versions of the Bible, Isaiah 14:12 begins with something like: 

> 
> How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! (KJV)
> 
> 
> 

I thought, however, that Jesus was son of the morning.

Does anyone think this Isaiah passage was translated incorrectly, and that maybe it should be "son of *mourning*" instead of "son of the morning"? 

What about Satanail (or *Satanial*?), or Samuel? Is either one of *these* more properly Satan's name?

Answer: 
From the CSI website comes the following (from the drop-down menu "About Us"):

> The Church of South India is the result of the union of churches of varying traditions Anglican, Methodist, Congregational, Presbyterian, and Reformed. It was inaugurated in September 1947, after protracted negotiation among the churches concerned. Organized into 24 dioceses, each under the spiritual supervision of a bishop, the church as a whole is governed by a synod, which elects a moderator (presiding bishop) every 2 years. Episcopacy is thus combined with Synodical government, and the church explicitly recognizes that Episcopal, Presbyterian, and congregational elements are all necessary for the church's life. The Scriptures are the ultimate standard of faith and practice. The historic creeds are accepted as interpreting the biblical faith, and the sacraments of baptism and the Lord's Supper are recognized as of binding obligation.

Based on this excerpt from CSI's website, I'd say you would be safe in visiting churches with the following words in their names:

> 
> * Anglican
> * Methodist
> * Congregational
> * Presbyterian
> * Reformed

From the CSI's statement of faith, as quoted by [gracelightcity](https://gracelightcity.wordpress.com/2011/04/03/doctrinal-beliefs-of-the-church-of-south-india/):

> 
> “. . . the Scriptures are the ultimate standard of faith and practice. The historic creeds are accepted as interpreting the biblical faith, and the sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s Supper are recognized as of binding obligation.”

Given the Church of South India's emphasis on the Word of God being
the final word in both faith and practice, I'd stick with churches which have a similar commitment to the Bible.[![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/cw0MM.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/cw0MM.png)

That you are "struggling to find the right church" is a good sign. I recommend you pick out a church with one of the five key words in it (as listed above) and see if that church has a website to which you can go for further information. Does something you read about a given church resonate strongly within you? If so, visit that church. See if you feel comfortable there. Ask yourself if the church members there make you feel welcomed, accepted, and loved. If so, perhaps the Holy Spirit is indicating that that church is for you. If not, try another church.

In conclusion, the matter of choosing a church to be your home church is very important. Church "shopping" can sometimes be a daunting task, but the criteria for choosing should be pretty much the same for any Christian. More specifically, the church you choose to be your home church should be a place where you are fed spiritually, experience true fellowship in the Holy Spirit, and are "put to work" in a ministry in which your spiritual gift-mix can be used to edify that local assembly of believers and bring glory to God.

I wish you well in the process!
**The Church of South India currently aligns under Anglican Communion** [Wikipedia].

It formed in 1947 and is the second largest Christian denomination in Southern India behind Roman Catholic, currently claiming 4 million parishioners, 11,000 ministers, 100 hospitals, 2000 schools, and 130 colleges.

It absorbed Calvinist denominations at some point and maintains a certain degree of dogma suggesting such. However, it's sacraments, liturgy, and hierarchy are Anglican in origin [this is all Wikipedia].

Socially, it's course has become more liberal in the last 10 years, ordaining female ministers and being (perhaps reluctantly) supportive of the LGBTQ community.

**An Anglican church seems like your best first choice.** But I liked the comment mentioning any church is better than staying at home!
