Bible Question: WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT TELL ABOUT GOD CASTING SATAN AND 1/3 ANGELS OUT OF HEAVEN? THANKS |
Bible Answer: laststep Rev 12 gives this picture. Many believe the first part of Rev 12:1-6 is a picture of time past. And Rev 12:7-17 a picture of time future. In any case Rev 12:4 is believed to symbolize Satan taking one third of the angels with him and Rev 12:9 shows Satan himself being thrown to earth. EdB |
