I've had a friend ask me about where it is in the bible
that records the fall of Satan. I know I've read it, but I just can't seem
to put my finger on it. Can someone please help me out??
Jenna, There are several references to Satan being cast out of heaven. They are as follows: Revelation 12:3 Another mysterious sight appeared in the sky. There was a huge red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and a crown on each of his heads. With his tail he dragged a third of the stars out of the sky and threw them down to the earth. He stood in front of the woman, in order to eat her child as soon as it was born. Then she gave birth to a son, who will rule over all nations with an iron rod. But the child was snatched away and taken to God and his throne. The woman fled to the desert, to a place God had prepared for her, where she will be taken care of for 1,260 days. Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, who fought back with his angels; but the dragon was defeated, and he and his angels were not allowed to stay in heaven any longer. The huge dragon was thrown out—that ancient serpent, named the Devil, or Satan, that deceived the whole world. He was thrown down to earth, and all his angels with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven saying, "Now God's salvation has come! Now God has shown his power as King! Now his Messiah has shown his authority! For the one who stood before our God and accused believers day and night has been thrown out of heaven. They won the victory over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the truth which they proclaimed; and they were willing to give up their lives and die. And so be glad, you heavens, and all you that live there! But how terrible for the earth and the sea! For the Devil has come down to you, and he is filled with rage, because he knows that he has only a little time left." Rev. 12:3-12 Luke 10:18 Jesus answered them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Hope this is what you were looking
for. annie
satan's fall is also in Isaiah 14:12-16, the question was How art thou fallen from heaven O Lucifer. the next verces explain how he had fallen from heaven. You can also look in Ezekiel 28:13-19, in this whole chapter he is talking about satan and how he fell from heaven also. I hope this will help. JERRY LANDRY
