Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know--God knows. So to be honest, I don’t know if the angels were kicked out of the third heaven or the second heaven. If you don’t mind showing me in scripture where it says the angels who follow Lucifer were kicked out of the third heaven. And while you are at it, don’t forget to show me where it says there is a VACANCY you previously mentioned. Hi Spock, Well we know where Satan and his fallen angels are now - in the universal heaven, as Michael & his angels cast them out of there in the trib. So...Lucifer & his fallen angels, therefore came from higher up - the third heaven, the angelic realm. Where do you think the angels reside? With Satan and his fallen angels or higher up. If so then count - 1. atmospheric heaven, 2. Universe, 3. angelic realm 3d heaven. So when Lucifer was cast out and his authority and power, his throne, in the angelic realm was taken away, do you know of any angel given that position? Marilyn.

God made all thrones, (Col. 1: 16) including the throne that Lucifer held for a while. So when Lucifer proved unworthy to hold that position, do you think God said, "Woops, made a boo boo there, I wont let anyone else have that position, that throne ever again." Obviously God didn`t say that, as He is omniscient, (all knowing) and foresaw that angels, even one as mighty and beautiful as Lucifer, would not be able to rule righteously except they humbled themselves under God. Lucifer was far from humble, and pride saw him fall. But God`s desire to have righteous rulership in every realm He created, will come about. It`s just that now we & the angels know, that no angel can rule there ever again. Marilyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JESUS certainly did not try to hide the fact that satan himself abounded around Him. Jesus spoke out loud to satan, and even acknowledge that satan was the one responsible for Peter trying to talk JESUS out of dying on the cross. Was JESUS tempted by satan in the wilderness for 40 days or not? Why would we need a NEW earth if this present one was not overcome by satan and his hordes of demons who followed him down as he was cast down from heaven 'as fast as lighting"? Get real, Christians...even atheists, agnostics and devil worshippers know that they can instantly get satan's attention because he is so close, walking around, as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Satan cannot do that if he were trapped in some sort of atmospheric level, realm, or third heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means their power will be limited to just the earth. `So the great dragon was cast out, that Serpent of old called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he WAS CAST OUT TO THE EARTH, and his angels with him.` (Rev. 12: 9) Marilyn.

Do you honestly believe that other human beings exist on other planets? Wouldn't that mean that there would have to be a Christmas and an Easter on all existing planets that would be hospitable for human inhabitation? EARTH, as we know it, is the only place that GOD formed man out of the soil..GOD did not send His Son planet hopping around to the billions of other planets in billions of other galaxies to be born of a VIRGIN and be crucified over and over again...

Appreciate you listening and responding, bro. Marilyn. Well, knowing in Rev 12 that “the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth and his angels with him.....and there was no longer a place for them IN HEAVEN” so I suppose they must be above the earths atmosphere to be thrown down to earth (I assume that means both the land and atmosphere). So I guess we can infer this is the 2nd heaven. They obviously are in some heaven today, so the 2nd heaven makes sense. Regarding the “throne vacancy” honestly, I have no thoughts on that one. You didn’t provide a scripture reference so I guess you just assumed there is a vacancy for that throne. I will play along for now because I’m not sure where you are going with this. i presume you are giving me this backdrop because you are building your case to show me why the rapture must take place before the 70th week begins, right? At least, that was the question I asked of you a while back, right? So, when you wake up and have time, lead on dear sister. Oh, and pleasant dreams....mine were weird! spock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the readers, consider this image as myth. The truth is, the rapture will take place just before the start of the Day of the Lord, which begins at the 6th seal, then the 70th week will begin with the 7th seal, and the abomination event that will divide the week will take place at the 7th trumpet. The first 6 trumpet judgments are in the first half of the week. The church is GONE. Only a remnant is left, as shown in Rev. 12. Note on Rev. 12:11 This is NOT a "from / to" statement. The question was asked, "how long to the END of these wonders. The start of these wonders was understood to be 12:1 - the start of the time of great trouble. Daniel was told, 1260 days - to the end. We know this to be truth from Revelation. But Daniel still did not understand and asked again, not about the start, but about the end. The answer then was given again, The starting point would be the time the daily sacrifice is taken away WHICH WILL ALSO BE the very time the abomination is set up. Setting up the abomination will CAUSE the daily sacrifices to be taken away. So now the Starting point has been pinpointed. And from that starting point, a different end is given: 1290 days or 30 days LONGER than the 1260. What they can this mean? It is very simple: the week will end at the 7th vial shown in Rev. 16, but another very important event will occur 30 days later. It may well be Christ's coming and capturing the Beast and False prophet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
