Spiritual Warfare - The Heavenly War: Class One

The Heavenly War The War in Heaven The Knowledge of both good and evil has caused war inHeaven as well as on Earth. Lucifer (aka Satan, Serpent, Dragon, and the Devil)was the Cherub who covered the presence of God. He saw the beauty of God in theHoly Mountain and chose to exalt himself in his heart to be like unto God inhis pride. God charged him, therefore, with the sin. Through Lucifer’sTrafficking (deception and merchandise), he deceived a third of the angels ofGod chose to fall into the same sins that he did. This led to a war inheaven where God divided the light from the darkness. Michael and his angelsfought against the Dragon and his angels. After the war was over, Satan and Hisangels were cast out of Heaven unto the Earth (to await their final sentence). Ezekiel 28:11-19Isaiah 14:12-17 Revelation 12:7-9 God sets the Firmament Boundary Between Heaven and EarthTo set a boundary between Day and Night, Good and Evil, God created a firmament between the waters: The waters (creative elements) were separated to establish the Heavens and the Earth. From these waters under the firmament, God created the Earth and all that is within it. The firmament was called Heaven – the sky, the expanse above the Earth. That which is above the firmament is the place where God and His angels dwell. Some call the second (and even the third) heaven. Neither Satan nor his angels can ascend back into the Heavens. There is only one way to ascend into Heaven – through Jesus Christ.Genesis 1:6-10Job 4:18Psalms 103:20
