[§207] Rev 12:10: The Accuser of the Brethren Is Cast Down

This podcast explains John’s vision in Revelation 12:10, where Satan is cast down from heaven to this earth and a loud voice is heard saying that John heard a loud voice saying in heaven … the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. Satan is called the accuser because he complains, or brings a charge, against those he opposes. Since Satan is the father of all lies, his accusations are false and untrue. Satan accuses his brethren, which includes members and leaders in the premortal church of God. These accusations have their likeness on earth when antichrists persecute, and make accusations against the saints of God. Satan’s day and night accusations symbolize his consistent and persistent efforts to destroy the premortal church and kingdom of God throughout the entirety of the war in heaven.
