Best Answer
A:

The Christian tradition of fallen angels has changed and evolved in many different directions, particularly during the Middle Ages. The Apocalyptic Book of Jubilees originally specified that nine tenths of the angels fell while one tenth remained sinless and loyal to God. Medieval writers later reversed these proportions, for a 'more realistic' nine tenths remaining loyal to God.

Answer:

Biblicallly, many scholars point to these verses when revealing the number of fallen angels - now demons who revolted with the devil - the total being 1/3 of all (in the billions).

Commonly, Satan who became the devil is called the 'dragon' and angels are referred to as 'stars:'

Revelation 12:3-5New King James Version (NKJV)

3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads. 4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born. 5 She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was caught up to God and His throne.

Did the fallen angeles have comunaction with godly angelesin heaven?

Only before the angels became "fallen" did they have any communication with the holy angels. After the fall, they have not had any communication with one another. But Satan communicates with God (see Job) and the fallen angels have also communicated with Christ, on occasion. Johnny

Do fallen angels fall in love?

I'll give you the realistic and fantasy side, fallen angels are part of religion, Christian as in the bible, fallen angels are former angels of God cast out of heaven, down to earth where they do bidding of Satan, (the leader) who started to rebel against God, today fallen angels descise themselves as one of us and temp you, they can be the hot guy on the corner offering you drugs, or simply someone passing by, just like the good angels here, demons r the same thing as fallen angels, they can be in human form or spirit. But I don't think they'd be falling In love with mortals


Where can you read about Fallen Angels?

Satan is the chief of the fallen Angels. Isaiah 14:12-20 reveals his demise. Verse 12 says: "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer (Satan), son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!"Michael, the Archangel, in the end will make war with Satan, who will be defeated, he and his angels cast out of Heaven with him. "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." Revelation 12:7-9.Jesus confirmed Satan being cast out of Heaven: '"And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven." Luke 10:18.While there are probably other works of literature about fallen angels, Billy Graham's book, Angels, is probably one of the most extensive and definitive modern books, which contains a chapter on "Lucifer and the Angelic Rebellion." As the Scripture indicates, this volume also shows that, when Satan (Lucifer) fell, about one third of the angels fell with him. There are also some articles online for one to examine, but the true definitive work is the Bible.

Where in the Bible does it state that the devil was a fallen angel?

Satan and the "one-third" of God's created angels who followed him in his rebellion against God's Government were "cast back to earth" from whence they launched their attack."...the great Dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: HE WAS CAST OUT [of heaven] INTO THE EARTH, and HIS ANGELS WERE CAST OUT WITH HIM." (Rev.12:9)Jesus Christ [the Almighty Creator God of the Old Testament - John 1:3 & 10] says: "...I beheld Satan as lightning FALL FROM HEAVEN." (Luke 10:18)Jesus was there. He saw it... and is an eye-witness to it.
