In Christian theology, Satan is often described as having been cast out of heaven due to his rebellion against God. This event is traditionally associated with passages like Isaiah 14:12-15 and Ezekiel 28:12-17, which are interpreted as references to his fall. However, the concept of "the third heaven" specifically is more closely linked to the Apostle Paul's mention in 2 Corinthians 12:2, which does not directly relate to Satan's expulsion. Thus, while Satan was cast out of heaven, the idea of "the third heaven" is not explicitly tied to this narrative.
Satan was cast out of heaven before the creation of the world, according to Christian beliefs.
Satan is cast out of heaven in the Christian tradition in the book of Revelation, specifically in Revelation 12:7-9, where it describes a war in heaven and Satan being thrown down to earth.
A third of the angels in Heaven.
No he is not. Satan who's name was Lucifer, was once called the angel of light, was an angel who wanted to be more powerful than God. Lucifer was then cast out of Heaven along with about one-third of the angels in Heaven. The word satan is a Hebrew word that means adversary. Since he was now an adversary of God, the name satan was given to him.
God only cast out one angel which was Satan himself, but at that time he was called Lucifer. Lucifer was known as the angel of worship and praise in heaven. But soon he became so proud and arrogant that he wanted to take the place of God himself. That is the reason he was cast out of heaven and also a third of the angels followed him out of ignorance but they cast themselves out of heaven!!!! Actually, Bible scholars agree that a third of the angels were cast out with Satan: "And another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems.4And his tail swept away a third of the stars of heaven, and threw them to the earth . . . " (Rev. 12:3-4). "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," (Rev. 12:9). Angels were referred to as the stars of heaven, and Satan is often referred to as the morning star because it shines brighter than all the other stars, but disappears at night.
Revelation does mention Satan and his angels being cast from heaven, although there is no suggestion of any being retained.Revelation 12:8-9 (KJV)8And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9And 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. The problem is that this is usually seen as still being in the future - second coming stuff.
