Revelation 12.9"the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world, he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him".

The problem is that this is usually seen as still being in the future - second coming stuff.

Possibly the most informative text within The Bible concerning Satan is found in

Ezekial 28We know that this account is talking about a man because within the context of scripture Cherubs are angels, not men. Verse 14 mentions the subject as being a cherub.

Also

Isaiah 14:12" How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

When do Christian's ascend to heaven?

never. heaven doesn't exist. If i remember right though the bible does say heaven will come down to earth. so according to the bible the answer is still never. But heaven coming down to earth will happen when Jesus returns and defeats sin/satan. this is not given a specific time, I think it says 'soon' somewhere in the Bible and people have been expecting his return to happen within their lifetime since he died. source: memory of intro to old testament at TWU and church

Where does it say that Satan took a third of Heaven with him to earth?

The Apocalyptic Book of Jubilees specified that nine tenths of the angels fell and were thrown out of heaven, while one tenth remained sinless and loyal to God. Apparently, medieval writers reversed these proportions, which must have seemed too embarrassingly disproportionate.Answer:The symbolism of the parable that is the book of Revelation indicates that Satan [the Dragon - Rev.12:9] swept one-third of God's created angels into his "government coup attempt" on God's throne in heaven in the beginning."...his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven..." (Rev.12:4).Revelation 1:20 reveals the symbol for "angels" is "stars.""...The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches..."It was this "one-third of God's angels" along with Satan who were cast out of heaven onto the earth where they have been restrained and not permitted to leave, pending Judgment Day, according to Peter and Jude [Rev.12:8-9; II Peter 2:4; Jude 1:6][Rev.] - "...neither was their place found any more in heaven. 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."[II Peter] - "...God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell [tartarus: a spiritual condition of restraint], and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto Judgment."[Jude] - "...And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, He hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the Judgment of the Great Day."Satan didn't take one-third of heaven to earth... he took one-third of God's angels into heaven to try to "take the universe" away from God."...thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God... I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High..." (Isa.14:13-14)."And there was war in heaven..." (Rev.12:7).This attempt was thwarted, and Satan didn't take his angels to earth with him... they were all forcibly detained here against their will until Judgment Day."...I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven." (Luke 10:18)


Why do fear lucifer?

Some say "Because Lucifer is Satan, a.k.a. the devil. We can be afraid of him, but we need to say Jesus and God's names aloud and he will run away because he is scared. Trust God!" There is nothing to fear there; the spirits are subject to me. "Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven." (Luke 10:20 AV)
