Satan is granted occasional visits to heaven (Job 1:6). Revelation 12:8 indicates that the visits stop at the future time of Revelation 12:8.

Davy noted: >Satan and his angels still dwelling in heaven> "I threw you down, Guardian cherub> (Ezekiel 28:14) "your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion" (1Peter 5:8)

IMO Satan and his angels were cast down to earth some time ago, hence they dwell among us: o Ezekiel 28:16 o 1Peter 5:8

See Revelation 20:2,7 "thousand years" = "millennium" (etymology is Latin mille= "thousand," annus = "year"). After the 1000 years comes new heavens and earth (Revelation 21:1) as you mentioned.

Davy explained: >which is where Hades is located> >Hades...heavenly dimension> IMO: o Satan and his angels currently roam the earth (1Peter 5:8). o I agree that heaven is another dimension. o Revelation 20:1-3 shows Satan thrown into a pit (after the return of Jesus), and I presume the pit is...

IMO: "Beast" refers to a bestial nature. A wild beast, such as a lion, will kill you and experience no remorse. "Beast" in Revelation 13:1 is a fallen angel sentenced to the "deep," a.k.a. hell, a.k.a. Gehenna (Hebrew בן-הנםגיא = Valley of Hinnom (rubbish heap). "Seven heads" are seven...

IMO "New heavens and earth" arise after the millennial reign of Jesus (Revelation 20:7-22:21). "Thousand years" is indicated in Revelation 20:2,3. The rapture, to which you apparently refer, is noted in 1Thessalonians 4:16-17: "For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of...

Jay Ross noted: >Armageddon> IMO "Armageddon" is an English rendering of Greek Αρμαγεδων, itself a rendering of Hebrew הך מגדו (Har Megiddo) = "Tel Megiddo," referring to the plain of Megiddo at the Eastern edge of the Mediterranean Sea, near Tel Megiddo. Search your internet, Wikipedia "Tel...

Saul (apostle Paul) was from Tarsus, a Roman colony, which made him a Roman citizen. See Acts 22:24-29.

IMO: "Beast" (Revelation 13:1, Greek θηριογ) is a "wild animal." "Beast" in Revelation 13:1 is a fallen angel sentenced to the deep, a.k.a. hell, a.k.a. Gehenna (Hebrew בן-הנםגיא = Valley of Hinnom = rubbish heap). He acts like a "beast," and he supports the human beast. Revelation 13:1...

Luther7 noted: >sin-cursed earthly reign of Jesus is found nowhere in scripture> "Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and *they will reign with him for a thousand years*."...

o Satan and the angels that follow him originally dwelt in heaven (Ezekiel 28:14). o They rebelled and were cast to earth (Ezekiel 28:26, Job 2:2). o Angels that remained faithful to God protect believers (Matthew 18:10). o Angels are incredibly powerful. In 2Kings 19:35-37 a single angel...

o The fallen angles all currently dwell among us (Job 1:7). o Guardian angels protect us from Satan and his angels (Acts 12:8). o Satan and his angels dwell among us (rather than in heaven) because they were cast down. o Satan was cast down before Jesus was born (Ezekiel 28:22-18).

Revelation 16:14 says βασιλεις της οικουμεγης ολης = " kings of all the inhabited land." There was no concept of planet earth in Biblical times. Revelation 19:19 says βαδιλεισ της γης = " kings of the *land.* There was no concept of planet earth in a biblical times.

I know that fire (and lighting) both burn, as another poster suggested. I suppose it could be missiles.

Davy noted: >war in heaven not possible> Satan is currently granted occasional visits to heaven, see Job 1:6-22, Revelation 12:7-17. Hence in the future if he decides not to leave after a visit, he will be cast down.

Rev 7:1, "four corners of the γη" = "land." There was no concept of planet earth in Biblical times. Rev 13:13, similar to 2Kings 2:10. I do not know the nature of the fire.

Brakelite noted: >Satan and one third of all the angels> See Revelation 12:4. >continue to abuse> We have guardian angels to prevent that. See Matthew 18:10. Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda!

Good point, "He shall build the temple of the Lord" (Zechariah 6:13). The Anti-Christ apparently builds some of it, but the temple area was a large complex with buildings and features other than the temple (Naos) itself.
