Mga Taga-Efeso: 2. 8. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9. Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
11. Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
12. That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
13. But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14. For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
15. Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
16. And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
17. And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
18. For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
19. Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
20. And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Rev 12.14 is pretty clear that mankind is distanced from the presence of Satan, for a period of time.
And...as we know, earthy distance has never been an issue for Satan to possess someone.
Thus...this is simply another way that Revelation repeats the same material with different epithets, and proclaims that The Devil has been bound.
revelation 12:14. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.~;>AS THE WOMAN WERE GIVEN TWO WINGS OF A GREAT EAGLE
SO THAT SHE MAY RUN WITH THE WIND IN THE AIR SUCH AS THIS
THOUGH ITS A STORK LIKE WINGS

Zacarias: 5. 9. Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heaven.
. ... IT IS WRITTEN AS A PROPHESY
AS THE BOOK OF REVELATION IS

Pahayag: 1. 1. The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Pahayag: 1. 2. Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
3. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
... . thats why satan is not has not been bound from all humanity...
AS THEY SAY
HAVE YOU BEEN UNTO THE SEVEN CHURCHES WHICH ARE IN ASIA
AND COMES UNTO THE UNDERSTANDING IN WHY
THE LORD CHRIST JESUS OUR SAVIOUR IS BEEN NAILED UNTO THE CROSS
SO THAT HE MAY WASHED US FROM OUR SINS IN HIS OWN BLOOD
BECAUSE HE LOVED US

Pahayag: 1. 4. John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;

and if it is good to hear words before speaking the word of god that is written in the scriptures
so be it let us hear your words first
and let the scriptures speaks for itself
so that we may know who is the liar
that tells to everyone that
Satan was bound AT The Cross
. ... seems that creature (bowman)
thinks that satan is the sin itself
... . therefore lets tell this to read the scriptures first

1 Juan: 3. 4. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

Then what do we wrestle against. Who accusses us day and nite and you still haven't answered where Satan is bound or how he is god of this world from his confinement?
Eph 6.11 - 16
Put on all the armor of God, for you to be able to stand against the deceit of the Devil, because fighting against flesh and blood is not to us, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of the darkness of this age, against the spiritual powers of evil in the heavenly realms.Because of this, take up all of the armor of God that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having worked out all things, to stand. Then stand firm, "having girded your loins about with Truth" and having put "on the breastplate of righteousness," Isa. 11:5; 59:17 and having shod the feet with the preparation of the "gospel of peace." Isa. 52:7Above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the darts of the evil one being kindled.
Context seals the deal.
The reader is informed that a spiritual battle is going on….NOT between us and The Devil (because he is presently bound), but against the deceit (plural ‘methodeia’) of The Devil.
If this battle was against Satan, himself, then the text would have plainly said so, on a singular basis. Instead, the plural deceit is listed out in plural fashion demonstrating the demonic forces which are roaming free.
This passage ends with the way it started – reiterating that we are NOT in battle with Satan, himself, but the darts (plural ‘belē’), demons, that he is launching at us.

So, according to this logic we wrestle against rogue fallen powers and principalities uncoordinated and without any hierarchy of authority? Or are you saying satan is coordinating his attack from confinement? Not much of a confinement then is it...?
