Satan was kicked out of heaven after Christ's death & resurrection. He was not bound.
WHEN EXACTLY WAS SATAN KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN?
John 12:27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour
John 12:28 Father, glofity thy name: Then came there a voice from heaven saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
John 12:29 The people thereof that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.
John 12:30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
John 12:31 NOW IS THE JUDGEMENT OF THIS WORLD: NOW SHALL THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD BE CAST OUT
Just before Jesus was taken to be crucified, he stated the above. This is when Satan and his angels were CAST out of heaven.
Satan and his angels were never cast out of heaven before this...like in the beginning when Adam and Eve were created....they had full access to heaven, but left their habitation (heaven) to corrupt man on earth, and are still doing it.
How do we know this?...read Job 1:6-7 Satan was there amongst the angels during a meeting in heaven....read what God asked him?
SATAN KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN BUT NOT BOUND...YET
Why was Satan so angry? Because Jesus conquered death, and cast him and his angels out.....
Rev 12:5 And she brought forth a man child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up to God, and to his throne (resurrection)
Rev 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days (saints go into hiding, meeting with each other in secret & being taught the gospel)
Rev 12:7 And there was WAR in HEAVEN Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels.
Rev 12:8 And prevailed not (cas out) neither was their place found any more in heaven.
Rev 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come Salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
Rev 12:11 ....and they overcame him by the blood of the lamb..
Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them (host of heaven) WOE to the INHABITERS of the EARTH and of the sea for the DEVIL is come down unto you having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. (till he's locked bound in prison)
Rev 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto to the EARTH, he persecuted the woman (Zion/Gods church) which brought forth the man Child (Christ)
Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make WAR with the REMNANT of HER SEED, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
This is proof that Satan was not bound. He came down having great wrath and persecuted the woman.
So we learn, that Satan and his angels were cast out of heaven after Christ's resurrection, and not bound, but cast to the earth to persecute Gods followers who have the testimony of Jesus Christ (saints)
You discern the truth. You.
