Zen tells in his "Summary of Zen Garcia and David Carrico discussion of the Pre-Adamic Age and Gap Theory" that Lucifer was allowed to test the loyalty of all the hosts of heaven; every class of angel but that only 1/3 of the angels followed him AND for this insurrection he and all the hosts that supported him in rebellion were banished from the realms above the six heavens.

Zen's quote: "While not much has been written to clarify this accounting, there is a quote from the First Book of Adam and Eve which gives readers insight into this little known about occurrence."

"But now, O Adam, we will make known to you what came over us through him, before his fall from heaven. 9 He gathered together his hosts, and deceived them, promising to give them a great kingdom, a divine nature and other promises he made them. 10. His hosts believed that his word was true, so they yielded to him and renounced the glory of God. 11 he then sent for us - according to the orders in which we were - to come under his command, and to accept his vain promise. But we would not, and we did not take his advice.

12. Then after he had fought with God and had dealt forwardly with Him, he gathered together his hosts and made war with us. And if it had not been for God's strength that was with us, we could not have prevailed against him to hurl him from heaven.

13 But when he fell from among us, there was great joy in heaven, because of his going down from us. For if he had remained in heaven, nothing, not even one angel would have remained in it.

14 But God in His mercy drove him from among us to this dark earth; for he had become darkness itself and a worker of unrighteousness.

His seduction of Eve and impregnation of her with Cain caused all three to transgress the one law concerning the tree of death. Consequentially all three were cast out of Paradise to the lowest region of physical creation, the lower visible Earth. Here the 2nd world age, the age of flesh would begin with the serpent's line and birth of Cain. [unquote]

To add witness to the timing of Satan getting thrown out of heaven, there is the account from Christ/Yahusha Himself in Luke 10:17 and Isaiah 14:12.

Luke 10:17 Context


14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you. 15And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell. 16He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me. 17And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. 18And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

Isaiah 14:12 (KJV)

"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!"

It's quite clear that Christ was saying this as a past event. Lucifer was relegated to the darkness of the earth over which he is called "Prince of the Air". That is his limit. Anything past the tent/dome that the Almighty put over the Earth is off-limits to Lucifer and his angels. In fact, they cannot get back to their former homes. However, that has not stopped him and his minions, through CERN from attempting to allow Satan to not only return but to usurp the very throne of the Most High. He is in the prison of his own choosing when He thought an Evil Thought to rebel against his own Creator.

Therefore it is a mistake to teach that Satan comes down and we go up. That is always quoted by those that believe in a pre-7 year Tribulation Lie. In fact most of them do not even consider the First Earth Age in their teaching.
