Genesis

One of the most familiar interpretations of Revelation 12 is that the dragon drawing a third of the stars from heaven describes Satan taking one third of the angels with him in some prehistoric rebellion. But there is a serious problem with beginning there: Revelation never says these stars are fallen angels.

When most people read Revelation 12, they immediately picture a prehistoric battle in outer space between God’s angels and a supernatural fallen angel named Satan.

No disrespect to John Hagee, Jewish people, or anyone else is intended in this article. This is not an attack on a man, a race, or a nation. It is a challenge to a theological teaching that has become deeply rooted in much of modern Christianity.
