AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 12:7-12War in heaven
About Revelation 12John sees "a woman clothed with the sun," about to give birth, and "a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns," waiting to devour her child, but she brings forth "a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron," and the child is "caught up unto God, and to his throne." There is "war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon," and "the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world." The saints "overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony," and the dragon, knowing "he hath but a short time," makes war "with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ."
