The kingdom of darkness was started by Satan and a host of fallen angels. The Bible tells how this kingdom of darkness was created. Satan seduced one-third of the angelic host, and proceeded to organize an war against God and the two-thirds of the angelic host. Satan and his one-third of the fallen angels lost the battle against God and two-thirds of the angelic host. They were expelled from heaven to earth. What an event! Jesus describes it as a light show in the heavens. He (Jesus) replied, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven" (Luke 10:18 NIV). You can not fight against God and win!In Revelation 12:3,4a,7-9, the Bible tells us about Satan and his kingdom of darkness: Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on his heads. His tail swept a third of the stars (angels) out of the sky and flung them to earth. And there was a war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down, that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
