First Heavenly Civil War

## Casualties

*"To be added."*
―To be added.[src]
The **First Heavenly Civil War**, also known as **Lucifer's Rebellion**, or simply as **War in Heaven**, refers to Satan's period of rebellion against God following the latter's command that angels protect mankind, and Satan's transgressions against the Creator which culminated in his exile from Heaven and banishment to Earth.

## Background

### Lucifer's Rally

*"Is it not odd that God doesn't give us anything to rule? All we do is serve Him, while he created an entire planet for humans to dwell on and rule! It's been years since our Creator made them early humans, and they are yet to become the apex predators. But us? We can destroy entire continents with a blow. We're gods. And what do we do? We sit up in the heavens and watch and wait... for God to command us like we're pigs."*
―Lucifer to the Angels[src]One of heaven's mightiest angels was Lucifer. He was God's most magnificent being, made of fire and spirit. In fact, he was the second angel to be created by God, under Michael; after all, he was the bright morning star. Lucifer was the prince of the lower order of angels, while Michael was the prince of all angels.

When God created early humans to test his already favorite creation, Lucifer, despite what he told his brethren, was deeply considered, for he felt as if his authority and power were being insulted. Over numerous years, Lucifer's hatred grew immense when God told the angels he would create the very first true human beings, as the humans prior didn't have a soul, but Adam would have one.

Knowing God would give Adam dominion over the entire Earth, Lucifer, who thought of himself as very highly, would get entirely filled with jealousy. Adam, on the other hand, would be created from dust; although at the very start he was shining brilliantly with light, Adam would only be made from the ground of the earth. He wouldn't be a magnificent being of fire like the angels, but Adam would still have been created to be a reflection of God himself. God said he would love Adam so much that he planned to give him the entire world and everything in it. Adam was to rule over all of life, and all life would serve Adam.

Lucifer, as he was already jealous because he led an army, he was a prince, and he was most beautifully of all, but Lucifer was never given dominion over a world, so when God announced that all angels would have to serve Adam, Lucifer officially had enough. Addressing his legions, he finally proclaimed, "Why should we serve this creature made of dust?" So inspired by rage and jealousy, one-third of the angels joined Lucifer; starting from here, a revolution had begun. Lucifer would now declare their independence from God. Lucifer had declared war on the Almighty himself.

## Conflict

### Attack on Silver City

#### Quest for Self-Destruction

The level of arrogance that Lucifer had reached was at an all-time high. Lucifer genuinely thought he could have defeated his Creator. The pride and the hatred absolutely blinded him to the fact that this was suicide. But there was no rest for the wicked. Lucifer, this highly esteemed chief Cherub, was utterly consumed with rebellion.

So, the next day, 4,760,000 military angels would show up at Lucifer's doorstep. These were commanded by the Archangel Michael and consisted of 120,000 horsemen, 600,000 shield bearers, 700,000 mail-clad horsemen in chariots of fire, 700,000 torch bearers, 800,000 angels with swords of fire, 1,000,000 slingers, 500,000 bearers of axes of fire, 300,000 bearers of fiery crosses, and 400,000 bearers of lamps.

These angels have come to evict Lucifer from his heavenly home, so Lucifer sees Michael and his army approaching. The very last chance is to turn back or slip away forever. They have now officially become Satan, the enemy of God. So, with the fate of Lucifer sealed, the angels charged at each other with a roaring battle cry, and this cosmic clash between good and evil took place. And at this point, there was no more turning back. At this point, Lucifer was a huge being. He was so huge that during this war, every single time Michael and his army would try to get close to him, but Lucifer would simply charge them back, which would disperse Michael's army. His sheer stature was enough to pummel through Michael's defensive lines. It was pretty clear that Lucifer was winning because of his consumption of rage, but that was until God decided to intervene.

Now, Michael and his angels were literally running away from Satan, but God granted his angels the Cross of Light. Not much is known about this cross, but according to Mariuk, this cross bore the legend of the names of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. And when they attacked Satan under this cross, their true power was awakened, and Lucifer and all of his angels would instantly become faint. This is what allowed Michael to swoop in and cast them out in this instance. This cross is what ultimately made Satan fall like lightning from heaven.

Despite the mystery of the cross, Mariuk said it bore the legend of the names of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. That alone makes it clear that whatever the cross was used for, it would be backed by the Godhead in unison. It would be backed by the name of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The cross itself symbolizes God's favor. It tuned in Michael and his angels to God's unstoppable power, so it was his power that cast down Satan like lightning from heaven.
