The Sword of Gilead & The Book of Angels

                    Revelation  20:14,  “Then  Death  and  Hades
            were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.”
            Revelation 20:15, “And anyone not found written in
            the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.”
                    Clearly  then,  the  Devil  is  not  in  hell  but
            here on earth and in the heavenly realms, and so
            our  battle  is  not  against  human  forces.  In
            Ephesians Ch 6:12 it states, “Our battle (Christian)
            is  not  against  human  forces,  but  against
            principalities and powers, the rulers of this world
            of darkness, the evil spirits in regions above.”
                    Notice  in  this  text,  and  it  is  not  the  only
            one that refers to this, it says that ‘our battle is not
            against  human  forces’,  that  is  not  where  the
            battleground is, ‘it is with principalities’ as I have
            explained. These are angelic names and ‘the rulers
            of  this  world  of  darkness,  the  evil  spirits  in
            regions above,” that is, in heavenly places and so
            the hierarchical structure I have explained. Due to
            this he is, Prince of the Air, Lord of the Air.
                    So,  in Ephesians 6:12,  we  can  understand
            that the devil is not in hell but  has a stronghold
            and  headquarters  in  the  heavens.  From  there  he
            rules  billions  and  billions  of  fallen,  rebellious
            angels,  who  assumed  the  roles  of  principalities
            and powers and their role is to influence the mind
            of man and bring them to destruction. They have
            delegated  areas  of  authority,  divided  up  over
            empires  and  countries,  states,  cities,  and
