REVELATION 12:1-8, C. H. Cayce,
1. The woman spoken of in Rev. 12:1, is the church. The heaven spoken of in that verse is the Jewish heaven or Jewish kingdom.
2. The child referred to in Rev. 12:2 was Christ.
3. The red dragon, in Rev. 12:3, was King Herod.
4 and 5. The heaven in Rev. 12:7 does not refer to the place of the final happiness of the Lord’s people. There is no discord, trouble or war in that place. If it referred to the place of ultimate bliss and glory, and there was a war in that place and some cast out of it, God’s people would not be safe when they finally reach that place. Angels are messengers. The church is sometimes referred to as a heaven or “heavenly places.” There was war in the church and the dragon’s angels were cast out with him. This was true in the establishment of Roman Catholicism. This is all figurative language and refers to the church and things that occur here, and not in ultimate glory. The Primitive Baptist, September 19, 1911.
