DIANA - I am LDS. My friend who is a different religion, says the War in Heaven isn't mentioned in the Bible it is only a Mormon thing. Is this true? If not where does it mention the War in Heaven in the Bible.

JOEL - In Revelation 12:7-9 we read:

"And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."

So it is mentioned in the Bible but because most other Christian religions do not believe in a pre-earth life, they have their own interpretation on these scriptures.
(See also Isaiah 14:12-15 and Luke 10:17-18)
