Where in the Bible can be found the story of the fall of Satan that occurs before the fall of man?

Update:

Christy: Please read Isaiah 14:4ff, and follow the pronoun references.

Update 2:

meister: Fair enough. I have read from beginning of Genesis through the end of Revelation.

Update 3:

G--Dogg: Actually?!!! Uh.... No.

Update 4:

Specious: Isaiah 14:4ff for you too.

Update 5:

God is love: Isaiah 14:4ff for you too. Man has not fallen yet? My goodness. What happened in Genesis 3?

Update 6:

Gina bean-a: Isaiah 14:4ff for you too. Thank you for the Book of Mormon, etc. references.

Update 7:

Flash: (Is that all you are? Sorry, could not help that.) Isaiah 14:4ff for you too, and do not forget to follow the pronoun references. BTW: I think you should give your two points back for pawning me off on to a pastor. :) (The smiley face means that I am joking.) I have read the Bible from the beginning of Genesis to the end of Revelation.

Update 8:

mos joe: The fall of man is what occurs in when Adam and Eve eat the forbidden fruit and get kicked out of the Garden of Eden. See Genesis 3.

Update 9:

Flash: I am interested in that phrase "anyone who teaches otherwise is lieing." Is that found in the Bible? Where?

Update 10:

mos joe: Why would Satan be thrown into the fire if he did not already rebel? Where is the story of that rebellion?

Update 11:

leonard s: You must be reading a different Bible than the one I am referring to. And I do not mean a differing translation. An entirely different sacred scripture.

Update 12:

Christy: Read the following: Ezekiel 28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

And follow the pronoun references.

Update 13:

Christy: Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

Fine. Where is the story telling why he fell from heaven, and does this story narrate events that occurred before mankind's sin?

Update 14:

Christy: Revelation 12:7 is an interesting one. If you read the verses that proceed verse 7, you will see that the events of verse 7 occur after the birth of the child to the woman and her fleeing into the wilderness.

Update 15:

I Love God's Law: Read everything I wrote for Christy; it is ditto for you.

Update 16:

SDW: Note the order of events in Revelation 12.

Update 17:

1st, Thank you all for your responses. It was fun, and as usual I learned some things.

The correct answer is that the fall of Satan is not narrated in the Bible at all. Genesis 6, where the sons of God see the daughters of men are fair, alludes to the most common concept of the fall of the angels in the biblical period, one that occurs after the fall of Adam. A more extended account of this in the biblical period can be found in First Enoch.

The fall of Satan that occurs before the fall of man does not gel into a narrative until after the biblical period. The literary classic that reflects this story is Paradise Lost. The bottom line is that any theological system that depends on the pre-fall of man fall of Satan is not a biblical system.

    The "fall of Satan" is not a biblical account.

    Any verses they post, otherwise, is not talking about Satan.

    If you have more questions feel free to EMAIL me.

    I'm not exactly sure what you are referring to as the fall of man, but start with Revelations chapters 8-22 and Ezekiel chapters 38-39.

    I believe Babylon will fall then the 2nd coming of Christ, and then Satan will be thrown into the fire.

    In Revelation 12:7-17, if you're inclined to examine it out. This is the entire tale. You have been seeking to discover your contradiction on the entrance and it's in the back of the Bible. It could also be another very intriguing studying in Revelation. It tells what's going to occur to devil whilst Jesus returns. God bless you, I wish this is helping.

    There are many verses refering to it but not any story really:

    "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!" Isaiah 14:12. Jesus said, "I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven." Luke 10:18. "Thou wast upon the holy mountain of God." Ezekiel 28:14."Thou wast created." Ezekiel 28:13, 15. "Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth." Ezekiel 28:14. "Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty ... every precious stone was thy covering ... the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. ... Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee." Ezekiel 28:12-15."Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness." Ezekiel 28:17. "For thou hast said in thine heart, ... I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: ... I will be like the most High." Isaiah 14:13, 14."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." Revelation 12:7-9.

    Isaiah 14:12-15 12How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

    13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

    14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

    15Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
