IN THIS LESSON

While the woman with a baby flees to the desert, a war breaks out in heaven between the great dragon and the archangel Michael. What does this battle and the dragon’s defeat represent? Why is the dragon called “The accuser of our family”? What does its temporal descent to Earth mean for believers? How can they fight and conquer the dragon?
