Revelation 12:7-9 ESV
Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, but he was defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
Angels can choose God as shown by Satan and his followers who did not. They are created in the light yet can choose the darkness. Men, who are born into the darkness, can choose the light.
When we define heaven as being in the presence of God, both men and angels have rejected the Creator.
There is choice in heaven and earth. Satan chose to rebel. The bride of Christ chooses to obey.
Satan falls to the earth and the bride rises from that same earth and ascends into heaven. Choice evokes the divine exchange and the light is separated from the darkness.
