What does the Bible say about Satan's defeat?

Answered in 4 sources

The Bible teaches that Satan was defeated at the cross of Christ, where he was cast out and his power over believers was broken.

According to Revelation 12:9, Satan, referred to as the 'great dragon,' was cast out of heaven, symbolizing his defeat. This casting out is linked to the crucifixion of Christ as seen in John 12:31, where Jesus states that the 'Prince of this world' will be cast out at His death. This signifies that through Christ’s redemptive work, Satan's authority was curtailed, making it impossible for him to accuse the elect successfully. Believers can rest assured in their safety and justification through the blood of Christ, as their sins have been paid for in full, rendering Satan's accusations powerless against them.
