Revelation 12:14-17 December 19

“Then to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle so that she might fly into the Wilderness, into her place where she is nourished for a time and [two] times and half a time, away from the face of the Serpent…. Then the ground helped the woman. And the ground opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the Dragon cast out of his mouth.”542

To the contrary. In some respects, it chiefly changed merely the nature of the struggle between the Christians on the one hand and the Devil’s party on the other.
