What is the kingdom referred to in Revelation 12:10?
The kingdom in Revelation 12:10 is the glorious kingdom of God that He will rule and reign upon the earth. It has been in view since the beginning of human experience, and after Satan is cast out, the angelic host declares salvation, strength, the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come.
Les explains that Revelation 12:10 follows Satan's final access into the throne room, or heaven, after the war in which Michael and the holy angels fought and defeated Satan, and he was cast out. Verse 10 then says, "now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ." This kingdom has been in view ever since the beginning of the human experience: the glorious kingdom God is going to rule and reign upon the earth. Now it is beginning to get close, so the angelic host can announce it. The verse adds that the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accused them before God day and night. Satan is the accuser, and he accuses believers, running to tell God every time we sin and fail.
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
