The Chinese worship of the dragon is a survival of the snake cults. [1] In Apostle John’s vision he saw a great red dragon. He wrote: “And his tail drew a third part of the stars of heaven and cast them down in darkness”. [2]
The dragon became the symbolic representation of all Lucifer and his rebel followers. Upon the triumph of Michael, “Gabriel came down from Salvington and bound the dragon (all the rebel leaders) for an age”. “There was war in heaven; Michael’s commander and his angels fought against the dragon”, Lucifer, Satan, and the apostate princes; “and the dragon and his rebellious angels fought but prevailed not”.
