2 Peter 3:8-10 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing,
that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a
thousand years as one day.
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men
count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing
that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief
in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a
great noise, and the elements (the elements are the evil things
of this world) shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and
the works that are therein shall be burned up. (Evil things
burned up)
The day of the Lord will come as a thief in the
night means, you don't have the seal of God in your forehead.
You don't know God's word or plan.
Revelation 20:1 And I saw an
angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless
pit and a great chain in his hand.
-
This
angel is Michael, the Archangel.
-
Revelation 12:7 And there was war in
heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the
dragon fought and his angels,
-
8 And prevailed not; neither was
their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was
cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which
deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his
angels were cast out with him.
-
The chain and pit, whatever they
may be composed of, are literal.
-
Aramaic the word "chain", means "a
band that can totally hold".
-
Daniel 12:1
And at that time shall Michael stand up, the
great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and
there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was
a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people
shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the
book.
-
Daniel 10:21 But I will shew thee that which is noted in the
scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in
these things, but Michael your prince.
-
The Millennium Begins, 2 Peter 3:8. The kingdoms of this
world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ;
and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Revelation 20:1 And I saw an angel (Michael) come down from heaven, having the
key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And
he (Michael) laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil,
and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3 And cast him into
the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that
he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years
should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little
season.
-
Revelation 12 - Michael cast out
Satan
into the earth with his angels
-
Pit of lies by Satan, his seed and his angels
-
Good study = Revelation 12, 20, Daniel 8, 10, 12 and the book of
Joel
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old
serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand
years,
-
Note the different names used here
-
This is done so there won't be a
shadow of a doubt about whom we are talking about
-
At this time, Satan's seed
are still here, but his influence on them is utterly locked away.
-
Do you see the greatness,
graciousness, goodness and love of God?
-
Isaiah 14 Even Satan's seed will have a
opportunity not to be influenced by their father and will listen to
the elect's teachings and learn the truth, and they will then have a
choice when Satan is released again.
-
This is just.
3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and
shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive
the
nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled:
and after that he must be loosed a little season.
-
Who goes into the pit?
Satan, This is the man that deceive all people that have not studied God's
Word.
-
Many people ask, why doesn't God just leave
Satan locked up, and be done with Satan. We have a fair and just God. The first fruits, or the
very elect, had to stand and
confront him and have already overcome. Now the others must confront and overcome Satan
at the end of the millennium.
-
Satan, another name of Lucifer
-
Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art
thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken
the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will
ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount
of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides
of the pit.
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and
consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made
the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed
the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his
prisoners?
18 All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie
in glory, every one in his own house.
19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable
branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain,
thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones
of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.
-
2nd beast the
8th king, Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old
serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole
world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with
him.
-
Who's the 2nd beast?
-
Revelation 13:11 And I beheld another
beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a
lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him,
and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the
first
beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from
heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those
miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to
them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the
beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast,
that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that
as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and
bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or
the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the
number of the beast: for it is the
number of a man; and his number is
Six hundred threescore and six.
-
You have to have the wisdom = you have to know
what happens at the 6th seal, 6th trump and 6th vial.
-
The man is Satan = Isaiah 14:12 How art thou
fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the
morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which
didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the
mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like
the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee,
saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did
shake kingdoms;
-
(1) Beasts = 7th kingdom in Daniel 2 - represent the
world-powers,
The One World Political
System.
-
In
Daniel 7:3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
-
Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise
out of the earth.
-
The word beasts
are figuratively used to symbolize various
kings or nations. It also
describes the character of
violent and brutal men.
(Revelation 17) (Revelation 13) (Daniel 7 and 11)
-
Who are these four Kingdom or Nations?
-
(1) 7th kingdom One World Government (Revelation
13)
-
These are the nations that are spoken of in Daniel
7, they help Satan bring in one Worldism.
-
(2) beast
the 8th king
is Satan one world religious government (Revelation 17 and Daniel 7
and 11)
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon
them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of
them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the
word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither
his
image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or
in
their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand
years.
-
Keywords, worshipped the beast, neither
his
image, neither had received his
mark upon their foreheads
-
His = Satan
-
I saw the souls of them that were
beheaded for the witness of Jesus
-
Who were the souls beheaded?
-
John the Baptist, etc...
-
Revelation 11, Satan and his children will kill the two witnesses
-
Matthew 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That
ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man
shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve
thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
-
Luke 21:18 But there shall not an
hair of your head perish.
-
Revelation 9:4 And it was commanded them
that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green
thing, neither any tree; but only those men which
have
not the seal of God in their foreheads.
-
Why are you deliver up?
-
For a testimony against THEM, for
God's sake
-
One of the rewards of the elect is
to reign with Him for 1000 years
-
Isaiah 61:6 But ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord: men shall call you the
Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in
their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
5 But the rest of the
dead lived not again
until the thousand years were finished. This is the first
resurrection.
-
The dead = these still have their mortal soul, meaning liable to die soul (1 Cor 15)
-
They are spiritually dead to God's Word.
-
John 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The
hour is coming, and now is, when the dead
(spiritually dead) shall
hear the voice of the Son of God: and
they that
hear shall live.
-
Ezekiel 44:25 And
they shall come at no dead person
to defile themselves: but for father, or for
mother, or for son, or for daughter, for
brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
-
Who are the dead?
-
Ezekiel 44:23 And they shall teach my people the
difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to
discern between the unclean and the clean.
-
The elect shall teach my people the difference
between the Holy and profane
-
When Satan is locked into the pit for one
thousand years
-
The elect will also teach the world by our
witness at the end of this earth age, when the
elect are delivered up before the councils and
synagogues, when God will speak through us and
draw the 144,000 out of confusion. (Matthew 24,
Mark 13 and Luke 21
24 And in controversy they shall stand in
judgment; and they shall judge it according to my judgments: and
they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine assemblies;
and they shall hallow my Sabbaths.
25 And
they shall come at no dead
person to defile themselves:
but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter,
for brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
Will you know your love one in heaven?
Yes, the elect can help their love ones
The priests that minister unto the Lord, may not leave His
sanctuary to visit any who are still dead to the truth unless it
be a family relative. After such visit which defiles them, they
must be cleansed seven days before again entering the millennium
temple.
26 And after he is cleansed, they shall
reckon unto him seven days.
John 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The
hour is coming, and now is, when
the dead shall
hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that
hear shall live.
What day is this?
It's the Lord's Day, the millennium!!
1000 years = Millennium
2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing,
that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a
thousand years as one day.
9 The
Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any
should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in
the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and
the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and
the works that are therein shall be burned up.
Amos 5:4 For thus saith the Lord unto the house
of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live.
Matthew 22:32 I am the God of Abraham, and the
God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God
is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
This simple means those that were dead to the
truth (spiritually dead to the word of God), who are the same that the Lord and God's elect
shall teach for the thousand years, when Satan
is without influence of any kind and is locked
away.
Ephesians 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and
carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and
cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.
Now what good would it do us to reign over dead
people for a thousand years?
They are spiritually dead to God's Word in so far as eternal life, they
still have their mortal soul, means liable to
die soul.
This word ''dead'' in Greek is not ''nekros''
but ''nekroo'' meaning to subdue.
1 Chronicles 17:10 And since the time
that I commanded judges to be over my
people Israel. Moreover I will subdue all thine
enemies. Furthermore I tell thee that the LORD
will build thee an house.
Ezekiel 37:3 And he said unto me, Son of man,
can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord
God, thou knowest.
4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these
bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear
the word of the Lord.
5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones;
Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you,
and ye shall live:
Who are these bones?
Ezekiel 37:11 Then he said unto me, Son of man,
these bones are the whole house of Israel:
behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our
hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
The elect go through a testing prior
to the millennium, and it would not be fair that
they attain the full resurrection that you have
attained at the time of your teaching.
They must be taught and then will have a period
of testing, at the time when Satan is loosed
out of his prison.
God deals fairly with all people.
In other words, God won't burn them for a
mistake, but neither will he reward them with
eternal life, until they choose Him above Satan
and remember they have freedom of choice. It is
up to them entirely, just as it has been up to
you.
Let's fix the time. The last
trumpet has sounded. The present dispensation has ended.
Death of the flesh is no longer a
reality. Because there are no longer any flesh bodies.
Luke 20:38 For
he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto
him.
1
Corinthians15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not
all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the
twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be
changed.
We shall
all be changed (made different)
Paul is
telling us - This is the beginning of the millennium - Because of
the LAST trumpet
Note the
word ''DEAD'', it says All dead shall be raised.
They are spiritually dead
to
the word of God. Without God you are dead.
1 Corinthians15:38 But God giveth
it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
1 Corinthians 15:44 It is sown a
natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural
body, and there is a spiritual body.
After your
fleshly body dies or the last
trumpet, All will be
raised and changed into their own incorruptible body, this is your
spiritual body.
Means:
Your spiritual body that would not decay, shrivel, wither or age.
Let s
understand Paul's explanation.
Those
who had not been deceived by Satan, They were resurrected into their
Immortality (deathlessness) soul, alive with Christ.
Those
who worshipped Satan will be raised and changed into their own
incorruptible spiritual body, but they still have a mortal (liable
to die) soul.
This
connection with death. They must retain until Satan is loosed at the
end of the thousand years.
If at
this time they do not follow Satan, They may take part in the second
resurrection. Thus putting on Immortality (deathlessness) of the
soul.
They
must stay in the state until the end of the thousand years.
Matthew
10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to
kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both
soul and body in hell.
The word ''soul'', is the Greek word # 5590,
means "immortal soul"
Revelation 20: The Lord's day is the beginning
of the millennium all will be taught God's laws and God's word, and
will have seen the Lord face to face. They will not be able to come
into the millennium temple.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in
the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power,
but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign
with him a thousand years.
-
This is the first resurrection = =
We're in the Millennium
-
Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:
because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that
thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of
thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7 As they were
increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their
glory into shame.
-
Matthew 28:20
Teaching them to observe all
things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even
unto the end of the world. Amen.
-
Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my
covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for
all the earth is mine:
6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These
are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
-
God does NOT judge anyone to death
... Until they know the word of God.
-
1000 years - This is the millennium
- The day of the Lord - time of teaching
-
Ezekiel 44:23 And they shall
teach my people the difference between the holy
and profane, and cause them to
discern between the unclean and the clean.
-
The nations (the Gentiles) will be priest of their own
people. They will come into the millennium
temple with the Lord, and they will be
teaching their own people the laws of God.
-
He that comes forth in the first
resurrection shall reign with Christ 1000 years.
-
This is another reward of the
very elect. They are resurrected in an
Immortal
body
-
Therefore, they cannot die in the second death...Nor will they be
exposed to it.
-
They
will be priests to teach, many that were only awakened or
raised.
-
Some of
the ones that are only awakened will be deceived a second time, by
Satan when he is loosed.
-
Therefore, verse 12 tell us that they shall die a second death. If
they follow Satan after the millennium, they have been taught God's
word and seen The Lord, face to face.
-
If
people would just study this chapter, They
would be hungry for God's word.
-
Who
wants to wait another 1000 years, Before
they can be with Christ.
7 And when the thousand years are expired,
Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
-
The
millennium is over.
Blindness has been removed from all the people by the teaching of
Christ and the elect.
-
What did
Christ stated in John 9:41?
-
John
9:41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin:
but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
-
No
longer can ignorance be used as a cloak of innocence.
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations
which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to
gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the
sand of the sea.
-
Here we
see Satan's last stand against Christ.
-
Gog and
Magog merely symbolize all Gentile nations in the four quarters
(corners) of the earth.
-
God
purpose in this is to let each prove their love for Him, after they
are taught the truth, or to follow Satan to damnation.
-
Christ
comes with a cup of Wrath at the seven trumpet.
-
Gog and Magog = Here, apparently an inclusive
term for all the Gentile nations; East (Gog) and West (Magog).
-
The destruction of Gog and Magog, Ezekiel 39,
is pre-millennial.
-
Battle = the war Reference to the war predicted and determined.
-
Number = Greek word arithmos = One of the ten
-
As the sand = Greek word Paroemia = Compare Hebrews 11:12 Therefore
sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the
stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea
shore innumerable.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the
earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the
beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and
devoured them.
-
The camp
of the saints, no doubt, is in the millennial temple.
Built as
described by Ezekiel.
-
Note,
Satan's army does not enter into the camp, But only
surround it.
-
There
are no earthquakes or hailstones this time
-
Only the
consuming fire of God.
-
This here shows Satan doesn't setup in
Jerusalem. Christ is setup in Jerusalem
-
If you are teaching Satan's setup again in
Jerusalem, you can see here it's not true.
-
2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come
as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away
with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat,
the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
-
Seeing then that all these things shall be
dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy
conversation and godliness.
-
Looking for and hasting unto
the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire
shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
-
The elements, that is to say the evil rudiments, will melt with
fervent heat, the one world political beast, and Satan's angels.
-
Sin
cannot stand before God,
Therefore, if you are a man of sin, You will
die the second death.
-
Hebrew 12:18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be
touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and
darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the
voice of words; which voice they that heard in treated that the word
should not be spoken to them any more: 20 (For they could not
endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the
mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart: 21
And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear
and quake:) 22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city
of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable
company of angels, 23 To the general assembly and church of the
firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all,
and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 And to Jesus the
mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that
speaketh better things than that of Abel. 25 See that ye refuse
not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that
spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from
him that speaketh from heaven: 26 Whose voice then shook the
earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not
the earth only, but also heaven. 27 And this word, Yet once more,
signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of
things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may
remain. 28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be
moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with
reverence and godly fear: 29 For our God is a consuming fire.
10 And the devil that deceived them was
cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and
the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for
ever and ever.
-
At last,
Praise God! The end
of Satan. Here he
is only himself.
-
He had
this role stripped from him in Revelation 19:20
-
Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken,
and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him,
with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast,
and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into
a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
-
He is no longer the great false
messiah.
-
He is turned to ashes forevermore.
-
Ezekiel 28 has been fulfilled.
-
Ezekiel 28:18
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine
iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring
forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I
will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them
that behold thee.
-
Ezekiel
28:19 All they that know
thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a
terror, and never shalt thou be any more.
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him
that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled
away; and there was found no place for them.
-
Final
judgment has come God
has returned
-
There is
no place to hide and we see the full Godhead.
-
God,
return with all His glory and righteousness.
-
2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now,
by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the
day of judgment and
perdition of ungodly men
12 And I saw the dead, small and great,
stand before God; and the books were opened: and
another book
was opened, which is the book of life: and
the dead were judged
out of those things which were written in the books,
according
to their works.
-
Who are the Dead?
These still have their mortal soul means liable to die.
-
At this time, the millennium is over and it
time for judgment.
-
Without the Lord you are dead.
-
If you have worshipped Satan,
you still
have your mortal soul, meaning liable to
die soul.
-
It would be most presumptuous for
man to comment on the judgment.
-
It is the right of God only.
-
Notice there are two sets of books =
the book of life and
the books according
to their works.
-
His books are fair and just.
-
The fate of everyone at this time,
will have already been written.
-
How are you judged? Verse 13 According to your works
13 And the sea gave up the dead which
were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were
in them: and they were judged every man according to their
works.
-
Who are the Dead?
-
If you worshipped Satan, you still
have your mortal soul, meaning liable to
die. Without the Lord you are dead.
-
It would be most presumptuous for
man to comment on the judgment.
-
It is the right of God only.
-
His books are fair and just.
-
The fate of everyone at this time,
will have already been written.
-
How are you judged?
-
According to your works
