Who are the dead in,  Revelation 20



Who Are The Dead?
 
1 Corinthians 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
  • You have two bodies, corruptible and incorruptible. Fleshly body and Spiritual body
  • Corruptible means decayed, perishable
  • All flesh are born with corruptible body 
  • Incorruptible: undecaying (in essence or continuance)
  • Incorruptible Body is your spiritual body. After your fleshly body dies, you will be raised and changed into your own spiritually body.
  • Moral and Immortal - Meaning your soul only
  • Mortal - liable to die
  • All flesh are born with moral soul meaning liable to die soul
  • As long as you have your mortal soul you are liable to die
  • After the flesh body dies, the unbelievers will keep their mortal soul, until after the millennium. They are on the left side of the gulf in heaven.
  • Immortal soul: deathlessness: immortality
  • After your fleshly body dies, the believers are resurrected into their Immortality (deathlessness) soul alive with Christ. They are on the right side of the gulf in heaven.
  • Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.

4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
  • Isaiah 26:19 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

  • 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.
5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
  • Breath = spirit
  • Man teaches the word but it's God that seals the truth, where you can understand the word.
  • The seal of God in your forehead, Rev 7:1
6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
 
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
 
8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
 
9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
  • Four winds in Revealtion 7
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
  • Teach them and they will live.
  • Breath = spirit
  • These come out of darkness from false teaching
  • The Seal of God in their forehead, Simply by removing the deception of false teaching and tradition of men and placing the Word of God in your forehead.
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.
  • Are = they are
  • The whole house = As distinct from "the house",
  • We are cut off for our parts = as for us, we are quite cut off, or clean cut off.
  • These bones are the whole house of Israel
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 very elect will also teach the world by our witness at the end of this earth age. When the very  elect are delivered up before the councils and synagogues. When God will speak through the very elect 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  very 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.

Revelation 20:4 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 (Satan), 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
  • Those who have not worshipped the beast
  • His is a man, 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.

  • 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.

  • The dead, these still have their mortal soul means liable to die soul (1 Cor 15)
  • These are spiritually dead to God's Word
  • 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.

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

    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 to spiriual body. But they keep their mortal soul, meaning liable to die soul until after the millennium.
  • 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. 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
  • 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
  • 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.
  • He that comes forth in the first resurrection shall reign with Christ 1000 years.
  • This is another reward of the 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.

1 Corinthians 15:26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

  • Death is the last enemy to be destroyed = same word as "put down" in verse 24
  • The Lord is alive
  • Satan is death.
  • The Last enemy made to cease is death, which is the devil.
  • Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
  • John 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
  • Dead here is another name of Satan. This is death of the soul (Revelation 20)
  • Revelation 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
  • This happens after the millennium, all will know God's word and all will have seen Him face to face.
  • After the Millennium, Which is the second death, many will go into The lake of fire.
  • If they still follow Satan after the millennium, they will go into the lake of fire.
  • Revelation 20 This is the last judgment for the unbelievers.
  • This is the second death, Satan and his children are in the lake of fire. Meaning NO MORE WICKED PEOPLE ON EARTH.
Revelation 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
  • What's the subject?
  • The keyword, his mage, his mark, his name, and the number of his name
  • His number is 666. What happens at the 6th seal, 6th trump and 6th vial
  • His image isIdolatry is image-worship
  • Satan standing in Jerusalem saying he is God, he is the false christ
  • Beasts are kings, kingdoms and leaders

  • Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
  • Bible study hour: Mark of the beast
  • Bible study hour: The seal of God in your forehead
  • These who had gotten ''victory'' are the overcomers.
  • These have studied to show themselves approved.
  • They are those that knew what happens at the 6th trumpet, 6th vial and the 6th seal
  • And had actually overcome the beast, his name Satan
  • Who is the false Christ?
  • We know that the mark was put on Cain in the garden.
  • The sea of glass is a sea of purity, absolute purity.
  • They are standing upon a ground of purity.
  • Remember the elders mentioned earlier in other chapters.
  • They were standing on the sea of glass.
  • Revelation 4:6 show us that the sea of glass is before the throne.
  • Revelation 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
  • The number of his name = Satan = you know what's happens at the 6th seal, 6th trump and 6th vial.
  • God set a mark upon Cain (Satan's seed) where you would know them by their works. Satan's seed are murderers, liars, they abode not in the truth, there is no truth in them, they bring in confusion, they do evil, etc... The kenites control most of the media, and their so called hate comedy shows, that teach hate. If you are waiting on most of the lying media to tell you the truth, you are deceived already.
  • The mark represents your works, what you believe, do you follow Satan, the ways of the world?
  • Do you try to follow God's commandments?
  • The mark in your forehead, you believe Satan and his children are of God, and you followed Satan's ways.
  • The Seal of God in your forehead The truth of God's word in your forehead vs the mark of the  beast (Satan, false deception) in your forehead the deception of false teaching and the tradition of man in your forehead.
3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

  • Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
    29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
  • Galatians 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
  • 7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
  • Ephesians 3:6 That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
  • The Elect are singing these songs, These are the over comers of the world
  • This song is the simple knowledge of God's word
  • Let's note there are two songs they were singing.
  • The song of Moses and The song of The Lamb
  • Moses is the law, and The Lamb is grace
  • The law has not been changed according to Jesus
  • Who are the elect?
  • In the last days the elect are going to help God directly in His work. What a glorious time is ahead.
  • His goodness will let the elect (seven thousand that stood against Satan without wavering), being the first fruits, that would suffer for Him in the near future and bring this age into "the millennium" which is the Lord's day. (Roman 11) (Ephesians 1)
  • The elect destiny is to lead people to the knowledge concerning, Who the Kenites are.
