During the tribulation period the world keeps on functioning although the times are hard. Of course some places have a much worse time than others. And for Christians they are going to be persecuted and experience trials. Jesus returns after that tribulation to collect His people as in...

He actually does defeat Satan, and he also rebukes Satan by the Lord God's power Jude 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”...

Several things might fit this 'restrainer' in people's minds. And how was that evil 4th kingdom a restrainer of evil, when it was an evil beast itself. Good restrains evil. Jesus said if evil is divided against itself it can not stand. Spiritual powers of wickedness dont restrain each other...

The end of the age-world. It gets blasted with fire, on the Day of the Lord Jesus and so do all the unsaved people on it. Then God creates again all things new https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Peter%203&version=NKJV Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of...

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Thessalonians%205&version=NKJV But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. 2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 3 For when they say...

Your being obtuse here. The point is a sudden destruction is coming for this world, this is taught By Jesus, Peter, and Paul. The destruction is not symbolic.

The way I read revelation, yes the sixth seal is the end in Chapter 6, as Christ does return after those cosmic things occur. Revelation is time jumping in chapter 7, it moves back in time to other visions for greater details. The book is not a pure linear timeline from start to finish. It...

Yes, but even they may be visible on the Day. They certainly will be here.... This is the Day appointed by God where Christ will judge the world Acts 17 30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which...

Daniel 7, shows when His people inherit everything under the whole heaven, referring to the earth 27 Then the kingdom and dominion, And the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, Shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And all...

Matthew 13, explains all this, this is not a third coming at the end, this is the second coming at the end of the age of this world. What you got here is the wicked and the righteous both on earth at the end. Christ comes with the angels The wicked are gathered out of His kingdom, which is now...

yes, twice, first time to be a sacrifice for sins, second time for salvation on the day of wrath, Jesus delivers us from the wrath of God, on that Day v26, the first time v28, the second time There is no 3rd time coming. I know plenty of people on this forum agree with this. Hebrews 9 26 He...

Peter preaches saying Heaven must receive - hold Him until God says go back Meanwhile Christ stays by the right hand of God until the appointed time for His return 19 Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of...

Well, bodily return where every eye shall see Him for those of the world, like they did the first time, then there is only the second time He appears to the world Matthew 26:64 Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at...

God calls things that are NOT as though they DO, so to Him they are a current reality, even if we don't feel or experience it yet... Meaning the promises of God are as good as if they are done and completed. You can place your trust in Him. Acts 15:18 “Known to God from eternity are all His...

Ephesians 2 agrees with that as a current reality right now, and actually eternally too, those ages to come mentioned. And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, 2 in which you once walked according to the [a]course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the...

The Day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night, Jesus spoke of His second coming this way many times... and there will be a sudden destruction of all the unbelieving and wicked, along with the earth and works that are on it will burn and be dissolved, as they are appointed to wrath. Peter...

This is the Day of the Lord here, 30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by...

My view is 1000 is entirely symbolic and also heavenly, as your pointing out, because literally read it does not fit with what Jesus and the apostles teach about resurrection literally as to what happens. This has been pointed out by others over many discussions too. Revelation is a highly...

Romans 8 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are...

1 Cor 15 20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have [d]fallen asleep. 21 For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive. 23 But each one in his own...
