    What and when is the thousand years? Part 3

    The bible and Jesus taught that we are alive right after we die. Luke 23:43 Jesus answered him, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise." 2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. Matthew 22:32 I am the God...

    When and what is the thousand years? Part 2

    Satan can no longer accuse us before the throne because Christ has made us perfect. Hebrews 10:14 For by one sacrifice, he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy. Jesus declared that satan fell from heaven after the disciples went out to preach the kingdom of God. Luke 10:18...

    When and what is the thousand years? Part 1

    Introduction There is a popular belief within the church that Christians in the future will reign with Jesus for 1000 years of peace upon the earth because satan is bound. Is this biblical? Does the bible actually say that? If this is true there are so many unanswered questions and assumptions...

    Psalm 110 disproves a literal thousand years.

    Psalm 110 Of David. A psalm. 1 The Lord says to my lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.” 2 The Lord will extend your mighty scepter from Zion, saying, “Rule in the midst of your enemies!” 3 Your troops will be willing on your day of battle. Arrayed...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Revelation 20:4 4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark...

    The reason Jesus was killed and Israel didn’t recognize Him.

    The reason that Jesus was rejected and killed by the Jews wasn’t because He claimed to be the messiah many Jews claimed to be the messiah until it was proven that they weren’t, it wasn’t blasphemy to claim to be the messiah. The reason Jesus was killed was because He claimed to be God as shown...

    We’re the two witnesses from the past?

    A lot of people believe that the two witnesses will be people from the past from the bible like Mosses and Elijah because they appeared at the transfiguration or Enoch and Elijah because they didn’t die. I believe that the two witnesses are symbolic for the law and the prophets which all...

    Partial preterisim in Revelation Chapter by chapter part 4

    Chapter 20: John sees Satan bound up so that he could not deceive the nations, a symbolic representation of the power of Christ’s sacrifice over Satan’s deception. The “first resurrection” refers to the resurrection of Jesus Christ “the firstfruits”. [1 Corinthians 15.20] Hence, the righteous...

    Partial preterisim in Revelation Chapter by chapter part 3

    Chapter 14: John sees the 144,000, representing the whole Church, standing upon Mount Zion with Christ, a symbolic depiction that the Church will overcome the persecution of the Roman Empire and apostate Israel. John sees a “soul harvest” upon the earth by Christ, a symbolic representation of...

    Partial preterisim in Revelation Chapter by chapter part 2

    Chapter 9: John sees the fifth trumpet blown. The pagan Romans, symbolized as locusts, invade Judea. They torment the Christ-rejecting Jews for five months (May-September 66 AD), inciting them to rebel against the Roman Empire. John sees the sixth trumpet blown. Roman armies stationed at the...

    Partial preterisim in Revelation Chapter by chapter part 1

    This is a good review I came across and it is pretty close to what I believe Chapter 1: Jesus appears to John, to give exhortation to the seven churches. The “coming of the Son of Man” is not referring to the Second Coming, but to the “judgment coming” of 70 AD, which John says was targeted...

    The Jewish people had it wrong does most of the church today too?

    Today is Palm Sunday and on this original day the Jewish people celebrated Jesus as their king and messiah as He came riding into Jerusalem on a Donkey and they shouted “Hosanna[b] to the Son of David!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”[c] “Hosanna[d] in the highest heaven!”...

    Does Jesus reign because satan is bound or does Jesus reign because He is God?

    The answer to this question (because He is God) will prove that there are two sets of thousand years one the reigning and one the binding. Satan isn’t Jesus’ equal or competition just an enemy.

    Two sets of a thousand years.

    The reason that there is so much controversy and misunderstanding over Revelation chapter 20 is that most Christians don't understand that there are two sets of a thousand years one the reigning and one the binding. This is shown in Revelation chapter 20. The binding ends in verse 7 when...

    If the second coming happens before the thousand years?

    Revelation 19:17-18 17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in midair, “Come, gather together for the great supper of God, 18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all...

    Psalm 110:1

    Psalm 110 Of David. A psalm. 1 The Lord says to my lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.” Doesn’t this verse prove that Jesus will sit at His Fathers right hand until He defeats satan and all of His enemies at the end of our world as shown in...

    What did Paul teach us that the rapture is for? When it would occur? There are two main teachings by Paul on the rapture,the first one is: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest...

    What and when is the rapture. Part 1

    Introduction Does the bible really teach us that the rapture is the church being rescued by Jesus from a 7 year tribulation? Actually, the rapture or even a seven year tribulation is not mentioned in the book of Revelation. The book of Revelation shows the church going through a 3 1/2 year...
