After the Rapture: The End of the World

[michaelvpardo]

That my friend is why we outta be very careful as to what we teach from that book .
Many are adding too and taking from it . And that is very scary for them .

I agree, which is why we should draw our understanding from the bulk of scripture. The book of the Revelation doesn't stand alone, but has at least 65 accompanying books which should give us insight into its meaning. If I told anyone that I understood it all I'd just be another liar, but I know the Lord and He is the subject of the book. It is the "Revelation of Jesus Christ."
I've found that usually when our Lord has something exceptional to say in His book, He says it twice. Jesus sometimes said, "verily, verily or truly, truly" to emphasize a truth He was telling. In the Old Testament scripture we have multiple prophets telling us the same thing using different language, sometimes expanding on a concept, but with the same meaning. So, if it's important, we should find parallel passages, though some have an earlier fulfillment. Eg. The fall of Babylon is written of by the prophets and was originally understood to be about that ancient nation, but we have nearly the same usage of words describing the fall of Babylon the great in the book of the Revelation. I think that most Christians with the Spirit of prophesy understand that the former foreshadows the latter.
These things should aid our understanding, but the carnal mind has difficulty recieving them. We compare spiritual with spiritual, but at best, the carnal mind can only compare material to material, physical to physical. This is generally why there's so much confusion and argument inside the church, there is a great deal of carnal thinking.

 

[Ronald David Bruno]

Those who expound Bible Prophecy, are part of the current generation which is mainly corrupt and ungodly. [as in the days of Noah]

Very judgmental. This current generation is corrupt as in the days of Noah but DO NOT INCLUDE CHRISTIANS WHO LOVE THE LORD IN THAT GROUP. Eschatological views whether right or wrong do not determine ones faith, nor do they invalidate it.
You THINK your views are correct, I don't, but I don't judge you as ungodly, corrupt or delusional, just wro ng about certain things.
There are a half dozen views in eschatology. We all love the Lord, just see His prophetic words differently or have been taught differently. We hold to the fundamentals, the essentials and agree on them. Some here are even non-trinitarian, not me, but I wouldn't discount their faith. We love the Lord, labor to understand His Word and disagree at times. There maybe some tares among us that are just trying to derail our beliefs, but understanding eschatology correctly or incorrectly DOES NOT QUALIFY OR DISQUALIFY YOUR FAITH.

Conversely, our ancient Scriptures themselves do not say there will be an increase in understanding and discernment during the end times.

Christians understand the Bible much more than they did when they didn't have it in front of them, didn't have the expert teaching, schools, books. They knew little back then, the basics. Of course we have the Holy Spirit and don't need a teacher, but we have thousands of years of years of teachings by scholarly men whobm were led by the Spirit to examine and draw from. We can go into depth about any doctrine, search numerous commentaries, and in minutes receive scholarly views. We have available a wealth of education that scholars have labored over for centuries for at our fingertips. Okay, some of that is incorrect and we must sift through it. The Holy Spirit eventually draws us to the truth.

Instead of telling us that mankind will progressively draw near to God because of our ability to assimilate and wisely apply knowledge to our circumstances, the Word of God tells us the Christians will repeat the ancient sin of Israel, and embrace lies.

.
We are drawing near to God. The Gospel has been preached to The entire world and God's plan is RIGHT ON COURSE. ALL WHO WERE ORDAINED TO BE SAVED HAVE BEEN ACCOUNTED FOR. HIS PLAN IS PERFECT AND HE IS SOVEREIGN.
Some are led astray by false doctrine for a time. But if they are HIS, no one can snatch them out of His hand, even they themselves can't sabotage His plan for their lives. They will be convicted and corrected - including YOU.

Theological error isn’t random. In this regard, the Greek word in our New Testament, rendered delusion, and it is the Lord Himself who delivers that delusion to those He deems appropriate.

So, If we disagree with Keras, we must be in error, and likely are delusional, corrupt and ungodly?
Theological errors don't make you delusional or ungodly - we are all sinners and were all dirty rags. Fortunately, by the Grace of God, many have been cleansed.

Fyi, the strong delusion that God sends out in the last days are to believe the lie, that Jesus is not Lord and Savior. Unbelievers will take the mark of the Beast. Watch out Keras, make sure don't take it ... or maybe you don't know what the mark is yet? Remember, you won't be able to buy or sell unless you have it.

 

[Ronald David Bruno]

" ...that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled":

I can't help myself. You cannot see the Millennial Kingdom in the verses you are stating are spiritual.
In this portion of the verse, Satan is cast down and locked up for a thousand years - so he will not be able to deceive the nations (on earth) during that thousand years. Oh wait, you must think he was locked up for 1 day because you use that verse over and over as if it has something to do with our time domain on earth. Have we witnessed the absence of Satan's presence on earth for a thousand years? No, he has been tempting everyone for 6,000 years.

" ...and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years."

They lived and reigned with Christ ON EARTH FOR 1000 years. If you think this is spiritual and in heaven? Will we reign in heaven? No, no, no.

" ...This is the first resurrection."

Meaning another one after the 1000 years is up will come. The FIRST RESURRECTION happens prior to the Millennial Kingdom along with judgment (death that succumbs the world during the Great Tribulation period). "Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power," The second death comes after the 1000 years and so we will not be effected by that since we will already have our eternal bodies for 1000 years.

" ... but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years."

So you think this is spiritual? In heaven? Reigning priests in heaven?
It is right there in front of you and you cannot discern it. ???

Spot on. And biblical.

“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. THE END”

Satan Is Currently Bound For 1,000 Years Explained?

Satan is "Currently" bound from "One Specific Purpose", And One Only?

"Deceive The Nations" To Battle

The Non-Literal 1,000 Years (Revelation) 20:1-6 Are Taking Place Now In The Lords Spiritual, And Will Cease At The Future Second Coming

If A Tribulation Saint Were To Die One Day Before The Second Coming, He Enters Into The Non-Literal 1,000 Year Reign

Many That Promote Millennialism Falsely Teach, Satan Cant Be Presently Bound Because Evil Exist In The World?

Satan Is Presently Bound From (One Specific Purpose) As Is Clearly Seen In (Revelation) 20:7-8 Below That Interprets (Deceive The Nations) Is To Battle, Not General Evil In The World Presently.

Satan Is Loosed At The End Of The Tribulation When The 6th Vial Is Poured Out As Seen In (Revelation) 16:12, The Deception Is Devils In False Miracles Going Forth To The Kings Of The Earth, To Gather Them To The Final Battle

Revelation 20:1-9KJV
1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he 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.
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.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
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.
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
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.
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.

(Revelation) 16:12-14 & (Revelation) 20:7-8 Same Deception In Gathering The Nations To The Very Same Final Battle In "Parallel" Teachings Of The Same Event

(Revelation) 16:12-17KJV
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

The First Resurrection, On The Last Day Explained?

There is one time of resurrection for all, this takes place on the (Last Day) at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ

There are (Two) resurrections on this (Last Day) the righteous are blessed to be in the (First Resurrection) to eternal life, on such the (Second) death resurrection has no power.

1.) (First) Resurrection To Life
2.) (Second) Resurrection To Damnation, The Second Death

(Revelation) 20:6KJV
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.

The (Last Day) Resurrection Of All Below

(John) 5:28-29KJV
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

(John) 6:39-40KJV
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

(1 Corinthians) 15:21-24KJV
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

The (Last Day) Judgement

(John) 12:48KJV
48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Amillennialism is dead in the water. It has to deny most of scripture that is to be understood literally and then distort it to mean something symbolic. They spiritualize everything except spirituality, which they don't quite grasp either.
Dead in the water - because trying to teach them anything is futile?
"Satan is bound already" ... Sure. Oh, I guess when He starts passing out the mark of the Beast, you will remain in denial thinking, "Since Satan is bound, nothing bad can happen to me, I'll take it!
Are you purposely trying to deceive people to believe that sin and evil have already been put down, Satan captured and locked up and so everything in the world right now is hunky dory?
I'll pray for you Truth7t7 - to receive the truth.

You falsely suggest I claim (Sin & Evil) has been put down, a "False Misrepresentation", something I never stated or suggested

As I stated several times, the binding of Satan is from (Deceiving The Nations To Battle) As Revelation 20:7-8 Interprets itself, to claim otherwise would make pinocchio's nose grow, and we dont want to do that

[n2thelight]

You haven't studied this chapter:

"The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones. 2 Then He caused me to pass by them all around, and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and indeed they were very dry. 3 And He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”

So I answered, “O Lord God, You know.”

4 Again He said to me, “Prophesy to these bones, and say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! 5 Thus says the Lord God to these bones: “Surely I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live. 6 I will put sinews on you and bring flesh upon you, cover you with skin and put breath in you; and you shall live. Then you shall know that I am the Lord.” ’ ”

7 So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and suddenly a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 Indeed, as I looked, the sinews and the flesh came upon them, and the skin covered them over; but there was no breath in them.

9 Also He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.” ’ ” 10 So I prophesied as He commanded me, and breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, an exceedingly great army.

11 Then He said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They indeed say, ‘Our bones are dry, our hope is lost, and we ourselves are cut off!’ 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, O My people, I will open your graves and cause you to come up from your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. 13 Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O My people, and brought you up from your graves. 14 I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken it and performed it,” says the Lord.’ ” Ezek. 37

You probably picked a church that never got into this concept of the resurrection. People have known this, which is one reason why they bury their dead, trying to protect their soon to be dry bones for a future resurrection.
Now you know ... Or will you wrestle with it and switch on the denial mode? Or maybe you will attempt to label it symbolic and search numerous commentaries and pick one, copy and paste ... ???
Just accept that this us what God will literally do. Good day.

Wow ,this chapter has nothing whatsoever to do with a resurrection

God is using symbols in Ezekiel 37, to show us how the restoration of the two Houses will be joined together. These two Houses today are; the House of Israel [the Christian nations], and the House of Judah [the true Jew]. God took Ezekiel to a valley, and sat him right in the middle of it. As Ezekiel looked around, all he could see were bones everywhere. It was just full of stacks of dead dry bones. These bones were scattered and all disassembled.

Ezekiel 37:16 "Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: Then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:"

On the first stick, Ezekiel wrote the name of Judah, and it will represent all those who call themselves "Jews". It doesn't matter if they have Jewish blood or not, as long as they consider themselves of Judah. These people include those people of the tribes of Benjamin, and Judah, as well as part of the Levitical priesthood.

The whole "House of Israel", are all the Christian nations around the world. The English People are the offspring of the tribe of Ephraim, in large part. However, this second stick represents all the House of Israel that were divorced by God, and brought back as the "sons of the Living God".

By using the two sticks, God is symbolizing the division between Israel, and Judah, or in terms of today; Christian and Jew.

Ezekiel 37:17 "And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand."

This joining of the two sticks will not happen until the first day of the Millennium age, when our Lord Jesus Christ returns.

Thinking maybe you need to pick another Church , and leave mine alone !!!

the Millennium age, when our Lord Jesus Christ returns.

No Such Thing As A Millennium Age Found In Scripture, A Man Made Fairy Tale

Jesus Christ Returns In Fire And Final Judgement, Dissolving The Heavens And Earth By Fire

There Will Be No 1,000 Year Millennial Kingdom Upon This Earth, Jesus Christ Returns In Fire And Final Judgement, Dissolving This Existing Earth By Fire, Immediately After The Tribulation?

12 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?

What is the Day of the Lord ?

 

[n2thelight]

Revelation 20:9KJV
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.

This happens after the millennium

Revelation 20:9 "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."

This beloved city is Jerusalem where Jesus Christ and His temple will be at the close of the Millennium age. It is here where the glory of God is, and God's fire from heaven will come down to devour Satan and all his followers.

This is the "great day of God" when the full Godhead comes to dwell on earth with His saints forever. This is different from the "day of the Lord", which was 1,000 years earlier, that took place at the seventh trump when Jesus Christ came and set up His kingdom for the Millennium.

When Jesus Christ Returns It Will Be (The End) Not The Start Of A Millennial Kingdom On Earth

As scripture clearly teaches below in 1 Corinthinas 15:23-24 , when Jesus Christ returns then comes (The End)

Many disregard (Then Cometh The End) as they desire to see a mortal Millennial Kingdom on earth, after the coming of Jesus Christ

afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. Then cometh the end, not a Millennial Kingdom on this earth as many falsely claim

(Then Cometh The End)

(Death Is Swallowed Up In Victory)

1 Corinthians 15:21-26 & 51-54KJV
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

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.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

Revelation 20:1-6 Isnt A Millennial Kingdom On This Earth, Dont Be Deceived

Can you find the things claimed by those teaching a Literal 1,000 year Millennial Kingdom On This Earth in Revelation 20:1-6 below?

1.) Physical Earthly Kingdom?
2.) Physical Earthly Throne?
3.) Physical Mortal Humans?

The Above Claims (Don't Exist)

Revelation 20:1-6 Is 100% In The Lords (Spiritual) Angel, Heaven, Devil, Satan, The Souls, The Dead, God, Christ

100% Spiritual Realm, No "Literal" Time

2 Peter 3:8KJV
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.

Revelation 20:1-6KJV
1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he 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.
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.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
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.
