Sorry, but the idea that 2 Peter 3:10 happens AFTER... Christ's future 1,000 years reign of Rev.20 is BALDERDASH. You want to call a spade a spade, that's what I'm doing, and I can back up what I say per The Scriptures.There is no scripture that says a fire will burn mans works off the face of the earth before the 1000 years. 2Pet 3:10 occurs after the 1000 years. I never made a connection between Rev.20:7-9 and 2Pet 3:10.
2 Peter 3:10
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.
KJV
Did you note that little phrase there in red which Peter used for the TIMING of that event? What's that relate to?
To this...
Rev 16:15
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.
KJV
And this...
Rev 3:3
3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
KJV
And this...
1 Thess 5:1-4
5 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, "Peace and safety"; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
KJV
I will spare you what else Lord Jesus taught about that idea of the thief breaking in per His Olivet discourse of Matthew 24 and Mark 13. Now ALL... those Scripture examples about those events coming "as a thief" ARE SPECIFICALLY FOR THE DAY OF CHRIST'S FUTURE RETURN. So when does His "thousand years" reign BEGIN? On the 1st day of His return. So once He HAS RETURNED, those above events will have already been fulfilled.
