If you have read one through four of 'Signs of the Times'
you know what is coming, You know it's going to be difficult
and a time of great sorrow. What happens at the end though,
seven years of tribulation and then what? Plain and simple..
after the tribulation comes the thousand year reign of God/Christ.
Now you are probably wondering..
"A thousand years? huh? why only a thousand years"
first lets establish how this happens. Now the army of the anti-christ
and all who have been marked(mark of the beast)
have marched down to a place called Armageddon.
Now comes Christ on a white horse with the army of heaven,
____________________+_________________________
"I saw heaven standing open and there before me
was a white horse, whose rider was called faithful and true.
On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:
KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Then I saw the beast(Anti Christ) and the kings of the earth
and their armies gathered together to make war against
the rider on the white horse and his army. But the beast
was captured, and with him the false prophet who had
performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With
these signs he had deluded those who had received
the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The
two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning
sulfur."
Revelation 19: 11,16,20
Now comes the thousand year reign of Christ
and his followers on earth,called by most as "The Millennial Period"
During this time an Angel with the key to the abyss
comes and binds Satan there for 1 thousands years so he cant
come and deceive anyone on earth for that time period.
____________________+_________________________
And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having
the key to the abyss and holding in his hand a great chain.
He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil,
or satan, and bound him for a thousand years.
And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because
of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God.
They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not
received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came
to life and reigned with christ a thousand years.
Revelation 20:1-4
After the thousand years are up, Satan will be released
and he will go out to deceive, and gather
people for another battle. They will march on to Jerusalem
(the camp of Gods people) they will surround it,
but they will not be able to touch it for fire will reign down
from heaven, and satan will be thrown into the
lake of burning sulfur. However this time it will be for ever and ever.
____________________+_________________________
When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his
prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners
of the earth-Gog and Magog- to gather them for battle. In number
they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the
breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of Gods people,
the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured
them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake
of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been
thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Revelation 20:7-10
Now comes the time where everyone is judged,
if we are not found in the book of life then we are tossed
into the fiery lake of sulfur with Satan.
____________________+_________________________
If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life,
he was thrown into the lake of fire.
Revelation 20:15
Most people already know about being judge,
and what happens to those who haven't acknowledge
Christ as the son of God, So there really isn't a need to get into all that.
The reason for this series of blogs was to point out the signs...
to point out what to watch out for, for those who may not know what's coming.
For those who may be left behind, and yet sense something isn't right.
I feel the time is near, and I find it hard to explain to people.
For I know every time a disaster happens 9/11 or the Y2K scare
somebody jumps up and says "Armageddon is near!! Christ is coming soon!"
and people just laugh when it doesn't happen. It's like the boy who cried wolf..
All I know is we all should be ready for his coming, we should be
ready for his return, not because I said so, but because Jesus himself
said for us to always be ready for the master to return.
You hear talk, and if you have been to Rev22-12.com you know I
believe we must be on the watch, we must keep an eye on
Israel,Iran and Russia...because they play a huge role in end times prophecy.
God will not stand by and let the promise land be wiped off the map,
as Iran and the Jihadists want. It's a fact that the Jewish people are
Gods chosen people, and we can only pray that more come to know
Jesus as the messiah. We as Christians should embrace them,
and we should stand with them.
I pray we would ready ourselves for his return, does that mean we stand back
and say "Oh Christ is returning soon, so I don't need to do this or that"
no..you still have to live your life. What I'm trying to say is this..
knowing He is coming soon doesn't mean you stop living,
it simply means we should live as we always should have.
We should study Gods word and strive to live how He wants us to,
we should defend Christ, and not hide our beliefs because its the
politicly correct thing to do. We should reach out and pick up
the fallen, We should be helping the sinner and the lost,
not just hiding in our church and inflating our egos.
Christ's return is a blessing, and most of us cant wait.
This earth..this world...it isn't heaven, if anything it's more like hell.
A lot of people have become blinded however,
and I'm not just talking about the atheist or none believer
I'm mostly talking about the believer in general.
The church who doesn't want to talk about Christ's return,
The church who only turns to revelation to talk about Hell...
not a lot of church's want to preach about his second coming,
they treat it as a taboo subject, and they only focus on the here and now..
they focus on God blessing you and giving you tenfold on what you put
in to the church. Don't get me wrong, God does bless you...
God, if it's his will, can put you in a job where you earn lots of money,
He can even give you a winning lottery ticket. All things are possible,
However to focus so much on what God can do for you, instead
of what you can do for others is completely wrong. Prosperity is great..
sure, but you can't take it with you when you die. I believe
because of certain pastors and church's the average believer has
become blinded to believe Heaven is on earth. That everything
is all sunshine and lollipops as long as you believe in Jesus,
and he is like a genie in the sky that will make you rich as long as you
do this that or the other thing. Have we forgotten it's not about works?
WAKE UP! This church...these pharisees...these hypocrites are
not the reason Jesus Christ first came to earth, Jesus came
for the none believer, He came for the sinner. He didn't come
to those who believed they were saved because of what they
did for the church or in there lives.....Jesus first came for those
who didn't know of his grace, who didn't know of love,
He came for the blind...in todays terms he came for the
Druggie, the Alcoholic, the Prostitute, the Thief, the Liar, and the Lost
He came for everyone in the end, Because without his sacrifice
none of us would be able to enter Gods kingdom, for we are all sinners.
So if Jesus while on earth reached out to "the hopeless and lost"
shouldn't we as well? Jesus first came to earth to save us,
and soon he will return again, not to save us per say, but to bring
everlasting peace and joy to those who recognize him as the Christ.
"Behold I am coming soon my reward is with me,
and I will give to everyone according to what they've done."
Revelation 22:12
