Bible Study #13 - What Happens after Jesus Comes?

This was an interesting study for me as I learnt a lot of facts that I didn't know before.

The bible talks about a 1000-year period that is often reffered to as the millenium. This 1000-year period commences with the second coming of Jesus. It's about justice and judgement - when wrongs will be righted, accounts settled, rewards give and the intense longings that are common to most of us will be satisfied. It's about the vindication, clearing God of Satan's false charges. Gos will bring sin and suffering to an end. When he does, everything in the universe will know and testify that God is just and fair.

These are the interesting things that I learnt in this study:

  • The righteous dead will be resureccted at the start of the 1000 years and will reign with Christ
  • The righteous living will be taken to heaven and will also reigh for 1000 years with Christ
  • The unrighteous dead will not be resucrectted until the end of this 100 year period
  • Satan will be chained at the start of this thousand year period and be forced to wander the earh without anyone to tempt.
  • The unrighteous living will call to the mountains and the rocks to fall of them to them from the face of Jesus and the scond coming
  • During the 1000 years all judgements will be read and God will be declared Just and Fair
  • At the end of the 1000 years the people who chose to go against God will ahve to give an account of their lives, they will recieve the consequences of their actions
  • Satan and the Sinners will be destroyed
  • Earth will be cleansed and renewed by fire

After learning all of this I wonder why people can't jsut have faith! Admittedly, you can be blinded by ignorance, Satan blinds people by showing the false truths.. he's very good at it

But that time will soon be at an end!

Please join me in praying for Him to come soon!
