Bible Note: Greetings Nolan! That is my understanding. And, as EdB pointed out, there will also be other people present during the millenium who may not be believers in Christ. For instance, consider Rev. 20:7-8: "When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8 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." Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
