Bible Question:
Darcy ... What is your answer to where Revelation 20 fits in? Searcher |
Bible Answer: After the dead in Christ rise and the living saints are called up to meet Christ in the clouds, the the Devil is bound here on the earth for a thousand years while the rightous live in heaven for a thousand years. During this time there is no one here on the earth for Satan to decieve or to tempt because the wicked are slain by the brightness of Christ comming. After a thousand years he is let loose. The reason is in Rev 21:8 Rev 20:7-10 The first resurrection is the one for the rightous and a thousand years later a second resurrection that is for the wicked.The judgement is where the saints judge the fallen angles. See 1Cor 6:2,3. John saw all the ones who had died for their faith in Christ and had not recieved the mark of the beast. Here you need also to know what the mark of the beast is. You see Satan is the great deceiver and he causes people to transgress the Roal Law of God Which is the 10 Commandments. See Rev22:14. These are In Lev 20. The sabbath commandment which is fourth was changed by the beast See Dan 7:25. The one which the beast introduced was a counterfiet sabbath for the first day of the week Sunday named after the sun god Baal which is Lucifer who's name means day star. To recieve the mark in your forehead is to worship on the wrong day, and to recieve it in your hand is to work or cause others to work on the true sabbath.
