Study The Genuine So You Can Spot The Counterfeit
by Stephen Vattimo Friends, Here is Revelation Chapter 20 Revelation 20American Standard Version (ASV) 20 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain [a]in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, 3 and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished: after this he must be loosed for a little time. 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as [b]worshipped not the beast, neither his image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand; and they lived, and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years should be finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: over these the second death hath no ©power; but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him [d]a thousand years. 7 And when the thousand years are finished, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 and shall come forth to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up over the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down [e]out of heaven, and devoured them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet; and they shall be tormented day and night [f]for ever and ever. 11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne; and books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, even the lake of fire. 15 And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire. Here is my argument for those who think the thousand year rein of Christ began after the crucifixion of Christ. Since the death ,burial and resurrection of Christ, there has been no time in history that their hasn’t been persecution against Christians and Jews. Their has been no time in history that war fare between nation has stopped. Their has never been a one world government.or economic system Evil has never stopped. Jerusalem has never been the capital of a one world government. Jesus the Messiah has never set up a Earthly Government which all of mankind has submitted under it’s authority. Conclusion is, there is no evidence in the history of man that supports the believe that the thousand year time frame where the devil and his demons have been bound,and their influence has been remove from mankind for a thousand years. These thing that have not happened yet,will happen when Christ set up his Earthly goverment rule,over the Earth. Friends if there there is a whole chapter of the bible that teaches about the thousand year rein of Jesus with his followers over the physical earth,do not listen to some commentator, pastor,teacher who tell you there no where in the bible that teaches there is going to be a thousand year rein of Jesus on the earth.
