The Thousand Years of the Millenium will not be on Earth

[Hobie]

Revelation 20 is the foundation of Christian millennialism. According to Revelation 20:4-6, God’s people will enjoy 1,000 years of reigning with Christ in heaven following his Second Coming. This has been a core belief of Christians who have taken this to be a literal period of 1,000 years and who have accepted the eschatological description as authoritative.

The Millennium is the thousand year reign of Christ with His saints in heaven between the first and second resurrections. During this time the wicked dead will be judged and the earth will be utterly desolate, without living human inhabitants, but occupied by Satan and his angels. At its close of the thousand years, Christ with His saints and the New Jerusalem will descend from heaven to earth. The unrighteous dead will then be brought back up in the second resurrected, and with Satan and his angels will surround the city, but fire from God will consume them and cleanse the earth. The universe will thus be freed of sin and sinners forever. At this time scripture shows, God finally get rid of evil and what will happen to Satan.

Now some think that its on earth, that is called Chialism which is the belief that the 1000 years is a literal period that will take place on earth. They believe that the saints of God will live and wander on earth for the thousand years and then Satan will unite them against God to fight Him at Armageddon. This however makes no sense, as why would the redeemed spend the millennium on earth, and not go to heaven following the second coming as has been a core belief of Christians from even before Christ came.

But people in the church have debated for centuries about the nature of Christ’s second coming, and somehow this idea of Chialism crept in. The roots of chiliasm can be traced back to the early Christian believers who were grappling with persecution and the hope for divine intervention. This idea was particularly appealing to those who wanted it to change here on earth quickly where justice and peace would prevail under the direct rule of Christ. But this is the same idea was what confused the Jews when Christ first came as they thought He would throw off the evil yoke of the Romans and rule here on earth, but He made clear His kingdom was not of this earth. it is a heavenly kingdom.

The Bible shows us as it describes what will happen at end in the events of the Millennium. In the Millennium, the thousand-year period, Satan's influence over the earth will be restricted, and Christ will reign with His saints.

If we look in the Bible, we see Revelation 19 and 20 belong together, there is no break between these chapters. They describe Christ's Second Coming and immediately continue with the Millennium, their sequence indicating that the millennium begins at Christ Second Coming after He takes the saints up to heaven.

At the Second Coming, the first resurrection takes place. The righteous, the "blessed and holy," are raised for "over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years" as we see in Revelation 20:6.

After the resurrection of the righteous dead, they and the living saints are caught up "to meet the Lord in the air" as given in 1 Thess. 4:17. Then Christ will fulfill the promise He made just before He left this world: "'I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also'" from John 14:2-3. Jesus described the place to which He will take His followers as "'My Father's house,'" where there are "'many mansions,'" or dwelling places. Here Jesus refers to the New Jerusalem, which does not come to this earth until the end of the millennium. At the Second Coming, then, when the righteous "meet the Lord in the air," their destination is heaven, not the earth that they have just left. Christ does not establish His kingdom of glory on the earth at this time. He does that at the end of the 1000 years of the millennium.

Christ does not establish His kingdom of glory on the earth at this time. He does that at the end of the 1000 years of the millennium.

What about the part where this earth is dissolved by the Lord's fire as seen below?

2 Peter 3:10-12KJV
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

If the resurected saints are in heaven,then how does Gog and the nations compass their camp about at the end of the millinium?

Revelation 20
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

 

[tailgator]

PS
Doesn't Ezekiel also say the resurected saints live in the land of Israel when Gog and the nations come against them and fire comes down from heaven and destroys Gog?

 

[Davy]

Yes, Christ's future "thousand years" Millennial reign WILL BE UPON THIS EARTH.

Brethren in Christ Jesus, don't trust men's Dispensationalist theories that GO OUTSIDE OF GOD'S WRITTEN WORD. That is where the false idea originated in the 1800's that Jesus and His Church reign in Heaven during the future "thousand years" of Revelation 20. That idea was developed by Dispensationalists to help support their FALSE Pre-tribulational Rapture Theory, which is not written in God's Word either.

Zechariah 14 gives details about Christ's future RETURN TO THIS EARTH, with ALL His faithful Church, His FEET even touching down upon the Mount of Olives east of Jerusalem, ON EARTH!

But the liars of men who serve the devil, whether knowingly or unknowingly, instead don't want Christians to study that Zechariah 14 Chapter about the day of Jesus' future coming, because it conflicts with the LIES they are teaching instead!

And did you not know brethren, that Acts 1 REVEALED Jesus returns to the Mount of Olives also, confirming the events of Zechariah 14??

Acts 1:8-12
8 "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."

9 And when He had spoken these things, while they beheld, He was taken up; and a cloud received Him out of their sight.

10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

11 Which also said, "Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, Which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven."

12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
KJV

Lord Jesus ascended to Heaven from the Mount of Olives, and that is where He will return, literally, per the above and Zechariah 14.

Zechariah 14 then speaks of events involving His future reign on earth, and how all nations will be made to come up to Jerusalem from year to year and worship Him, and keep the feast of tabernacles, else no rain will occur upon their lands.

 

[Davy]

What about the part where this earth is dissolved by the Lord's fire as seen below?

2 Peter 3:10-12KJV
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

It's obvious the translators failed to translate the idea that it will be the surface of this earth that will be destroyed, i.e., man's works, and not the whole earth being literally destroyed. Even the end of Hebrews 12 reveals this. And especially Zechariah 14 which covers many events of Christ's future return and reign on earth.

In 2 Peter 3, Peter describes previous destructions upon this earth, and none of them turned this earth into some asteroid belt. So some barely educated country preacher came up with that interpretation that the whole earth will be literally destroyed, thus rejecting, or forgetting about all the other Bible Scriptures that reveal it will not be completely destroyed, but only its surface cleansed, just as God did with the flood of Noah's day, excepting by His consuming fire this next time.

This is not what teh bible teaches. The only thing the NT adds to teh Millennium is the length of time.

As the Kingdom on earth is promised to Israel and the survivors of the tribulation, there is little description in the NT.

However, the OT is replete with enormous references about life on earth in the Millennial kingdom and how th eearth is restored to a near Edenic condition.

The church is in heaven and teh trib saints who were martyred reign on earth for 1000 years as well as jesus, the apostles and various princes and governors.

Revelation 22:1KJV
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

"The Eternal Kingdom"!

Zechariah 14:1-12KJV
14 Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7 but it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 And the Lordshall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.
10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin’s gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king’s winepresses.
11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

No, the reign is on Earth as the bible states.

Rev 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
Rev 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

The Thousand Years of the Millenium will not be on Earth

That's some freaky cult doctrine stuff there ya'll

 

[Hobie]

What about the part where this earth is dissolved by the Lord's fire as seen below?

2 Peter 3:10-12KJV
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

Like Sodom and Gomorrah, it will be burnt up at the Lake of Fire and sin will cease to exist..

 

[Hobie]

If the resurected saints are in heaven,then how does Gog and the nations compass their camp about at the end of the millinium?

Revelation 20
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

What happens with the New Jerusalem after the thousand years, it comes down, and this is when the wicked come about round the city. Revelation 21 describes the saints coming down with the city and is part of Revelation 20.

 

[Truth7t7]

No, the reign is on Earth as the bible states.

Rev 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
Rev 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

We shall ring on earth, it's called a "New Earth" in the eternal kingdom

Revelation 21:1-3KJV
1. And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

 

[Davy]

Zechariah 14 Is The Eternal Kingdom​

....

Aren't you one of those who believe man's false idea of Amillennialism?

When Jesus returns IT IS NOT GOD'S ETERNAL KINGDOM just yet.

Amills are those who WRONGLY believe when Jesus returns that we immediately go into the new heavens and a new earth timing, WITH ALL THE WICKED DESTROYED THEN. But that is NOT... what the actual Bible Scriptures teach!

Did you notice brethren, that Truth7t7 FAILED TO COVER THE ZECHARIAH 14:16-19 VERSES, and just SKIPPED THOSE VERSES?

Why would he do that? Simple, because those Zech.14:16-19 verses completely REFUTE man's FALSE theory of Amillennialism. See, Amill holds to the false idea that all the wicked are destroyed on the day of Christ's future return.

But what do the following verses say...

Zech 14:16-19
16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.

18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the LORD will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
KJV

Wow! You mean THERE WILL STILL BE WICKED UNBELIEVERS existing AFTER Christ has returned in that time, and AFTER those Waters of the River of Life flow on earth per Zech.14:8? YEAH! And here's why...

There WILL... be 'some' earth changes on the day when Jesus returns, but it will still NOT YET be God's future Eternal new heavens and a new earth time. We all will be changed to our spirit body, including even the wicked. That is what God's consuming fire is going to do on that "day of the Lord" when Jesus returns. Christ's future "thousand years" reign over the nations, upon this earth, is going to be upon a cleansed earth of man's works, like Peter said. It will not literally destroy the whole earth, but only its surface scraping it of man's works. This present world of being in a flesh body will be over, which this is still a mystery for most Christian brethren, seeing how most of our teachers won't study about this as written in God's Word (1 Cor.15; 2 Cor.5, etc.).

God's River of Genesis 2 is going to return with Jesus, along with the Holy City, and Jesus will build the Millennial Sanctuary that will last for the "thousand years" written about His future reign with His elect over the NATIONS ON EARTH, using the prophesied "rod of iron" of Psalms 2 and Revelation 2:25-28. Use your common sense brethren, just who... do you think that "rod of iron" will be for in that future reign by Christ and His elect? For the non-believer and wicked! They will STILL here there for that "thousand years"!

Ezekiel 47 reveals the return of that River, upon this earth, and the future "thousand years" Sanctuary from which that River will flow out of. That Ezekiel 47 chapter even reveals the LOCATION of that on earth after Christ's future return!

Also, per Revelation 2:9, Jesus revealed that He will make those of the "synagogue of Satan" to come and worship at the feet of His elect, something that has NEVER happened to this day. So that means that will happen AFTER His future return, and thus those being the truly wicked servants of Satan, they won't be destroyed yet then either, but will be made to bow the knee to Jesus Christ in that future "thousand years" reign over the nations. Phil.2:8-10 showed us about this, all knees bowing to Christ Jesus requirement, and at His future return and "thousand years" reign with the "rod of iron" is when that is going to happen! Thus Amill's false idea that all the wicked are destroyed on the day of Christ's future return is just totally STUPID, and obviously against God's written Word!

Amill, a doctrine from Gnostics of the 2nd century A.D., instead try to say the "thousand years" reign by Christ per Revelation 20 is fake. Don't listen to them, for that old doctrine goes directly against many easy to understand Bible Scriptures, the above examples only being a couple proofs.

 

[Davy]

Brethren, just WHEN does GOD's Eternal Kingdom of a new heavens and a new earth come?

AFTER... the destruction of Satan, the abode of hell, and the unsaved, that all go into the future "lake of fire" AT the END of Christ's future "thousand years" reign. And that "thousand years" reign by Lord Jesus and His elect will only begin at His future return. But that "lake of fire" destruction won't happen until AFTER... the "thousand years" reign is finished, and GOD's Great White Throne Judgement takes place after the "thousand years". This... is what is actually written in the Book of Revelation, Chapter 20.

 

[Truth7t7]

Amills are those who WRONGLY believe when Jesus returns that we immediately go into the new heavens and a new earth timing, WITH ALL THE WICKED DESTROYED THEN. But that is NOT... what the actual Bible Scriptures teach!

There Will Be No 1,000 Year Millennial Kingdom Upon This Earth, Jesus Christ Returns In Fire And Final Judgement, Dissolving This Existing Earth By Fire, Immediately After The Tribulation

This Existing Heaven And Earth Will Be (Replaced) By The New Heaven, Earth, Jerusalem, A New Creation, At The Return Of Jesus Christ

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

[Truth7t7]

Did you notice brethren, that Truth7t7 FAILED TO COVER THE ZECHARIAH 14:16-19 VERSES, and just SKIPPED THOSE VERSES?

Zechariah 14:16 Who Will Be Left Of The Nations?​

You will closely note, Zechariah 14:16 & Isaiah 4:3-4 are "Parallel" readings of the same event, as Isaiah gives a clear account of those who are left, those who are found in the book of life, the final judgement has passed, eternity has begun "After" The Day Of The Lord

You will closely note in Isaiah 4:4 below, Jerusalem will be purged by the spirit of (Judgement) & (Burning)

Zechariah 14:12KJV
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

Only The Righteous Are Left, The Book Of Life "Was" Opened (Every One That Is Written Among The Living)

Zechariah 14:16KJV
16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Isaiah 4:3-4KJV
3 And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:
4 When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

Revelation 21:24-27KJV
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

 

[Truth7t7]

Amill holds to the false idea that all the wicked are destroyed on the day of Christ's future return.

"All The Wicked Will Be Destroyed" At The Lord's Second Coming (Revealing)

"Destroyed Them All" When The Son Of Man Is (Revealed) By The Lord's "Fire"!

Luke 17:29-30KJV
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

 

[Davy]

There Will Be No 1,000 Year Millennial Kingdom Upon This Earth, ....

Yeah there will be a future "thousand years" reign by Jesus Christ and His elect over the nations beginning AT His future return!

And your misuse of Bible Scripture quoting to support the FALSE AMILL THEORY FROM GNOSTICS is a JOKE!!!

Rev 20:1-6
20 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.
KJV

Rev 2:24-28
24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.
26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
28 And I will give him the morning star.
KJV
