The End Times - The Millennium: Overview.

OVERVIEW

We are in momentous times as God`s purposes are unfolding. Soon the Gentile`s Rule will come to an end and Israel, God`s chosen nation will rule the world. Before that happens we know that there will be a period of great conflict and trouble, as Jesus said,

`such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.` (Matt. 24: 21)

It will be a time when the rebellious nations are judged and the nation of Israel has to go under its final chastisement, till their wonderful deliverance by the Lord Himself at the battle of Armageddon.

Deliverance amid the devastation, peace amid the rubble, and great joy when all hope had seemed lost. The Lord`s return to this sin-stricken world will herald in a new era of peace where those who are alive will enter in to learn of God`s ways and come to know of His glory from Jerusalem.

This is the time that was foretold by the Old Testament Prophets, when God will reign through His chosen nation and mankind will learn to live under God`s rule without the influence of Satan, (locked in the pit).

Amazing as it will be to live in such a time, mankind`s sinful heart still desires its own way and thus there will be a final rebellion led by Satan (who is released). It is quickly dealt with by God.

This period of time is called the Millennium as it is for one thousand years. There is much in God`s word that tells us of this period, so we can look at -



  • What is God`s purpose for the Millennium?


  • What will the world be like going into the Millennium?


  • What changes will occur during that time?


  • Who will be able to live in that time?


  • What sort of life will they lead?
(Note: it is important to realise that we, the Body of Christ will be with Christ in the third heaven and not on earth at all during the tribulation and millennium.)
