THE 7000 YEAR PLAN OF GOD
6 Days of Creation - 6000 Years; 7th Day Sabbath (Rest) - 1000 Years
(Millennium). For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Ps 90:4 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 2
Pet 3:8 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it. Exod 20:11
In Bere****h (Genesis) and Shemot (Exodus), we are told how God made all things in six days, and on the Seventh Day (Shabbat-Sabbath) He ceased from His labour. Why did He do this? God set up the seven-day Divine Plan within which the Messianic Redemption would be fulfilled according to the promise made to the Patriarch Abraham:
In Abraham's "SEED" shall ALL the nations of the earth be Blessed
(Gn22:18; Gn26:4). God foreknew precisely what He was going to accomplish before His Divine Plan of Redemption was commenced.
I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like Me,
DECLARING THE END FROM THE BEGINNING, and from ancient times the THINGS THAT ARE NOT YET DONE, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I WILL DO ALL MY PLEASURE: Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executes My counsel from a far country: yea, I HAVE SPOKEN IT, I WILL ALSO BRING IT TO PASS; I HAVE PURPOSED IT, I WILL ALSO DO IT. Isa 46:8-11
Unto me, the most inferior of all saints, was this Grace given, that I
should preach among the nations the unsearchable riches of the Messiah, and to enlighten all to the administration of THE MYSTERY WHICH HAS BEEN HIDDEN SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD BY GOD, who Created all things through Jesus Christ; according to THE DIVINE PLAN OF THE AGES which he purposed in Jesus, the Messiah, our Lord. Eph 3:8-9,11
God's Creation was to echo Redemption by defining a "day" as 1000 years (Ps 90:4; 2 Pet 3:8 quoted above). From beginning to end, it was determined by God that mankind was to have only 6 "days" (6000 years) to live out his time on earth. On the Seventh Day, the "Day" of the Lord (Millennium), God Himself would intervene into human affairs and usher-in the Kingdom of God on the earth.
Our Father in the Heavens, Hallowed be Your Name. Let Your Kingdom come. Let Your Will be done as in theHeavens, so also on the earth.
Matt 6:9-13
TESTIMONY OF THE EARLY SAINTS
Epistle of Barnabas 15:3-5 He speaks of the Sabbath at the beginning of
the Creation, "And God made in six days the works of His hands and on the seventh day He made an end, and He rested on the seventh day, and He sanctified it. Consider, my children what this signifies: That He made an end in six days. The meaning of it is this: that in six thousand years the Creator will bring all things to an end, for with Him one day is a thousand years. He Himself testifies, saying, Behold the day of the Lord shall be as a thousand years. Therefore children, in six days, that is in six thousand years, all things shall be accomplished. And He rested on the seventh day:He means this, that when His Son shall come He will destroy the season of the wicked one, and will judge the godless, and will change the sun and the moon and the stars, and then He will truly rest on the seventh day.
Secrets of Enoch 33:1 And I appointed the eighth day also, that the eighth day should be the first created after My work, and that the first seven revolve in the form of the seven thousand, and that at the beginning of the eighth thousand there should be a time of not counting, endless, with neither years nor months nor weeks nor days nor hours.
Elias (Eliyahu) 200 B.C. The world endures six thousand years; two
thousand before the Torah, two thousand under the Torah, and two thousand under the Messiah.
Irenaeus 150 A.D. (was trained by Polycarp who was trained by John who wrote the Book of Revelation. Quote is from "Against Heresies" Book 5, 28, 3: For in as many days as this world was made, in so many thousand years shall it be concluded...This is an account of the things formerly created, as also it is a prophecy of what is to come. For the day of the Lord is as a thousand years; and in six days created things were completed; it is evident therefore, that they will come to an end at the six thousandth year.
Cyprian 250 A.D. (archchampion of orthodox Christianity against heresies) "The Treatises Of Cyprian" Chapter 11: The first seven days in the Divine arrangement contain seven thousand years.
Lactantius 300 A.D. (Tutor to the son of the Roman Emperor Constantine, was a highly respected scholar. He wrote sometime before his death in 330 A.D. the following in "The Divine Institutes" Book 7, Chapter 25: I have already shown above that when 6000 years shall be completed this change must take place. Chapter 26: But he (Satan) also, when the thousand years of the Kingdom, that is, 7000 of the world, shall begin to be ended, will be loosed afresh, and being sent forth from prison, will go forth and assemble all the nations, which shall then be under the dominion of the Righteous, that they may make war against the Holy City.
Methodius 300 A.D. (Banquet Of The Ten Virgins, Discourse 9, Chapter 1): For in six days God made the heaven and earth, and finished the whole world . . and blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, so by a figure in the seventh month (Tishri ) when the fruits of the earth have been gathered in, we are commanded to keep the Feast to the Lord, which signifies that, when this world shall be terminated at the seven thousand years, when God shall have completed the world, He shall rejoice in us. . . . Then, when the appointed times shall have been accomplished, and God shall have ceased toform this creation, in the seventh month, the Great Resurrection Day, it is commanded that the Feast of our Tabernacles shall be celebrated to the Lord.
Latimer 1552 A.D. The world was ordained to endure, as all learned men
affirm, 6000 years. Now of that number there be passed 5,552 years, so that there is no more left but 448 years.
Rabbi Ketina: The world endures six thousand years and one thousand it
shall be laid waste, whereof it is said 'The Lord alone shall be exalted in
that day'. As out of seven years every seventh is a year of remission, that God alone may be exalted in that day.
