Is what you dont understand is the non-literal 1000 years is taking place now, and will finish at the second advent.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.
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Those who satan shall deceive after the 1000 years are over are human , how can they not be ?
Revelation 20:5
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Is what you dont understand is the non-literal 1000 years is taking place now, and will finish at the second advent.
The battle you see is at the end of the future 42 month tribulaton.
Satan is currently bound and sealed from one specific purpose?
"Deceiving The Nations To The Final Battle"
Revelation 16:12-17, Revelation 20:7-9
This earth is dissolved by fire at the appearance of Jesus Christ
2 Peter 3:10-13, 2 Thessalonians 1:7-8, Luke 17:29-30, Malachi 3:2, Nahum 1:5, 1 Corinthians 3:13
You mean receiving the mark and worshipping the image of the beast, because Jesus Christ will not return to this earth, and hang out with mortal humans.LOL , if you keep believing that you will be peeling potatoes and washing pots and pans , while the rest of us are ruling and reigning with Jesus since you refuse to believe what he has told you![]()
So many words, yet you failed to address my point. Look at Revelation 12 again. It makes a clear correlation between the casting out of Satan and the authority of Jesus, and the blood of the lamb. How do you answer that?satan is currently in the 2nd heaven , where the stars , sun, moon are .
satan still has access to all the earth and he is called the prince of the air
When he makes his accusations of the people of God he is allowed access to the Throne of God which is the 3rd heavenly realm
Eph 2:2 (KJV)
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
When Jesus was crucified and shed His innocent blood Jesus exclaimed 'It Is Finished.
What he means is His task of shedding his innocent blood as a sacrificial lamb providing the method by which all of humanity can be saved from eternal damnation
By accepting that Jesus died on the cross and rose to life again to pay the penalty of death and repenting of your sins , asking Jesus to forgive you of your sins and believing in your heart that Jesus died to pay for your sins and that you believe that by being born-again in the spirit; of Thee Christ and will be among those that have overcome satan and death by accepting the free gift of eternal life obtained through the blood of the lamb Jesus.
People who accept Jesus gift of salvation and truly believe that Jesus will give them eternal life will love Jesus more than they love their own life ; even until death ,
some people may accept Jesus gift then love their own life more than Jesus when they are threatened their life will end if they don't submit to the Man of Sin direction , or it could be they are hungry and want food and accept the mark of the beast and forfeit eternal life with Jesus. ,
Jesus says people that lose their life for Jesus sake will have eternal life with Jesus
The book of Revelation is a book of prophecy about the things that will happen before Jesus returns to earth
Rev 12 shows that when the time of the Man of Lawlessness occurs Michael the Arch Angel and his angels fight satan and cast satan down to earth; this is when satan realizes that he has no more access to heaven and his time is short
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
When satan is cast out of heaven he is not bound at all , he is sent to earth and acts in the Man of Lawlessness to cause as many people as he can to worship him as God
This is when the mark of the beast will be implemented
In the near future satan will be cast down to earth and will seek to kill as many people as he can ,
so no satan is not yet bound and is still free to roam and access the Throne of God to make accusations of the people of God
LOL if you want to receive the mark , have funYou mean receiving the mark and worshipping the image of the beast, because Jesus Christ will not return to this earth, and hang out with humans.
Jesus warned believers against this teaching in Matthew 24:23-27
It means that right then, in the days of Moses-the new earth was here? Or -just like in Rev. 11, it is showing a prophecy yet to come?
Revelation 11:15
“And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.”
The battle you see is at the end of the future 42 month tribulaton.
LOL , if you keep believing that you will be peeling potatoes and washing pots and pans , while the rest of us are ruling and reigning with Jesus since you refuse to believe what he has told you
You simply don't understand what it meansSo many words, yet you failed to address my point. Look at Revelation 12 again. It makes a clear correlation between the casting out of Satan and the authority of Jesus, and the blood of the lamb. How do you answer that?
You're right. And also Acts 3:21 tells us that Jesus will not return until the new heaven and the new earth.You mean receiving the mark and worshipping the image of the beast, because Jesus Christ will not return to this earth, and hang out with mortal humans.
Jesus warned believers against this teaching in Matthew 24:23-27
Wrong , who do you think satan will deceive after the 1000 years ? the 1000 years is AFTER Jesus returnsSorry this is a false statement as there will be no human being on earth after the second coming of the Lord in the clouds.
Dave you want to see a bodily resurrection of the believer in Revelation 20:4 it aint thereOne thing that sain't rather clear, that verse does NOT say the following----But those of the first resurrection and the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. To somehow make it say that when it's not remotely saying that, that would be adding to the text something not found in the text.
And since Amils make the first resurrection to not even be meaning the bodily resurrection of the saints when Jesus comes, where then can that particular resurrection be found in Revelation 20 if it's not meaning the first resurrection? Do Amils actually want us to believe that the most significant blessed resurrection of all time, 2nd only to Christ's, that John totally neglected to even make mention of it anywhere in Revelation 20? That's stretching it to think John would bother to mention the bodily resurrection of the rest of the dead, but would neglect to mention the bodily resurrection of the blessed saints as well.
You simply don't understand what it means
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
They are people who have received Jesus gift of salvation that came by Jesus crucifixion
The casting out satan is the time when he comes to earth empowering the BEAST Man of Lawlessness
NOT giving Jesus authority as He has never lost authority ,
