The Millennium Movie:
For years I have been attempting to understand the picture painted by those promoting the 1,000 year earthly reign of Christ, which they say begins at Christ’s Second Coming.
I wish someone would make a movie version to help us understand the idea, in the same way the “Left Behind” movies have been used to help us with the pretrib rapture doctrine.
I am going to start the script with my understanding of what Premillennialists are telling us will happen.
In my version, the movie starts in year 999 of the 1000 year reign.
The planet is inhabited by us immortals and also mortals who live to a great age, but by this time some of them are dying.
The first scene in the movie begins with the funeral service of a mortal.
We are there in our immortal bodies and therefore are in some ways like supermen and superwomen, compared to the mortals, who are still in their normal bodies. We cannot be harmed and are helping Christ run the world and teach the mortals. Christ is the one who is officiating in this rare funeral service. All of the Apostles are seated on the front row. Christ assures all of those present that this person will be resurrected back to life very soon, right after the rebellion which is soon to come. Some of the family members have wondered where the person’s soul has gone, since Christ is now on earth. At the end of the funeral service one of the family members asks Christ why he does not raise the person back to life like He did with Lazarus, since Lazarus is there at the service. Christ asks them if they have read the Scofield Reference Bible, lately?
Everything on the planet is running smoothly except for some people dying occasionally and everyone asking the question of why Christ is going to release Satan from his prison, since things seem to be running very nicely without him. Since it is year 999, everyone knows what is about to occur. All calendars are circled with the big day that is to come.
Those of us who have been teachers have done everything in our power to prepare the young people for the release of Satan. They have been warned numerous times about how many of them will be deceived by Satan, and will then be destroyed in the Lake of Fire. Because we are like Supermen and Superwomen compared to them, many do not believe us, because we are not like them. Even though Christ is running the whole planet, they do not believe Him either. Occasionally one of these mortals runs their car into one of us, and confirms the fact that we are immortal when the car bounces off of us. It would be much like a scene out of one of the Superman movies.
Finally the big day arrives and we are prepared for the release of Satan, so that he may have another chance to deceive the whole world, just like he did 1,000 years earlier.
Then Christ commands that Satan be released out of the pit.
Because we are immortal and have given up our sin nature, Satan can never harm or deceive us again. Remember that there will be millions of us on the planet. However, we are given orders to never show up where Satan is speaking in order to give him a fair chance to deceive the whole world again. Because we are immortal, we watch and follow his every move, but we have been told that we must not intervene as he tries to deceive the mortals in the same way he deceived Eve, and the same way he deceived the world at Armageddon 1,000 years earlier. Otherwise, he would not have much of a chance.
The mortals must choose between Christ and Satan without our influence.
Otherwise, it would not be fair to Satan.
Somehow, Satan convinces many of the mortals they can take over the world.
Even though they know we are immortal and cannot be harmed or killed, many of these mortals decide to rebel against us and Christ, anyway. Apparently, intelligence has not improved any during the Millennium, even though we have been their teachers.
Fire then comes down from heaven, just like it did at Christ’s Second Coming, (based on 2 Thessalonians chapter 1) and destroys those who rebel at the end of the 1,000 years.
Like Yogi Berra used to say… “It is like Deja Vu all over again.”
Then we have the time of the judgment of the dead, which is also found in Revelation 11:18.
Then sin and death can finally be removed when this old earth is burned up on the Day of the Lord when He comes as a thief, based on 2 Peter 3:10.
At that point Christ finally brings in the eternal New Heavens and the New Earth.
THE END of the Millennium…
