CHURCH #11-2 LESSON
THE END - TIME LINE EXPLAINED
These are the basic scriptures about the end time according
to the Bible. These items are numbered as points, not exact
sequence; some things are happening at the same time.
1. PRESENT AGE
- Now
2. SEVEN YEAR PERIOD - THE 70TH WEEK OF DANIEL (see Daniel
9:27)
This starts with the Antichrist’s 7 year covenant with
Israel (Dan. 9:27 & Mat. 24:15)
This is the Beginning of Sorrows (Matthew 24:8 &
Mark 13:8)
At the middle of 7 years the Antichrist is
revealed (@ 3 ½ years) the Abomination of Desolation happens
which starts the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21)
THE 70TH WEEK OF DANIEL- DANIEL 9:24-27
“(24) Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people
and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to
make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for
iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to
seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most
Holy. (25) Know therefore and understand, that from the
going forth of the commandment to restore and to build
Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks,
and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built
again, and the wall, even in troublous times. (26) And
after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but
not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall
come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end
thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war
desolations are determined. (27) And he shall confirm
the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the
week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,
and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it
desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined
shall be poured upon the desolate.”
The 70th week of Daniel is the last seven year
period (week of years) in which will be the abomination of
desolaton, the great tribulation, the rapture, and the day
of the Lord (wrath). The abomination of desolation will be
explained after the beginning of sorrows because
“sorrows” starts at the beginning of the 70th week of Daniel
and the “abomination of desolation” starts in the middle of
the 70th week.
BEGINNING OF SORROWS
Matthew 24:1-8
Matthew 24:6-8 - “(6) And ye shall hear of wars
and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all
these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. (7)
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and
earthquakes, in divers places. (8) All these are the
beginning of sorrows.”
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION
The Antichrist will break his covenant and
desecrate the temple by demanding worship of himself in it.
Timing is 3 ½ years into the (7 year) period. Daniel 9:27
says, “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one
week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the
sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the
overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate,
even until the consummation, and that determined shall be
poured upon the desolate.”
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 says, “(3) Let no man
deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and
that man of sin be revealed, the son of
perdition; (4) Who opposeth and exalteth himself above
all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that
he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that
he is God.”
Daniel 11:31 says, “And arms shall stand on his
part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and
shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place
the abomination that maketh desolate.”
Daniel 12:11 says, “And from the time that the
daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination
that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two
hundred and ninety days.”
2 Thessalonians 2:7-8 says, “(7) For the
mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now
letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. (8) And
then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord
shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall
destroy with the brightness of his coming:”
Matthew 24:15 - “When ye therefore shall see the
abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet,
stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him
understand:)”.
Matthew 24:21 lets us know that is when great
tribulation starts. “For then shall be great tribulation,
such as was not since the beginning of the world to this
time, no, nor ever shall be.”
3. RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH
CONDITIONS ON EARTH BEFORE RAPTURE
2 Timothy 3:13 - evil men and seducers shall wax
worse and worse
Luke 17:26-34. Verse 26 - as it was in the days
of Noe, so shall it be also
2 Thessalonians 2:2-4 - Verse 3, “. . .
that day shall not come, except there come a falling away
first, and that man of sin be revealed. . . .”
Matthew 24:24 - if it were possible, they shall deceive the
very elect.
Psalm 91:7 - “A thousand shall fall at thy side,
and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come
nigh thee.”
Luke 21:28 - “And when these things begin
to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for
your redemption draweth nigh.”
The rapture of the church is some time after
first 3 ½ years of the 7 year tribulation period. The
Antichrist will be revealed before the rapture. 2
Thessalonians 2:1-12.
CHRIST’S COMING
*
Christ Jesus came to earth to be born, live, die, resurrect,
and return to God.
* Jesus “appears” to us and we are born again, we
get saved
(Read Hebrews 9:26-28.)
* Jesus will come again and we meet Him in the air
- rapture - 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
* Jesus comes again (returns with saints to fight
at Armageddon) Jude 1:14-15 & Zechariah 14:1.
The word RAPTURE is not found in the Bible. It is
a modern day term used to describe the catching away of
God’s people. Webster’s dictionary says that rapture
is “a carrying away in body or spirit”.
In the rapture Jesus will come to take his saints
(dead and alive) to be with him. Study the scriptures for
yourself to see when the rapture will take place. It will
have no effect on your eternal salvation which way you
believe about the time of the rapture. Sin, however, will
separate you from God. Without holiness, no one will see
the Lord.
Eight including Noah were saved in the great flood
because they were righteous. "But Noah found grace in the
eyes of the Lord." Read Genesis 6:5-8. They escaped.
In Genesis 19:22-24. The angels told Lot, “(22)
Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing
till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city
was called Zoar. (23) The sun was risen upon the earth when
Lot entered into Zoar. (24) Then the Lord rained
upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the
LORD out of heaven;” (Read Luke 17:26-37). Luke
17:29 says, “But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it
rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them
all.” Verse 30 says, “Even thus shall it be in the day when
the Son of man is revealed.”
Luke 21:36 says, “Watch ye therefore, and pray
always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these
things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son
of man.”
We are commanded to watch and pray for we know not
when the Son of man is coming. Read Matthew 26:41, Mark
13:31-37, Mark 14:38, and Revelation 3:3.
This second coming is also called the first
resurrection in Revelation 20:6
Rapture references:
Matthew 16:27 - come in glory with angels and
reward our works
All of Matthew, Chapter 24
Matthew 25:31 - come and angels are with him & sit
upon the throne of his glory
Matthew 26:64 - coming in the clouds of heaven
Mark 14:62-coming in the clouds of heaven
Luke 9:26 come in his glory
John 14:3 - “And if I go and prepare a place for
you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that
where I am, there ye may be also.”
John 14:28 - “. . . I said unto you, I go away,
and come again unto you. . . .”
Acts 1:9-11 Jesus will come in like manner as they
saw him go into heaven.
1 Corinthians 15:50-55 - raised incorruptible,
changed
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 -meet the Lord in the air
Titus 2:13 - glorious appearing of Jesus
Revelation 20:4-6 - Verse 5 says, “But the rest of
the dead lived not again until the thousand years were
finished. This is the first resurrection.”
Revelation 3:10 - keep thee from the hour of
temptation
1 Thessalonians 5:9-10, “For God hath not
appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our
Lord Jesus Christ.” (So the rapture takes place before God’s
wrath is poured out.)
1 Thessalonians 1:10 - which delivered us from the
wrath to come.
Coming of the Son of Man
Matthew 24:27, “For as the lightning cometh out of the east,
and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming
of the Son of man be.”
Matthew 24:37, “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also
the coming of the Son of man be.”
Matthew 24:38-39, “(38) For as in the days that were before
the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving
in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
(39) And knew not until the flood came, and took them all
away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM
- is about the raptur
2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 - coming of our Lord,
gathering unto him
Verse 5-10 - Wicked revealed and Lord destroy with
brightness of his coming
John 14:2-3 - I go away to prepare a place for you
John 14:28 - I go away, and come again unto you.
Matthew 24:27-31 coming of the Son of man
Mark 13:23-27 - Verse 26: then shall they see the
Son of man coming
Verse 27: gather
together his elect
JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST
(for Christians only)
Romans 14:10 - “But why dost thou judge thy brother?
or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all
stand before the judgment seat of Christ.”
Galatians 6:10 - we are of the household of faith. Believers
in Christ are called brethren. There are false brethren - 2
Corinthians 11:26.
2 Corinthians 5:10 - “For we must all appear before the
judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the
things done in his body, according to that he hath done,
whether it be good or bad.” Jesus intercedes for His
saints. If they repent and continue in Christ they go to
heaven
Romans 8:34 - “Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that
died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the
right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Hebrews 7:25 - “Wherefore he is able also to save them to
the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever
liveth to make intercession for them.”
Matthew 28:18 - “And Jesus came and spake unto them,
saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
John 12:46-48 - “I am come a light into the world, that
whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. And
if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him
not: for I came not to judge the world,
but to save the world. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth
not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I
have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.”
Jesus came not to judge the world, but to save them. God
will judge those who do not accept the gospel of salvation.
WHEAT & TARES, SHEEP AND GOATS
The Judgment seat if Christ Jesus will operate till all
things are subdued. If people who are as “goats” don’t
repent, they are separated permanently from the sheep.
Matthew 13:24-30 - wheat and tares
Matthew 25:1-13- parable of the virgins
Matthew 25:31-46 - sheep and goats
Matthew 7:21 - “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord,
Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that
doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”
Matthew 7:22 - many prophesied, cast out devils and did
works in Jesus’ name
Matthew 7:23 - “And then will I profess unto them, I never
knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
Christ’s judgment of Christians is continual.
1 Corinthians 11:32 - “But when we are judged, we are
chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with
the world.”
God is a separator and a divider. Examples
are:
Luke 12:51 - “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on
earth? . . . Nay; but rather division:”
Exodus 8:23 - I will put a division between my people and
thy people
Hebrews 4:12 - “For the word of God is quick, and powerful,
and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the
dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and
marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of
the heart.”
“(31) When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all
the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne
of his glory: (32) And before him shall be gathered all
nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a
shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: (33) And he
shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the
left. (34) Then shall the King say unto them on his right
hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom
prepared for you from the foundation of the world: (35) For
I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and
ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: (36)
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I
was in prison, and ye came unto me. (37) Then shall the
righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
hungered, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
(38) When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or
naked, and clothed thee? (39) Or when saw we thee sick, or
in prison, and came unto thee? (40) And the King shall
answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as
ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me. (41) Then shall he say also unto
them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into
everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
(42) For I was an hungered, and ye gave me no meat: I was
thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: (43) I was a stranger, and
ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and
in prison, and ye visited me not. (44) Then shall they also
answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, or
athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and
did not minister unto thee? (45) Then shall he answer them,
saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to
one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. (46) And
these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the
righteous into life eternal.”
Matthew 25:31-46.
MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB,
and the BRIDE
(for Christians only)
Some think this is right after the rapture. Some
say it concerns new Jerusalem.
Revelation 19:7-9 - marriage of the Lamb is come,
and his wife hath made herself ready
Revelation Chapter 21
Matthew 22:1-14 - A certain king made a marriage
for his son
Luke 14:16-24 - A certain man made a great supper,
and bade many
Luke, Chapter 14
Matthew, Chapter 25
Bride: Revelation 21:9 & Revelation 22:17
Bridegroom: Matthew 25:1-13, (Matthew 9:14-15,
Mark 2:19-20,
Luke 5:34-39), John 3:27-31.
WILL SOULS BE SAVED AFTER THE RAPTURE?
Will the Holy Ghost have left the earth? “For the mystery
of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will
let, until he be taken out of the way.” 2 Thessalonians
2:7.
Look at Revelation 7:9-14. Revelation 7:13-14
says, “And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What
are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came
they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said
to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation,
and have washed their robes, and made them white in the
blood of the Lamb.” These had not taken the mark of the
beast and they had robes; they were bought by the blood of
Jesus.
GREAT TRIBULATION
It is the 70th week of Daniel and lasts seven
years. The second half of the seven year period is Great
Tribulation. One half of that seven year period is said to
be 42 months or 1,260 days (see Rev. 11:2-3). See Daniel
9:24-27.
Matthew 24:21 - “For then shall be great
tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the
world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.” Verse 29 -
“Immediately after the tribulation of those days . . .
powers of the heavens shall be shaken.”
Revelation 2:22 - I will cast . . . into great
tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Revelation 7:14 - they which came out of great
tribulation and washed their robes
Mark 13:14-24 - spoken of by Daniel the prophet -
Verse 19: “For in those days shall be affliction, such as
was not from the beginning of the creation which God created
unto this time, neither shall be.” Verse 20 - “And except
that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be
saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he
hath shortened the days.”
Matthew 24:9 & 22, Revelation 12:17 - Israel is
persecuted
Revelation 7 - Salvation of multitudes
Revelation 13 - Rise and dominion of Antichrist,
the beast
JUDGMENT OF THE WORLD
WRATH OF GOD AND OF THE LAMB
Matthew 24:50-51 - there shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth
Luke 12:46-48 - appoint him his portion with the
unbelievers
Revelation 6:15-17 says, “(15)And the kings of the earth,
and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains,
and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man,
hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the
mountains; (16) And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on
us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the
throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: (17) For the
great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to
stand?
Revelation 14:13-20, Verse 19 says, “And the angel thrust in
his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the
earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of
God.”
A TIME
when God “ariseth to shake terribly the earth”, the day of
the LORD of hosts, -
Isaiah 2:1-2, 11-12, 19-22
A TIME
of “destruction from the almighty - Isaiah 13:6-7, Joel
1:14-15
A TIME
of God’s wrath and anger - Isaiah 13:13 - in the wrath of
the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
Zephaniah 1:14-16 - The great day of the LORD, day of wrath,
a day of trouble and distress, a day of waste and desolation
Zephaniah 2:2-3 - fierce anger of the LORD, hid in the day
of the LORD'S anger.
A TIME
when God will punish the world for evil and iniquity.
Isaiah 13:11, Zephaniah 3:8 - pour upon them mine
indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth
shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
A TIME
when God’s anger is directed against the nations - Isaiah
34:1-2
A TIME
of God’s vengeance - Isaiah 34:8
A TIME
of darkness - Joel 2:1-2, Joel 2:30-32, Joel 3:14-15, Isaiah
13:9-10,
Zephaniah 1:14-2:3
A TIME
of the Lord’s fire - Possibly Joel 2:3-5, Again, Joel 2:30 &
Zep. 3:8.
Zephaniah 1:18 - the whole land shall be devoured by the
fire of his jealousy
More “day of the Lord” scriptures: 1 Corinthians 1:8, 1
Corinthians 5:5,
2 Corinthians 1:14, 1 Thessalonians 5:2, Romans 2:16 - day
when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ,
Philippians 1:6 & 10, Philippians 2:16 - the day of Christ,
2 Thessalonians 2:1-2 - the day of Christ is at hand.
Some say that Revelation’s seals 1-5 are the result of the
Antichrist and war, and that is not the wrath of God that is
poured out later.
Rev. 15:1 - And I saw another sign in heaven, great and
marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for
in them is filled up the wrath of God.
Revelation 19:15
- “And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he
should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod
of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness
and wrath of Almighty God.” Immediately after this
scripture it talks about the beast and others gathered
against the Word of God. That will be Armageddon. Read also
Rev. 19:20 and Rev. 20:1-3.
There are three series of judgments: (seals-Rev. 6; trumpets
- Rev. 8-9; vials - Rev. 16). Rev. 16:16 - “And he gathered
them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue
Armageddon.” These overlap and happen before the millennial
reign, thus before the end of the great tribulation.
The tribulation ends in the gathering of the nations to the
battle of Armageddon and the return of Christ to the earth.
(See Revelation, Chapter 19.)
4. THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST (Christ & Saints Return)
& THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON
Jesus returns with the saints at the end of the 3
½ years great tribulation period. Jesus plants His feet on
Mt. Olives and is revealed to all. The Battle of Armageddon
takes place.
Revelation 16:16 says, “And he gathered them together into a
place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.”
The first time He came to the earth, He came as a
baby. He lived, He died, He resurrected, and is now sitting
at the right hand of the throne of God. He comes for His
Saints at the rapture (already discussed) when we meet Him
in the air (1 Thesssalonians 4:17), and He does not touch
the earth. He does not appear to the world at that
time, because He comes as a thief in the night to them. (1
Thessalonians 5:2-5).
Christ is revealed at his second coming.
Matthew 24:27 says, “For as the lightning cometh out of the
east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the
coming of the Son of
man be.”
Jude 1:14-15 - the Lord cometh with ten thousands
of his saints
Revelation 14:14-20-sharp sickle, gather the vine
of the earth
Revelation 16:16-21 - Armageddon
Revelation, Chapter 19
Zechariah 14:1-4 - his feet shall stand in that
day upon the mount of Olives. Verse 5 - “. . . and the LORD
my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.” Verse 9
says, “. . . the LORD shall be king over all the earth.
. . .”
Satan is bound for 1000 years. The Beast and
False Prophet are cast into the Lake of Fire.
5. THE MILLENNIUM
The millennium is the 1000 year reign of Christ on
Earth. Christ was revealed to all at his second coming.
Christ Jesus and His saints defeat the enemy at the battle
of Armageddon. Then starts the literal one thousand year
reign of Christ Jesus on this earth (the Millennium). This
comes after the rapture, the judgment seat of Christ, the
great tribulation, the revelation of Christ and the battle
of Armageddon. There will be a literal restoration of the
nation of Israel. Most evangelical churches accept this
view.
Matthew 6:10 - “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done
in earth, as it is in heaven.”
Matthew 19:28 - “. . . in the regeneration when
the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory. . . .”
Isaiah 2:4 - “And he shall judge among the
nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat
their swords into plowshares, and their spears into
pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more.” This is during the
millenial reign.
(1000 YEARS)
Psalm 90:4 - “For a thousand years in thy sight are but as
yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.”
2 Peter 3:8 - “. . . one day is with the Lord as a thousand
years, and a thousand years as one day.”
Revelation 20:1-7, “(1) 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. (7) And
when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed
out of his prison,”
GOG AND MAGOG
Satan is bound for the millennium. At the end of the 1000
years, Satan is loosed for a short season. He deceives the
nations and gathers them in a final revolt against Jesus
Christ resulting in the war/battle of Gog and Magog.
(Revelation 20:1-10)
Revelation 20:6-10, “(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.
(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.
(10) And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake
of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet
are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and
ever.”
6. GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT
(of wicked dead and living)
LAKE OF FIRE AND THE SECOND DEATH
THE BEAST AND THE FALSE PROPHET ARE IN THE LAKE
OF FIRE
Revelation 2:11 - “He that hath an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that
overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.”
Isaiah 26:19-21 - “(19) Thy dead men shall live,
together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing,
ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs,
and the earth shall cast out the dead. (20) Come, my
people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors
about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment,
until the indignation be overpast. (21) For, behold, the
LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of
the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose
her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.”
Romans 2:4-6, day of wrath and revelation of the
righteous judgment of God
Revelation 19:20 - “And the beast was taken, and
with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him,
with which he deceived them that had received the mark of
the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both
were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.”
Revelation 20:6 - “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.”
Revelation 20:11-15:
“(10) And the devil that deceived them was cast
into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and
the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night
for ever and ever.” (11) And I saw a great white throne,
and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the
heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
(12) And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God;
and the books were opened: and another book was opened,
which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of
those things which were written in the books, according to
their works. (13) And the sea gave up the dead which were
in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which
were in them: and they were judged every man according
to their works. (14) And death and hell were cast
into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
(15) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life
was cast into the lake of fire.”
Revelation 21:8 - “But the fearful, and
unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and
whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire
and brimstone: which is the second death.”
7. NEW HEAVENS, NEW EARTH, & NEW JERUSALEM
This is after the 1000 years and the white throne
judgment. The first heaven and earth pass away. New
Jerusalem comes down as a BRIDE adorned for her husband.
2 Peter 3:10-13 - heavens pass away and earth is
burned up, new heavens and a new earth
Revelation 3:12 - “Him that overcometh will I make
a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more
out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the
name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which
cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon
him my new name.”
Revelation Chapter 20-21
Hebrews 1:10-12, (10) “And, Thou, Lord, in the
beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the
heavens are the works of thine hands: (11) They shall
perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as
doth a garment; (12) And as a vesture shalt thou fold
them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the
same, and thy years shall not fail.”
Revelation 21:1-2 - New Jerusalem - (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.”
THE END
END OF TIME:
Revelation 10:6 - “And sware by him that liveth for ever and
ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are,
and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea,
and the things which are therein, that there should be
time no longer:”
Revelation 10:7 - “But in the days of the voice of the
seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the
mystery of God should be finished, as he hath
declared to his servants the prophets.”
Matthew 24:14 - this gospel preached in all the world -
then shall the end come
Psalm 102:25-27 - (25) Of old hast thou laid the foundation
of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
(26) They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of
them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou
change them, and they shall be changed: (27) But thou art
the same, and thy years shall have no end.
Hebrews 1:10-12 - (10) And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning
hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are
the works of thine hands: (11) They shall perish; but thou
remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
(12) And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they
shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall
not fail.
WHEN IS THE FINAL END?
(23) But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits;
afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. (24)
Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the
kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down
all rule and all authority and power. (25) For he must
reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. (26)
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. (27) For
he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all
things are put under him, it is manifest that he is
excepted, which did put all things under him. (28) And when
all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son
also himself be subject unto him that put all things under
him, that God may be all in all.
1 Corinthians 15:23-28.
