The Last Great War:
It is almost unbelievable to think that there will still be many on the earth who have rebellious hearts and desire to be free from Christ's rule in the prosperous, peaceful Millennium. Rev. 20:7-10 tells of a short season when the Deceiver will be loosed at the end of the 1,000 years again. He and the ones who rebel will surround Jerusalem to attempt to defeat Christ one last time. At this time, God the Father will call down fire from Heaven and destroy everyone who dares to come against Christ! FINALLY SATAN WILL BE THROWN INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE TO JOIN THE ANTICHRIST AND FALSE PROPHET AND BE BOUND THERE FOREVER AND EVER!
******THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER WAR !!!!!! ***********
The Great White Throne Judgment:
This is the Judgment for all people who rejected Christ as Lord and Savior.
All unbelievers will be resurrected from the seas and ashes of the earth to stand before Christ. The power, prestige, rebellion and lusts of the world that were so important to them during earth life will not help them at all when they stand before God Almighty (Rev. 20:11-15)
The Book of Life will reveal only the names of the saved. All unsaved will go to the Lake of Fire. There will be levels of punishment (Rom. 2:6) just like there are levels of rewards in Heaven.
Matt. 7:21 says..."...not every man that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven..."
******Only by faith in the Cross and cleansing by the Blood of Christ can our names be recorded in the Book of Life. *******
The New Heavens and the New Earth:
2 Peter 3:10-13: After the final judgment of unbelievers at the end of the Millennium, God will cleanse the entire earth with fire.
Rev. 21:1-5 The Holy City of New Jerusalem:
1,500 miles square
God will dwell with men
No more crying and no more death
No more pain or sorrow
12 gates of pearl guarded by 12 majestic angels
12 foundations of the city will be made out of different beautiful gems
the walls will be jasper
the city, itself, will be as pure gold
no seas will be on the earth
a river proceeding from the throne of God that will be clear as crystal
tree of Life will be there for the healing of the nations
the Lamb's Name will be on every believer's forehead
It will always be day, illuminated from the Lord
There will be no more night
The saints will live and rule with Christ forever and ever (Is. 65:17, Rev. 21-22)
Outside the City:
Rev. 21:8..."but the cowardly.....burns with fire and brimstone..."
Rev. 21:15..."outside.....whoever loves and practices a lie".
Rev. 22:17..."and the Spirit and bride say, Come! And let him who hears say, Come! And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely"
