Grace be unto you all and peace from God our Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ. This letter is the concluding part of the series of epistles we have written to you all concerning the millennial reign of Christ on the earth, that which is to come. And when that which is to come is fully come, the following events as listed below will follow after; these are the events that shall follow after the millennial reign of Christ and His saints on the earth is fully completed:

• The Millennium will end in one short period of rebellion. Then the final destruction of all rebels will take place, leaving the saints, natural and resurrected, in charge of the eternal perfect earth forever (Rev 20:7-10; 21:1-22:5, 2 Peter 3:10-13, Isa 66:22-24) – According to Rev 20:1-7 and Isa 24:22, Satan and his angels and demons will be loosed from the abyss (bottomless pit) for a little season at the end of the millennium. They will go throughout the earth to deceive the nations who have not wanted the reign of Christ and who, in their hearts have longed for an opportunity to get rid of such strict laws and rigid suppression of their lusts (Eph 2:1-3) under the millennial rule of Christ and His saints. These rebels will then mobilize in the land of Gog and Magog, in the north parts and ascend upon Jerusalem surrounding the camp of the saints. Then fire will come down from God in heaven and devour them (Rev 20:9, 2 Pet 3:10-13). Thereafter, the devil will be taken and cast into the Lake of Fire forever, the place where the antichrist and false prophet were cast into about a thousand years before. Rev 20:10 affirms that the antichrist and the false prophet will still be in the Lake of Fire at the end of the thousand year reign of Christ on the earth, proving that hell and its eternal torments are real and does not kill the body or soul but torments it forever and ever, for if someone cannot burn up in 1,000 years while in a fire as the antichrist and false prophet will be, then he will assuredly never do so.

• The second resurrection and great white throne judgment will take place (Rev 20:4-6, 11-15, Matt 3:10; 7:21-23; 10:15, 26; 11:20-24; 12:36-37, 41-42; 15:13, Mk 4:22; 6:11, Luke 3:9, 17; 6:24-26; 8:16-18; 10:12-15; 11:31-32; 12:2-3, 10; 13:3, 5, 24-30; 20:42-47, John 12:48, Acts 17:31, 1 Corinth 3:17, 4:5; 6:13, Gal 6:7-9, Col 3:25, Heb 10:26:29, 1 Peter 4:5-6, 2 Peter 2:9; 3:7, Rev 20:11-15, Dan 12:2, John 5:29, Rev 14:9-11, 21:8, 22:15) – According to the scriptures, many of which we have cited above, the wicked dead will be resurrected unto judgment of eternal punishment and damnation about 1,000 years after the resurrection of the righteous which takes place at the rapture. This coincides with the end of the millennial reign of Christ. At this time, all men who have died without knowing Christ from Adam to the end of the millennium will be judged at the white throne judgment and cast into the Lake of fire. This judgment throne is literal and the white indicates absolute righteousness and justice of the judgment (Psa 45:6-7, 96:10-13, John 7:24, Acts 17:31, 2 Tim 4:8) in same manner as white robes indicates the righteousness of saints (Rev 19:8). This is true. Yet still, there would probably be some that will die as righteous men during the millennial reign of Christ e.g. some already at the point of death in some remote village having been saved after the rapture and yet having no knowledge of Christ’s millennial reign in Jerusalem until after missionaries go forth from Jerusalem to win them to Christ. When shall these people then be judged? They also shall be judged at the great white throne judgment. But how can these things be? Is it not written that the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death? And this is to be fulfilled at the end of the millennium as written in 1 Corinth 15:24? That death will continue during the millennium is plainly written in the scriptures. According to Isa 65:20-22, human life will be prolonged so that men will live as long as trees and many will live for the entire 1,000 year reign of Christ if they do not commit a sin having the death penalty, an act that will require them to be judged unto damnation (Isa 11:4), for the law will go forth from Zion and the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem in those days (Isa 2:2-4, 11:3-5, Micah 4). Then if they do not rebel with Satan at the end of the 1,000 years and if they are born again and consecrated to eternal righteousness, they will be allowed to continue to live eternally in the new earth. In those days, a man will be considered a mere child at the age of 100. The resurrected saints of all ages who have been made immortal and have come back to the earth with Christ at His second advent (Zech 14:5, Jude 14-15, Rev 19:14) will be kings and priests and the judges to execute judgment and justice throughout the earth and perfect righteousness and justice shall be meted to all alike without favoritism. Now concerning the great white throne judgment, it is generally accepted by many that this is the judgment of the wicked dead only. But how about righteous men that die naturally during the millennium just before Christ’s fame spread throughout the whole world? Shall not all men be judged according to their works? Shall they then also not be judged? They also shall be judged at the great white throne judgment for it is written in Rev 20:11-15 that at this judgment, books will be opened and the dead will be judged according to their works. But then the scriptures states clearly in Rev 20:12 & 15 that another book will be opened which is the book of life and names will be checked whether they are written in the book of life before anyone is cast into the Lake of fire. So then, if all men that appear at this judgment are the wicked dead with none righteous among them, why then would their names be checked whether it is in the book of life? If they are all wicked, there would be no need to check whether their names are written in the book of life because their names cannot be written in the book of life. God Himself promised in His word that He will blot out of the book of life the names of men that would sin against Him. This is plainly written in Ex 32:33. The fact that names are checked whether they are in the book of life or not clearly suggest that some names of people that appear at this judgment would be in the book of life. These are the righteous dead between the Second Advent and the end of the millennium. It is at this time that they also shall be judged.

• Death will be destroyed and swallowed up in victory (1 Corinth 15:26, 55, Isa 25:8) – According to the scriptures, in the first resurrection which is before the millennium, all the righteous dead of all ages including the godly from Abel to the future tribulation will be resurrected, and death will be done away as far as they are concerned, at that time (1 Corinth 15:23, 51-57, Phil 3:20-21, 1 Thess 4:13-17, Rev 20:4-6). Death will not be destroyed for sinners though, for they will continue to die during the millennium. When the second resurrection takes place and all wicked men are given immortality of the body, to be tormented day and night eternally, then death will be destroyed (1 Corinth 15:24-28, 34-35). Christ has already conquered death and He now holds the keys of death and Hades (Rev 1:18), but death as an enemy will continue throughout the millennium and exercise its powers over sinners (Isa 65:20). After that period, there will be no more death (Rev 21:3-7, 22:3). And after these things, the new heavens and the new earth shall be established to remain forever, never to be destroyed again (2 Pet 3:10-13, Rev 21-22, Isa 65:17; 66:22-24). At this time, the New Jerusalem in heaven, God’s capital city, will be moved from the planet heaven to the planet earth (Rev 21:2, 9-27, Heb 11:10-16; 13:14) and God shall be all in all among men forever as before the fall of Adam (1 Corinth 15:24-28, 2 Corinth 6:16, Rev 21:2-7). This will be the beginning of the eternal ages to come.

We must also mention that sins, sickness, diseases, calamity, wars, and other curses will be past for Israel and all other nations when Christ reigns eternally on the earth. For Israel, all this will stop in the millennium because they will all turn to God and be saved, as mentioned in Isa 60:21; but among the Gentiles this will not be so until in the new earth. In the Millennium, Israel will for the first time inherit all the land originally promised them forever (Isa 60:21; Gen 17:8). Such passages as this prove that God’s program for man on earth is eternal, and not for a period of 7,000 years only. The fall of man did not do away with God’s original purpose; it merely postponed that purpose until the final restitution of all things during the Millennium; and after that, natural man ruled by resurrected man will continue God’s original program as if man had never sinned. This then is the summary of the purpose of God in the dispensational tests of Scripture i.e. to rig man back to the place where he was before the fall in the garden of Eden, after having purged him of all possibility of future failures, and to set him in the new earth to carry on where the race left off when man fell (1 Corinth 15:24-28, Eph 1:10; 2:7; 3:11, Rev 21-22). Father, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Amen. Peace be to you all. Maranatha.
