00:06:32.482 --> 00:06:35.852

CALLED THE CHURCH AGE.
00:06:47.330 --> 00:06:48.931
IT'S THE TIME THAT GODHAS TEMPORARILY SET ASIDE
00:06:48.965 --> 00:06:52.101
HIS DEALINGS WITH ISRAELAND HAS ALLOWED NON-JEWS,
00:06:52.134 --> 00:06:56.572
PEOPLE LIKE YOU ANDME, TO BECOME A PART
00:06:56.606 --> 00:06:59.141
OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
00:06:59.175 --> 00:07:01.110
BUT THAT SETTING ASIDE OFISRAEL IS ONLY TEMPORARY.
00:07:01.143 --> 00:07:04.580
YOU KNOW OFTEN WE CHIDETHE JEWISH PEOPLE,
00:07:04.614 --> 00:07:08.251
THE ISRAELITES FORMISSING THE COMING
00:07:08.284 --> 00:07:11.220
OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
00:07:11.254 --> 00:07:13.322
WE SAY THEY MADE A MISTAKE.
00:07:13.356 --> 00:07:16.359
INSTEAD OF LOOKINGFOR A RULING KING,
00:07:16.392 --> 00:07:18.594
THEY SHOULD HAVE LOOKEDFOR A SUFFERING SAVIOR.
00:07:18.628 --> 00:07:21.964
INSTEAD OF LOOKINGFOR A LITERAL KINGDOM,
00:07:21.998 --> 00:07:25.001
THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN LOOKINGFOR A SPIRITUAL KINGDOM.
00:07:25.034 --> 00:07:28.571
AND YET THAT'S NOT TRUE, THEYWERE ABSOLUTELY JUSTIFIED
00:07:28.604 --> 00:07:32.074
IN BELIEVING THATWHEN MESSIAH CAME,
00:07:32.108 --> 00:07:34.677
HE WOULD COME AS A KINGAND THAT HE WOULD ESTABLISH
00:07:34.710 --> 00:07:37.280
A LITERAL PHYSICALKINGDOM ON THE EARTH
00:07:37.313 --> 00:07:40.316
BECAUSE THERE 1800 PROPHECIESIN THE OLD TESTAMENT
00:07:40.349 --> 00:07:42.985
THAT PROMISE SUCH A THING.
00:07:43.019 --> 00:07:45.221
THE PROBLEM WITH THEJEWISH PEOPLE AT THAT TIME
00:07:45.254 --> 00:07:48.090
WAS THEY DIDN'T UNDERSTANDTHERE WOULD BE TWO COMINGS
00:07:48.124 --> 00:07:50.426
OF THE MESSIAH.
00:07:50.459 --> 00:07:51.994
THE FIRST TIME HE WOULD COMEAS THAT SUFFERING SAVIOR
00:07:52.028 --> 00:07:55.031
TO BE A RANSOM FOR THESINS OF THE ENTIRE WORLD.
00:07:55.064 --> 00:07:58.868
BUT THE SECOND TIME HE COMES,THE NEXT TIME HE COMES,
00:07:58.901 --> 00:08:02.605
WILL BE WHEN HE COMES AS KINGOF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS
00:08:02.638 --> 00:08:06.842
AND HE WILL SET UP ALITERAL KINGDOM ON EARTH.
00:08:06.876 --> 00:08:11.180
LET ME JUST POINT OUT A FEWPASSAGES FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT
00:08:11.213 --> 00:08:14.584
THAT PROMISE THAT KIND OFLITERAL KINGDOM ON EARTH.
00:08:14.617 --> 00:08:18.187
FIRST OF ALL, 2 SAMUEL 7:12-13,

GOD'S PROMISE TO DAVID.
00:08:26.262 --> 00:08:28.064

00:08:28.097 --> 00:08:31.500
"AND YOU LIE DOWNWITH YOUR FATHERS,
00:08:31.534 --> 00:08:33.436
"I WILL RAISE UP YOURDESCENDANT AFTER YOU,"

OR PSALM 89:30-37.

00:08:56.959 --> 00:09:00.429

"AND DO NOT KEEPMY COMMANDMENTS,
00:09:12.174 --> 00:09:14.043

HE CAN BREAK HISCOVENANT WITH YOU.

WHETHER OR NOT GODREJECTS HIS PEOPLE.
00:10:38.427 --> 00:10:41.163

00:10:41.197 --> 00:10:43.532
"FOR A CHILD WILL BE BORN TO US,

OR ISAIAH 11:4.6 AND 9,

YOU KNOW, THERE ISSUCH AN EMPHASIS TODAY
00:11:27.977 --> 00:11:30.146
ON THE DESIRE FOR JUSTICEAND SOCIAL JUSTICE.
00:11:30.179 --> 00:11:36.318
DO YOU KNOW WHERETHAT COMES FROM?
00:11:36.352 --> 00:11:38.954
IT COMES FROM THE FACTTHAT WE ARE ALL CREATED
00:11:38.988 --> 00:11:41.290
IN THE IMAGE OF GOD.
00:11:41.323 --> 00:11:43.092
AND EVEN AFTER THE FALL,EVEN UNBELIEVERS RETAIN
00:11:43.125 --> 00:11:46.962
A REMNANT OF THAT IMAGEOF GOD INSIDE OF THEM.
00:11:46.996 --> 00:11:51.333
THE REASON WE LONG FOR JUSTICE
00:11:51.367 --> 00:11:54.403
IS BECAUSE WE ARE CREATED BYA GOD WHO IS A GOD OF JUSTICE.
00:11:54.436 --> 00:11:58.874
AND WE HAVE THAT LONGING.
00:11:58.908 --> 00:12:00.910

WE OUGHT TO STRIVE FOR IT, BUTWE CAN'T BRING IT OURSELVES,

GOD HAS TO BRING IT AND HE WILLSATISFY THAT DESIRE WE HAVE
00:12:06.982 --> 00:12:11.220
ULTIMATELY WHEN CHRISTCOMES AND RULES IN JUSTICE.
00:12:11.253 --> 00:12:15.991
LOOK AT VERSE 6, "AND THEWOLF WILL DWELL WITH THE LAMB

"AND THE LEOPARD WILL LIEDOWN WITH THE YOUNG GOAT
00:12:19.261 --> 00:12:21.564
"AND THE CALF AND THE YOUNGLION AND THE FATLING TOGETHER.

"AND A LITTLE BOY WILL LEAD THEM

"AND THEY SHALL NOT HURT ORDESTROY IN MY HOLY MOUNTAIN

"FOR THE EARTH WILL BE FULLOF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE LORD
00:12:29.772 --> 00:12:32.408
"AS THE WATERS COVER THE SEA."
00:12:32.441 --> 00:12:34.443
WE SANG THAT SONG,THE LINE AND THE LAMB,
00:12:34.476 --> 00:12:37.046
IT COMES FROM THIS PASSAGE,
00:12:37.079 --> 00:12:38.747
THAT IS THE COMINGKINGDOM OF GOD.
00:12:38.781 --> 00:12:41.517
REMEMBER IN ACTS 1, WHENJESUS WAS GETTING READY
00:12:41.550 --> 00:12:46.222
TO ASCEND INTO HEAVEN AFTER HERECEIVED HIS RESURRECTED BODY
00:12:46.255 --> 00:12:52.428
AND HE WAS STANDINGON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES
00:12:52.461 --> 00:12:54.163
AND HE WAS ABOUT TODEPART, HIS DISCIPLES SAID,
00:12:54.196 --> 00:12:57.499
"LORD, ARE YOU AT THISTIME GOING TO RESTORE
00:12:57.533 --> 00:13:00.870
"THE KINGDOM TO ISRAEL?"
00:13:00.903 --> 00:13:03.105
THEY WERE IN FACT SAYING,LORD, BEFORE YOU LEAVE,
00:13:03.138 --> 00:13:05.941
HAVEN'T YOU FORGOTTEN SOMETHING?
00:13:05.975 --> 00:13:08.077
HAVEN'T YOU FORGOTTENTHE WHOLE REASON YOU CAME
00:13:08.110 --> 00:13:10.346
WAS TO ESTABLISH YOURKINGDOM ON EARTH?
00:13:10.379 --> 00:13:12.581
ISN'T THIS THE TIME TO DO IT?
00:13:12.615 --> 00:13:16.085
NOW, IF THE DISCIPLESHAD MISTAKENLY
00:13:16.118 --> 00:13:19.588
BELIEVED IN A LITERALKINGDOM, IF THEY WERE WRONG,
00:13:19.622 --> 00:13:22.591
THAT WOULD HAVE BEENA TIME FOR JESUS
00:13:22.625 --> 00:13:24.193
TO HAVE CLARIFIED THAT FOR THEM.
00:13:24.226 --> 00:13:26.328
HE COULD HAVE SAYS, A KINGDOM?
00:13:26.362 --> 00:13:29.064
BOYS, YOU GOT IT ALL WRONGTHESE LAST THREE YEARS.
00:13:29.098 --> 00:13:32.468
I'M NOT HERE TOESTABLISH A REAL KINGDOM,
00:13:32.501 --> 00:13:35.504
JUST A SPIRITUAL KINGDOM;THAT'S ALL I CAME TO DO.
00:13:35.537 --> 00:13:39.341
BUT HE DIDN'T SAY THAT, DID HE?
00:13:39.375 --> 00:13:41.477
IN VERSE 7 OF ACTS 1,HE SAID IT IS NOT FOR YOU
00:13:41.510 --> 00:13:44.446
TO KNOW THE TIME OR THE EPOCHS
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.282
WHEN I SHALL DO THESE THINGS,
00:13:46.315 --> 00:13:48.050
THAT IS GIVEN TOTHE FATHER ALONE,
00:13:48.083 --> 00:13:50.352
HE HAS FIXED IT BYHIS OWN AUTHORITY.
00:13:50.386 --> 00:13:53.355
IN OTHER WORDS, HE WASSAYING, IT'S COMING
00:13:53.389 --> 00:13:56.091
BUT IT'S COMING ACCORDINGTO GOD'S TIMETABLE
00:13:56.125 --> 00:13:58.761
AND NOT TO YOURS.
00:13:58.794 --> 00:14:00.262
THERE IS A KINGDOM COMING ANDIT WILL BE THE FULFILLMENT
00:14:00.296 --> 00:14:04.500
OF GOD'S ETERNAL PROMISE TOISRAEL AND ISRAEL'S DESCENDANTS.
00:14:04.533 --> 00:14:09.138
NOW THAT'S WHATTHE MILLENNIUM IS,
00:14:09.171 --> 00:14:11.774
IT IS GOD'S KINGDOM ON EARTH,
00:14:11.807 --> 00:14:14.810
THE FULFILLMENT OF THEOLD TESTAMENT PROPHECIES.
00:14:14.843 --> 00:14:17.379
NOW THROUGHOUT HISTORY,
00:14:17.413 --> 00:14:18.881
THERE HAS BEEN THREE PREVALENTVIEWS ABOUT THE MILLENNIUM.
00:14:18.914 --> 00:14:22.217
YOU MAY HAVE HEARDTHESE TERMS BEFORE,
00:14:22.251 --> 00:14:24.153
LET ME EXPLAIN THEM TO YOU.
00:14:24.186 --> 00:14:25.721
THE FIRST VIEW IS THEAMILLENNIAL POSITION
00:14:25.754 --> 00:14:30.125
OF THE KINGDOM, AMILLENNIAL.
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:32.361
IN GREEK, THAT WORD A , A,LETTER A, IS AN ALPHA PRIVATIVE.
00:14:32.394 --> 00:14:38.567
ANYTIME A APPEARS BEFORETHE WORD IT NEGATES IT,
00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:41.537
IT MEANS NO.
00:14:41.570 --> 00:14:43.172
THE AMILLENNIAL POSITIONMEANS NO MILLENNIUM.
00:14:43.205 --> 00:14:48.177
AND THERE ARE MANYCHRISTIANS WHO BELIEVE THAT,
00:14:48.210 --> 00:14:50.479
MANY GOOD CHRISTIANS.
00:14:50.512 --> 00:14:52.481
MANY OF THOSE WHO SUBSCRIBETO REFORM THEOLOGY
00:14:52.514 --> 00:14:56.185
BELIEVE IN AMILLENNIAL POSITION,
00:14:56.218 --> 00:14:58.854
THAT THERE IS NO LITERALKINGDOM OF HEAVEN ON EARTH
00:14:58.887 --> 00:15:03.158
FOR A THOUSAND YEARS.
00:15:03.192 --> 00:15:04.960
THE SECOND VIEWOF THE MILLENNIUM
00:15:04.994 --> 00:15:07.162
IS WHAT IS CALLED THEPOSTMILLENNIAL VIEW.
00:15:07.196 --> 00:15:10.366
POST MEANS AFTER,
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:12.601
WHEN DOES CHRIST COME?
00:15:12.634 --> 00:15:13.936
HE COMES AFTER THE MILLENNIUM.
00:15:13.969 --> 00:15:17.706
THIS IS THE IDEA THAT THEWORLD IS GOING TO GET BETTER
00:15:17.740 --> 00:15:21.677
AND BETTER ANDBETTER AND FINALLY
00:15:21.710 --> 00:15:23.846
IT WILL BE IN SUCHWONDERFUL SHAPE
00:15:23.879 --> 00:15:26.015
THAT CHRIST SAYS I CAN'TSTAY IN HEAVEN ANY LONGER,
00:15:26.048 --> 00:15:28.384
I'VE GOT TO COME TOTHIS PERFECT WORLD
00:15:28.417 --> 00:15:30.352
THAT MAN HAS CREATEDAND RULE OVER MAN.
00:15:30.386 --> 00:15:33.255
NOW THE THIRD VIEW ISTHE PREMILLENNIAL VIEW,
00:15:33.288 --> 00:15:36.358
THAT'S THE VIEW I SUBSCRIBEDTO AND MANY OF YOU DO.
00:15:36.392 --> 00:15:40.195
PRE MEANS BEFORE, ANDTHAT IS WE BELIEVE
00:15:40.229 --> 00:15:42.731
THAT CHRIST MUST COMEBEFORE THE MILLENNIUM.
00:15:42.765 --> 00:15:45.701
ONLY HE WILL BE ABLE TOINSTITUTE HIS REIGN HERE
00:15:45.734 --> 00:15:50.072
ON EARTH. NOW, WITHTHAT INTRODUCTION,
00:15:50.105 --> 00:15:53.442
WE'RE READY TO GET INTO THE TEXT
00:15:53.475 --> 00:15:55.711
FOR THE FINAL MOMENTS WE HAVE.
00:15:55.744 --> 00:15:58.113
WE'RE ONLY GOING TO LOOKTHE FIRST SIX VERSES
00:15:58.147 --> 00:16:00.649
ABOUT THE BEGINNINGOF THE MILLENNIUM,
00:16:00.682 --> 00:16:02.518
AND IT STARTS WITHTHE BINDING OF SATAN.
00:16:02.551 --> 00:16:04.820
LOOK AT CHAPTER 20:1,
00:16:04.853 --> 00:16:07.289
THEN JOHN SAYS, "I SAW ANANGEL COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN,
00:16:07.322 --> 00:16:10.659
"HOLDING THE KEY OF THE ABYSSAND A GREAT CHAIN IN HIS HAND.
00:16:10.692 --> 00:16:17.099
"AND AS ANGEL LAID HOLD OF THEDRAGON, THE SERVANT OF OLD,
00:16:17.132 --> 00:16:22.104
"WHO IS THE DEVIL ANDSATAN, AND HE BOUND HIM
00:16:22.137 --> 00:16:25.641
"FOR A THOUSAND YEARS."
00:16:25.674 --> 00:16:27.242
REMEMBER LAST TIMEIN CHAPTER 19,
00:16:27.276 --> 00:16:29.378
WE SAW THAT AT THEBATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON,
00:16:29.411 --> 00:16:31.580
THE ANTICHRIST AND THE FALSEPROPHET ARE SEIZED BY AN ANGEL
00:16:31.613 --> 00:16:37.719
AND THEY ARE CASTINTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
00:16:37.753 --> 00:16:39.755
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE THIRD PART
00:16:39.788 --> 00:16:41.056
OF THAT SATANICTRINITY, SATAN HIMSELF?
00:16:41.090 --> 00:16:43.826
WELL, HE HAS A SPECIAL DESTINY.
00:16:43.859 --> 00:16:46.061
THAT IS THIS ANGEL TAKES HIM
00:16:46.095 --> 00:16:47.896
AND BOUNDS HIM FORA THOUSAND YEARS.
00:16:47.930 --> 00:16:49.731
IN OTHER WORDS, TO PUT HIM INTOTHIS PLACE CALLED THE ABYSS,
00:16:49.765 --> 00:16:53.936
THE BOTTOMLESS PIT.
00:16:53.969 --> 00:16:55.704
LOOK AT VERSE 3, "AND HETHREW HIM," THAT IS SATAN,
00:16:55.737 --> 00:16:58.907
"INTO THE ABYSS AND SHUTIT AND SEALED IT OVER HIM
00:16:58.941 --> 00:17:02.911
"SO THAT HE WOULD NOT DECEIVETHE NATIONS ANY LONGER
00:17:02.945 --> 00:17:05.914
"UNTIL THE THOUSANDYEARS WERE COMPLETED.
00:17:05.948 --> 00:17:09.618
"AND AFTER THESE THINGS,HE MUST BE RELEASED
00:17:09.651 --> 00:17:11.854
"FOR A SHORT TIME."
00:17:11.887 --> 00:17:13.388
HE IS GOING TO BE BOUNDFOR A THOUSAND YEARS
00:17:13.422 --> 00:17:19.828
SO THAT HE CAN DO NOTHING ONTHE EARTH FOR A THOUSAND YEARS
00:17:19.862 --> 00:17:21.930
DURING THIS MILLENNIUM, THETHOUSAND YEAR REIGN OF CHRIST.
00:17:21.964 --> 00:17:26.135
AND THIS IS THE PREDOMINANTFEATURE OF THE MILLENNIUM.
00:17:26.168 --> 00:17:28.937
IT IS A TIME WHENSATAN IS BOUND,
00:17:28.971 --> 00:17:33.008
WHICH MAKES THE AMILLENNIALPOSITION SO LUDICROUS.
00:17:33.041 --> 00:17:37.146
SATAN IS IN NO WAYBOUND RIGHT NOW.
00:17:37.179 --> 00:17:40.215
LOOK AROUND YOU, LOOK IN YOUROWN WORLD AT WHAT'S HAPPENING.
00:17:40.249 --> 00:17:43.485
SATAN SEEMS TO BE RUNNINGRAMPANT ALL OVER THE WORLD,
00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:47.856
BUT HIS TIME IS SHORT.
00:17:47.890 --> 00:17:49.124
THERE IS COMING A TIMEWHEN HE WILL BE BOUND
00:17:49.158 --> 00:17:51.627
FOR A THOUSAND YEARS.
00:17:51.660 --> 00:17:52.828
NOW, HOW LONG IS THE MILLENNIUM?
00:17:52.861 --> 00:17:56.265
WELL, IT'S A THOUSAND YEARS.
00:17:56.298 --> 00:17:58.200
IN FACT, IN THE FIRST SEVENVERSES OF REVELATION 20,
00:17:58.233 --> 00:18:01.503
THE PHRASE THOUSANDYEARS IS USED SIX TIMES
00:18:01.537 --> 00:18:05.974
SO THAT NOBODY MENTIONS IT.
00:18:06.008 --> 00:18:07.809
THIS IS A THOUSANDYEAR PERIOD OF TIME.
00:18:07.843 --> 00:18:11.380
BUT HERE IN VERSE 4,I WANT YOU TO NOTICE
00:18:11.413 --> 00:18:14.917
ONE OTHER ASPECTOF THE MILLENNIUM
00:18:14.950 --> 00:18:16.752
THAT GOD REVEALS TO JOHN.
00:18:16.785 --> 00:18:20.088
LOOK AT VERSE 4, AFTERSATAN HAS BEEN BOUND,
00:18:20.122 --> 00:18:23.025
LOOK AT WHAT JOHN SAYS HE SAW;
00:18:23.058 --> 00:18:25.460
"I SAW THRONES ANDTHEY THAT SAT UPON THEM
00:18:25.494 --> 00:18:28.530
"AND JUDGMENT WAS GIVEN TO THEM.
00:18:28.564 --> 00:18:31.667
"AND I SAW THE SOULS OFTHOSE WHO HAD BEEN BEHEADED
00:18:31.700 --> 00:18:34.870
"BECAUSE OF THEIRTESTIMONY OF JESUS
00:18:34.903 --> 00:18:37.005
"AND BECAUSE OF THE WORD OF GOD,
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:39.107
"AND THOSE WHO HAD NOTWORSHIPED THE BEAST OR HIS IMAGE
00:18:39.141 --> 00:18:42.211
"AND HAD NOT RECEIVED THEMARK ON THEIR FOREHEAD
00:18:42.244 --> 00:18:44.446
"OR ON THEIR HAND,AND THEY CAME TO LIFE
00:18:44.479 --> 00:18:48.317
"AND ALSO REIGNED WITHCHRIST FOR A THOUSAND YEARS."
00:18:48.350 --> 00:18:51.220
WHO IS HE TALKING ABOUT HERE?
00:18:51.253 --> 00:18:53.188
HE'S TALKING ABOUT THOSE PEOPLE
00:18:53.222 --> 00:18:55.657
WHO WERE SAVED DURINGTHE TRIBULATION
00:18:55.691 --> 00:18:57.426
AND WERE MARTYRED,BEHEADED FOR THEIR FAITH.
00:18:57.459 --> 00:19:00.662
HE SAID, I SAW THEM AS WELL,
00:19:00.696 --> 00:19:03.398
AND THEY CAME TO LIFEAND REIGNED WITH CHRIST.
00:19:03.432 --> 00:19:07.002
AND THEN HE ADDS THISWORD IN VERSE 5:
00:19:07.035 --> 00:19:09.771
"THE REST OF THE DEADDID NOT COME TO LIFE
00:19:09.805 --> 00:19:13.742
"UNTIL THE THOUSANDYEARS WERE COMPLETED."
00:19:13.775 --> 00:19:16.812
WHO IS THAT?
00:19:16.845 --> 00:19:18.146
THAT'S THE UNSAVED DEAD.
00:19:18.180 --> 00:19:19.514
AGAIN, WE'LL LOOKAT THAT NEXT WEEK.
00:19:19.548 --> 00:19:21.450
THEY ARE RAISED FORJUDGMENT, BUT THEN HE SAYS,
00:19:21.483 --> 00:19:25.053
THIS IS THE FIRST RESURRECTION.
00:19:25.087 --> 00:19:26.855
EVERYTHING HE HAS JUSTDESCRIBED IN VERSE 4
00:19:26.888 --> 00:19:29.825
AND HE ADDS THIS WORD:"BLESSED AND HOLY
00:19:29.858 --> 00:19:32.928
"IS THE ONE WHO HAS A PARTIN THE FIRST RESURRECTION;
00:19:32.961 --> 00:19:35.731
"OVER THE SECONDDEATH HAS NO POWER,
00:19:35.764 --> 00:19:38.767
"BUT THEY WILL BE PRIESTOF GOD AND OF CHRIST
00:19:38.800 --> 00:19:41.837
"AND WILL REIGN WITH HIMFOR A THOUSAND YEARS."
00:19:41.870 --> 00:19:45.707
HERE JOHN AND PRODUCESAN IMPORTANT CONCEPT
00:19:45.741 --> 00:19:48.644
TO UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE.
00:19:48.677 --> 00:19:50.212
THERE ARE TWO RESURRECTIONS.
00:19:50.245 --> 00:19:53.148
THE FIRST RESURRECTION IS THERESURRECTION OF SAVED PEOPLE
00:19:53.181 --> 00:19:57.853
AND THEY ARE RAISEDTO EXPERIENCE
00:19:57.886 --> 00:19:59.888
GOD'S BLESSING FOR ETERNITY.
00:19:59.921 --> 00:20:02.324
BUT THE SECOND RESURRECTIONIS A RESURRECTION
00:20:02.357 --> 00:20:05.193
OF THE UNSAVED; THEYARE RAISED FROM THE DEAD
00:20:05.227 --> 00:20:09.231
TO EXPERIENCE GOD'STORMENT FOREVER AND EVER.
00:20:09.264 --> 00:20:14.169
AND THAT'S WHY JOHN SAYS,BLESSED, HAPPY IS THE PERSON
00:20:14.202 --> 00:20:17.739
WHO'S A PART OF THEFIRST RESURRECTION.
00:20:17.773 --> 00:20:20.776
LET'S IN CLOSING LOOK ATTHIS FIRST RESURRECTION
00:20:20.809 --> 00:20:24.112
FOR JUST A MOMENT.
00:20:24.146 --> 00:20:25.814
WHO DOES IT ENCOMPASSAND HOW DOES IT WORK?
00:20:25.847 --> 00:20:29.351
PAUL EXPLAINS IT IN1 CORINTHIANS 15:20-24.
00:20:29.384 --> 00:20:33.855
HE SAYS, "BUT NOW CHRIST HASBEEN RAISED FROM THE DEAD
00:20:33.889 --> 00:20:37.025
"AND THE FIRST FRUITSOF THOSE WHO ARE ASLEEP.
00:20:37.059 --> 00:20:39.928
"FOR SINCE BY A MAN CAME DEATH,
00:20:39.961 --> 00:20:42.431
"BY A MAN ALSO CAME THERESURRECTION OF THE DEAD.
00:20:42.464 --> 00:20:45.634
"FOR AS IN ADAM ALLDIE, SO ALSO IN CHRIST
00:20:45.667 --> 00:20:49.171
"ALL WILL BE MADE ALIVE,BUT EACH IN HIS OWN ORDER."
00:20:49.204 --> 00:20:55.577
IF YOU ARE IN CHRIST, YOU'REGOING TO RECEIVE A BRAND NEWBODY,
00:20:55.610 --> 00:20:58.880
BUT YOU HAVE TO WAIT YOUR TURN.
00:20:58.914 --> 00:21:02.150
THERE IS AN ORDERTO WHICH PEOPLE
00:21:02.184 --> 00:21:04.219
WILL RECEIVE THEIR NEW BODIES.
00:21:04.252 --> 00:21:07.089
BUT THE POINT IS, EVEN THOUGHIT HAPPENS THROUGHOUT HISTORY,
00:21:07.122 --> 00:21:10.359
ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARESTILL PART OF THAT GROUP
00:21:10.392 --> 00:21:13.161
CALLED THE FIRST RESURRECTION.
00:21:13.195 --> 00:21:15.764
BUT THEN THERE IS ASECOND RESURRECTION,
00:21:15.797 --> 00:21:18.200
VERSE 5 SAYS, "THE RESTOF THE DEAD DID NOT COME
00:21:18.233 --> 00:21:21.670
"UNTIL THE THOUSANDYEARS WERE COMPLETED."
00:21:21.703 --> 00:21:24.306
THESE ARE THE PEOPLEWHO ARE RAISED
00:21:24.339 --> 00:21:26.375
FOR THE GREAT WHITETHRONE JUDGMENT
00:21:26.408 --> 00:21:28.844
THAT WE'LL LOOK AT NEXT TIME.
00:21:28.877 --> 00:21:30.746
THEY ARE RAISED NOT TOEXPERIENCE GOD'S BLESSING,
00:21:30.779 --> 00:21:33.482
BUT TO EXPERIENCE HIS TORMENT.
00:21:33.515 --> 00:21:37.419
IF THERE IS ONE TRUTHI WANT TO LEAVE YOU WITH
00:21:37.452 --> 00:21:41.022
THAT COMES FROM THISPASSAGE, IT IS THIS:
00:21:41.056 --> 00:21:43.725
WHEN WE DIE, WE DONOT CEASE TO EXIST.
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:50.165
DEATH IS NOT THE END FOR ANYONE,CHRISTIAN OR NON-CHRISTIAN.
00:21:50.198 --> 00:21:56.772
INSTEAD, PHYSICAL DEATHIS JUST THE DOORWAY
00:21:56.805 --> 00:22:00.409
THROUGH WHICH WEENTER INTO ETERNITY,
