1. «an angel with the key
to the abyss […]
seized […] Satan, and bound him for 1,000 years. […] After that, he will be released for
a short time»
Revelation
20:1-3
2. «They came to life and
ruled with Christ
for 1,000 years. This — the first
resurrection. […] They will be priests of God and Christ and will rule with Him
for 1,000 years»
Note: Christian scriptures
not only nowhere say
that during the 1,000 years people will not die, but also do not specify how the 1,000-year
reign in heaven will affect Earth and humanity.
The main
purpose — to be «priests of God and Christ».
Revelation
20:4-6
3. «When
the 1,000 years are over, Satan will be
released from prison. He will go out to deceive
the nations […] and gather them for war. […] They advanced across the earth and surrounded
the camp of the saints and the beloved city. But fire came down from heaven
and
destroyed them. And the Devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur»
Note: as seen from these verses, the reign does not
cease after 1,000 years, but events unfold further, leading to the destruction of the Devil.
This happens BEFORE the so-called «second resurrection» [this phrase is not found in
Christian scriptures].
Revelation
20:7-10
«The final test»???
Christian scriptures nowhere mention a «final test».
«[God] does not tempt anyone with evil [= Satan]»
James
1:13 2 Peter 2:9
«So Jehovah knows how to deliver
the devoted ones from trials»
4. «I saw
the dead, […] who stood before
the throne. […] The […] scroll of life was opened. And the dead were judged according to
what
was written in the scrolls, in accordance with their deeds. The sea gave up
the dead,
death and the grave
gave up the dead, and each of them was judged according to their deeds»
Note:
as seen from these verses, RESURRECTION and JUDGMENT
occur only AFTER the destruction of the Devil.
What «final test» could there even
be?
Revelation
20:12-13
5. «And death and the grave were
thrown into the lake of fire. […] Those whose names were not found written in the book of life
were also
thrown into the lake of fire»
Revelation
20:14-15 1 Corinthians 15:24-28
«Then the end, when He, having put an end to all governments, authorities, and powers,
hands over the Kingdom to His God and Father. For He
must reign until God has put all
enemies under His feet. And the last enemy to be
destroyed — death»
Евреям 10:12-13
«Христос принёс одну жертву, которая избавляет от грехов навсегда. После этого он сел по правую руку от Бога и с тех пор ждёт, когда его враги будут положены ему под ноги»
«Потом конец, когда он, покончив со всеми правительствами, властями и силами,
передаст Царство своему Богу и Отцу. Ведь он
должен царствовать, пока Бог не повергнет всех
врагов к его ногам. И последний враг, с которым
будет
покончено, — смерть»
1 Коринфянам 15:24-28
Note: it is now clear when Jesus
humbly
hands over authority to His Father.
