ONE THOUSAND YEARS OF PEACE - THE GOLDEN ERA

The following biblical descriptions, given us in chapter twenty, are about to tell us that mankind will eventually enter into a golden era whereby we will be blessed with a thousand years of a most great peace. However, we shall also learn later on, in later chapters, that it will be a peaceful era on a planet that has been completely decimated of any population.

Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hands. He seized the dragon, that serpent of old, the Devil or Satan, and chained him for a thousand years; he threw him into the abyss, shutting and sealing it over him, so that he might seduce the nations no more till the thousand years were over. After that he must be let loose for a short while. Revelation 20 : 1 to 20 : 3

That prophecy is very symbolically written, it is actually saying that, after the last war of all wars, after a period of lesser peace, we will finally have an era of a most great peace whereby tranquillity will last for a period of no less than a thousand years. This can only come about when all of the earthly nations have become united together, working together through an international body to insure that a most great peace is finally kept in the world.

The mentioned peace will last for a period of no less than a thousand years and, with the ending of those years, a war of words will break out but only for a short while. The peace will then be broken for the very last time on planet earth. The most great peace will then continue for eons and eons because mankind will have finally reached maturity.

The first Christian scholars have done it again. They have added words to that paragraph, they have written that the dragon is the serpent of old and that he is the devil or Satan. Proof has already being presented you that such sayings are not true. I have already mentioned that there is no such entity as the devil or Satan. God never created a spirit entity who is as powerful as He is and who can do whatever he wants. Such fallacies are nothing but manufactured lies. Filling the minds of people with such foolishness. There is only one God not two. To say that there is an evil entity as powerful as God is believing in two gods, the bad one being as powerful or more powerful as the good one. Believe me when I say that one God is quite sufficient for us, we most definitely do not need another who is mischievous and satanic. Satan is not an entity but rather a symbolic way of speaking. Human beings have free will and can do good or evil. When human beings do evil it is said that they are satanic, symbolically speaking. When they do good deeds, it is said that they are angelic in their actions.

Then I saw thrones, and upon them sat those to whom judgement was committed. I could see the souls of those who had been beheaded for the sake of God's word and their testimony to Jesus Christ, those who had not worshipped the beast and its image or received its mark on forehead or hand. These came to life again and reigned with Christ for a thousand years, though the rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were over. This is the first resurrection.

Happy indeed, and one of God's own people, is the man who shares in this first resurrection! Upon such the second (spiritual) death has no claim; but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him for the thousand years. Revelation 20 : 4 to 20 : 6

Those are very symbolic sayings. The meaning of those who came to life again is not to be taken literally because it is not a physical return, which is an impossibility. Keep in mind the fact that the described events are spiritual happenings.

The corruption of the holy writings have once again fallen under the pen of those writers, they have added the word priest to the above saying. God never created any priests, they created themselves and took over the reins of all the world religions. In every revelation that God gave to humanity, He always spoke out against the teachers of religion who call themselves priests. In this present Revelation, He has told us that they have not only taken over the reins of all the religions but they have also given us false interpretations. I suggest that you study the 23rd chapter of the writings of the Apostle Matthew, in its entirety, because it speaks out against religious teachers. If you still think that religious teachers are capable of teaching us the truth, think again because God has told us that they have never investigated for the truth, therefore they are not capable of teaching it. Whom should we listen to so that we can discover the truth, religious teachers or God speaking to us through His prophets and Messengers?

A BATTLE OF WORDS - THEN WILL COME THE MOST GREAT PEACE

When the thousand years of the most great peace are over, Satan will be let loose from his dungeon; and he will come out to seduce the nations in the four quarters of the earth and to muster them to battle, yes, the host of Gog and Magog, countless as the sands of the sea. So they marched over the breadth of the land and laid siege to the camp of God's people and the city that he loves.

But fire came down on them from heaven and consumed them ; and the Devil, their seducer, was flung into the lake of fire and sulphur, where the beast and the false prophet had been flung, there to be tormented day and night for ever. Revelation 20 : 7 to 20 : 10

First I would like to say that the early Christian scholars re-wrote that verse. They took the description of Gog and Megog from the writings of Ezechiel, making the same mistake as the Jewish Rabbis did. The battle of Armageddon has already occurred. It occurred during the time period of world war one. The British, under the leadership of general Allenby, chased the Turkish army from the Holy land. They left in a hurry, leaving all of their war material scattered throughout the holy land. The young Turks of Turkey rebelled against their government, dislodging them from power. That last battle which is to take place after a thousand years of the most great peace is not the battle of Armageddon. It will not be a war whereby planes, cannons and armaments of war are utilized. No, it will be a battle of words.

For now, it is best that we forget about that prophesied event because it is much too far into the future. Let us be hopeful that the people of this planet will remember that prophecy in that far away future so that they may take the appropriate actions to re-establish the most great peace which will be broken after the peaceful millennium.

Then I saw a great white throne, and the One who sat upon it; from his presence earth and heaven vanished away, and no place was left for them. I could see the dead, great and small, standing before the throne ; and books were opened. Then another book was opened, the roll of the living. From what was written in these books the dead were judged upon the record of their deeds.

The sea gave up its dead, and Death and Hades gave up the dead in their keeping; they were judged, each man on the record of his deeds. Then Death and Hades were flung into the lake of fire. This lake of fire is the second death ; and into it were flung any whose names were not to be found in the roll of the living. Revelation 20 : 11 to 20 : 15

The heavenly throne is now all white, it represents the Godhead. If you remember correctly the heavenly throne was described, in earlier chapters, as being golden in colour. Those descriptions are heavenly happenings so there are no human words that can possibly be utilized to explain those sayings.

If you do not believe in God then you are considered to be spiritually dead. Therefore, your name cannot possibly be entered into the book with those who are alive spiritually. Believing in God does not mean believing only in what religious teachers tell you to believe. No, believing in God means to believe in the truth as it is given to us by God's servants who are His Prophets and His Messengers. They tell the truth. It is the religious teachers who come afterwards and who take over the reins of religion, they are the ones who falsify the word of God by changing or adding new principles which become new burdens for the people of that religion. They also re-write their holy book to please themselves as to its meanings.

Those spiritual teachers eventually destroy that religion. They teach people to hate those they personally dislike and who do not think the same way as they do. They disdain those who are constantly searching for the truth and who are questioning what they are told by themselves. Those teachers claim that they are the only ones who know the truth, so history keeps on repeating itself and the same mistakes are made over and over...

Religion, as given to mankind, is only pure at the beginning but it does not stay pure for very long because some leaders of religion contribute to the corruption of its given principles. They even have the audacity of modifying its holy Books. They run that religion the way that they see fit and not as it was originally meant to be. That is the reason why two complete chapters of Revelation, chapters two and tree, have explained the shortcomings of the seven great world religions.

My opinion is that the people of this world will eventually have to abolish all religious leadership. They will have to take the reins of religion into their own hands in order to stop the corruption that has taken place at the hands of some of its teachers. In the future, the people of this world will not allow that they be lied to anymore. They will be able to form their own opinions concerning Holy writings. They will no longer be told by others that they must believe only in what they are told to believe. Those are archaic ways of teaching religion.

In the future, mankind will have many beliefs. They will discuss them amongst themselves and then, eventually, amongst other people who live in other parts of our gigantic universe. We, someday, will have dialogues with those other beings and then we will take our rightful place amongst them in our vast universe created for us by God Himself.

The following presentation also explains that God has given His new religion twelve brand new principles that are badly needed. The people of this world need to study them very carefully. That particular presentation is labelled :

A new heaven, a new earth
