Our Millennium Force!
"He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent
of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and
bound him for a thousand years."
Revelation 20:
2
When we entered the new millennium
, millennium became a popular word. The
United Nations came up with Millennium
Development Goals. Chicago boasts its
Millennium Park. Numerous businesses
include this word in their titles, such as
Millennium Records, Millennium Bank,
and Millennium Media.
But the real Millennium is coming—a thousand
years of world peace when Satan will be bound,
Jesus Christ reigns, and righteousness will rule.
The Bible teaches that after the Tribulation,
Jesus Christ physically returns to this planet.
He defeats enemies and readys His Kingdom
on earth. And He will reign on the earth for a
thousand years.
During this time, all promises of the Old
Testament concerning the Kingdom will
be fulfilled with the redeemed Jews living
in their homeland in peace and prosperity.
Too often we overlook the first verses of
Revelation 20. But we must long for that
day when every knee will bow and every
tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is
Lord to the glory of God!
"The Millennium will be the time when
there will be the full manifestation of
the glory, the power and the will of
God over this earth."
