Welcome And End Times Recap

SPEAKER_00 0:00

Hello, everybody, and welcome to today's episode of Walk With Me. I am your host, JJ. It's good to have each and every one of you here. Good to have you with us walking on this path to heaven. Because that's eventually where we want to go, right? So uh, and and it's just good. I'm thank you, each and every one of you, for liking, sharing, listening, taking a few moments of your time to to join us on this podcast. I thank you all for your questions. I love each and every one of them. We're gonna jump right into it. Uh, we do have our sponsors, we'll talk about them later, but we have a lot to cover today because we've come down to the end of this particular question. And the question was, what about the end time? And so we've we've come, we've gone through the the the rapture, and we've gone through what the end times was. We've talked about the tribulation, we've talked about the earthquakes and the fire and the blood and the hail and the antichrist and the mark of the beast, and all of the things are gonna happen, and now we've come to the millennial reign. This is the pretty much the end of the book of Revelation, and there's still two big things that are going to happen, and one of them is the millennial reign, and by millennial reign I mean the millennial kingdom. Now, I have heard it said um that there is no such thing as the word millennial in the Bible, and that's true, the word itself does not exist in the Bible, however, the the term 1000 years is mentioned uh somewhere in the um in the area of uh six or seven times within um six or seven verses, so it's very clear that there will be a one thousand-year period where there will be this millennial reign. And and I've actually heard a term called the amillennialism, which if you know how to break down words, millennial means or but millennial is a thousand, um, an annual or millennial means years, but then you put a in front of it, it means a millennial, which

Why The Thousand Years Is Literal

SPEAKER_00 2:10

means people there are people who believe that that the 1,000-year reign will not happen, but the Bible tells us that it is. So it is very dangerous to try to uh talk about things that the Bible directly contradicts because I'm gonna tell you right now, I'm gonna believe the Bible over someone who says their name is Dr. So and so or deacon so-and-so, there is a millennial reign coming. So, what is that millennial reign? We gotta understand that little interpretation, and that's the best way of really understanding scripture, is to know that there's going to be a thousand years after everything is said and done. Um, now, just like for example, when the Bible talks about the children of Israel wandering the desert for 40 years, we're not just going to assume that the Bible meant 83 or 61 or 19 or 4. It literally meant 40 years. So when we hear that Jesus is going to reign on earth for a thousand years, we gotta take it at face value. Um, now this is what is called the seventh day of God's week. Now, what does that mean? That means that if you're one of our series that we had on dispensationalism, it there's the the biblical uh concept that the Bible is written on the term of God's week. And basically, just to kind of put it in a nutshell, each thousand years is one day, and one day is a thousand years. There is an actual verse that says that. Um, where uh don't know you not that the day day of the Lord, uh a day with the Lord is a thousand years, and a thousand years is one day, and so when you look at that, you go back, you start reading the timelines, you notice that God sort of changes his um interaction with man roughly about every thousand years. You know, you had the you had the creation to the flood, and then you had, I mean, if you go back through, and then basically from the time that Jesus was uh Jesus was crucified, that was the end of a thousand-year period. And this is why it's a little bit different as we as far as God is not gonna hit you with exactly right on the dot with a thousand years, he may delay or move it up, depending on uh how he is is working things. We remember we are on a Roman calendar, we are not actually on God's calendar, so we're kind of guesstimating, and through that guesstimation, we realize that God changes his interaction with us for every thousand years. So this seventh day, which is the millennial reign, um, is where God is going to institute his quote-unquote sabbatical rest, so it's going to be a thousand reign, thousand years of peace, and people on earth are gonna just live in as close to heaven as they can get without actually having gone to heaven. And you hear a lot of um, or you can read in in the book of Revelation where the people who were the church of God will be um the people who will come back and reign with Christ for that thousand years. Now, it's you gotta understand something about this thousand years of peace, it absolutely cannot happen as long as the devil is out. If he's

Peace Requires Satan To Be Bound

SPEAKER_00 5:45

free to continue trying to manipulate folks and deceive folks, so the way we're going to know that you're gonna have the 1,000 years of peace is Revelation 20, verse 1 and 2, you will see that the devil is bound and tossed into a pit for guess what? 1,000 years. So before that, though, before that, you're gonna see the false prophet, you're going to see uh the beast, you're gonna see them cast alive into the lake of fire. So you're gonna have the beast, you're gonna have the false prophet, you're gonna have the devil, the devil's gonna be tossed into a bottomless pit, and he's gonna be stuck there for a thousand years. The beast and the false prophet, they're cooked, they're gonna be cast alive into the lake of fire, they're gonna be there for eternity. All right, and so when the the the weirdest part is, especially about the Bible, I guess you don't want to call it weird, but the the most um interesting part, let's use that word, the most interesting part of all of this is that the only two people that are gonna be in the lake of fire to this point will be the beast and the false prophet, because they're gonna be the first ones there, and we're gonna get back into that because after this thousand years, and I don't want to get ahead of myself, the great white throne judgment is coming, and then you're gonna see everybody else tossed in. So, now these three and a half years earlier, before this thousand years, the devil's gonna be thrown out of heaven completely. See, as of right now, he can walk up and down in heaven, he can walk up and down in earth. As a matter of fact, if you read the book of Job, God asked Satan, um, where where did you come from? And the Bible clearly said that the devil was presenting himself to God. So, and uh what happens, I believe it was it said something to the effect of and there came a day when the sons of God presented him themselves to God, and Satan came amongst them. So, and and God said, Hey man, where you came from? And the devil said, Well, I I came from down the street here in the earth and walking up and down in it. So that's going to continue to happen, however, in Revelation, we talked about where there's going to be a final war, and the devil's going to be tossed out of heaven. And the Bible does not name the angel who's going to bind the devil, so we don't know if it's going to be Michael. I've seen people talk about that, but either way, the devil is going to be bound, and the devils are going to be bound as well. I mean, by say devils, I mean the demons, the fallen angels that fell with the devil will be bound as well. Now, here's the thing, and I wanted to touch on this because we mentioned it earlier. This amillennialism, uh, it teaches that the devil is actually bound at Calvary. This is why it's very careful that we have to touch, uh, read the Bible and take it as face value. And that if the devil was bound,

Why The Devil Is Not Bound Yet

SPEAKER_00 9:05

then the sin that we have now, the deception and the manipulation that we see these days, could not happen. So that wouldn't make any sense. And the fallacy this is shown by the fact when he's bound, he's not going to deceive the nations any longer in verse 3. And today he continues to deceive the whole world and all the nations with things like uh atheism and ungodly ideologies and doctrines that contradict the word of God. So we know that this hasn't happened yet. Now, during the tribulation, hundreds of people who did not get raptured will be martyred. This is going to be called the tribulation saints, and I wanted I I just kind of glazed over it, and somebody sent me a question about these tribulation saints. I was under the impression, and I'm going to just point out here where I kind of had a bit of a growth here. I was under the impression that if you didn't make the rapture, there was no way you were going to make it happen. This is not exactly true. You won't have the the Bible kind of puts you in a different category, but if you're able to maintain your um maintain your faith and maintain your strength, then there is a small way, as they as they like to say in poker, there is an inside straight you can run to get to heaven. When I say inside straight, it's like getting struck by lightning. It's possible, but it is going to be difficult to do and very painful. Um, because you're gonna these people are gonna be killed for the word of God, they're going to be uh ostracized, they're gonna have to go through a lot of uh, they're gonna have to watch their families get get hurt, and it's going to be a ridiculous amount of pain. Then this is prior to the millennial reign, right? I know we're trying to talk about the millennial reign, but there's some things I kind of glazed over and I wanted to touch base with it. Now, now during this millennial kingdom, it doesn't um say that the people who are martyred will be kings and priests, but and the reason why it says that well, the reason why I brought that up is because someone asked me, can can these offices um be handed out? Do we have crowns of our own? Well, Revelation 5 and 10 covers that covers that they're going to not have the new birth, they're not gonna have the the be born in bat uh born in Jesus' name and water baptism

Tribulation Saints And A Hard Path

SPEAKER_00 11:55

and getting the Holy Ghost, but they will be qualified through their knowledge of God's word, and the testimonies will be by laying down their lives for the integrity of God's word and refusal to take the mark of the beast. Again, this is literally running what what poker would be considered an inside straight, which is incredibly difficult to do. Now, during the millennials, this millennial reign, the Bible talks about how the length of men's lives are going to be extended and the earth is going to be populated again. Millions of people are gonna be righteous and and law-abiding and doing exactly what God wants them to do because Satan won't be around to deceive people, his devils won't be around to manipulate them, but they are not regenerated. In other words, the Bible doesn't talk about anybody um not having the Holy Ghost, it doesn't talk about anybody getting the Holy Ghost, and it doesn't talk about anybody being baptized in Jesus' name, it just talks about a season of peace, a 1,000-year period of peace. But, and the reason why this is important, um, human nature is not going to be changed. In other words, we will have knowing we'll be knowing the peace of God and able to do the right thing only because we sort of don't have a choice. Because one of the biggest things that people talk about, and this is one of the biggest deceptions of the enemy, is that when you are when you're able to choose things, if you choose things based on just your flesh, you will automatically choose sin. If you choose things because God is telling you this is the way it is, and you just how you're gonna live, then you're gonna choose to live for God. And the reason why that's important is because after that time, after that millennial season, the Satan, the devil is released again, and this time he only has a short time to tempt everybody, and is going to expose just how sinful man's nature is, and it's gonna expose the fact that the devil can't make you sin, we have to choose to sin, and when we choose to sin, we are going to allow the devil to deceive us and therefore deceive ourselves, and for some it's gonna be basically a re kind of a redo of the Satan convincing Eve to uh to take part of the tree of knowledge, to tell partake of the tree of knowledge, and we're gonna learn real quick that we chose the tree of knowledge again, we chose to eat of the tree of knowledge, and therefore we choose our own wisdom over God's wisdom, and I mean anybody um who is not born again and who is of the same worldly sinful nature, we're going to choose our own human nature again, the same way we did in the Garden of Eden, the same way we're gonna do at the end of this millennial reign, even though we've already known what it is like to live for God for a thousand years or 900 years or 800 years or 700 years, we are going to know what it's like to have this peace and tranquility and living the way God intended for us to live, and then someone's gonna come along and offer us the choice, and we are going to literally choose death, and that's that's insane to me, but it is going to happen because the Bible says it's gonna happen, and you and I both know that given that we

Millennial Life Without Regeneration

SPEAKER_00 15:55

as human beings have chosen death for the entirety of our existence. We had a good time in the Garden of Eden, and then we decided that we were gonna eat of the fruit, and then we was gonna let our wives tell us to eat of the fruit, and then we chose to eat of the fruit, and it's going to be the exact same binary choice, however, after this, after this, there will be another great battle. Now, this is not to be confused with the battle of Armageddon, this is another completely different battle. This battle is where the devil's going to gather two huge armies, he's going to try to take over the new Jerusalem city. This is not this is not the old Jerusalem where you know the blood is gonna run uh uh bridle deep to a horse. This is a completely different one, and the reason why you know it's a completely different one, different battle. If you read Revelation 20, there is a completely different outcome. There isn't any, there aren't any birds to pick over the uh the bodies of soldiers. It's going to be uh Revelation 20. Matter of fact, let me read it 20 and 7. Let me start at 7. And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison and shall go out and deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, the number of whom is the sand and the sea. Again, now we are not talking about the battle of Armageddon. This is a completely different battle, and Satan is gonna deceive all the world that's still out there, and they are going to gather together, even at the knowing all that peace, they're going to gather together to do what fight against God, and the reason why you know it's gonna fight against God because keep reading, and they went up upon the breath of the earth and uh compassed the camp of the saints about the beloved city, and fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. That is it, there's no blood there, there's no birds eating the flesh off the fallen bodies, it's just fire came down and roasted everybody, and just took out everybody. The Satan's and God, the Satan have are not even gonna have to fight, they are just going to be gone. And

Satan Released And Human Nature Exposed

SPEAKER_00 18:35

once you understand that, it it makes sense that it's a different kind of battle that is fought for the battle of Armageddon before Jesus returns, completely different scenario, completely different outcome, and immediately we go into what is known as the great white throne judgment, which you haven't seen up until now, and now it comes into play. And only now does the devil get tossed into the lake of fire. Let me go ahead and keep reading here. And the devil that deceived them was was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. So, as you can see, the beast and the false prophet are already in the lake of fire, they were only two there, right? Now the devil joins them, and he's tossed in there too, and they shall be tormented day and night forever and ever. And let me just stop right there, too, because there's also this kind of an ideology that um that once you go into hell, you kind of burned up and you you don't exist anymore. This is not true. You you are burning in hell and then tossed into the lake of fire to burn for eternity. So that's that's kind of morbid to think about because you're burning until the end of time, and then you're tossed into the lake of fire to burn for eternity. So that's I mean, I don't want to get off into that just yet, but that's how the Bible reads. And then I saw a great white throne, and him that sat upon it, whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. Now we're at the great white throne judgment, and here's where everybody is actually judged. You're already judged by based on where you went, but now you're going to know exactly the reason why you went there. And the books were open, and another book was open, and which is the book of life, and the dead were judged out of those things were written in the book according to their works, and the sea gave up their dead, and the death and hell were delivered up the dead which were in them, and they were judged every man according to their works, and death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. So death and hell tossed away. Then, whosoever was not found

Gog And Magog Ends In Fire

SPEAKER_00 20:55

written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. So that is that is the pretty much the end of the end time because now we're in eternity, and then the next chapter is pretty much the epilogue of the end time, and and it's gonna describe heaven, and it's going to go into um what heaven is like and the three rivers, and and at the end of it all, John is gonna say, Even so, Lord, please come. So, even though we went through all of that, this millennial the end of the millennial reign is still gonna have some action. When I say action, it's gonna have another war, and Satan's gonna lose that war, and he he's and none of the saints even gonna have to fight on this one because God is gonna come down and devour like fire from heaven, and it is going to be just like he did with Sodom and Gomorrah, and and somebody asked me to prove Sodom and Gomorrah exist, and I'm still doing the research on that, but the stuff I found is amazing, so be sure to stick out for uh stick around for that.
