A 1000 years of peace
Isaiah 2:2-4 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
This is also promised in Micah 4:1-8, Zechariah 14:16-21, Amos 9:11-15
Another reference is Psalm 110 concerning end times
The Lord Jesus will fulfill ALL of the Promises made to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob: the Jewish Nation.

The bottomless pit is mentioned in Revelation 9:1-2,11, 11:7, 17:8

The final Judgement of SIN (rebellion against God). It comes at the end of the 1000-year reign of Christ Jesus on earth. Read Revelation 20-21.
Old testament Saints (Those who believed in God by Faith) will not be there as they went to heaven with Christ at his resurrection (Ephesians 4:8-10).
Believers who have died since the resurrection are also in Heaven,
2 Corinthians 5:8 and won’t be there. And we who are alive when the rapture occurs, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 also won’t be Judged at the Great White Throne.
Then who will be judged at the Great White Thone?
According to Revelation 20, all the unbelievers, unsaved, all those who have rebelled since Satan fell from heaven, Isaiah 14:12-15.
The Devil (having been freed from the bottomless pit, Revelation 20:3,7 will be cast alive into the LAKE OF FIRE where the beast and false prophet are. Revelation 20:10
All unbelievers (alive and those in Hell (who will be brought up)
Revelation 20:12-13 will be brought before the Great White Throne and Judged – GUILTY. They along with DEATH and HELL will be cast into the LAKE OF FIRE. Revelation 20:14-15
Again, NO BELIEVER (those who expressed faith in God through Christ Jesus) will not be Judged at the Great White Throne. Believers judgment was at the Judgement (Bema) seat of Christ:
2 Corinthians 5:10, Romans 14:11-12, 1 Corinthians 3:11-15
Believers never need fear the Great White Throne Judgement.
Believers are at the Great White Throne it will be “To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;”. Read Psalm 149

On into Eternity …. What will it be like?? How glorious will it be?? What will the believer be doing??
A NEW Heaven and Earth Revelation 21:1
A NEW Jerusalem Revelation 21:2-27
These appear to be for God’s people, the Jew.
But what about the Believers?
The ones who have trusted the Lord Jesus as their Savior, the Church, during the age of Grace?
As the Scripture says …
Isaiah 64:4 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
The Apostle Paul also reminds the believer …
1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
No One can even imagine; it’s more than our minds can conceive. BUT it will be beyond GLORIOUS!
Remember, there’s a whole universe out there!!!

Like Psalm 2 this Psalm is prophetic in nature.
1 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.
7 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
Vs 1 God the Father speaks the God the Son (the Lord Jesus) and it being fulfilled even as you read this.
Vs 2-3 Fulfilled during the Millennium.
Vs 4 Melchizedek first appears to Abram (Genesis 14) And then is referred to by Paul (Hebrews 7:1-3)
Vs 5-7 The Great White Throne Judgement
→ return to Prophecy in the Psalm
Sin entered into the world thru Adam and has passed to all mankind. We are born in sin, separated from God. And if we die in that state, we will spend all eternity separated from God.
1 Timothy 2:13-14 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Revelation 20:12-15 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell 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. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

The Lord Jesus said: John 14:2-3 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
The Lord Jesus will return to set up a Jewish Kingdom on Earth.
But FIRST THE RAPTURE – The Apostle Paul wrote:
1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
2 Thessalonians 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
Then the physical return as promised when He left:
ACTS 1:11 which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

The events going on here in America or even around the world should not surprise anyone who believes the Bible. Look at what Paul wrote to Timothy:
2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
Last Days began when Christ ascended into Heaven and will continue until the Tribulation begins. Matthew 24:21
He goes on to explain to Timothy (and us) just how bad it is going to get:
2 Timothy 3:2-7 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
And even though things look bad now, Paul warns it will continue to get worst.
2 Timothy 3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
Our prayers should always include the prayer in
Revelation 22:20 … Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
