Millenial Kingdom of God -- What Will It Be Like?1. Vegetarian at Last, Just Like at First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3) "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) 2. Springtime Forever at Last, Just like at First & No Inclined Orbit of 23.5 Degrees At Last, Just Like At First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3) "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5)"Spring was forever ... earth, unplowed, brought forth rich grain" (Ovid Metam. 1:108) from pole to pole. 3. One language at Last, Just Like at First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3) "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) The earth is headed for a 360-day year again! Daniel 7:25 speaks about the last part of the tribulation with the Antichrist in power as lasting three-and-one-half years. The book of Revelation 11:2 and 13:5 describes the same period of time as being 42 months. Revelation 11:3 and 12:6 tells us that it is 1,260 days. Therefore 1,260 days divided by 42 months = 30 days per month and 42 months of 30 days per month = 3 1/2 years exactly of 360 days per year. To achieve a 30 day month the earth's orbit around the sun must be speeded up so a year would = 360 days. "And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elects (chosen ones) sake those days will be shortened." (Matthew 24:22) "But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be." (Matthew 24:37). Our Calendar of 365.2422 days per year x 3.5 years = 1278.3477 days. Revelation's Calendar of 360 days per year x 3.5 years = 1260. This time period of 3.5 years would be shortened by 18.3477 days. According to the Bible (Gen. 5:23-24; Heb. 11:5) Enoch did not die, but was taken or raptured by God when he was in his 365th year. We believe this is a type of the rapture that will occur of those who "walk with God" in the end-time during a 365-day age. In other words, just before a destruction of the world, "as in the days of Noah", there was and is a 365-day age of both Enoch and modern man. After the rapture, we then revert to Noah's perfect 360-day age which is also mentioned in the book of Revelation. 5. Long Lifespans At Last, Just Like at First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3); "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) "And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died" (Gen. 5:5). But for the past 6000 years, "men of blood and treachery shall not live out half their days" (Ps. 55:23). Even Jacob said, "Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they do not attain to the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojourning" (Gen. 47:9). "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). "There shall be no more in it an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days; for the child shall die an hundred years old, but the sinner, being an hundred years old, shall be accursed ... for like the DAYS OF A TREE are the days of my people, and mine elect shall LONG enjoy the work of their hands" (Isa. 65:20-22). 6. God's Laws, Sabbath, and Festivals Will Be Obeyed At Last, Just Like At First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3)."I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) Originally, God "rested on the seventh day from all his work" (Gen. 2:2) as an example to Adam and Eve since God "doesn't faint. He isn't weary" (Isa. 40:28). For the past 6000 years, men "have violated my law (Heb. "torah"), and have profaned mine holy things; they have put no difference between the holy and the profane, neither have they shown difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hidden their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them" (Ez.22:26). "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). Starting in the Millenium, God's laws will be kept forever and ever (Ps. 119:44, 160). The Law shall go forth from Zion (Micah 4:2; Isa. 2:3) . All flesh shall worship God from one Sabbath to another (Isa. 66:23). All nations shall keep the Feast of Tabernacles (Zech. 14:16-19). 7. Saints Glorified At Last, Just As Adam & Eve Were Probably Covered in A Garment of Light At First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) In Scripture, "garments" symbolize both righteous and evil works: "His garment was white as snow" (Dan. 7:9). "Their webs will not become garments, Nor will they cover themselves with their works; Their works are works of iniquity, And the act of violence is in their hands" (Isa. 59:6 ) "He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels" (Isa. 61:10) (Adam and Even were clothed originally in these white robes of righteousness.) "Then shall the righterous shine forth as the sun" (Matt. 13:43). Bring again people of Israel (Amos 9:14-15) Put a new spirit within you (Ez. 11:17-20). Be exalted above the Gentiles (Isa. 61:4-6). We shall be joint-heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17). The Kingdom shall be given to the saints of the Most High (Dan. 7:18,22,27). We shall also appear with Him in glory (Col. 3:4). We will have power and sit with Him on His throne (Rev. 2:26; 3:21). As kings and priests, we shall reign on earth (Rev. 1:6; 5:10). We shall reign with Him a thousand years (Rev. 20:6). "The king's daughter is all glorious within; her clothing is of wrought gold" (Ps. 45:13). 8. Wicked People Will Be Excluded From the Kingdom at Last, Just Like At First When Adam & Eve Were Originally Righteous By Themselves in the Garden of Eden; Then Driven From the Eden When They Sinned (Gen. 3:24) -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom (1 Cor. 15:50). "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). The unrepentant sinners shall not inherit the kingdom (Rev. 21:8, 27; 22:15). "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters (X-mas, Easter, Halloween), nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind (homosexuals), nor thieves (non-tithers), nor covetous (pornography if woman is married), nor drunkards (nor high on drugs), nor revilers, nor extortioners (interest on loan), shall inherit the kingdom of God" (1 Cor. 6:9-10). "Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these: adultery, fornication, uncleanness (pork-eaters; no niddah bathing), lasciviousness (being sexy), idolatry, sorcery (drugs), hatred, strife, jealousy, wrath, factions, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders (abortion), drunkenness, revelings ... they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God" (Gal. 5:19-21). 9. No Sickness or Pain At Last, Just Like at First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) 10. No War At Last, Just Like at First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5). But There Will Be A War At His Return: First War:He will smite the nations and rule them with a rod of iron (Ps. 2:8-9; Rev. 19:15). He will smite the earth with the rod of His mouth (Isa. 11:4; Job 4:9). The Stone [Christ] will smite and replace the image (Dan. 2:34-45). He shall fight against those nations (Zech. 14:3-5). In flaming fire He will take vengeance on the disobedient (2 Th. 1:7-10). Christ will destroy the wicked with His brightness (2 Th. 2:8). The Lamb shall overcome those who make war with Him (Rev. 17:13-14). Then Peace: There will be an abundance of peace forever (Ps. 72:3,7). Israel will no longer be a prey to the heathen (Ez. 34:28). “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 pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation. Neither shall they learn war anymore” (Isa. 2:2-4). No end to the increase of His government (Isa. 9:7). The work of righteousness shall be peace forever (Isa. 32:17). Men shall learn war no more (Micah 4:3). He shall cut off war and speak peace unto the heathen (Zech, 9:10). "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). 11. The Nature of Animals Changed At Last, Just Like At First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) A little child shall lead formerly fierce animals (Isa. 11:6-9). The wolf and the lamb shall feed together (Isa. 65:25). God will make covenant with the wild beasts of the field (Hos. 2:18). Christ will establish a covenant of peace with all beasts (Ez. 34:25). "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). 12. The Fertility of Earth Will Be Restored At Last, Just Like At First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) There shall be showers of blessing (Ez. 34:26). There shall be bountiful harvests (Ez. 34:27). The desert shall blossom as the rose (Isa. 35:1-7). The wilderness shall be as a pool of water (Isa. 41:18-19). “For the lord ... will comfort all her waste places; and He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the lord" (Isa. 51:3). Peace, singing, abound; no more thorns or thistles (Isa. 55:12-13). Desolate lands rebuilt; earth to become a Garden of Eden (Ez. 36:33-35). The plowman will overtake the reaper (Amos 9:13-14). There will be a restitution of all things (Acts 3:20-21). The creature shall be delivered from bondage (Rom. 8:19-22) "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). 13. The Whole Earth to be Filled With the Glorious Knowledge of the Lord Just Like At First, Just Like on a Weekly Sabbath Day -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3): "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) The whole earth shall be filled with His glory (Ps. 72:19). Earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord (Isa. 11:9). The earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea (Hab. 2:14) Satan and his influences shall be put away (Rev. 20:1-3) Jerusalem will be the throne of the Lord (Jer. 3:17). "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together ... waiting" (Rom. 8:22-23). 14. The Temple Will Be Rebuilt at Last, Just Like at First -- "Very Good" (Gen. 1:31) At the Restitution of All Things (Acts 3:21) -- "No More Curse" (Rev. 22:3). "I make all things new" (Rev. 21:5) The temple described in detail (Ez. 40-48). Animal sacrifices temporarily reinstated (Ez. 40:42-43; 44:11).
