  3. Christ and the Saints • Rev 10:1 – the rainbowed angel • Rev 18:1 – Angel who lightens the earth with his glory. • Rev 21:2,10 - Bride

  4. The power of sin • “…who will bind the dragon or sin-power for a thousand years”. The Christadelphian : Volume 6. 2001, p.360

  5. The power of sin • The first part of the work is to restrain sin, apocalyptically styled binding the Dragon, the Old Serpent; who is designated also by the words diabolos and satanas; the former being rendered devil, and the latter left untranslated. The Christadelphian : Volume 10, 2001, p.485

  6. The power of sin • We see from these hints that diabolos, or ‘that having the power of death,’ appears in divers parts of Scripture in a sort of personal manifestation. The personality, however, is not that of a single individual; but the personification of a power in man, and in society antagonist to God and His people. . The Christadelphian : Volume 10. 1873. p.486.

  7. persecutor, fighter

  8. I Cor 15:54-56 SERPENT DEATH STING/BITE SIN

  9. Devil ‘Diabolo’ = to cut or throw across Diabolos says “thou shalt NOT surely die” God says “thou shalt surely die”

  10. Satan OPPOSITION

  11. " bound him a thousand years "

  12. Summary of rebellion Deceive March against God Surround the holy city Gathered for battle Travel the world against God Killed saints

  13. “Little season” II Cor 4:17 – “for our light affliction, which is but for a moment” Heb 2:10 - described as a “few days” I Pet 5:10 – “after you have suffered a while” I Pet 1:6 – heaviness for a season.

  14. Shared Authority • John 5:27 – Given Christ authority to execute judgment. • Rev 20:4 – judgment given to the saints. • Dan 7:22 – judgment given to the saints of the most high. • Psm 149:9 – execute judgment… honour of saints. • I Cor 6:2 – saints to judge the world.

  15. The rest of the dead… correct view The resurrection of the righteous who die in the 1000yrs The resurrection of the righteous MILLENNIUM

  16. The rest of the dead… wrong view The resurrection of the wicked over the last 7000 years. The resurrection of the righteous MILLENNIUM

  17. Parenthesis “…They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended). This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one that shares in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power…”

  18. The First Resurrection • Luk 20:36; Phil 3:11 – ‘The resurrection of the dead” • Luk 14:14 – “the resurrection of the just” • Jhn 5:29 – “the resurrection of life” • Heb 11:35 – “a better resurrection”

  19. First resurrection summary • Some partake of the life of the First resurrection at the beginning of the millennium and some at the end... (as the 2nd death is also meted at the beginning and end). • Both groups are “blessed and holy”. • Only those at the beginning reign for a 1000yrs.

  20. The first death • Gen 3:19 – “for dust thou art and unto dust thou shalt return” • Ecc 3:19-20 – “what happens to the beasts is the same…all go to one place”. • Psm 89:48 – “What man…shall not see death” • Rom 5:12 – “…and so death passed upon all men for that all have sinned” • I Cor 15:21-22 – “for since by man came death…for as in Adam all die” • Heb 9:27 – “it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” The 1st death is God’s condemnation

  21. Sinners • Lke 15:18-20, 24,32 – my son was dead but is alive • Jhn 5:21 – father raises up the (morally) dead • Eph 2:1-6 – dead in tresspasses & sins, dead in sins. • Col 2:13 – dead in sins • I Tim 5:6 – she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth Therefore all under the first death

  22. 2nd Death called… • Jhn 5:29 – “the resurrection of condemnation” • Dan 12:2-3 – “shame & everlasting contempt” • Matt 25:41-46 – everlasting punishment • Rev 20:14 – the lake of fire The 2nd Death is Christ’s condemnation

  23. The throne in Revelation • Rev 4:2 …a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. • Rev 4:9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne… • Rev 4:10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne… • Rev 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book … • Rev 19:4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.

  24. The throne in Revelation • It is the same throne in Dan 7 before whom the books were opened to judge the nations and from which proceeded the stream of fire that ignites the lake of fire. • It is the white throne and very glorious (Mt 25:31-32,41). • Set up at the same time as (Dan 2:35)

  25. Summary “first resurrection” = the only escape from the condemnation of mortality that God passed on all. “second death” = the condemnation of Christ, either at the commencement or at the end of the millennium. There is no 2nd resurrection

  26. Microcosm
