The geographical land of Israel has been left desolate, by God, on purpose. Punishment for rejecting Christ. If only they had known the hour of their visitation.

Hi Amasuca, It sure does look like the millennial reign! It definitely speaks of a future that is different from what we have now. The prophets are interesting and complicated. It has helped me to know where they lived and what was happening to them at that time. But so many prophesies can be repeated, in a manner of speaking. The exodus will happen for us too. Jesus will take us out of the land of slavery to live in houses we did not build.

It's so nice to be chatting with people who obviously love Jesus and yearn to see him. The land is barren where I live.

Blessings to you!

So true! When Jesus returns he will reestablish his kingdom here on earth, and it will be a holy kingdom that has no end.

Hi Amasuca,

Well, actually, at Jesus second coming to collect us, his feet do not touch the earth. We rise up to meet him in the air along with the dead in Christ.

At that time, we ascend into heaven. For 1000 years, the sabbath millennium, we will have the opportunity to review the books. We will wonder why our wonderful Aunt Betty is not in heaven. We will read the books and say, "Ah. I understand." Righteous and true are your judgements , oh LORD."

And, we will wonder why that awful person made it to heaven. We will read the books, and say, "Ah. I understand. Righteous and true are your judgements, oh LORD."

At the end of the sabbath millennium, new Jerusalem will descend to the earth. The wicked dead will be awakened. They will receive their judgment at that time. And, we will understand, because we had 1000 years to read the books, that those condemned to die have chosen that path. God's reputation will be exonerated. For all those people who thought God was arbitrary and mean, they will see that God is LOVE.

Now is the time to come out of Babylon, my people.

Hi Hadassah, Great reply! It was comforting to read.

You know, I just read Micah 4 recently, and that looks a lot like the millennial reign.

Maybe take a look at that, and tell me what you think.

Amasuca;

Micah 4 is a prophecy of Jesus Christ (the Kingdom of God).

It has been happening to the called out now for 2000 years, ever since John came PREACHING: prepare ye the way; for the kingdom of God, is AT HAND.

Colossians 2:27 .... this MYSTERY .... Christ IN YOU ........

God Bless You

I don't think so. Read Micah 1-5 again. Looks like wars are still taking place!

"nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

4But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath spoken it.

5For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever."

These are people walking "every one in the name of his god". Not at all as you say. Better give it a second, third, and even a

fourth look before making that claim.
