Millennial Kingdom

The Return of Christ and The Restoration of Israel

The Return of Christ and The Restoration of Israel

It is an undisputed tenet of Christianity that Jesus will return, and when He does, He will fully usher in the Kingdom of God. The prophet Zechariah declared: “Therefore thus says the LORD: I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy; My house shall be built in it, says the LORD of hosts, And a surveyor’s line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem” (Zechariah 1:16). At the end of His earthly ministry, Jesus ascended to Heaven from the Mount of Olives. Two angels who stood there spoke to the disciples, saying, “This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven” (Acts 1:11). Jesus is returning to Jerusalem in the clouds with power and great glory. Every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him.

The Millennium and The New Heaven and Earth

The Millennium and The New Heaven and Earth

The return of Christ to establish His eternal Kingdom initiates an exciting time of restoration for much, but not all, of the earth. After the final battle of Armageddon, some places will never be inhabited again. We read, “It [Babylon] will never be inhabited, Nor will it be settled from generation to generation; Nor will the Arabian pitch tents there, Nor will the shepherds make their sheepfolds there” (Isaiah 13:20).

The Day of The Lord

The Day of The Lord

“The great day of the Lord is near; It is near and hastens quickly. The noise of the day of the Lord is bitter; There the mighty men shall cry out. That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of devastation and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness” (Zephaniah 1:14-15, NKJV).
