We are doing another examination of Revelation 20 and are about in the middle of this project of discovery with deep intent of the Spirit's leading. All the while destroying the veil of hypocrisy, superstition and mediocrity and other feloniousness of religions creation and exercises that surround Revelation's revealed story of Christ restored within the human race. All designed to keep and work a greater evil of a false perspective and mindset.
The Thousand Year Reign or the Millennial Kingdom: The Devil/Santan Defeated:
Revelation 20:7-10 "And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, and shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever." (KJV)
Revelation 20:7-10 "And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released from his prison and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. And they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them, and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever." (ESV)
Revelation 20:7-10 "Their reign and priesthood will be fully established within the context of the vastness of this symbolic thousand year period. In sharp contrast then, only to emphasize the completed and utter defeat of the Satanas-system, he will be let loose very briefly, out of his prison. (From the Abyss, the "Bottomless Pit-Underworld," where he was imprisoned when Jesus went there to free humanity. Jesus Christ came back with the keys, remember! Rev. 20:3) And his obvious strategy was to deceive the nations on a global scale including the four corners of the earth (as it was known and believed back then to be)by assembling Gog and Magog in war; Their number is as the sand of the sea. (Again, every traditional Jewish concept of judgment is here addressed, since Jewish eschatology viewed Gog and Magog (these figures are fragments of mans twisted fallen mental imagery) as enemies to be defeated by their Messiah, which will usher in the age of the Messiah. "Then Eldad and Modad [brothers of Moses] both prophesied together, and said, "In the very end of time Gog and Magog and their army shall come up against Jerusalem, and they shall fall by the hand of the King Messiah; They shall be slain by the flame of fire which shall proceed from under the Throne of glory, and afterwards all the dead of Israel shall be raised again to life, and shall enjoy the delights prepared for them from the beginning." Quote is from the Jewish Targum. See reference in Numbers 11:26 and Ezekiel 38:17.
There are numeral references to the same "once and for all war" in the heavens! It is however the same hour; The same event! Rev. 12:7, 16:13-14, 17:13-14, and 19:19. see the extended notes on Israel at the end of this chapter.) They will spread across the earth and attempt to neutralize the "Queen Bee Bride (Queen of Heaven)," of the Lamb by surrounding and besieging GOD's Saints in the beloved city. Then fire will pour out of heaven and consume them. (Again, the distorted mindset of santanas (satanic) accusation and judgments are made a meal of-yet another reference to the great supper-feast celebrating the New Blood Covenant and the conclusion of the old. The fire from the altar of the slain Lamb of GOD consumes every definition of Israel's and indeed, mankind's perceived enemies. See the extended note on the Lake of Fire, at the end of chapter 19.) The Devil, who led them (by a twisted mental mindset) astray will be hurled into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone where his puppet partners, the Beast and the False (religions influence) Prophet have already been confined to. Day and Night they will be the subject of GOD's touchstone for the ages of the ages - the very atmosphere of the entire universe will be thoroughly fumigated from any evidence of their (delusional mindset of 2Thessalonians 2, Rom. 1:21-25; Ps. 81:11-12, Is. 29:9-14) existence." (See notes on the Touchstone in Rev. 14:10; also on the Lake of Fire and Brimstone at the end of chapter 19.) (The Mirror, with editing.)
May our LORD reveal His great Truth within us all.
