Reading Time: 7 minutesQuestion 10067 Absolutely. God’s plan for Israel is not finished – it is ongoing and will reach its climax when Christ returns to establish His kingdom with Israel at the centre. Despite Israel’s current unbelief, God’s covenant promises remain valid, and Scripture is clear that Israel’s greatest days are still ahead. Understanding God’s continuing plan…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10096 The names Gog and Magog appear in two very different contexts in Scripture: the prophecy of Ezekiel 38-39 and the brief but dramatic reference in Revelation 20:8. Whether these refer to the same event, the same entities, or something else entirely has been debated by careful interpreters for centuries. The question deserves a…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10095 The Millennium is not the final chapter in God’s redemptive story. A thousand years of Christ’s righteous rule on earth, remarkable as that period will be, gives way to a concluding series of events that brings the present created order to its end and ushers in the eternal state. What happens at the…
Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 10131 The New Testament makes a remarkable promise to believers: they will reign with Christ. This is not metaphorical language for spiritual influence or a poetic way of describing the blessings of salvation. It is a concrete promise about the future role of the redeemed in the administration of Christ’s kingdom. Understanding what this…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10151 The New Testament teaches that every human being who has ever lived will be raised from the dead. This is not a general, undifferentiated event but a structured sequence involving two distinct resurrections separated by the millennial reign of Christ. The categories of “the just” and “the unjust” are not merely descriptive. They…
Reading Time: 6 minutesQuestion 10051 Amillennialism is the belief that there will be no literal thousand-year earthly reign of Jesus following His second coming. The “a-” prefix means “no” or “not,” so amillennialism means “no millennium” in the sense of a future earthly kingdom. Instead, amillennialists believe the “thousand years” in Revelation 20 symbolically represents the current church…
Reading Time: 6 minutesQuestion 10052 Postmillennialism is the belief that Jesus will return after (post-) the millennium. Unlike premillennialism, which sees the millennium as a future earthly reign following Christ’s return, postmillennialism teaches that the millennium is a golden age of Christian influence and prosperity that occurs before the second coming. During this period, the gospel gradually conquers…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10097 The phrase “first resurrection” appears only once in Scripture, in Revelation 20:5-6, yet it represents one of the most significant events in God’s prophetic programme. Understanding what the first resurrection is—and who participates in it—helps us grasp God’s plan for His people across the ages and gives believers tremendous hope for the future….
Reading Time: 6 minutesQuestion 10072 The “Day of the Lord” appears throughout Scripture as a sobering theme—a future time when God directly intervenes in human history to judge sin and establish His kingdom. It’s not a single 24-hour period but an extended time of divine action that encompasses both the tribulation period and Christ’s millennial reign. The Biblical…
Reading Time: 6 minutesQuestion 10048 The Second Coming of Jesus is the climactic event when He returns to earth in power and glory to defeat His enemies, judge the nations, and establish His millennial kingdom. Unlike the rapture, which is a secret, sudden catching away of believers, the Second Coming is public, visible to all, and marks the…
