(Theme Song) ? Jesus is worthy ?@ 00:00:01.30\00:00:11.53 ? oh yes, he's worthy ?@ ? worthy of all ? 00:00:11.53\00:00:19.80 (Music) So let's talk now 00:00:19.80\00:00:22.23 about the devil's vacation. 00:00:22.23\00:00:24.50 What is the devil's vacation all about? 00:00:24.50\00:00:26.23 Christ's second coming signals the beginning of 00:00:26.23\00:00:32.16 what we call the Millennium. 00:00:32.16\00:00:33.66 Everybody say millennium. 00:00:33.66\00:00:35.06 Or the 1,000-year period. 00:00:35.06\00:00:37.23 Because millennium means 1,000 years. 00:00:37.23\00:00:40.13 Now, let's be clear. 00:00:40.13\00:00:41.46 This resurrection which begins the Millennium, 00:00:41.46\00:00:44.46 is a resurrection of the righteous. 00:00:44.46\00:00:49.20 Go back to Revelation 20, let's look at the Word. 00:00:49.20\00:00:52.80 Revelation 20:5. 00:00:52.80\00:00:53.96 If you have it, let me hear you say Amen. 00:00:53.96\00:00:55.70 The Word says in Revelation 20:5, But the rest 00:00:55.70\00:00:59.03 of the what? Dead live not again until the 00:00:59.03\00:01:01.43 thousand years were what? 00:01:01.43\00:01:02.60 Finished. This is the first resurrection. 00:01:02.60\00:01:06.13 Verse 6: Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the what? 00:01:06.13\00:01:11.93 First resurrection. 00:01:11.93\00:01:13.36 On such the second death hath no what? Power, 00:01:13.36\00:01:16.76 but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, 00:01:16.76\00:01:22.00 and shall reign with him for erfdy? 00:01:22.00\00:01:22.70 how long, Now, as I read this text, 00:01:22.70\00:01:27.16 analytically I read it, I understand a few things. 00:01:27.16\00:01:30.36 Number one, the text says, "Blessed and holy is he that 00:01:30.36\00:01:33.83 hath part in the first resurrection," which 00:01:33.83\00:01:37.20 suggests to me there is more than one resurrection. 00:01:37.20\00:01:39.96 The text also says that it's not a good thing if there is a 00:01:39.96\00:01:44.83 second death. 00:01:44.83\00:01:47.13 Which then suggests to me there's more than one death. 00:01:47.13\00:01:51.30 We know fr>7 the text we just read that there are at least 00:01:51.30\00:01:55.20 two resurrections. 00:01:55.20\00:01:56.60 And we know from the text we have just read that there are 00:01:56.60\00:01:59.16 at least two deaths. 00:01:59.16\00:02:01.56 Now, we're clear, at Jesus' second coming 00:02:01.56\00:02:04.50 there is a resurrection. 00:02:04.50\00:02:06.06 The dead in Christ rise what? First . 00:02:06.06\00:02:09.56 The Bible is clear that the righteous dead, 00:02:09.56\00:02:12.33 the righteous living, who are both alive, 00:02:12.33\00:02:15.26 the Bible said that they shall live and reign with Christ 00:02:15.26\00:02:18.86 for how many years? 00:02:18.86\00:02:20.96 A thousand years. 00:02:20.96\00:02:21.76 Now go with me to the book of John. 00:02:21.76\00:02:23.03 What book did I say, everybody? 00:02:23.03\00:02:24.46 Go with me to the book of John, and we're going 00:02:24.46\00:02:25.90 to John, chapter 5. 00:02:25.90\00:02:27.56 Now, remember, I said the text in Revelation points to the 00:02:27.56\00:02:31.00 fact that there must be two resurrections. 00:02:31.00\00:02:34.33 John, chapter 5, and we're going to verses 28 and 29. 00:02:34.33\00:02:41.36 John 5:28-29. 00:02:41.36\00:02:46.43 The Word of God says, Jesus himself speaking, 00:02:46.43\00:02:50.96 Marvel not at this. 00:02:50.96\00:02:53.40 For the hour is what? 00:02:53.40\00:02:55.03 Coming, in which all that are in the grave shall 00:02:55.03\00:02:58.20 hear his what? 00:02:58.20\00:03:00.56 Now stop right there. 00:03:00.56\00:03:02.20 That lets me know that Satan does not have 00:03:02.20\00:03:04.16 resurrection power. 00:03:04.16\00:03:05.06 Because the Bible says the day is coming that all that are in 00:03:05.06\00:03:08.63 the grave shall hear the voice of Jesus. 00:03:08.63\00:03:10.93 Are you hearing what I'm saying, everybody? 00:03:10.93\00:03:12.46 Verse 29, and shall come forth, they that have done 00:03:12.46\00:03:16.03 good, unto the resurrection of what? 00:03:16.03\00:03:18.06 Life, and they that have done evil unto the resurrection 00:03:18.06\00:03:22.03 of what, everybody? 00:03:22.03\00:03:23.16 Damnation. 00:03:23.16\00:03:24.33 Now, if there are going to be two resurrections, and the 00:03:24.33\00:03:26.23 Bible says in Revelation 20, blessed and holy is he that 00:03:26.23\00:03:29.23 hath part in the first resurrection, being a part of 00:03:29.23\00:03:31.60 the first resurrection is a good thing, because at 00:03:31.60\00:03:34.96 Jesus' second coming, which is the first 00:03:34.96\00:03:36.40 resurrection, the Bible says that the dead in Christ 00:03:36.40\00:03:39.50 shall rise first. 00:03:39.50\00:03:41.76 So if Big Mama doesn't rise first, that's a problem. 00:03:41.76\00:03:49.33 Are you hearing what I'm saying today? 00:03:49.33\00:03:52.10 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in 00:03:52.10\00:03:53.63 the first resurrection. 00:03:53.63\00:03:54.33 So, Pastor, what are we saying? 00:03:54.33\00:03:55.70 Go back to Revelation 20. 00:03:55.70\00:03:56.90 Pastor Byrd, what are we saying? 00:03:56.90\00:03:58.03 Go back to Revelation 20, let's see what the 00:03:58.03\00:04:00.30 Word of God says. 00:04:00.30\00:04:01.03 Understand, the resurrection of the righteous. 00:04:01.03\00:04:07.80 The resurrection of the what, everybody? 00:04:07.80\00:04:09.66 Righteous, which happens at the second coming. 00:04:09.66\00:04:11.73 It happens at the what time? 00:04:11.73\00:04:13.03 The resurrection of the righteous at the second coming 00:04:13.03\00:04:16.40 of Jesus begins the 1,000-year period we call the Millennium. 00:04:16.40\00:04:23.06 Then we recognize that the resurrection of the wicked, 00:04:23.06\00:04:26.76 because the Bible says in Revelation 20:5, the rest of 00:04:26.76\00:04:31.00 the dead live not again until the thousand years were what? 00:04:31.00\00:04:33.86 Finished. 00:04:33.86\00:04:35.33 At the end of the 1,000 years, there's going to be another 00:04:35.33\00:04:40.86 resurrection. 00:04:40.86\00:04:41.93 It will be the resurrection of the wicked, because John 5 00:04:41.93\00:04:45.40 already told us that there are two resurrections: a good one 00:04:45.40\00:04:48.86 and a bad one. 00:04:48.86\00:04:50.80 One to eternal life, one to eternal damnation. 00:04:50.80\00:04:54.63 At the second coming of Jesus there is the resurrection 00:04:54.63\00:04:59.70 of the righteous. 00:04:59.70\00:05:00.86 Then we have 1,000 years. 00:05:00.86\00:05:03.73 At the end of the 1,000 years, there's another resurrection, 00:05:03.73\00:05:06.00 and it's the resurrection of the wicked. 00:05:06.00\00:05:10.46 So we have resurrection of righteous, 1,000 years, and 00:05:10.46\00:05:15.30 then the resurrection of the wicked. 00:05:15.30\00:05:17.93 Pastor Byrd, what does the Bible say? 00:05:17.93\00:05:21.80 You're always saying, know what you believe, know why you 00:05:21.80\00:05:23.66 believe it, know where it's found. 00:05:23.66\00:05:25.36 We know what happens at the beginning of the 1,000 years, 00:05:25.36\00:05:27.76 we know what happens at the end of the 1,000 years. 00:05:27.76\00:05:30.13 Pastor Byrd, what happens during the 1,000 years? 00:05:30.13\00:05:35.70 Go with me to Jeremiah. 00:05:35.70\00:05:36.76 What book, everybody? 00:05:36.76\00:05:38.56 Let's get some Word in you. 00:05:38.56\00:05:40.00 Come on, say Amen. 00:05:40.00\00:05:41.36 RBLet's get some Word. 00:05:41.36\00:05:43.13 If it's in the Word, it deserves to be heard. 00:05:43.13\00:05:46.60 Jeremiah. 00:05:46.60\00:05:47.46 What book did I say, everybody? 00:05:47.46\00:05:49.63 And we're going to chapter 4. Jeremiah, 00:05:49.63\00:05:55.83 chapter 4, verse 23. 00:05:55.83\00:06:01.56 Jeremiah 4:23. 00:06:01.56\00:06:02.60 Take your Bibles with me, go to Jeremiah 4:23. 00:06:02.60\00:06:09.50 The prophet prophesied that what transpires during the 00:06:09.50\00:06:12.46 1,000 years. 00:06:12.46\00:06:13.76 The Bible says in Jeremiah 4:23, And I beheld the Earth, 00:06:13.76\00:06:19.46 and lo, it was without form and what, everybody? 00:06:19.46\00:06:22.70 Void. 00:06:22.70\00:06:23.63 And the heavens, and they had no what? 00:06:23.63\00:06:26.16 Life. 00:06:26.16\00:06:26.96 Go to verse 24. 00:06:26.96\00:06:28.10 I beheld the mountains, and lo, they trembled, and all the 00:06:28.10\00:06:30.66 hills moved lightly. 00:06:30.66\00:06:32.20 Verse 25. 00:06:32.20\00:06:33.06 I beheld, and lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the 00:06:33.06\00:06:36.56 heavens were fled. 00:06:36.56\00:06:37.43 Verse 26. 00:06:37.43\00:06:38.43 And I beheld, and lo, the fruitful place was a 00:06:38.43\00:06:41.60 wilderness and all the cities thereof were broken down at 00:06:41.60\00:06:44.90 the presence of the Lord and by the fierce what? 00:06:44.90\00:06:47.73 Anger. 00:06:47.73\00:06:48.76 Verse 28. 00:06:48.76\00:06:49.50 For this shall the Earth mourn, and the heavens shall 00:06:49.50\00:06:53.20 be black, because I hath spoken it, I have purposed it, 00:06:53.20\00:06:58.06 and will not repent, neither, God says, will I return back 00:06:58.06\00:07:01.70 from it. 00:07:01.70\00:07:04.60 So we recognize during the 1,000 years, during the 00:07:04.60\00:07:08.36 6'llennium, the Earth will be in total devastation. 00:07:08.36\00:07:12.60 There will be no people alive on the Earth. 00:07:12.60\00:07:17.26 When the individuals die at the brightness of Jesus' 00:07:17.26\00:07:20.60 second coming, understand, there will be no funeral home 00:07:20.60\00:07:24.56 or undertaker to get the body and bury them. 00:07:24.56\00:07:27.43 Because everybody, if you weren't resurrected as a 00:07:27.43\00:07:32.46 righteous individual, or caught up to meet the Lord in 00:07:32.46\00:07:34.43 the air, you died if you were alive at the brightness of 00:07:34.43\00:07:37.73 Jesus' coming. 00:07:37.73\00:07:38.60 The Earth is just a mess. 00:07:38.60\00:07:42.10 Okay, Pastor Byrd, we recognize that Satan is the 00:07:42.10\00:07:47.06 antithesis of Jesus. 00:07:47.06\00:07:49.16 Satan has been warring with Jesus forever. 00:07:49.16\00:07:51.73 You've made it clear that Jesus, because he loves us and 00:07:51.73\00:07:54.10 died to save us, he's coming back at his second coming to 00:07:54.10\00:07:57.43 get us. You've made it clear that the dead in Christ are 00:07:57.43\00:08:00.60 going to rise, the righteous living 00:08:00.60\00:08:03.43 are going to be caught up to meet the Lord in the air, the 00:08:03.43\00:08:05.66 wicked living are going to die at the brightness of his 00:08:05.66\00:08:07.60 coming, the wicked dead are going to remain dead. 00:08:07.60\00:08:09.93 That's what happens at the ond coming.R 00:08:09.93\00:08:11.20 N There's a first resurrection. 00:08:11.20\00:08:14.63 Then you've made it clear that there are 1,000 years, 00:08:14.63\00:08:16.46 and at the end of the 1,000 years there is a second 00:08:16.46\00:08:19.56 resurrection where the wicked dead are resurrected. 00:08:19.56\00:08:24.56 But what is Satan doing all this time? 00:08:24.56\00:08:28.13 Go back to Revelation 20. 00:08:28.13\00:08:30.90 What is Satan during this time? 00:08:30.90\00:08:33.86 Revelation 20:1. 00:08:33.86\00:08:35.76 Know what you believe, know why you believe it, know where 00:08:35.76\00:08:37.40 it's found. 00:08:37.40\00:08:38.83 Revelation 20:1-3. 00:08:38.83\00:08:43.50 The Word of God says to us, And I saw an angel come down 00:08:43.50\00:08:48.60 from where, everybody? 00:08:48.60\00:08:50.13 Having the key of the bottomless what? 00:08:50.13\00:08:52.03 Pit, and a great chain in his what? 00:08:52.03\00:08:54.86 Hand. 00:08:54.86\00:08:55.66 Verse 2, And he lay hold on the what? 00:08:55.66\00:08:57.93 Dragon, that old serpent which is the devil and Satan, and 00:08:57.93\00:09:01.03 bound him for how many years? 00:09:01.03\00:09:03.33 Verse 3, And cast him to the bottom of the pits. 00:09:03.33\00:09:07.46 Shut him up. 00:09:07.46\00:09:09.73 Thank you, Jesus. 00:09:09.73\00:09:10.66 Set a seal upon him. 00:09:10.66\00:09:11.53 I told you Satan is no match for Jesus. 00:09:11.53\00:09:13.46 That he should not deceive the nations anymore, 00:09:13.46\00:09:16.83 so that the thousand years should be fulfilled, 00:09:16.83\00:09:18.43 the Bible says, and after that, the Bible says, he 00:09:18.43\00:09:20.93 will be loosed for a little season. 00:09:20.93\00:09:23.43 Understand what's going on. 00:09:23.43\00:09:25.40 During the 1,000 years, Satan's going to be bound. 00:09:25.40\00:09:29.83 Satan, if you will, is going to be on vacation. 00:09:29.83\00:09:33.36 Well, Pastor, what do you mean, Satan's on vacation? 00:09:33.36\00:09:36.43 Satan will be on vacation because you know as you go on 00:09:36.43\00:09:39.46 vacation, you're not supposed to work 00:09:39.46\00:09:41.66 when you're on vacation. 00:09:41.66\00:09:44.73 Satan will be unable to do his primary work during the 00:09:44.73\00:09:46.40 thousand years. 00:09:46.40\00:09:47.13 He's on vacation because all the righteous are in heaven 00:09:47.13\00:09:51.20 and all the wicked are what? 00:09:51.20\00:09:52.76 Dead, here on this what? 00:09:52.76\00:09:54.03 Earth. 00:09:54.03\00:09:55.23 He will not be able to deceive anybody. 00:09:55.23\00:09:59.40 Satan will be on vacation. 00:09:59.40\00:10:01.70 Satan will not be able to do his primary work. 00:10:01.70\00:10:07.03 All right, so Pastor Byrd, at Jesus' second coming 00:10:07.03\00:10:11.86 there's a resurrection of the righteous. 00:10:11.86\00:10:16.73 During the 1,000 years, the Earth is in a total mess. 00:10:16.73\00:10:22.63 The righteous are in heaven, the wicked are dead here on 00:10:22.63\00:10:25.20 this Earth, Satan can deceive no one, he's on vacation 00:10:25.20\00:10:28.93 because there's no one to deceive. 00:10:28.93\00:10:31.66 But then at the end of the 1,000 years, the Bible is very 00:10:31.66\00:10:35.20 clear that there is a second resurrection of the wicked. 00:10:35.20\00:10:40.13 Now, Pastor Byrd, during the 1,000 years we know what Satan 00:10:40.13\00:10:43.70 is doing, but what are the righteous doing in heaven? 00:10:43.70\00:10:47.30 Go to verse 4 of Revelation 20. 00:10:47.30\00:10:51.00 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment 00:10:51.00\00:10:55.20 was given to them. 00:10:55.20\00:10:56.80 And I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the 00:10:56.80\00:10:58.96 witness of Jesus and for the Word of God, and which had not 00:10:58.96\00:11:02.73 worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had 00:11:02.73\00:11:05.80 received his mark upon their foreheads or in their hands, 00:11:05.80\00:11:07.26 and they lived and reigned with Christ for one thousand 00:11:07.26\00:11:12.43 years. 00:11:12.43\00:11:13.66 Which means from this text, the righteous will be in 00:11:13.66\00:11:16.40 heaven, thank you, Jesus, reigning with Jesus. 00:11:16.40\00:11:18.70 But we also see that judgment was given unto them in heaven. 00:11:18.70\00:11:23.16 Let's read a little further. 00:11:23.16\00:11:23.93 Go to verse 12. 00:11:23.93\00:11:25.66 The Word of God says in Revelation 20:12, And I saw 00:11:25.66\00:11:29.20 the dead, small and great, stand before God and the books 00:11:29.20\00:11:35.36 were what? 00:11:35.36\00:11:36.46 Opened. 00:11:36.46\00:11:38.30 And another book was what? 00:11:38.30\00:11:39.30 Opened, which is the book of life, 00:11:39.30\00:11:41.00 and the dead were judged out of those things which were 00:11:41.00\00:11:43.40 written in the books according to their what, everybody? 00:11:43.40\00:11:45.90 Works. 00:11:45.90\00:11:46.73 Verse 13, And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and 00:11:46.73\00:11:51.33 death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them, 00:11:51.33\00:11:54.73 and they were judged, every man according to their what? 00:11:54.73\00:11:59.13 Works. 00:11:59.13\00:12:02.13 The righteous during the 1,000 years will be participating in 00:12:02.13\00:12:07.40 judgment. 00:12:07.40\00:12:09.43 The righteous will be able to look over the books and see 00:12:09.43\00:12:12.46 who's been naughty and who's been nice. 00:12:12.46\00:12:16.73 The righteous will be in heaven reigning for Jesus 00:12:16.73\00:12:19.46 Christ, and they will look over the books, and this is 00:12:19.46\00:12:23.03 for the benefit of the righteous. 00:12:23.03\00:12:26.33 Why is this for the benefit of the righteous? 00:12:26.33\00:12:27.73 This is for the benefit of the righteous because, remember, 00:12:27.73\00:12:29.80 Satan's claim has been that God is not fair, that God is 00:12:29.80\00:12:33.03 unjust, that God is a tyrant. 00:12:33.03\00:12:37.90 But when the righteous participate in the millennial 00:12:37.90\00:12:40.60 judgment, they will be able to look over the books and see 00:12:40.60\00:12:43.63 why everybody got their just reward, and see how many times 00:12:43.63\00:12:48.33 chance after chance after chance after chance that God 00:12:48.33\00:12:51.93 was trying to save his people. 00:12:51.93\00:12:53.46 Second coming of Jesus. 00:12:53.46\00:12:59.16 First resurrection. 00:12:59.16\00:13:02.83 The dead in Christ rise what? 00:13:02.83\00:13:04.13 First. 00:13:04.13\00:13:05.60 The righteous living are caught up to meet the Lord in 00:13:05.60\00:13:08.90 the what? 00:13:08.90\00:13:09.83 Air. 00:13:09.83\00:13:10.90 The wicked living die at the brightness of his what? 00:13:10.90\00:13:12.80 Coming. 00:13:12.80\00:13:14.30 The wicked dead remain what? 00:13:14.30\00:13:15.50 Dead. 00:13:15.50\00:13:16.80 They remain dead for how many years, everybody? 00:13:16.80\00:13:18.86 A thousand years. 00:13:18.86\00:13:20.23 During the 1,000 years the Earth is a mess. 00:13:20.23\00:13:24.66 Satan is on vacation. 00:13:24.66\00:13:26.80 Satan can deceive no one because everyone on Earth is 00:13:26.80\00:13:29.86 what? 00:13:29.86\00:13:30.70 Dead. 00:13:30.70\00:13:31.80 where? 00:13:31.80\00:13:33.90 Heaven. 00:13:33.90\00:13:35.00 Participating in what? 00:13:35.00\00:13:35.96 Judgment. 00:13:35.96\00:13:37.96 At the end of the 1,000 years, the Bible speaks of a second 00:13:37.96\00:13:41.60 resurrection, and the Bible says that it's at that 00:13:41.60\00:13:45.13 resurrection that the wicked will be resurrected. 00:13:45.13\00:13:49.13 Well, Pastor, how do we know that? 00:13:49.13\00:13:50.80 Go back to Revelation 20:5. 00:13:50.80\00:13:52.70 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand 00:13:52.70\00:13:56.80 years were what? 00:13:56.80\00:13:58.03 Finished. 00:13:58.03\00:13:58.96 This is the first resurrection. 00:13:58.96\00:14:00.23 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first 00:14:00.23\00:14:02.33 resurrection; on such the second death hath no what? 00:14:02.33\00:14:06.86 Power. 00:14:06.86\00:14:09.70 Go to Revelation 21, verse 2. 00:14:09.70\00:14:12.76 RBJohn says, talking about what takes place at the end of the 00:14:12.76\00:14:16.23 1,000 years, John Ns, "And I, John, saw 00:14:16.23\00:14:21.70 New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, 00:14:21.70\00:14:27.36 prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 00:14:27.36\00:14:30.46 And I heard a great voice out of heaven, verse 3, saying, 00:14:30.46\00:14:32.66 behold the tabernacle of God is with men. 00:14:32.66\00:14:34.73 And he will dwell with them and they shall be his people. 00:14:34.73\00:14:37.33 And God himself shall be with them and be their what, 00:14:37.33\00:14:41.93 everybody? 00:14:41.93\00:14:42.70 God. 00:14:42.70\00:14:43.26 Then verse 4, I get happy about that, And God shall wipe 00:14:43.26\00:14:46.90 away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no 00:14:46.90\00:14:51.00 more death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be 00:14:51.00\00:14:54.33 any more pain, for the former things are what, everybody? 00:14:54.33\00:14:57.80 Passed. 00:14:57.80\00:14:59.26 Verse 20 says, And he carried me away in the spirit to a 00:14:59.26\00:15:01.83 great and high mountain, and he showed me that great city, 00:15:01.83\00:15:05.86 the holy Jerusalem, descending out of hKCven from whom, 00:15:05.86\00:15:12.76 everybody? 00:15:12.76\00:15:13.60 From God. 00:15:13.60\00:15:14.93 So we recognize, oh, this is getting good, man messed up. 00:15:14.93\00:15:18.20 So God had to send Jesus the first time. 00:15:18.20\00:15:21.76 The first time Jesus had to come to save his people. 00:15:21.76\00:15:25.06 But even after Jesus saved the people he had to go and die on 00:15:25.06\00:15:28.43 the cross. 00:15:28.43\00:15:29.43 And understand, since Jesus' death man is still messing up. 00:15:29.43\00:15:34.26 But God is not willing that any should perish, but all 00:15:34.26\00:15:36.80 should come to repentance. 00:15:36.80\00:15:39.30 And so God says, one day I'm going to put an end 00:15:39.30\00:15:40.90 to this stuff. 00:15:40.90\00:15:42.40 I'm going to put an end to this madness, and at my second 00:15:42.40\00:15:45.36 coming, I'm going to get my people. 00:15:45.36\00:15:48.40 The dead in Christ are going to rise first. 00:15:48.40\00:15:50.96 We which are alive and remain will be caught up to meet the 00:15:50.96\00:15:53.23 Lord in the air. 00:15:53.23\00:15:54.13 The wicked living will die at the brightness of his coming. 00:15:54.13\00:15:56.73 The wicked dead will remain dead. 00:15:56.73\00:15:59.16 We recognize for a thousand years the Earth will be a 00:15:59.16\00:16:01.86 mess. 00:16:01.86\00:16:02.83 Satan will be on vacation. 00:16:02.83\00:16:04.26 He will be bound by a set of circumstances. 00:16:04.26\00:16:07.03 We understand the righteous will participate in judgment. 00:16:07.03\00:16:10.03 And then at the third coming, Jesus has already come to save 00:16:10.03\00:16:15.56 his people, Jesus has already come to get his people. 00:16:15.56\00:16:20.26 Jesus the third time, at the d of the 1,000 years, is 00:16:20.26\00:16:23.70 coming back with his people. 00:16:23.70\00:16:30.23 You all hear what I'm saying? 00:16:30.23\00:16:32.23 So that's what happens to the people of God. 00:16:32.23\00:16:33.70 Jesus is coming back the third time with his people. 00:16:33.70\00:16:36.86 First time, save his people. 00:16:36.86\00:16:38.46 Second time, coming to get his people. 00:16:38.46\00:16:41.56 Third time coming back with his people. 00:16:41.56\00:16:45.70 What happens to Satan after the thousand years are 00:16:45.70\00:16:49.06 finished? 00:16:49.06\00:16:49.66 Go to Revelation 20:7. 00:16:49.66\00:16:50.86 The Word of God says, "And when the thousand years are 00:16:50.86\00:16:55.40 expired, Satan shall be what? 00:16:55.40\00:16:59.56 Loosed out of his what, everybody? 00:16:59.56\00:17:01.63 Prison. 00:17:01.63\00:17:02.46 In other words, Satan's vacation is going to be over. 00:17:02.46\00:17:05.73 Satan will be loosed out of his prison at the end of the 00:17:05.73\00:17:09.56 1,000 years. 00:17:09.56\00:17:10.70 So at the end of the 1,000 years, we recognize, the Word 00:17:10.70\00:17:13.20 of God is very clear, that the wicked dead are going to be 00:17:13.20\00:17:17.16 resurrected. 00:17:17.16\00:17:18.20 We also recognize that the New Jerusalem, Jesus Christ and 00:17:18.20\00:17:21.16 his people are going to be coming back to this Earth. 00:17:21.16\00:17:24.50 But we also recognize that Satan is going to be loosed 00:17:24.50\00:17:28.06 for just a little while. 00:17:28.06\00:17:29.53 Has Satan had a change of heart? Go to verse 8 00:17:29.53\00:17:35.03 of Revelation 20. 00:17:35.03\00:17:36.03 Let's get some more Word. 00:17:36.03\00:17:36.76 Know what you believe, know why you believe it, know where 00:17:36.76\00:17:38.03 it's found. 00:17:38.03\00:17:38.70 And shall go out to do what, everybody? 00:17:38.70\00:17:40.36 Deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the 00:17:40.36\00:17:43.30 what, everybody? 00:17:43.30\00:17:44.16 Earth. 00:17:44.16\00:17:44.83 Gog and what? 00:17:44.83\00:17:45.70 Magog, together them together to what, everybody? 00:17:45.70\00:17:47.76 Battle, the number of whom is as the sand of the what? 00:17:47.76\00:17:50.66 Sea. 00:17:50.66\00:17:51.73 That means a whole lot of folk going to be wicked. 00:17:51.73\00:17:57.10 The sand of the sea. 00:17:57.10\00:17:59.10 Somebody say, well, Pastor, what you preach is not popular. 00:17:59.10\00:18:01.36 You've got to preach what thus saith the Lord, because 00:18:01.36\00:18:03.93 you can't be popular and prophetic at the same time. 00:18:03.93\00:18:07.23 You got to preach the unadulterated Word of God. 00:18:07.23\00:18:09.70 Know what you believe, why you believe it, where it's found. 00:18:09.70\00:18:11.16 What does the Word of God say? 00:18:11.16\00:18:12.93 The Word of God says that when the wicked dead are 00:18:12.93\00:18:15.70 resurrected, Satan is loosed out of his prison, Satan is 00:18:15.70\00:18:18.60 going to try to deceive one more time. 00:18:18.60\00:18:21.70 Well, Pastor, how could Satan deceive again? 00:18:21.70\00:18:24.46 I mean, all the righteous are in heaven, yes, the wicked are 00:18:24.46\00:18:27.43 alive, but what do you mean, Pastor Byrd, that he's going 00:18:27.43\00:18:30.46 to deceive again? 00:18:30.46\00:18:31.13 I can hear one of his greatest deceptions. 00:18:31.13\00:18:32.90 Well, not me hear, but I can think 00:18:32.90\00:18:36.73 one of his greatest deceptions. 00:18:36.73\00:18:39.73 I resurrected you. 00:18:39.73\00:18:44.20 I mean, just think about that. 00:18:44.20\00:18:45.26 Expand your mind. 00:18:45.26\00:18:47.70 Satan: I resurrected you. 00:18:47.70\00:18:49.96 Now, remember, they see no righteous. 00:18:49.96\00:18:52.50 They see no Jesus. 00:18:52.50\00:18:54.40 They are resurrected. 00:18:54.40\00:18:55.73 Satan is walking out of his prison, he's loose now, 00:18:55.73\00:18:58.23 vacation time is over. 00:18:58.23\00:18:59.93 Satan, I can imagine him saying, I resurrected you. 00:18:59.93\00:19:05.13 Let's go now to the four corners of the Earth. 00:19:05.13\00:19:08.53 We can overtake God. 00:19:08.53\00:19:10.80 We can overtake God in the person of Jesus Christ and the 00:19:10.80\00:19:14.16 righteous. 00:19:14.16\00:19:18.26 What happens when Satan and his followers go 00:19:18.26\00:19:20.76 to capture the holy city? 00:19:20.76\00:19:22.23 Verse 9.

00:23:27.96\00:23:35.16 Why would Jesus resurrect a @@ dead wicked person again at 00:23:35.16\00:23:40.73 the end of the 1,000 years, at the time of the third coming, 00:23:40.73\00:23:43.80 for them to only have to be destroyed by fire? 00:23:43.80\00:23:49.76 Let's expand our minds. 00:23:49.76\00:23:52.73 When Jesus comes back the third time, at the end of the 00:23:52.73\00:23:57.10 1,000 years, this will be the only time, and listen to me 00:23:57.10\00:24:01.50 carefully, get this word, this will be the only time in 00:24:01.50\00:24:05.43 Earth's history where everyone who has ever lived on 00:24:05.43\00:24:08.86 planet Earth, we will all be alive at the same time.@ @ 00:24:08.86\00:24:14.50 At the end of the 1,000 years, remember now, the righteous 00:24:14.50\00:24:17.40 are alive because they're descending out of heaven. 00:24:17.40\00:24:20.26 The wicked have been resurrected. 00:24:20.26\00:24:21.93 So everybody who has ever lived, Carlton Byrd, 00:24:21.93\00:24:26.43 Barak Obama, Adolf Hitler, Alexander the Great, 00:24:26.43\00:24:30.70 everyone who has ever lived, this is the only 00:24:30.70\00:24:33.60 time in Earth's history that we will all be alive at the 00:24:33.60\00:24:37.26 same time. 00:24:37.26\00:24:40.73 What is the significance of that?
