@@@^“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Philippians 10:2
@@@^Also: “ . . . the Lord said in His heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.” Gen. 8:21. And supplementing this commitment, He promises: “This is the token of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I do set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and @9the waters shall no more become a flood@7 to destroy all flesh. And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
Philippians 11:3
@@@^Plainly stating that the cities are to be broken down “at the presence of the Lord, and by His fierce anger” (Jer. 4:23-26), and not by a flood or by the power of the nations, the Bible tightly closes the door to any attempt to construe this prophecy in such a way as to make possible its fulfillment at a time other than that of the Lord’s appearing. Then He “Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first,” also “that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming.” 1 Thess. 4:16; 2 Thess. 2:8.
Philippians 12:1
@@@^Since, moreover, the seven last plagues (Rev. 16) are, as is widely understood, to fall upon the impenitent after the close of probation and just before the appearing of the Lord, and since the gathering of God’s people is to precede the plagues (for the voice from heaven said, “Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues” — Rev. 18:4), necessarily, therefore, just before the plagues are poured out, and before Christ appears the second time, all the living righteous will, for their protection, be separated from sin and sinners, lest they also be consumed.
Philippians 12:2
@@@^Following the pouring out of the seventh plague, “the cities of the nations fell,” says The Revelation, “and every island fled away and the mountains were not found” (Rev. 16:19 20), showing again that at the appearing of Christ the earth shall be made void and without form; that those who will live and reign with Him shall have had to be saved and sheltered before His appearing; and that thereafter there shall be no more probation. Then will arise the dead in Christ: “For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.” 1 Thess. 4:16, 17.
Philippians 13:3
@@@^Of those who shall perish at the appearance of the Lord, Isaiah says: “ . . . they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.” Isa. 24:22. Imprisoned “many days,” these wicked ones manifestly are they who live “not again until the thousand years” (the “many days”) are “finished” (Rev. 20:5), when they shall be “visited” — called forth from their graves — only to receive, after continuing a short space, the second death, caused by “fire” coming “down from God out of heaven.” (See Revelation 20:9, 14.)
Philippians 16:1
@@@^“They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea.” Isa. 24:14. “Wherefore,” admonishes the prophet in view of this prospect, “glorify ye the Lord in the fires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel in the isles of the sea.” Isa. 24:15.
Philippians 17:2
@@@^Thus we see plainly that the redeemed from the church — the servants of God (the first fruits, or first-born — the Biblical term for the priesthood or the ministry) — stand firmly during the shaking “in the midst of the land,” with the result that they carry the truth to all nations during the “shaking” in the world, thereby taking salvation to many. These two classes of the living are necessarily, therefore, the only redeemed who are left after the shaking. They are spared, “delivered,” from the destruction, because their names are “found written in the book.” Dan. 12:1. And that they are not “left” on the earth while it lies in a state all broken, desolate, and void, but rather are “left” from the destruction, Isaiah, himself, makes plain when he says “the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men @9left@7” Isa. 24:6. These words do not even imply that the redeemed are left on the earth during the time of its desolation, but are “left,” spared, from the destruction.
Philippians 18:1
@@@^Consolidating the facts before us, we find that the millennium is ushered in by a six-fold series of events occurring in the order in which they are named: (1) God’s destroying the hypocrites in the church; (2) calling His Own out of the nations, and then bringing them into the purified church — the Kingdom; (3) closing probation; (4) destroying the wicked; (5) resurrecting the righteous dead and translating the righteous living; (6) and finally, making void the earth.
Philippians 20:1
@@@^“And He that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He said unto me Write: for these words are true and faithful. And He said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Rev. 21:1-8.
Philippians 21:2
@@@^In heaven the redeemed shall reign with Christ only a thousand years, whereas on earth He shall reign with them @9forever@7 and @9ever@7: for “the heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the earth hath He given to the children of men.” Ps. 115:16. “For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God Himself that formed the earth and made it; He hath established it, He created it not in vain, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord; and there is none else.” Isa. 45: 18.
Philippians 22:3
@@@^In the beginning, “the Lord God had not,” let us remember, “caused it to rain upon the earth” (Gen. 2:5), and water was “above the firmament” as well as “under the firmament”; and the firmament, He called “Heaven.” Gen. 1:7, 8. These divided waters could not be the water in the clouds, which now serves to water the earth, for the upper waters were not in the midst of the firmament, as are the clouds, but above it. So just as the earth was surrounded by the firmament, so also was the firmament surrounded by the water. The earth was, in other words, twice enveloped, as shown in the illustration, — first by the firmament; then by the water.
Philippians 25:1
@@@^The earth, now being without its heat-equalizing system, is affected with intense heat whenever the sun is in such a position as to send its rays through the least thickness of atmosphere as is the case at noonday, when the sun shines straight down instead of on a slant; and with even intenser heat whenever there is a density of atmosphere, such as is caused by humidity and low altitude; whereas conditions opposite to these, bring an opposite extreme. The fluctuating, uncomfortable atmospheric extremes brought about by the flood, are just another of the results of the curses which followed man’s unbelief in divine warnings and reproofs, and his disobedience to God’s commandments.
Philippians 27:5
@@@^As a result of sin on earth, causing all creation to groan (Rom. 8:22), the whole solar family has suffered. The foregoing scriptures show that not only the earth, but also the heavens, have waxed old under the curse of sin; that sin is a contagious disease with far-reaching results; that “whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it” (1 Cor. 12:26); that God is to make an absolute riddance of sin and consequently that He will make void not only the earth, but also the entire solar system; and that while making the earth new, He will make new the solar system also!
Philippians 29:1
@@@^“God is jealous,” declares the prophet Nahum in his vision of the time of the end “and the Lord revengeth; the Lord revengeth, and is furious; the Lord will take vengeance on His adversaries, and He reserveth wrath for His enemies. The Lord is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the Lord hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet. He rebuketh the sea, and @9maketh it dry@7 and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth. The mountains quake at Him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at His presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein. Who can stand before His indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by Him. The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knoweth them that trust in Him. But with an overrunning flood He will make an utter end of the place thereof and darkness shall pursue His enemies. What do ye imagine against the Lord? He will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.” Nah. 1:2-9.
Philippians 30:4
@@@^Since along with our heaven and earth, therefore, our whole solar system is to pass away, not only the saints from earth, then, but with them also the sons of God from the whole system, shall live and reign with Christ in the Heaven of heavens for a thousand years! O what a privilege! What an opportunity! What a gathering that will be!
Philippians 31:4
@@@^“ . . . I saw . . . a white horse; and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True . . . He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God . . . And He hath on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” Rev. 19:11, 13, 16.
Philippians 32:2
@@@^The “angel standing in the sun . . . cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him that sat on the horse, and against His army.
Philippians 33:4
@@@^As The Revelation says that “they lived and reigned @9with@7 Christ a thousand years” (Rev. 20:4), Christ does not therefore, live with them on the earth, but rather they live with Him in “the place” which He prepared for them, and of which John says (after seeing “the first heaven and the first earth were passed away” and replaced with “new heaven and a new earth” — Rev. 21:1): “And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.” Rev. 21:2.
Philippians 34:3
@@@^If an earthly judge does not convict and condemn a criminal without benefit of trial by jury, certainly, then, the all-just God of Heaven will not. He will not pass final sentence upon the wicked, convicting them of sin and condemning them to die “the second” death (Rev. 20:14), until after He has given the saints (the jury) opportunity to witness for themselves the judgment of the wicked — the husbands, wives, children, relatives , friends, and acquaintances then missing from the mansions above — and to examine their records which show why they are not there, but instead are moldering in their graves below.
