A Comment about Eschatology, by Victoria Koerber

If one can leave emotion behind, eschatology is simple!

1) Tribulation; It is now because John says so! Rev. 1:9 I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation. It is now until the end! 2) Rapture. It happens on his way down! 1 Thes.4:16-17 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven.....and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. Why are we being raised? Because the Earth will be destroyed!!! 3) The Millennial Rev.20. It is SYMBOLIC! A long period of time. It represents Christ reigning currently through His Church. It's SYMBOLIC! When Christ returns in his Glory, that's a wrap. It's over! Earth destroyed and Judgement! There is this age, and the age to come. No in-between! He returns once, not twice! It's SYMBOLIC! He is not going to hang out on the earth for a thousand years!!!!! When he returns, Satan will not be bound from deceiving the nations! There won't be any nations! And Satan will be cast into the lake of fire. Satan is bound from deceiving the nations NOW! that's it. He is still free to do everything else! Read Rev. 20! It says nothing about Christ descending. John sees an angel coming down, not Christ. The entire book of Revelation is SYMBOLIC! It's a picture book, not a puzzle book!
