Satan won't deceive people for

1000 years (20:1-3).

Revelation 20:1-3 (NAU)

1Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. 2And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; 3and he threw him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were completed; after these things he must be released for a short time.

423

When is

Satan

bound

(20:1-3)?

421

Amillennialists say

Satan is bound now

from preventing the

extension of the

church.

Is Satan bound now?

Used with permission

422

________

True, but this text is

not talking about

preventing the

spread of the gospel.

It says he will not

deceive nations.

Does Satan deceive nations now?

For who is powerful enough to

enter the house of a strong man

like Satan and plunder his goods?

Only someone even stronger—

someone who could tie him up and

then plunder his house

(Matt. 12:29)

18[Jesus told the seventy-two

disciples], "I saw Satan fall from

heaven like lightning! 19Look, I have

given you authority over all the

power of the enemy, and you can

walk among snakes and scorpions

and crush them. Nothing will injure

you" (Luke 10:17-18)

The time for judging this world has

come, when Satan, the ruler of this

world, will be cast out

(John 12:31).

In this way, [Christ] disarmed the

spiritual rulers and authorities. He

shamed them publicly by his victory

over them on the cross

(Col. 2:15).

Some say "No"

Media Deceivers of Satan

What does it mean for

Satan to be bound?

Why Be Watchful?

Satan is on the loose (1 Pet. 5:8)8Stay alert! Watch out for

your great enemy, the devil.

He prowls around like a

roaring lion, looking for

someone to devour.

9Stand firm against him, and

be strong in your faith.

Remember that your

Christian brothers and

sisters all over the world are

going through the same kind

of suffering you are.

Others are succeeding over Satan (1 Pet. 5:9)

422

Does Satan deceive nations now?

Satan, who is the god of this

world, has blinded the minds of

those who don't believe. They are

unable to see the glorious light of

the Good News. They don't

understand this message about

the glory of Christ, who is the

exact likeness of God (2 Cor. 4:4).

13These people are false apostles.

They are deceitful workers who

disguise themselves as apostles of

Christ. 14But I am not surprised!

Even Satan disguises himself as an

angel of light (2 Cor. 11:13-14).

You used to live in sin, just like

the rest of the world, obeying the

devil—the commander of the

powers in the unseen world. He is

the spirit at work in the hearts of

those who refuse to obey God.3All of us used to live that way…

(Eph. 2:2-3a).

Then they will come to their senses

and escape from the devil's trap.

For they have been held captive by

him to do whatever he wants

(2 Tim. 2:26).

"Yes" seems the obvious answer…

By the way, name a country

now that Satan is NOT

deceiving right now…

423

Binding of Satan

(20:2-3a NLT)


"He seized the

dragon… and bound

him for 1000 years.

He threw him into the

Abyss, and locked

and sealed it over

him to keep him from

deceiving the nations

anymore until the

1000 years were

ended…"

Revelation 20:4 (NAU)

4Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

424


5The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection. 6Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years.

Alford's Law

"If, in a passage where two resurrections

are mentioned… the first resurrection

may be understood to mean spiritual

rising with Christ, while the second

means literal rising from the grave;—

then there is an end of all significance in

language, and Scripture is wiped out as

a definite testimony to anything."

—Henry Alford, The Greek Testament (1861), 4:732

The First Resurrection

Reunion!


5The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection. 6Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years.

① Judge angels

"Don't you realize that someday we

believers will judge the world? And

since you are going to judge the

world, can't you decide even these

little things among yourselves? 3Don't you realize that we will judge

angels? So you should surely be

able to resolve ordinary disputes in

this life"

(1 Cor. 6:2-3 NLT)


① Judge angels

② Rule the earth

Believers will rule the earth

(5:10 NLT).

"And you have caused them to become a

Kingdom of priests for our God. And they will

reign on the earth."

Scripture has a dual kingdom-covenant emphasis. Israel's role from Abraham to Christ expands to include the Church (continuity) yet the Church

never replaces the nation as the "new Israel" (discontinuity). Israel will again enjoy world prominence after trusting in Christ at His second coming.

How should we understand this

1000-year period—spiritually or

literally (20:1-7)?

Does 1000 years mean 1000 years?

There is consistent figurative use of numbers elsewhere in Revelation (p. 995).

All of these are literal numbers :

• 7 churches (Rev. 2-3)

• 144,000 Jews (7:1)

• 200 million soldiers (9:16)

• 42 months (11:2)

• 1260 days (11:3)

• 75 lb. hailstones (16:21)

425

All of these are literal numbers :

• 7 churches (Rev. 2-3)

• 144,000 Jews (7:1)

• 200 million soldiers (9:16)

• 42 months (11:2)

• 1260 days (11:3)

• 75 lb. hailstones (16:21)

425


The context has figures such as a chain, Abyss, dragon, serpent, locked, sealed, & beast.

The Abyss is a literal place (Luke 8:1) where demons are chained (2 Pet. 2:4) but can be unlocked (Rev. 9:1-2), so why can't they be actually restrained there?

Also, the designations at the left are no parallel to understanding "1000 years" as none are numbers.

425


The entire book has a predominantly figurative tone as in multiples of a thousand in the book (5:11; 7:4-9; 9:16; 14:1; 21:16; p. 973).

Each example cited is literal: "Thousands upon thousands" (5:11), 144,000 (7:4-9; 14:1), 200 million troops (9:16), and 12,000 stadia borders of the new Jerusalem (21:16). None are figurative! Rounding numbers does not mean they are figurative.


The OT contains figurative use of "1000" (p. 995).

"With the LORD, a day is as a thousand years" (Ps. 90:4) has a symbolic use of the word "day" but makes no sense unless "thousand" is understood literally.

425


Jews and early Christians used "1000" years as a figure for the eternal blessings of the redeemed (pp. 1018-21).

In actuality, the 6000-year idea of rabbis and early Christians assumed a literal1000 years as a "Sabbath." It was the amillennial Augustine who taught that the "eighth" day signified eternity (Sermons on the Liturgical Seasons 259.2; City of God 20.7)

425


The first "came to life" is a "spiritual resurrection" (20:4) but the second is a physical one (20:5).

• Why see the same verb differently in same text?

• "Came to life" never denotes a "spiritual resurrection" in the Bible.

• "Resurrection" always denotes physical bodies.

• Believers are spiritually alive now, so no need!

425


The number "1000" is for the "fullness of time" and thus symbolizes an indefinite era as in Psalm 50:10 and 2 Peter 3:8.

Psalm 50:10 ("For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills") has nothing to do with time!

2 Peter 3:8 ("A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day") shows Beale reads it as a literal 1000 years!

Who will rule with Christ for 1000

years? Three groups (20:4):

1. The Church: "Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them."

2. Beheaded Martyrs: "And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and…"

3. Tribulation Believers: "those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand…"

Where do the saints rule (20:4)?

Amils often say in heaven

But Revelation says it is on earth

• "And you have caused them to become a

Kingdom of priests for our God. And they

will reign on the earth" (5:10).

• No change of location is noted from verse

3 (on earth) to verse 4, so we should

assume verses 4-6 also to be on earth.

428

When do the saints rule (20:4)?

Amils claim it is now

But Revelation says it is future

• "And you have caused them to become a

Kingdom of priests for our God. And they

will reign on the earth" (5:10).

• "…they will be priests of God and of Christ

and will reign with Him for a thousand

years" (20:6).

"When the thousand years come to an end, Satan will be let out of his prison.

8He will go out to deceive the nations—called Gog and Magog—in every corner

of the earth. He will gather them together for battle—a mighty army, as

numberless as sand along the seashore. 9And I saw them as they went up on the broad plain of the earth and surrounded
