This doesn’t seem to answer the question posed by the video’s title, namely, “Why is Satan Released...”. Great video- good content- I agree with the teaching. I do wish Dr. Brown would have addressed the question.
I've heard it said that he will be released for one final attempt to mislead. Example: Those that accepted Christ on their deathbed to keep from going to hell, yet are not truly devoted to him.
From God's perspective, He is demonstrating to humanity just how dark & deceitful the human heart truly is. During the Millennial Reign of Jesus, sinful people will live, procreate, and die -- just like we do right now. Sinful people will need to experience the new birth -- just like we do right now. People will be required to worship Jesus in Jerusalem -- but many still won't do it (Zech 14:17-18). Think about it: it really doesn't make sense to us that if right now -- that if Jesus were manifested right now, for real, in the flesh, sitting on a real Throne, over in Jerusalem, that people would NOT believe & trust Him?! Wait ... whuut?? YET, during the Millennium unconverted sinners will refuse His blessing and His offer of eternal life -- EVEN WITHOUT the Devil & his minions hanging around to influence thoughts & situations. #GodsPerspective

@@retrograd332 They say Satan IS bound so that he can't deceive the nations. In all other regards he is not bound. That doesn't make sense to me. But if that's what you believe I'll listen to your explanation
... and yet, @@fabiancortez2256, the Bible says that the Devil will be cast into the bottomless Pit, and shut up, with a seal set on him. That bottomless Pit doesn't sound like Earth, does it?
👑 This is what happened in the underworld when Jesus died and went down into Hades... 📖 1 Peter 3:19-20 (Canonical New Testament) "And he (Jesus) preached to those souls who were held in Sheol [hell, Hades, abyss, underworld, bottomless pit, Tartarus], These who from the first were not convinced in the days of Noah..." 📖 Acts of Pilate 5(21)-6(22) - Part II The Descent of Christ into Hell (Apocryphal New Testament) Greek Form. "While Satan and Hades were thus speaking to each other, there was a great voice like thunder, saying: Lift up your gates, O ye rulers; and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting gates; and the King of glory shall come in. When Hades heard, he said to Satan: Go forth, if thou art able, and withstand him. Satan therefore went forth to the outside. Then Hades says to his demons: Secure well and strongly the gates of brass and the bars of iron, and attend to my bolts, and stand in order, and see to everything; for if he come in here, woe will seize us. The forefathers having heard this, began all to revile him, saying: O all-devouring and insatiable! open, that the King of glory may come in. David the prophet says: Dost thou not know, O blind, that I when living in the world prophesied this saying: Lift up your gates, O ye rulers? Hesaias said: I, foreseeing this by the Holy Spirit, wrote: The dead shall rise up, and those in their tombs shall be raised, and those in the earth shall rejoice. And where, O death, is thy sting? where, O Hades, is thy victory? There came, then, again a voice saying: Lift up the gates. Hades, hearing the voice the second time, answered as if forsooth he did not know, and says: Who is this King of glory? The angels of the Lord say: The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. And immediately with these words the brazen gates were shattered, and the iron bars broken, and all the dead who had been bound came out of the prisons, and we with them. And the King of glory came in, in the form of a man, and all the dark places of Hades were lighted up. Immediately Hades cried out: We have been conquered: woe to us! But who art thou, that hast such power and might? and what art thou, who comest here without sin who art seen to be small and yet of great power, lowly and exalted, the slave and the master, the soldier and the king, who hast power over the dead and the living? Thou wast nailed on the cross, and placed in the tomb; and now thou art free, and hast destroyed all our power. Art thou then the Jesus about whom the chief satrap Satan told us, that through cross and death thou art to inherit the whole world? Then the King of glory seized the chief satrap Satan by the head, and delivered him to His angels, and said: With iron chains bind his hands and his feet, and his neck, and his mouth. Then He delivered him to Hades, and said: Take him, and keep him secure till my second appearing [Latin. First Version 6:22 - The King of glory, trampling on death by His majesty, and seizing Prince Satan, delivered him to the power of Hades | Latin. Second Version 8:24 - Hades being suddenly summoned, He commanded him, and said: Take this most wicked and impious one, and have him in thy keeping even to that day in which I shall command thee]..." 📌 Note: • Jesus: "I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive forevermore, Amen; and have the keys of Hades [hell, Sheol, abyss, underworld, bottomless pit, Tartarus] and of death..." Revelation 1:18 • John: "I saw a messenger [angel] coming down from the heaven, having the key to the pit of the deep [abyss, bottomless pit, Sheol, hell, Hades, underworld, Tartarus] and a great chain in his hand. And he seized the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and he threw him into the pit of the deep, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should lead the nations no more astray until the thousand years were ended. And after that he has to be released for a little while..." Revelation 20:1-3 📖 Acts of Pilate 7(23)-8(24) - Part II The Descent of Christ into Hell (Apocryphal New Testament) Greek Form. "And Hades receiving Satan, said to him: Beelzebul, heir of fire and punishment, enemy of the saints, through what necessity didst thou bring about that the King of glory should be crucified, so that he should come here and deprive us of our power? Turn and see that not one of the dead has been left in me, but all that thou hast gained through the tree of knowledge, all hast thou lost through the tree of the cross: and all thy joy has been turned into grief; and wishing to put to death the King of glory, thou hast put thyself to death. For, since I have received thee to keep thee safe, by experience shall thou learn how many evils I shall do unto thee. O arch-devil, the beginning of death, root of sin, end of all evil, what evil didst thou find in Jesus, that thou shouldst compass his destruction? how hast thou dared to do such evil? how hast thou busied thyself to bring down such a man into this darkness, through whom thou hast been deprived of all who have died from eternity? While Hades was thus discoursing to Satan, the King of glory stretched out His right hand, and took hold of our forefather Adam, and raised him. Then turning also to the rest, He said: Come all with me, as many as have died through the tree which he touched: for, behold, I again raise you all up through the tree of the cross. Thereupon He brought them all out, and our forefather Adam seemed to be filled with joy, and said: I thank Thy majesty, O Lord, that Thou hast brought me up out of the lowest Hades. Likewise also all the prophets and the saints said: We thank Thee, O Christ, Saviour of the world, that Thou hast brought our life up out of destruction. And after they had thus spoken, the Saviour blessed Adam with the sign of the cross on his forehead, and did this also to the patriarchs, and prophets, and martyrs, and forefathers; and He took them, and sprang up out of Hades. And while He was going, the holy fathers accompanying Him sang praises, saying: Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord: Alleluia; to Him be the glory of all the saints..." 📖 Matthew 27:51-53 (Canonical New Testament) "The earth shook, and the rocks were split open.

All this already happen we are after the 1000 years Satan is doing his thing now. But Jesus already died for us and open the gates of heaven again so you are all free from sin of the flesh.
Absolutely false. If the devil is bound up, how is this current earth full of so much evil and deception? And I haven’t seen Jesus here on earth for a 1000 years yet.
@@jonathanhicks3191 This is supposed to be "Satan's Little Season" where he is loosed to deceive the world again, but no one says WHY God would set him free to do this??
I really wish Dr. Brown would write a commentary on the Bible... or, at least, on the New Testament. A verse-by-verse commentary would be great, although I realize that would be a massive undertaking... so a chapter-by-chapter commentary would still be helpful.
given it took him 2 minutes to do this one, multiple that by 31,000 verses, gives you 62,000 minutes, which is 2588 days, which is 7 years. But I think 2 minutes for this verse is not considered a study, not a justifiable defence for his position. But then, maybe this is just an opinion.
The thousand year reign of Christ is when He returns at the second coming and resurrects the saints, destroys the wicked with the brightness of His coming and then goes back to heaven for the one thousand years. The millenlial reign is spent in heaven while satan is down here on earth in his prison waiting his sentence. The vindication of the character of God takes place while He opens the books in heaven and the saints "judge angels" and the lost. Basically confirming God's decision to destroy satan, his fallen counterparts and the wicked that have rejected Christ. All heaven descends after the millennium in the New Jerusalem, Christ resurrects the wicked, satan rallys them to take the City and fire comes down from God out of heaven and destroys sin and the wicked and then recreates the world brand new. Amazing Facts.org is a great site to visit to learn more on this subject. God bless.
But here’s what I don’t understand. If everyone has a glorified body after Jesus returns, then how can they rebel against him? It seems that after Jesus returns, death will be vanquished from the earth.
Collin Bolles When Jesus returns, all Christians will be given glorified bodies, and from what I understand, all nonbelievers will be vanquished or sent to Hell.
No flesh can enter heaven. Gods people will be given glorified bodies when we are caught up to be with Him. To be able to be in His presence our flesh cannot withstand His glory and power, after all, our flesh is full of sin. If we are to reside with Jesus in the new Jerusalem then I can imagine our bodies would not be flesh. The dead in Christ would certainly not rise in their flesh either but have new glorified bodies. Oh what a day that will be! Maranatha 😊✝️🙌💕
And that is why you must study the words of jesus about the sheep and goats and the 144000 sealed ones The most high God will resurrect and glorify his saints and judge the wicked who have recieved the mark of the beast but they're will be some people on earth that were not saints nor took the mark and the remanent of them that survived will have babies and populate the earth and since those who are worthy to attain the resurrection body cannot have sex and have already proved on this Earth that they love the Lord and have laid down their lives for him they will not be marrying and giving in marriage because they wont have fleshly bodies that can sin..only the ones who remain and are not part of the Antichrist Army yet aren't saints will repopulate and from them and their children God will repopulate the Earth on such a magnitude and level that you can't even imagine like sand on the seashore and when Satan is released he will witness the kingdom of God on Earth and all its Glory and he will test all the people who are living who have never seen him who have only heard about him and apparently he will deceive a great many of them and convince them to go to war against Christ as you can read in Revelation chapter 20 through 22
We are living in the final few years of the Short Season. Most of the prophecies he's in the book of Revelation have already been fulfilled. In scripture, we are in Revelation 20:7 and 2nd Esdras 11:32. Analysis, proofs, dates, and timelines at my YT channel.
I have a doubt. Suppose if we go to heaven in 2nd coming of Jesus Christ, Then After 1000 years reign, when satan is released, is there any possibility of people who are already in heaven, going to get destroyed because of deceive by Satan ?
Helpful. The important thing to acknowledge, though is that Satan is at work this very moment! This is the biblical truth. While we are here on earth, denying the evil one's existence, is a catastrophic mistake. Don't make it! Remember, when the devil knocks, ALWAYS let Jesus Christ answer. Jesus Christ, is the ONLY one, who can take the devil on. We, as followers of the Lord Jesus, are safe from the devil, if we accept and call upon Christ, whose shed blood for us, covers and protects us at all times. So, if you are tempted sin, to do evil, immediately turn to Christ, in repentance and humility, for help: Here is simple prayers you can use: "Lord Jesus, I repented my sins, come into my heart, wash me clean, for You are my Lord and Savior." "In Jesus' name I pray, devil go away!" "Thank you, Jesus." Amen.

A Millennium Puzzle to solve… Will Christ be conducting funeral services for mortals killed in accidents 500 years after His Second Coming? The “first resurrection” in Rev. chapter 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the Book of Revelation, because the two witnesses are resurrected from the dead in chapter 11. There are two different types of resurrection in John chapter 5. There is a spiritual resurrection from the dead in John 5:24, and a bodily resurrection from the dead in John 5:28-29. Does your view of the Millennium agree with what Paul said in 2 Thess. 1:7-10, when Paul said Christ returns in "flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:10-13, when Peter said this earth is going to burn and "dissolve" when He comes as a thief on the day of the Lord? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Paul said in 2 Tim. 4:1, when Paul said both the living and the dead will be judged at His appearing? The time of the judgment of the dead, with reward for some and destruction for others is found in Rev. 11:18, right after the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible. (This verse also proves the Book of Rev. is not in chronological order.) The judgment of the dead is also found at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Jesus said in Matt. 25:31-46, where He described the judgment of the sheep and goats, which leaves no mortals alive on the planet at the end of the passage? There are also no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Rev. chapter 19. Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness? Does your view agree with what John recorded in Rev. 9:1-2, when an angel comes down from heaven with a key to unlock the pit, which means the pit was locked before that time? Are there wicked angels already in the pit in Rev. 9:11? John recorded angels already "bound" in Rev. 9:14. The beast "ascends" out of the pit in Rev. chapter 11, which means the beast was in the pit before that time. Take all of the above and compare it to the symbolic language found in Rev. chapter 20, and the fact the Book of Revelation is not in chronological order, and you will have the truth. ============================ Multiple Second Coming Visions in Revelation: (book not in chronological order ) Christ returns one time in the future. However, there are several different visions of His return shown from different perspectives in the Book of Revelation. Christ returns at the end of Revelation chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are found in the Olivet Discourse. Those at the end of the chapter are hiding from the wrath of the Lamb. Why would they be hiding if Christ is not present? The "kings", "captains", "might men", "free", and "bond" are also found in chapter 19 at the return of Christ. He returns at the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible, and the time of the judgment of the dead in Revelation 11:15-18. The beginning of chapter 12 is a history lesson containing the fall of Satan, and the birth and death of Christ, who is the seed promised to crush the head of Satan in Genesis 3:15. The Second Coming is found in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew chapter 13. He comes as a thief at Armageddon, and we find the greatest earthquake in history in chapter 16. This occurs when the 7th angel pours out his vial. How powerful is an earthquake which moves islands and destroys the mountains? What is happening to the planet? He comes on a horse in chapter 19. Chapter 20? Does He come with the fire, and the judgment of the dead at the end of chapter 20, which agrees with what Paul said in 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10, and 2 Timothy 4:1? (The time of the judgment of the dead is also found in Revelation 11:18.) There are no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Matthew 25:31-46. Why does an angel come down from heaven with a key to unlock the bottomless pit in Revelation 9:1-2, if the pit was not already locked before that time? Are there wicked angels in the pit in Rev. 9:11? If the beast "ascends" from the pit in Rev. chapter 11, where was the beast before that time? Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness? Revelation 9:14 proves some of the angels were previously bound in some manner. Because the two witnesses were bodily resurrected from the dead in Revelation 11, the "first resurrection" at the beginning of Revelation 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the book. The principle of "Recapitulation" means there are multiple visions of His return.
From God's perspective, He is demonstrating to humanity just how dark & deceitful the human heart truly is. During the Millennial Reign of Jesus, sinful people will live, procreate, and die -- just like we do right now. Sinful people will need to experience the new birth -- just like we do right now.

Yes sir. But maybe there's one thing you need to consider. (Voice dictated please phone keyboard for too small, my apologies hopefully it's understandable) If it were a spiritual reign and Satan was cast in the pit for a thousand years, even if it weren't a spiritual reign in Christ were actually walking on the earth with the people. Satan's influence would no longer be here. However man is still man and man has free will. Think about it for a minute. As far as waiting for Christ to return in the clouds. I'm not a preterist by any means. But have you taken the time to read the works of Josephus or tacitus... There are others. But right there are your two witnesses of Christ returning in the clouds in the prophecies that were needed to fulfill. Especially if you read it in the Greek. That all of the people of all of the tribes saw him arrive and it was the end of the age. After all aeon is not kosmos.. Not knowing how much is true with our timeline. But understanding that Jesus Christ is not a liar and when you read the works of the apostles and the wording of revelations and you look at the personal pronouns you can realize he was speaking to those people. Not to us. To the seven churches... But who knows what day it actually is. I would be willing to bet as I stated since Christ isn't a liar that we're in that revelations Little season. After all look at modern churches and help pathetic and ticky tacky they look. No seriously compare your church to a cathedral in Europe. Something built during the Byzantine empire.
Amen! Yes. Once we are in the new heavens and the new earth, will there be any possibility of any other rebellion? Would it still be possible for any of the nations to rebel or any other angelic being to rebel?
The thousand year reign is contradictory to the second coming of Jesus. The Bible says: "So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him." Matthew 24:44 If we don't KNOW when Jesus is coming back, how can we say that Jesus can't come now because the thousand year reign hasn't occurred yet. That implies that we KNOW that Jesus can't come now when Matthew 24:44 says the opposite that we DON'T KNOW absolutely anything about when the second coming of Jesus will occur.
Your comment doesn't make any sense; there is nothing contradictory about the Bible. The Father can send Jesus back once things have been accomplished. For example, the gospel needs to be preached to all people-groups on Earth -- and that won't happen for quite some time.
IndianaJoe0321 So you’re saying that YOU KNOW that Jesus can’t come back right now when the Bible says that NO ONE KNOWS. That’s what I mean by contradictory.
If you stick to Scripture, @@joham, there is nothing contradictory. Of course Jesus could NOT come back now, today, or tomorrow. What does the Bible say? "For at that time there will be great tribulation, THE KIND THAT HASN'T TAKEN PLACE FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD UNTIL NOW AND NEVER WILL AGAIN! Unless those days were limited, no one would survive. But those days will be limited because of the Elect... "IMMEDIATELY AFTER the tribulation of those days: The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not shed its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the celestial powers will be shaken. THEN the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the peoples of the earth will mourn; and they will see the Son of Man coming ..." ~ Matthew 24:21-22; 29-30a [emphasis mine]
@@IndianaJoe0321 I completely agree there’s no contradiction in the Bible, is the word of God, but if you say that YOU KNOW, then YOU’RE contradicting the Bible. Jesus said “42 Therefore keep watch, because YOU DO NOT KNOW on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.” Matthew 24:42-43 When is the thief coming? Do YOU KNOW WHEN the thief is coming? Of course not! It can be ANYTIME. If the thousand year reign is going to occur, then I can safely ignore this Bible passage, but has Jesus told us to ignore Matthew 24:36-44? NO, HE HASN’T. Because again, he can come on ANYTIME, including RIGHT NOW. To say that YOU KNOW is to say that YOU KNOW when the thief is coming, contrary to Scripture.
What happens during the millennium in terms of “ normal life” on earth? Do people carry on working as per normal while the saints rule over them together with Christ?
So, we will have to be overcomers twice? It is hard enough to overcome just once, I cannot even imagine the 2nd round after I die in this life for not taking the mark or worshipping the image.
They will build houses and inhabit them. I assume we will work but it want be as burdensome like today. Money want be our motivation and that will relive a lot of stress. We will enjoy life, parks will exist, stores, gathering places but the corrupted things we have today want be tolerated.
The gulf that Jesus described in Luke 16 will still be in heaven during the millennium. Souls that have overcome the testing of satan through their faith in Jesus Christ, God's Word, are immortal and will not be tested again. They will be with Jesus and will be able to go help loved ones that are on the other side of the gulf from Jesus that have souls that are still mortal and might die the 2nd death, which is death of the soul after death of the flesh, when satan is released to test the souls that are still mortal, just prior to Judgment Day. How will the overcomers be helping? No one can pass this test for someone else. Teaching and planting seeds of God's Word is how people learn about God and His great plan, through Jesus Christ, to offer the invitation of salvation of the eternal soul, Romans 10:17 KJV. God's Word teaches discipline and how to fight the enemy to the best of our ability and have faith in God through Jesus to help us when we fall short. The ones who leave Christ to go help loved ones on the other side of the gulf during the millennium will pay a price of seven days away from Christ before they can return to Him, but aren't loved ones worth that? Ezekiel 40-44 KJV God does love when we pray for others who need some help. Job 42:7-10 KJV. From The Companion Bible KJV side column notes for Ezekiel 40:5. *he measured* In all the measurements, the unit is one-seventh longer than Solomon's Temple , pointing to the eighth, the day of God. Seven speaks of completion. Eight speaks of a new beginning (see Appendix 10. levendwater.org/companion/append10.html and for more in depth book, "Number in Scripture" levendwater.org/books/numbers/frameset.htm?index.html&inhoudsopgave.htm ) In "the day of God" all things will be new.
You wrote, "They ... will be able to go help loved ones that [sic] are on the other side of the gulf from Jesus ..." Jesus said that Abraham said, "Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from their pass to us." ~ Luke 16:26 (cf. Heb 9:27) So you may want to fix your theology -- to line up with God's word.
Satan is released to deceive the nations once more and they will march around the new Jerusalem, then fire is going to rain down from the sky and consume them. (read: Revelation chapter 19).
Regardless of pre or during or after the tribulation, scripture does not support a rapture at all. It only supports his return to earth, some saw the scripture telling that we would rise to meet him in the air and got their own ideas of that.
Rise to meet him (In The Air), what else does scripture say that might indicate what that means? I've always been intrigued by that. Some believe it might be indication of technology, as in God is an Alien.
I'm not trying to say that, I'm just saying I see where it's easy to get confused, cause I'm confused about it. I really do want to know but I wouldn't know where to start.
Are you referring to Daniel 7, @@FitnessConnect? Remember: when Saul/Paul wrote to the assembly at Thessalonica, the Scriptures known to the congregations were the Septuagint -- the Greek Old Testament. So what we know of as 1 Thessalonians 4:17 would have evoked -- in the letter's hearers/readers -- images of Daniel 7:13-14 where "behold, One like the Son of Man, coming with the clouds ..."
So we are not living in the thousand years now? So if man will be around on this rock for even another thousand years, we will have likely become a space faring race and colonized Mars before all this is over. Maybe that's what "meet him in the air" means. Maybe it's just a hint as to an age when things will kick off!
Pretrib Rapture is made up -- it's a recent false teaching propagatedninto popularity by the Scofield Reference Bible. If you read Church History, you'll find the error doesn't start taking shape until the 17th century & gain steam in the 19th century.
Sad how many people are deceived with pre trib rapture. You'll have to go through a lot for christ and before entering heaven. Jesus suffered. The 144000 are suffering right now. All believers will get their faith tested. Satan will be released agter 1,000 years as a final test to believers. We ain't nowhere near yet to live of eternal bliss in heaven. Gotta earn it.

No, @@fundreamer1, folks don't get more chances -- they don't need them. God's mercy & grace are sufficient.
From God's perspective, He is demonstrating to humanity just how dark & deceitful the human heart truly is.
During the Millennial Reign of Jesus, sinful people will live, procreate, and die -- just like we do right now. Sinful people will need to experience the new birth -- just like we do right now. People will be required to worship Jesus in Jerusalem -- but many still won't do it (Zech 14:17-18).
Think about it: it really doesn't make sense to us that if right now -- that if Jesus were manifested right now, for real, in the flesh, sitting on a real Throne, over in Jerusalem, that people would NOT believe & trust Him?! Wait ... whuut??
YET, during the Millennium unconverted sinners will refuse His blessing and His offer of eternal life -- EVEN WITHOUT the Devil & his minions hanging around to influence thoughts & situations.

When Christ comes again everyone dies and judgement day happens.
You can choose to believe that, but that's not what the Bible teaches, @@fundreamer1.
Really appreciate your explanations Dr. Brown. Thank you.
The millennial has come to pass. You’re welcome!
How so when Satan has not been bound?
you didnt answer why is he released?
I've heard amillenialists say Satan is bound in a certain way... Like only concerning deceiving the nations. Makes no sense. This chapter is why I'll probably never be amillenial

@@retrograd332 They say Satan IS bound so that he can't deceive the nations. In all other regards he is not bound. That doesn't make sense to me. But if that's what you believe I'll listen to your explanation
Amillennialists need to twist Scripture in order to make it conform to their beliefs. Rev 20:2b-3a clearly refutes the Amillennialist view.
... and yet, @@fabiancortez2256, the Bible says that the Devil will be cast into the bottomless Pit, and shut up, with a seal set on him. That bottomless Pit doesn't sound like Earth, does it?

This is what happened in the underworld when Jesus died and went down into Hades...

1 Peter 3:19-20 (Canonical New Testament)

Acts of Pilate 5(21)-6(22) - Part II The Descent of Christ into Hell (Apocryphal New Testament)
Greek Form.
"While Satan and Hades were thus speaking to each other, there was a great voice like thunder, saying: Lift up your gates, O ye rulers; and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting gates; and the King of glory shall come in. When Hades heard, he said to Satan: Go forth, if thou art able, and withstand him. Satan therefore went forth to the outside. Then Hades says to his demons: Secure well and strongly the gates of brass and the bars of iron, and attend to my bolts, and stand in order, and see to everything; for if he come in here, woe will seize us. The forefathers having heard this, began all to revile him, saying: O all-devouring and insatiable! open, that the King of glory may come in. David the prophet says: Dost thou not know, O blind, that I when living in the world prophesied this saying: Lift up your gates, O ye rulers? Hesaias said: I, foreseeing this by the Holy Spirit, wrote: The dead shall rise up, and those in their tombs shall be raised, and those in the earth shall rejoice. And where, O death, is thy sting? where, O Hades, is thy victory? There came, then, again a voice saying: Lift up the gates. Hades, hearing the voice the second time, answered as if forsooth he did not know, and says: Who is this King of glory? The angels of the Lord say: The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. And immediately with these words the brazen gates were shattered, and the iron bars broken, and all the dead who had been bound came out of the prisons, and we with them. And the King of glory came in, in the form of a man, and all the dark places of Hades were lighted up. Immediately Hades cried out: We have been conquered: woe to us! But who art thou, that hast such power and might? and what art thou, who comest here without sin who art seen to be small and yet of great power, lowly and exalted, the slave and the master, the soldier and the king, who hast power over the dead and the living? Thou wast nailed on the cross, and placed in the tomb; and now thou art free, and hast destroyed all our power. Art thou then the Jesus about whom the chief satrap Satan told us, that through cross and death thou art to inherit the whole world? Then the King of glory seized the chief satrap Satan by the head, and delivered him to His angels, and said: With iron chains bind his hands and his feet, and his neck, and his mouth. Then He delivered him to Hades, and said: Take him, and keep him secure till my second appearing [Latin. First Version 6:22 - The King of glory, trampling on death by His majesty, and seizing Prince Satan, delivered him to the power of Hades | Latin. Second Version 8:24 - Hades being suddenly summoned, He commanded him, and said: Take this most wicked and impious one, and have him in thy keeping even to that day in which I shall command thee]..."

Acts of Pilate 7(23)-8(24) - Part II The Descent of Christ into Hell (Apocryphal New Testament)
Greek Form.
"And Hades receiving Satan, said to him: Beelzebul, heir of fire and punishment, enemy of the saints, through what necessity didst thou bring about that the King of glory should be crucified, so that he should come here and deprive us of our power? Turn and see that not one of the dead has been left in me, but all that thou hast gained through the tree of knowledge, all hast thou lost through the tree of the cross: and all thy joy has been turned into grief; and wishing to put to death the King of glory, thou hast put thyself to death. For, since I have received thee to keep thee safe, by experience shall thou learn how many evils I shall do unto thee. O arch-devil, the beginning of death, root of sin, end of all evil, what evil didst thou find in Jesus, that thou shouldst compass his destruction? how hast thou dared to do such evil? how hast thou busied thyself to bring down such a man into this darkness, through whom thou hast been deprived of all who have died from eternity? While Hades was thus discoursing to Satan, the King of glory stretched out His right hand, and took hold of our forefather Adam, and raised him. Then turning also to the rest, He said: Come all with me, as many as have died through the tree which he touched: for, behold, I again raise you all up through the tree of the cross. Thereupon He brought them all out, and our forefather Adam seemed to be filled with joy, and said: I thank Thy majesty, O Lord, that Thou hast brought me up out of the lowest Hades. Likewise also all the prophets and the saints said: We thank Thee, O Christ, Saviour of the world, that Thou hast brought our life up out of destruction. And after they had thus spoken, the Saviour blessed Adam with the sign of the cross on his forehead, and did this also to the patriarchs, and prophets, and martyrs, and forefathers; and He took them, and sprang up out of Hades. And while He was going, the holy fathers accompanying Him sang praises, saying: Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord: Alleluia; to Him be the glory of all the saints..."

All this already happen we are after the 1000 years Satan is doing his thing now. But Jesus already died for us and open the gates of heaven again so you are all free from sin of the flesh.
No, the reign hasn't happen yet
Absolutely false. If the devil is bound up, how is this current earth full of so much evil and deception? And I haven’t seen Jesus here on earth for a 1000 years yet.
If the 1000 year has already come where is the peace it talks about
@@jonathanhicks3191 This is supposed to be "Satan's Little Season" where he is loosed to deceive the world again, but no one says WHY God would set him free to do this??
Loved this. I read it the same.
I really wish Dr. Brown would write a commentary on the Bible... or, at least, on the New Testament. A verse-by-verse commentary would be great, although I realize that would be a massive undertaking... so a chapter-by-chapter commentary would still be helpful.
Have you not read his Job commentary nor his Jeremiah commentary?
given it took him 2 minutes to do this one, multiple that by 31,000 verses, gives you 62,000 minutes, which is 2588 days, which is 7 years. But I think 2 minutes for this verse is not considered a study, not a justifiable defence for his position. But then, maybe this is just an opinion.
The thousand year reign of Christ is when He returns at the second coming and resurrects the saints, destroys the wicked with the brightness of His coming and then goes back to heaven for the one thousand years. The millenlial reign is spent in heaven while satan is down here on earth in his prison waiting his sentence. The vindication of the character of God takes place while He opens the books in heaven and the saints "judge angels" and the lost. Basically confirming God's decision to destroy satan, his fallen counterparts and the wicked that have rejected Christ. All heaven descends after the millennium in the New Jerusalem, Christ resurrects the wicked, satan rallys them to take the City and fire comes down from God out of heaven and destroys sin and the wicked and then recreates the world brand new. Amazing Facts.org is a great site to visit to learn more on this subject. God bless.
Thank you so much. It never gelled with me from the beginning of my walk with Jesus.
But here’s what I don’t understand. If everyone has a glorified body after Jesus returns, then how can they rebel against him? It seems that after Jesus returns, death will be vanquished from the earth.
Joseph Logsdon how do you know that everyone will have glorified bodies ?
Collin Bolles When Jesus returns, all Christians will be given glorified bodies, and from what I understand, all nonbelievers will be vanquished or sent to Hell.
It works if some of those who were alive at the end (but not those who were caught up as Paul said), may survive in the flesh to procreate.
No flesh can enter heaven. Gods people will be given glorified bodies when we are caught up to be with Him. To be able to be in His presence our flesh cannot withstand His glory and power, after all, our flesh is full of sin. If we are to reside with Jesus in the new Jerusalem then I can imagine our bodies would not be flesh. The dead in Christ would certainly not rise in their flesh either but have new glorified bodies. Oh what a day that will be! Maranatha 😊✝️🙌💕
And that is why you must study the words of jesus about the sheep and goats and the 144000 sealed ones The most high God will resurrect and glorify his saints and judge the wicked who have recieved the mark of the beast but they're will be some people on earth that were not saints nor took the mark and the remanent of them that survived will have babies and populate the earth and since those who are worthy to attain the resurrection body cannot have sex and have already proved on this Earth that they love the Lord and have laid down their lives for him they will not be marrying and giving in marriage because they wont have fleshly bodies that can sin..only the ones who remain and are not part of the Antichrist Army yet aren't saints will repopulate and from them and their children God will repopulate the Earth on such a magnitude and level that you can't even imagine like sand on the seashore and when Satan is released he will witness the kingdom of God on Earth and all its Glory and he will test all the people who are living who have never seen him who have only heard about him and apparently he will deceive a great many of them and convince them to go to war against Christ as you can read in Revelation chapter 20 through 22
We are living in the final few years of the Short Season. Most of the prophecies he's in the book of Revelation have already been fulfilled. In scripture, we are in Revelation 20:7 and 2nd Esdras 11:32.
Analysis, proofs, dates, and timelines at my YT channel.
I have a doubt. Suppose if we go to heaven in 2nd coming of Jesus Christ, Then After 1000 years reign, when satan is released, is there any possibility of people who are already in heaven, going to get destroyed because of deceive by Satan ?
How would that be able to happen?
Helpful. The important thing to acknowledge, though is that Satan is at work this very moment!
This is the biblical truth.
While we are here on earth, denying the evil one's existence, is a catastrophic mistake. Don't make it!
Remember, when the devil knocks, ALWAYS let Jesus Christ answer.
Jesus Christ, is the ONLY one, who can take the devil on. We, as followers of the Lord Jesus, are safe from the devil, if we accept and call upon Christ, whose shed blood for us, covers and protects us at all times.
So, if you are tempted sin, to do evil, immediately turn to Christ, in repentance and humility, for help: Here is simple prayers you can use:
"Lord Jesus, I repented my sins, come into my heart, wash me clean, for You are my Lord and Savior."
"In Jesus' name I pray,
devil go away!"
"Thank you, Jesus."
Amen.
While what you say is accurate, Dr. Brown's topic was not on these points.
@@teresahiatt1061 Concured. Just wanted to point it out, since it sometimes gets lost in the pre- a- post-millenial debate.
God bless you and keep you. Amen
In the book of Revelation a "thousand year" is equal to a "day"
That's a really long day 😂😩
So how does one life, one death and one judgment apply to this if it does. Thankyou ❤
A Millennium Puzzle to solve… Will Christ be conducting funeral services for mortals killed in accidents 500 years after His Second Coming?
The “first resurrection” in Rev. chapter 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the Book of Revelation, because the two witnesses are resurrected from the dead in chapter 11. There are two different types of resurrection in John chapter 5. There is a spiritual resurrection from the dead in John 5:24, and a bodily resurrection from the dead in John 5:28-29.
Does your view of the Millennium agree with what Paul said in 2 Thess. 1:7-10, when Paul said Christ returns in "flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:10-13, when Peter said this earth is going to burn and "dissolve" when He comes as a thief on the day of the Lord? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Paul said in 2 Tim. 4:1, when Paul said both the living and the dead will be judged at His appearing? The time of the judgment of the dead, with reward for some and destruction for others is found in Rev. 11:18, right after the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible. (This verse also proves the Book of Rev. is not in chronological order.) The judgment of the dead is also found at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Jesus said in Matt. 25:31-46, where He described the judgment of the sheep and goats, which leaves no mortals alive on the planet at the end of the passage? There are also no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Rev. chapter 19.
Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness?
Does your view agree with what John recorded in Rev. 9:1-2, when an angel comes down from heaven with a key to unlock the pit, which means the pit was locked before that time? Are there wicked angels already in the pit in Rev. 9:11? John recorded angels already "bound" in Rev. 9:14. The beast "ascends" out of the pit in Rev. chapter 11, which means the beast was in the pit before that time.
Take all of the above and compare it to the symbolic language found in Rev. chapter 20, and the fact the Book of Revelation is not in chronological order, and you will have the truth.
============================
Multiple Second Coming Visions in Revelation: (book not in chronological order )
Christ returns one time in the future. However, there are several different visions of His return shown from different perspectives in the Book of Revelation.
Christ returns at the end of Revelation chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are found in the Olivet Discourse.
Those at the end of the chapter are hiding from the wrath of the Lamb.
Why would they be hiding if Christ is not present?
The "kings", "captains", "might men", "free", and "bond" are also found in chapter 19 at the return of Christ.
He returns at the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible, and the time of the judgment of the dead in Revelation 11:15-18.
The beginning of chapter 12 is a history lesson containing the fall of Satan, and the birth and death of Christ, who is the seed promised to crush the head of Satan in Genesis 3:15.
The Second Coming is found in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew chapter 13.
He comes as a thief at Armageddon, and we find the greatest earthquake in history in chapter 16. This occurs when the 7th angel pours out his vial. How powerful is an earthquake which moves islands and destroys the mountains? What is happening to the planet?
He comes on a horse in chapter 19.
Chapter 20?
Does He come with the fire, and the judgment of the dead at the end of chapter 20, which agrees with what Paul said in 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10, and 2 Timothy 4:1?
(The time of the judgment of the dead is also found in Revelation 11:18.)
There are no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Matthew 25:31-46.
Why does an angel come down from heaven with a key to unlock the bottomless pit in Revelation 9:1-2, if the pit was not already locked before that time? Are there wicked angels in the pit in Rev. 9:11? If the beast "ascends" from the pit in Rev. chapter 11, where was the beast before that time?
Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness?
Revelation 9:14 proves some of the angels were previously bound in some manner.
Because the two witnesses were bodily resurrected from the dead in Revelation 11, the "first resurrection" at the beginning of Revelation 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the book.
The principle of "Recapitulation" means there are multiple visions of His return.
Did you answer the question though? And please tuck in your bookmarks in the background. They are distracting, lol!
From God's perspective, He is demonstrating to humanity just how dark & deceitful the human heart truly is.
During the Millennial Reign of Jesus, sinful people will live, procreate, and die -- just like we do right now. Sinful people will need to experience the new birth -- just like we do right now. People will be required to worship Jesus in Jerusalem -- but many still won't do it (Zech 14:17-18).
Think about it: it really doesn't make sense to us that if right now -- that if Jesus were manifested right now, for real, in the flesh, sitting on a real Throne, over in Jerusalem, that people would NOT believe & trust Him?! Wait ... whuut??

But why... ?
Yes sir. But maybe there's one thing you need to consider. (Voice dictated please phone keyboard for too small, my apologies hopefully it's understandable) If it were a spiritual reign and Satan was cast in the pit for a thousand years, even if it weren't a spiritual reign in Christ were actually walking on the earth with the people. Satan's influence would no longer be here. However man is still man and man has free will. Think about it for a minute. As far as waiting for Christ to return in the clouds. I'm not a preterist by any means. But have you taken the time to read the works of Josephus or tacitus... There are others. But right there are your two witnesses of Christ returning in the clouds in the prophecies that were needed to fulfill. Especially if you read it in the Greek. That all of the people of all of the tribes saw him arrive and it was the end of the age. After all aeon is not kosmos.. Not knowing how much is true with our timeline. But understanding that Jesus Christ is not a liar and when you read the works of the apostles and the wording of revelations and you look at the personal pronouns you can realize he was speaking to those people. Not to us. To the seven churches... But who knows what day it actually is. I would be willing to bet as I stated since Christ isn't a liar that we're in that revelations Little season. After all look at modern churches and help pathetic and ticky tacky they look. No seriously compare your church to a cathedral in Europe. Something built during the Byzantine empire.
Amen! Yes. Once we are in the new heavens and the new earth, will there be any possibility of any other rebellion? Would it still be possible for any of the nations to rebel or any other angelic being to rebel?
Satan's weapons were music and vanity.... Time is up. Jesus soon to return 🙏
The thousand year reign is contradictory to the second coming of Jesus. The Bible says: "So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him." Matthew 24:44
If we don't KNOW when Jesus is coming back, how can we say that Jesus can't come now because the thousand year reign hasn't occurred yet. That implies that we KNOW that Jesus can't come now when Matthew 24:44 says the opposite that we DON'T KNOW absolutely anything about when the second coming of Jesus will occur.
Your comment doesn't make any sense; there is nothing contradictory about the Bible.
The Father can send Jesus back once things have been accomplished. For example, the gospel needs to be preached to all people-groups on Earth -- and that won't happen for quite some time.
IndianaJoe0321 So you’re saying that YOU KNOW that Jesus can’t come back right now when the Bible says that NO ONE KNOWS. That’s what I mean by contradictory.
If you stick to Scripture, @@joham, there is nothing contradictory.
Of course Jesus could NOT come back now, today, or tomorrow. What does the Bible say?
"For at that time there will be great tribulation, THE KIND THAT HASN'T TAKEN PLACE FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD UNTIL NOW AND NEVER WILL AGAIN! Unless those days were limited, no one would survive. But those days will be limited because of the Elect...
"IMMEDIATELY AFTER the tribulation of those days: The sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not shed its light;
the stars will fall from the sky, and the celestial powers will be shaken. THEN the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the peoples of the earth will mourn; and they will see the Son of Man coming ..."
~ Matthew 24:21-22; 29-30a [emphasis mine]
@@IndianaJoe0321 I completely agree there’s no contradiction in the Bible, is the word of God, but if you say that YOU KNOW, then YOU’RE contradicting the Bible.
Jesus said “42 Therefore keep watch, because YOU DO NOT KNOW on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.” Matthew 24:42-43
When is the thief coming? Do YOU KNOW WHEN the thief is coming? Of course not! It can be ANYTIME.
If the thousand year reign is going to occur, then I can safely ignore this Bible passage, but has Jesus told us to ignore Matthew 24:36-44? NO, HE HASN’T. Because again, he can come on ANYTIME, including RIGHT NOW. To say that YOU KNOW is to say that YOU KNOW when the thief is coming, contrary to Scripture.
What happens during the millennium in terms of “ normal life” on earth? Do people carry on working as per normal while the saints rule over them together with Christ?
Correct. Humans will still procreate and need to get saved -- whilst the glorified saints will rule & reign with Jesus, on the Earth.
So, we will have to be overcomers twice? It is hard enough to overcome just once, I cannot even imagine the 2nd round after I die in this life for not taking the mark or worshipping the image.
They will build houses and inhabit them. I assume we will work but it want be as burdensome like today. Money want be our motivation and that will relive a lot of stress. We will enjoy life, parks will exist, stores, gathering places but the corrupted things we have today want be tolerated.
The gulf that Jesus described in Luke 16 will still be in heaven during the millennium. Souls that have overcome the testing of satan through their faith in Jesus Christ, God's Word, are immortal and will not be tested again. They will be with Jesus and will be able to go help loved ones that are on the other side of the gulf from Jesus that have souls that are still mortal and might die the 2nd death, which is death of the soul after death of the flesh, when satan is released to test the souls that are still mortal, just prior to Judgment Day. How will the overcomers be helping? No one can pass this test for someone else. Teaching and planting seeds of God's Word is how people learn about God and His great plan, through Jesus Christ, to offer the invitation of salvation of the eternal soul, Romans 10:17 KJV. God's Word teaches discipline and how to fight the enemy to the best of our ability and have faith in God through Jesus to help us when we fall short. The ones who leave Christ to go help loved ones on the other side of the gulf during the millennium will pay a price of seven days away from Christ before they can return to Him, but aren't loved ones worth that? Ezekiel 40-44 KJV God does love when we pray for others who need some help. Job 42:7-10 KJV. From The Companion Bible KJV side column notes for Ezekiel 40:5. *he measured* In all the measurements, the unit is one-seventh longer than Solomon's Temple , pointing to the eighth, the day of God. Seven speaks of completion. Eight speaks of a new beginning (see Appendix 10. levendwater.org/companion/append10.html and for more in depth book, "Number in Scripture" levendwater.org/books/numbers/frameset.htm?index.html&inhoudsopgave.htm ) In "the day of God" all things will be new.
You wrote, "They ... will be able to go help loved ones that [sic] are on the other side of the gulf from Jesus ..."
Jesus said that Abraham said, "Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from their pass to us." ~ Luke 16:26 (cf. Heb 9:27)
So you may want to fix your theology -- to line up with God's word.
Thank you Dr. Brown.
Satan is released to deceive the nations once more and they will march around the new Jerusalem, then fire is going to rain down from the sky and consume them. (read: Revelation chapter 19).
You didn't even answer the question dude. Seriously. Thumbs down.
Hey Doctor, why don't you believe in a pre-tribulation rapture? I'm genuinely curious, as I have not done much research about that topic.
Regardless of pre or during or after the tribulation, scripture does not support a rapture at all.
It only supports his return to earth, some saw the scripture telling that we would rise to meet him in the air and got their own ideas of that.
Rise to meet him (In The Air), what else does scripture say that might indicate what that means? I've always been intrigued by that. Some believe it might be indication of technology, as in God is an Alien.
I'm not trying to say that, I'm just saying I see where it's easy to get confused, cause I'm confused about it. I really do want to know but I wouldn't know where to start.
@@FitnessConnect
It also talks about there will be two working in the field, one will be taken and the other left.
It still doesn't mention a rapture.
Are you referring to Daniel 7, @@FitnessConnect?
Remember: when Saul/Paul wrote to the assembly at Thessalonica, the Scriptures known to the congregations were the Septuagint -- the Greek Old Testament. So what we know of as 1 Thessalonians 4:17 would have evoked -- in the letter's hearers/readers -- images of Daniel 7:13-14 where "behold, One like the Son of Man, coming with the clouds ..."
So we are not living in the thousand years now? So if man will be around on this rock for even another thousand years, we will have likely become a space faring race and colonized Mars before all this is over. Maybe that's what "meet him in the air" means. Maybe it's just a hint as to an age when things will kick off!
Nope -- just here on Earth ... God's original plan.
Keep reading your Bible and you'll see pretrib rapture instead of inventing things
Pretrib Rapture is made up -- it's a recent false teaching propagatedninto popularity by the Scofield Reference Bible.
If you read Church History, you'll find the error doesn't start taking shape until the 17th century & gain steam in the 19th century.
Sad how many people are deceived with pre trib rapture. You'll have to go through a lot for christ and before entering heaven.
Jesus suffered.
The 144000 are suffering right now.
All believers will get their faith tested. Satan will be released agter 1,000 years as a final test to believers.
