Proverbs 2:21-22 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it. But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.


This passage caught my eye this morning. It shows exactly what to expect in the millennium.

I went back over Proverbs today and yes...it does have a lot being told to us..two groups..the upright must be those who are given eternal life who shall dwell eternally in the land...

Then the perfect shall remain in it...another group...those the Lord has brought in that serves his purpose for the Millennium...

This may sound strange to you,  :confused0006:  but the more I read this last year, I am seeing in the scriptures that God has had all these generations of people come forth to choose out of them...a people for himself for the Millennium...a  1000 yrs upon the earth that includes our offspring that are sanctified and made holy through us..that has been pleasing to the Lord to bring them  into the Millennium to eat off the tree of Life, which heals the nations..there is many who our Lord has decided to bring in that doesn't fit into our theology in our understanding for the most part. 

The 1000 yrs appears to be the time given to our offspring and others the Lord brings into the Millennium to learn about him, and the earth is governed by the Lord and his chosen as the government...that is as far as I have gotten into the scriptures in understanding what our Lord is actually saying...

Isaiah say in one place:   Isa 45:11 This is what the Lord says---concerning the "THINGS TO COME", do you question "ME" about MY CHILDRENOr give me orders about the WORKS OF MY HANDS

The Lord is speaking to his chosen people in the Millennium and he says further down in the verses of Isaiah 45:12-14  that he created all things and HE will raise CYRUS UP IN HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS...  a man who took Israel captive towards the end of the 70 yrs of captivity starting with King Neb, then Darius and then Cyrus...  also people like Rehab who hid God's people ....there are many things our Lord mentions in the bible that brings a deeper meaning to the Proverbs verse you quoted...the  perfect shall remain...

I am beginning to see we as Christians have missed a lot of what our Lord speaks in the bible thinking all have to believe in Christ to be in the kingdom of God..but that is not so according to all the verses I am reading and what the Lord speaks directly to us about certain individuals who did good before the Lord in their acts...though they were NOT CALLED OR IN COVENANT WITH HIM...but please God in being good to his people in some ways...

Thought I'd share that with you...I am not sure what happens at the Great White throne judgment but it seems those who did not have a calling and did good come into the Millennium to have a 1000 yrs to know the ways of God...and at the End those who turn against God are destroyed forever..but the Elect as Jesus says that have been made Priest and Kings have no fear of the 2nd death during the Millennium..so death still takes place with the perfect and even to the point of total destruction by God...except for those given eternal life.  interesting isn't it? 

In Christ's love


Interesting indeed!
