Understanding the Ages

In Matthew 24 Jesus gives an extended discourse about the end of this Age. God’s redemptive purposes unfolding for Israel is a key indicator of God’s prophetic timeclock.

Each Age unfolds a new blessing as part of God’s kingdom purposes. This blessing continues to multiply in succeeding Ages.

Death was introduced when Adam and Eve sinned. Jesus in his death and resurrection won the victory over sin and death. At the beginning of the 6th Age Jesus was resurrected. At the beginning of the 7th Age multitudes experience the first resurrection. At the end of the 7th Age everyone left is resurrected to eternal life or eternal death in the Lake of Fire.

The ultimate goal of God is to destroy death and every separation between God and mankind. God remodels earth and heaven and makes them into one reality. Earth and heaven are one just as God and Mankind are one.

The Millennium Kingdom sees every nation set free from idolatry. Many of the ravages of demonic activity are negated and there is a new experience of God’s peace over all mankind and all creatures of the earth.
