What could prove more than this that Christ will actually
land on the planet earth and be visible among men again forever? He will set
His feet on the Mount Olives first (Zech 14:4) then when this millennial and
eternal sanctuary is completed He will walk into it - it will be the place of
the soles of His feet, His capital building, His dwelling, His headquarters,
His throne-room and His office from where He will rule over all nations
forever.
Revelation 20:1-10
1 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the
key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain.
2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the
devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.
3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over
him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years
were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.
4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given
authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because
of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not
worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their
foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand
years.
5 (The rest of the
dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the
first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first
resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests
of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.
7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released
from his prison
8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners
of the earth—Gog and Magog—to gather them for battle. In number they are like
the sand on the seashore.
9 They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded
the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and
devoured them.
10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake
of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They
will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Revelation 22:4-5
4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their
foreheads.
5 There will be no more night. They will not need the light
of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And
they will reign for ever and ever.
