The Knock-off millennium

[Ghada]

When a brand name is stolen and put on counterfeit merchandise, it's called a rip or knock-off.

That's being done with the Lord's thousand year rule upon the earth, which is called His Millennium.

Some false prophets have been preaching rip-off versions, that are not millenniums at all. They are preaching another kind of reign on earth, that is not even a thousand years, much less the Lord's authentic Bible brand name.

They are prophesying a continued reign over the earth from heaven, for however many years. They usually expire their non-millennial reign at the end of the earth.

And so, we see they are not at all preaching a millennium. They are not 'millennialists', but nonmillennialists. And when they call their stuff a millennium, they are pushing a lying knock-off version of Christ's Millennium in the Bible.

I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

These self-prophets can certainly teach whatever 'reigning' they want to be a part of, but calling it a millennium is a deceitful lie to lure in the ignorant, and confirm the decieved.

Like all knock-off artists, they peddle their merchandise to unsuspecting marks, or knowing buyers. But in the ministry of Christ, they are merchandising and proselytizing souls of men and women.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and odours, and ointments, and wine, and oil, and beasts, and slaves, and souls of men.

They think in numbers of agreement, they can make their lie into a truth.

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

I have often found that many of these nonmillennialists, are also believers in unconditional salvation.

Their knock-off version of their own, is usually an ongoing spiritual reign from heaven for thousands of years, that affects the earth, but is not ruled by the resurrected Lord and saints standing upon the earth.

And here's why:

Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Like their salvation is unconditionally secured by presently believing it alone, then so is their deliverance from the second death secured by having present part in a spirit-only reign from heaven. Neither way has judgment waiting for them to live forever. It's already secured by their doctrine and prophecy alone.

They secure both the beginning and the ending of their souls forever, with no need to be made worthy by works and life lived on earth.
