What started with the first six trumpets in Revelation 8. The seventh trumpet is not sounded until Revelations 11. This trumpet announces that the Kingdom of God and Christ's reign, the ages of ages, have begun. We saw when looking at hell and how long people would be there that there was a limit, the shortest of which was two ages. Satan was until the end of the ages. In all the ages to come, Satan will be in the lake except for the next, the 1000 years. The same period is used here for Christ’s reign. I have no idea what’s at the end of that. It will be beyond our comprehension. Rev 11-18 says The nations raged, but your wrath came, and the time came for the dead to be judged, and to reward your servants, the prophets and saints, and those who fear your name, both small and great.
There appears to be a conflict here, as elsewhere in the Bible it says that the judgement will take place at the end of the 1000 years. However, the scriptures describe a first resurrection, which leads me to believe there will be a whole judging ceremony for those people at this point. The hundred million who either died for their beliefs earlier or during the time of the Antichrist. They are all called elders, but only 24 have a throne in heaven.
The Ark of the Covenant is mentioned in this verse. All the stories about where it is now should never have happened. There are no secret caves in Africa or under the Temple Mount. Although some made for entertaining movies. It says clearly that it was taken to the temple of God in heaven. Rev 11-19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple. I suspect it was a long time ago.
Satan and all those involved with him are described as the destroyers of the earth. These agendas, like the COVID-19 scam and the climate change agenda, are meant to do nothing but destroy the people on the earth. Daniel 9 tells us of these “Desolations declared”!
