Book of Revelation • 5.31.20 • Matt Vines

Bible Text: Revelation 20:1-10 | Speaker: RE Matt Vines | Series: Book of Revelation | Our text this week narrates the Lord’s final eschatological victory over Satan. The victory comes in two phases. The first phase is the so-called millennium, during which time Satan is bound in chains in the abyss, and the saints reign with Christ. When the millennium ends, Satan is released, and he attempts to wage war one last time against the Lamb and his army. But Satan is soundly defeated, and he is thrown into the Lake of Fire along with everyone whose names are not written in the Lamb’s book of life. This passage has been interpreted in a variety of different ways throughout Christian history, but the overall message is clear: In the end, Satan will be defeated and the Lamb will reign victorious forever.
