Virtual God
and the
Prophetic Power Wranglers
by Rev. Michael D. Perry, MBA


Chapter 7
THE AFTERMATH

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Again I must repeat that this book gives my own personal observations of Bible prophecy and are my own opinions and are not to be construed as "Revelations from God." The following are merely examples of how prophetic scriptures could be fulfilled.  Only time will show the truth.

The Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ ends with the "Final Conflict" fought between the Lord and Satan.  The Devil will be loosed from the bottomless pit and will gather another army in Russia and Poland (Magog) to attack the Lord in Jerusalem.

Nahum 1:11 - - There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the Lord, a wicked counseller.

Revelation 20:3 - - . . . till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

Revelation 20:7-9 - - And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison.  And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.  And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city . . .

Jesus will fight for Israel and will defeat all wickedness.

Nahum 1:5-10 - - The mountains quake at Him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at His presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.  Who can stand before His indignation?  And who can abide in the fierceness of His anger?  His fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by Him. The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knoweth them that trust in Him.  But with an overrunning flood He will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.  For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.

Nahum 2:3, 4 - - The shield of His mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of His preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.  The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.

Micah 5:15 - - And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.

Isaiah 2:19-21 - - And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth.  In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idoIs of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; to go into the cleft of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

Hosea 10:8 - - The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, cover us; and to the hills, fall on us.

Luke 23:30 - - Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, fall on us; and to the hills, cover us.

Micah 7:16, 1 7 - - The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might. they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the Lord our God, and shall fear because of thee.

Habakkuk 3:3-6, 10-13, 16 - - God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran.  Selah.  His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of His praise.  And His brightness was as the light; He had horns coming out of His hand. there was the hiding of His power Before Him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at His feet.  He stood, and measured the earth: He beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: His ways are everlasting.  The mountains saw thee, and they trembled. The overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high.  The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah. When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled within myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when He cometh up unto the people, He will invade them with His troops.

Haggai 2:6, 7, 9, 21, 22 - - For thus saith the Lord of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; and I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.  The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the Lord of hosts. . . . I will shake the heavens and the earth; and I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.

Revelation 6:12-17 - - And I beheld when He had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; and the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig cast her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.  And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.  And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: for the great day of His wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Planet Earth went through a "water baptism" during the time of Noah.  It will also be consumed by, fire, a sort of "fire baptism." This is the great holocaust that people are afraid will happen today.

Isaiah 34:2-4, 8-10 - - For the indignation of the Lord is upon all nations, and His fury upon all their armies: He hath utterly destroyed them, He hath delivered them to the slaughter.  Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up out of their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.  And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.  For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.  And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.  It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.

Isaiah 24:19, 20 - - The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved,
the earth is moved exceedingly.  The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

Zephaniah 1:2, 3 - - I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the Lord.  I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumbling-blocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the Lord.

Zephaniah 3:8 - - Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

Matthew 24:29 - - Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

Hebrews 12:26-29 - - Whose voice then shook the earth: but now He hath promised, saying, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.  Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.

Mark 13:31 - - Heaven and earth shall pass away . . .

Luke 12:49 - - I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?

2 Peter 3:7, 10, 12 - - But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. . . . in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. . . . wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat.

Revelation 20:9 - - . . . and fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.

No one will be able to stand against the judgment of God through Jesus Christ.  Lucifer is dealt with first.

John 12:31 - - Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

2 Peter 2:4 - - For if God spared not the angels that sinned but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment . . .

Jude 1:6 - - And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, He hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

Revelation 20:10 - - And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

The Lord's credentials are given and judgment is announced.

Isaiah 45:20, 21 - - Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.  Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time?  Who hath told it from that time? Have not I the Lord? And there is no god else beside me; a just God and a saviour; there is none beside me.

Isaiah 46:10 - - Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.

Revelation 11:18 - - And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged . . . and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

The fifth judgment mentioned in the Bible is the "White Throne Judgment." This is the last judgment and is only for the wicked.  The wicked dead are raised for judgment at the end of the Millennium.

Isaiah 24:21, 22 - - And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.  And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.

Revelation 11:19 - - And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in His temple the ark of His testament. and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

Daniel 7:10 - - A fiery stream issued and came forth from before Him: thousand thousands ministered unto Him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.

Revelation 20:5 - - . . . the dead lived not until the thousand years were finished.

Revelation 20:11 - - And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.  And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.  And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire.  This is the second death.  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Daniel 12:2 - - And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake . . . to shame and everlasting contempt.

Malachi 4:1 - - For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven, and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

Matthew 3:12 - - Whose fan is in His hand, and He will throughly purge His floor, and gather His wheat into the garner, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Matthew 7:21-13 - - Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?  And in thy name have cast out devils?  And in thy name done many wonderful works?  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Matthew 13:39-42, 49, 50 - - The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.  As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so shall it be in the end of this world.  The Son of Man shall send forth His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom, all things that offend, and them that do iniquity; and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.  So shall it be at the end o the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just.  And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

John 15:6 - - If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Romans 2:5, 6, 8, 9, 16 - - But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; who will render to every man according to his deeds.  But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, upon every soul that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile.  In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

2 Thessalonians 1:8, 9 - - In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power.

Hebrews 1:11, 12 - - They shall perish, but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; and as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed. but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.

Hebrews 10:27 - - But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

2 Peter 2:9, 12, 14 - - . . . and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished.  But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; and shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time.  Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children.

1 Corinthians 15:26 - - The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

Revelation 2:11 - - . . . He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

After the Earth is destroyed by fire and the wicked are cast into the lake of fire, God will create new heavens and a new earth and a new Jerusalem.  Our future will be in perfection.  We have much to look forward to and much to be thankful for (see Chart 7-1).


Chart 7-1. The Spirit World
(click to enlarge)

Isaiah 65:17-19 - - For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come to mind But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold I created Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.  And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

Isaiah 66:22 - - For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain.

2 Peter 3:13 - - Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Revelation 21:1-7, 9-11, 18, 21-27 - - And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.  And I John saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down form God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.  And He that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.  And He said unto me, write: for these words are true and faithful. And He said unto me, It is done.  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.  And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God Having the glory of God; and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal . . . and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. . . . and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.  And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it; for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour of the nation into it.  And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

John 14:2 - - In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.  I go to prepare a place for you.

Isaiah 24:23 - - Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before His ancients gloriously.

Isaiah 60:18-22 - - Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls salvation, and thy gates praise.  The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the Lord shall be unto thee everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.  The sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself.- for the Lord shall be thy everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.  Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.  A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time.

Zephaniah 3:16-20 -- In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing.  I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden. Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.  At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all the people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the Lord.

Matthew 13:43 - - Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father

Revelation 3:12 - - Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall no more go out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

Revelation 22:1-5, 13, 14, 16-21 - - And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.  In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.  And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and His servants shall serve Him.  And they shall see His face; and His name shall be in their foreheads.  And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.  Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.  I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.  I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. And the Spirit and the bride say, Come.  Let him that heareth say, Come.  And let him that is athirst come.  And whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely.  For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book.  And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly.  Amen.  Even so, come, Lord Jesus.  The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.  Amen.

This concludes my own personal observations of Bible prophecy.  These are my own opinions and are not to be construed as "Revelations from God." The purpose of this book is to build your faith in Jesus Christ and to cause you to be a fully devoted follower of Him.  If you do not have a personal relationship with Jesus, it is my prayer that you will repent of your sins and ask Him into your heart.  I believe Jesus is the Son of God, that he died for my sins, and that God raised Him from the dead.  Bible prophecy was written so that we could know God.  Since the first prophecies were written, men have tried to predict the future instead of trying to get to know whom Jesus Christ is.  Jesus is God!
 

THE END.

PREPARE FOR YOUR FINALS, READ THE BIBLE.
IT IS VIRTUAL GOD.
