"Puzzler"writesWhatis the ProperconceptionoftheMillennium asmentionedin(APoc.xx,I,10). IsthereanythinginthefourGospelswhichPointstoanyagreement withthereferencetothethousand years'ruleintheApocalypse? It so,isthereanythingintheOld Testamentwhichhasforeshadowed this?
InSt.Matthew,chapter24,it isstatedthatimmediatelyafter thetribulation,thesunshall be darkened,themoonshallfail to shedhislight,thestarswillfall fromheavenandtheheavenlypowersshallhemoved,andtheSouof ManwillsendHisangelwitha trumpettogathertogetherhiselectfromthefourwinds,etc.May Inottakethistomeanthatthe entirehumanracethenexisting willhekilledbeforetheyappearat thejudgmentseatofChrist?
