The Holy Spirit and Eschatology

The regeneration, conversion, sanctification, and glorification of all of God’s elect people is accomplished by the working of the Spirit of God imparting the precious grace of Christ to them which accomplishes all His eternal purposes towards them in regard to their salvation. This is all done in accordance with His divine predestination and foreknowledge. We are saved at the time of His appointment, and His good Providence ordains all the circumstances. Known unto God are all of His works from the foundation of the world. We have been studying the doctrine of election, and describing it as God’s having chosen of a great number of people, from all eternity, in the Covenant of Redemption made between the Father and the Son, made before time began; a certain number whom God would save, and give unto them, eternal life and blessing. We have seen that God saves His elect people one at a time, but that He is not constrained to save them one at a time. He can save whole families at a time. And He can even save whole nations at the time of His choosing, according to His eternal purposes. This is something that the Scriptures clearly tell us will take place in the time of the Latter-Day glory of the Church, or what is called in the book of Revelation, “the Thousand Years”. I am speaking now of the Millennium, that glorious time of blessing which God has purposed will occur before Christ’s Second Coming, and not after it. I am well aware that most Christians of our own day are either Premillennial or Amillennial in their views of eschatology, but for all are serious students of the Bible I would ask you to look plainly at the Bible and reconsider.
