Not Victims - Victors

The millennial reign (thousand years) is seen to be from heaven, including those on earth who have experienced the first resurrection (spiritual new birth), and another expression of the fact that we are presently More Than Conquerors as we suffer through the tribulation battle with patience as our Lord's Kingdom is at hand and expanding. We see that Christians not only reign over the power of sin and death during the Church Age (thousand years), but when Satan is loosed at the end for a short time, the retelling of the Battle of Armageddon (through the symbols of Gog and Magog) is swift destruction and total eternal victory for Christians. Another reminder of how blessed we are to be on the winning side of the Lamb of God! We thus must learn to look on earth as we walk upon it from our present reality of heavenly victory in Christ, conquering and to conquer for we are indeed More Than Conquerors.
