We conclude Lesson 51 by examining John’s description of how Babylon at the end times will be destroyed by God. While the evil earth dwellers mourn the loss of Babylon, they are aware that Yahweh is the One judging Babylon. In heaven, there is a different reaction—one of celebration for Yahweh has judged evil. We also see that Revelation’s description of Babylon’s destruction is not the first time God has described it. The prophets Isaiah and Jeremiah have also recorded prophecies of Babylon’s destruction at the end times. Then we see in heaven, the prelude to the second coming of Christ. We see that the church, the bride of Christ, has prepared herself to return with Jesus to the earth. Jesus then comes back with His church, as well as His angels. On earth, there is the great battle at the place called Armageddon. The Antichrist, the false prophet and their evil forces who are attempting to fight Jesus will be destroyed by Him rapidly. And then Jesus judges the survivors of the Tribulation. He judges the mortal Jewish survivors, dividing them into two groups: those who reject Him and those who have come to faith in Messiah. Those who reject Him are removed from the earth, leaving only the believing mortal Jews who will then form believing national Israel. They will get to enjoy the Kingdom of God with their King. Likewise, Jesus will also judge the surviving mortal Gentiles. The Gentiles who reject Him, He will remove from the earth and the Gentiles who have come to faith in Christ will be allowed into the Kingdom. Thus the Kingdom of God will begin on earth with believing mortals and the returning resurrected believers. Access the notes at: https://interlocked.online/s/51-The-Kingdom-of-Man-Destroyed.pdf
