Title: What happens next?
Post by: Lupac on January 18, 2010, 10:40:12 PM: I figured I'd take a break from the constant worry and fear my mind goes through, to discuss something else. I understand that the overcome-ers will reign with Christ, while the rest will have to wait to be judged. My question is, what happens after that? Does the Bible give any indication as to what will happen once God is "all in all"? (1 Cor. 15:28) Mainstream Christendom seems to think we will enter the realm of "eternity", which is scriptural, as it seems to imply we go into a unchanging and undoing state. Like we're in stasis or something. So, what do you think?

   Remember one thing, the order of events in God's timetable, regarding what he's made us aware of for the Future actually ends at 1Cor. Chapter 15 where it says " God is All in All " or as some translations put it: " God is Everything in Everything. " That of course includes Satan and all of this is the consummation of the Ages, as we know. Some have erroneously concluded that the Book of Revelation lists the end of all Scriptural events, but 1 Cor. chapter fifteen, in the sequence of events is last. Beyond that, I will not venture to speculate, as that can lead to futile debates. I remember, as a former JW, people stumbling over things involving speculations on whats going to happen beyond what we clearly know.

   It would be better to build ones Faith now, in what we already know and petition God to help us overcome any stumbling blocks we currently have. I'm sure you understand what I mean.

   Kind Regards, Samson.

and with that, I'll close it. That's not what we're here for.
