1000 years is next to godliness

Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

Take note of the purpose why we (kings of the earth) are washed from our sins from his own blood.

Revelation 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

We are made kings and priests to whom? It seems that we have a new title and a divine obligation here.

As a preacher of the gospel of Christ, we have this main arsenal.

Revelation 1:3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

The next verse is a stunning revelation and very complicated.

1 Timothy 4:8 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

Are there still ungodly in the life which is to come?

Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Within 1000 years, as priests of God, we will use the scripture as the basis of teaching the still ungodly.

If I die at the age of 70 for example, and be part of the first resurrection, and will reign as priests of God and of Christ for 1000 years, truly, godliness is profitable on the life that which is to come.

1000 years really is next to godliness but Satan is next to 1000 years.

Revelation 20:7-10 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
