Chapter 20
Introduction

In this chapter we enter the Age of AQUARIUS and the King begins his reign:

  • Satan is bound for a thousand years.

  • The Elect are raised and transposed to Spirit to rule.

  • Yahusha the Water Bearer Mikveh’s the Earth to cleanse it from the Battle of the Ages (TAURUS thru PISCES).

  • Fallen humanity is destroyed along with the Dragon, the False Messiah, and the False Prophet.

  • The First Resurrection occurs as Yahusha builds the 3rd and Final Temple of Yahuah.

  • After a thousand years, Satan is released to deceive the nations, those deceived, and Gog and Magog are gathered against the Holy City. Fire comes down and devours them.

  • Satan is cast into the “lake of fire” forever coming under Yahuah’s judgment (fire).

The memory of those who lived and died during the 1,000-year reign are brought to judgement (raised from the dead).

 

TARURS - Great White Throne Judgment

In chapters 19 and 20, Yahusha fulfills the pictograph of TAURUS.

TAURUS

The conquering Ruler comes, the sublime vanquisher, to execute the great judgment, he is the ruling Shepherd King

We read in this chapter that two books are opened. The Book of the Dead and the Book of Life. This is called The Great White Throne judgment. This scene is the same as we witnessed in Chapter 19 where the judge takes his seat and the Heavens part “like a Scroll” and The Heavenly Scroll which contains the Book of the Dead and the Book of Life are opened.

Revelation 19
11 I saw Heaven (shamayim, The Heavenly Scroll/Mazzaroth) standing open (stars rolled back like a Scroll Revelation 6:14, Isaiah 34:4, Revelation 5) and there before me (written in The Heavenly Scroll that was opened) was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True (title Immanuel). With justice (Eternal Judge - 2 Corinthians 5:10, Acts 17:31. John 5:22,) he wages war and executes great judgment (TAURUS).

Then the two books are open and Yahusha begins judging the “living in covenant with him” and also those who remain dead in their works.

Revelation 20:11-15

Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence Earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them (as they parted like a Scroll to reveal the contents of the stars Revelation 19:11). 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books (of the dead) were opened (this is the ‘resurrection’, it is of their memory). Then another book was opened, which is the book of life (and their memory was “resurrected”). And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. 13 And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. 14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire (again, not literal. Death and Hades are not people any more than the False Prophet or Antichrist. All are false beliefs not real individuals). This is the second death, the lake of fire (judgement). 15 And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, his memory was thrown into the lake of fire (consumed by the Word of Yahuah the all-consuming fire).

 

The Book of the Dead is Opened

What happens when the Book of the Dead is opened? It is called the Book of the Dead because those whose names are written in that book are DEAD. They died. They are not brought back to life and resurrected in that sense. It is their memory written in the Book of the Dead that is raised in question of judgment. It is their works written in that book of “memories” that are judged by fire in one day not over the course of a life spent in hell for all eternity. These dead never live again, they do not receive the Crown of Eternal Life to live in Hell. It is on the day Yahuah judges the works of those who did not build their foundation on The Yahushaic Covenant.

Their works written in the Book of the Dead are judged then their life come under judgment by His Law and Yahuah issues the final death decree and they are not granted eternal life. They remain dead as they have ceased to exist at the first death of the body. They were not born again in their spirit, so they are not eternal in any way. They received the Second Death sentence issued in lieu of the Death Decrees in the Law and stay dead eternally. In other words, the Death Decrees justify their deaths, and they are not given life to live again. You cannot “dwell in eternal fires of hell” and this is not what Scripture teaches us …

Isaiah 33:14

The sinners in Zion are afraid (of death); trembling grips the ungodly: "Who of us can dwell with a consuming fire? Who of us can dwell with everlasting flames?"

No one. We see that Yahuah casts their works into the “fire” and their works are tested and judged not the person because they are dead, it is ONLY their memory that is “raised” as the Book of the Dead is read, and their life judged by His Law.

1 Corinthians 3

13 each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because their works will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is.

 

John 5
29 And the Bride will be revealed on Earth (PISCES and flow down into the streams of Living Water poured out from on High by AQUARIUS the Bearer of Living Water and Manna - Isaiah 44:3). Those (The Bride) who have been made ready (ARIES) by practicing Righteousness (Sanctified John 17:19) will be Resurrected (CAPRICORNUS) in order to live (death will ‘pass them over’ and enter into The Promised Land - CANCER); and those who have practiced wickedness will have the memory of their lives Resurrected in order to be Judged to justify their death (1 Corinthians 3:13).

The Bible uses “metaphors” we can understand to explain this day. They are not tormented by fire literally; their works are judged by the all-consuming fire of The Law of Yahuah.

Jeremiah 23:29

"Is not my word like fire," declares Yahuah

 

Jeremiah 5:14

Therefore this is what Yahuah God Almighty says: "Because the people have spoken these words, I will make my words in your mouth a fire and these people the wood it consumes.

Deuteronomy 4:24

For Yahuah your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.

 

Deuteronomy 9:3
But understand that today Yahuah your God goes across ahead of you as a consuming fire.

 

2 Samuel 22:9

Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire came from His mouth; glowing coals blazed forth.

 

Hebrews 12:29

for our "God is a consuming fire."

It is the metaphorical “smoke” or memory of that day that rises up to the throne of Yahuah for all eternity NOT the fires of “hell”. Revelation 14 should be properly understood of speaking of the time of torment during the “last days”. It is not speaking of an eternity in hell:

Revelation 14

9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with aloud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of Yahuah, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation (on them on Earth while they live). He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone (on Earth during The Great Tribulation) in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night (on Earth during The Great Tribulation), who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

 

The Book of Life is opened

But what happens when the Book of Life is opened? This is the part that give me chills. Those “living” in covenant with the Messiah, The Yahushaic Covenant, have their names read aloud by Yahusha to Yahuah and they are risen Divine, granted eternal life, and given crowns of authority to rule with him.

Matthew 10
32 Therefore everyone who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father in Heaven. 33 But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before my Father in Heaven.

 

Luke 12:8

I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of Yahuah.

 

Revelation 3:5

Like them, he who overcomes will be dressed in white. And I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels.

 

James 1:12
Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that Yahuah has promised to those who love him.

 

2 Timothy 4:8

From now on there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which Yahusha, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day--and not only to me, but to all who crave His appearing.

 

Revelation 2:10

Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor's crown.

 

Matthew 28:29

29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for the sake of My name will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.

 

If you are not born-again, you do not live again

You are not “raised from the dead” physically to go to “Heaven” or The Kingdom of God for judgement. Flesh and blood can never enter a Spiritual Realm where “Heaven/The Kingdom” resides.

1 Corinthians 15

45 So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being” the last Adam BECAME (by the power of the resurrection Romans 1:2-4 he did not preexist) a life-giving spirit. 46 The spiritual (body), however, was not first, but the natural (body), and then the spiritual (body). 47 The first man was of the dust of the Earth, but the second man is from what is written in The Heavenly Scroll... 49 And just as we have born the likeness of the Earthly man (according to the flesh which means opposed to, with no knowledge of Yahuah), so also shall we bear the likeness of the Heavenly man (and be just like Yahusha). 50 Now I Declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of Yahuah, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

 

John 3

6 That which is born of the flesh (human birth), is flesh (that includes Yahusha who was born “according to the flesh,” Romans 1:3); but that which is born of the Spirit, is Spirit (no such thing as a demi-god). 7 Do not be surprised that I said to you: You must be reborn from above to enter the Kingdom of God (Yahusha is speaking from experience being born-again when Mikveh’d by John).

 

John 18:36

Yahusha said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another realm."
