What Precedes Heaven

In today's sermon, Pastor Snook leads us in a study of Revelation 20, a chapter in God's Word that pulls back the curtain on the Millennium—a golden age we've all dreamed about but never experienced. This passage walks us through an astonishing timeline: from the church age we're living in right now, through the coming rapture and tribulation, to Christ's second coming when His feet will literally touch the Mount of Olives. But here's what makes Revelations 20 so gripping: Satan himself will be chained and thrown into the bottomless pit for a thousand years, removing one of our three great enemies (the world, the flesh, and the devil) from the equation. This isn't just ancient prophecy; it's a call to examine our own hearts today, to live with anticipation of Christ's return, and to share this hope with a world that desperately needs it.
