Chapter 5: Countdown To 6000
It is indicated in the bible that the history of the descendants of Adam living on the Earth will last for six thousand years, followed by 1000 years of peace under the rule of Jesus Christ. Through the calculation of the ages of the biblical patriarch's we can determine that there were 2000 years from the creation of Adam to the call of Abraham, and 2000 years from the call of Abraham until the time that Jesus began his ministry. This indicates that there will be another period of 2000 years from the time of the ministry of Jesus until his second coming. The sum of the three 2000 year time periods will be 6000 years. As we approach the year 2000 many preachers and prophecy students are teaching that the 6000 years are almost finished and that Christ will return on or before the year 2000. They have overlooked the fact that our calendar is in error by about 30 years because it was set back to zero on the year that Christ was born, rather than on the year that he began his ministry. Biblical researchers have also discovered that the first 4000 years of history were not completed until the day Christ was baptized in the Jordan river by John the Baptist. The scriptures state that Jesus was about thirty years old at this time. Luke 3:21-23 When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased." Now Jesus himself was about thirty years old when he began his ministry. Thirty is the age that God has determined as the time when a man is both learned and experienced enough to enter into the service of the Lord as a priest or a king. Genesis 41:46 Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 2 Samuel 5:4 David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years. The first 4000 years were not completed until the moment that Christ was baptized by John at thirty years of age. If Christ was born in 4 BC, then the 6000 years will not be completed until about 2026. The year 2000 on our calendar is really only the year 1970. When the year 2000 arrives we will only have achieved 5,970 years of human history, not 6000. We will still have about 30 more years before the 6000 years are completed. 2 Peter 3:2-4 & 8-9 I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles. First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? ever since our fathers died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation." But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. Notice the clue that Peter gives us, that a day is to the Lord like a thousand years. These future scoffers will forget that we are counting time on the Roman calendar, which is about 30 years ahead of God's calendar. God's calendar for human events began on the day and the hour that he created Adam. One of the keys to understanding the bible in general, and prophecy in particular, is to understand that God is a mathematical God. Throughout the bible he constantly uses the same numbers and number combinations to symbolize various themes. The numbers six, seven, and eight are frequently used by God to represent prophetic themes. The number seven, in the bible, symbolizes completeness and perfection. This is the reason why seven has been considered a lucky number for thousands of years. Seven days makes a complete week, and seven thousand years will complete one heavenly week, a week made up of seven one thousand year days. There are more occurrences of the number seven in the bible than any other number. The number six is the number that symbolizes imperfection and incompleteness, because it is one less than the perfect number, seven. Man was created on the sixth day, and his history before the return of Christ will last for six thousand years. The number eight in the bible symbolizes new beginnings. After the heavenly week of seven thousand years is completed, the eighth day will begin, which will be eternity. Throughout the bible, God gives us clues that the present world as we know it, will last for seven thousand years. The last one thousand years will be the heavenly Sabbath day, one thousand years of peace under the rule of Jesus Christ, followed by the eighth day, the new creation. Psalms 90:4 KJV For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. The book of Jubilees also states that one day in heaven is like a thousand years. (Jubilees is an ancient Jewish rabbinical history book) Jubilees 4:28-29 And Adam died, and he lacked seventy years from one thousand years, for a thousand years are like one day in the testimony of heaven. And therefore it was written concerning the tree of knowledge: "On the day which you eat of it you will die." And for this reason he did not complete the years of this day, for in it he died. Paul had a partner in preaching the gospel named Barnabas. He also wrote a book known as "the Epistle of Barnabas." This book was read in the early churches and used as a tool to assist in understanding the scriptures. Although this book is not a part of the bible, it is useful because it takes us back to the early days of the church and shows us what was being taught about prophecy while the apostles were still alive. Barnabas 23:1-6 "Furthermore, it is written concerning the Sabbath, in the Ten Commandments, which God spoke on Mount Sinai to Moses, face to face; Sanctify the Sabbath of the Lord with pure hands and a clean heart. And elsewhere he said; If your children shall keep my Sabbaths, then will I put my of the Sabbath. And God made in six days the works of his hands; and he finished them on the seventh day, and he rested on the seventh day, and he sanctified it. Consider, my children, what that signifies. He finished them in six days. The meaning of it is this; that in six thousand years the Lord God will bring all things to an end. For with him one day is as a thousand years; as he himself testifies, saying, Behold this day shall be as a thousand years. Therefore, children, in six days, that is, in six thousand years, shall all things be accomplished. And what is it that he said, and he rested the seventh day: he means this; that when his Son shall come, and abolish the season of the Wicked One, and judge the ungodly; and shall change the sun and the moon, and the stars; then he shall gloriously rest in that seventh day." Barnabas goes on to say in his book, that following the one thousand year heavenly Sabbath, the eighth day, the new world will begin. God also gives us another clue in the bible that the world will go on as normal for six thousand years when he states that the punishment of the Jews for rejecting Christ will last for two thousand years. Hosea 5:14-15 "For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a great lion to Judah. I will tear them to pieces and go away; I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them. Then I will go back to my place until they admit their guilt. And they will seek my face; in their misery they will earnestly seek me." The preceding verses are referring to God's dealings with the Jews after they rejected Christ. Notice in Hosea 5:15 he says that he will go back to his place. This happened when Christ ascended to sit at the right hand of the father after being raised from the dead, he went back to his place, heaven. Mark 16:19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. He will not return until the time comes when the Jews admit their guilt in rejecting their Messiah, and seek Christ. Hosea 6:1 & 2 "Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds. After two days, he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence." At some time in the future, after two heavenly days, two thousand years have passed, God will open the eyes of the Jews and they will recognize Jesus Christ as their Messiah. We know from history that Christ did not return forty eight hours after he ascended to heaven, so this verse must be referring to two heavenly days of one thousand years each. Notice also that it says that on the third day they will live in his presence. This is a reference to the Millennium, when Christ will reign on Earth. Four thousand years had already passed when Christ began his ministry, so the beginning of the third day from the time that Jesus returned to heaven, and the beginning of the seventh day from the creation of Adam, will occur at the same time. Both are references to the heavenly seventh day, God's Sabbath, the Millennium. God has decreed in his word that the Jews punishment for rejecting Christ will last for two thousand years. They will not see Christ again until they say, "blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord." Luke 13:34-35 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, `Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord.'" Many Christian churches have taught down through the centuries that God has rejected the Jews forever. The bible declares that the time of their punishment is only temporary, and that someday God will renew his dealings with the Jews. Luke 21:24 "They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled." Romans 11:25 "I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in." Paul doesn't want anyone to be ignorant on this subject, so he states it clearly, part of Israel, the Jews in particular, have had their hearts hardened, until God is finished dealing with the gentiles. Paul understood clearly that the times of the gentiles would eventually come to and end, and he warns the gentiles not to become conceited because God was at the present time dealing with them like he had dealt with the Jews for the previous two thousand years. Romans 11:17-22 "If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not boast over those branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say, 'the branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.' Granted, but they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid. For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either. Consider, therefore, the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. The time period known in the scriptures as the "times of the gentiles" is commonly called the "church age" by those who study prophecy. According to the book of Revelation, there will be one thousand years, a heavenly Sabbath day, when the "church age" ends, after the first resurrection. The resurrection of the dead is sometimes referred to as "the rapture." In this study we will refer to that event as "the first resurrection," because that is what it is called in the book of Revelation. Revelation 20:6 "Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years." God clearly states that there will be a special one thousand year time period after the first resurrection. This again ties in perfectly with the teaching that there will be six thousand years of peace under the rule of Jesus Christ, and this will be followed by the eighth day, eternity, and the new creation of heaven and Earth. This one thousand year time period is commonly known as the "Millennium."

Seven thousand years will complete one heavenly week. When the seven thousand years are completed, the eighth day will begin, which is eternity. Note: Saturday is the biblical Sabbath day. Sunday is the first day of the Roman week. Additional note: The 7000 year theory of God's program for mankind does not mean that the Earth and the universe are only 6000 years old. The Earth and the universe may be millions or billions of years old, as they were created "in the beginning." The Lord created and placed human life, descended from Adam and his wife, on Earth about 6000 years ago. Also, When the Apostle Paul and all of the New Testament writers proclaimed that the were in “The Last Days” during those times, they were not exaggerating or lying. When Christ was baptized, after 4000 years of human history had transpired, we truly were in the “last Days,” the last days being the last two days, Thursday and Friday of the heavenly week, to be followed by the heavenly Sabbath, known as “The Millennium.” That the term “Last Days” means more than one day is evident by the fact that it is plural, “days” instead of “day.” So, the term “Last Days” when we read it in the bible pertains to the entire 2000 year time period from the beginning of Jesus’ ministry until he returns and the Millennium begins. Once that is clearly understood it assists us in understanding the scriptures. |
