Is the thousand-year reign of Christ the final state of God's plan?
The thousand-year reign is not the final state; it serves as the introduction to the eternal. When the thousand years run their course, the planet as we now know it, likened to the Garden of Eden situation, will be destroyed, giving way to the eternal state.
Les explains that the thousand-year reign of Christ, delineated in Revelation as a thousand years, is not the final state but the introduction to the eternal. After the thousand years have run their course on the planet as we now know it—back in the Garden of Eden situation—it too will be destroyed. Christ will set up His own glorious kingdom, and His power will be absolute and total. The kingdoms of this world will become the kingdoms of our Lord and His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever.
