Christopher,
After the taking of the church to Heaven--the church will be evaluated at the Judgment Seat of Christ in Heaven. On earth there will be seven years of the Great Tribulation. After this Christ will return from Heaven with His saints [Rev. 19] and will destroy His enemies. At this point in time the church having returned to earth will inhabit the land of Israel where Christ will sit on His theocratic throne in Jerusalem. [Zechariah 14] The martyrs who died during the Great Tribulation will be with Christ coming from Heaven at the Second Coming of Christ. Those people sinners and saints who have not been beheaded during the Great Tribulation will enter into that 1,000 year reign of Jesus Christ. The people of the nations of the world will be commanded to come and worship Christ in Jerusalem. Some will rebel as noted in Zechariah 14 such as the land of Egypt who, are a part of other world religions. Judgment will be brought to bare as noted also in Zechariah. Hope this answers your question.
After the 1,000 reign of Christ there will be the resurrection of all the lost from all ages as noted in Rev. 20:5. Then comes the gathering together of all nations against Israel vs.8 and then the evaporating of the 'heavens and the earth.' as noted in II Peter 3:10. Then the Great White Throne Judgment and the beginning of the 'new heaven and the new earth and eternity.
Those of us who know Jesus have received everlasting life when we believed and have nothing but a wonderful eternity ahead, in Heaven then in the Kingdom Age {Millenimum} and into the 'new heaven and the new earth'--eternity.
Respectfully submitted,
Dr. Berrian
