The wicked will watch in horror as the graves burst open with explosive power and the saints of all ages come forth in eternal life to join the living remnant. The remnant will be clothed in incorruption and the great hour of fellowship will begin. God will have set a table before His elect in the presence of their enemies.

A soon as the saints have enjoyed the first wonder of the eternal fellowship, the entire group—perhaps outnumbering the inhabitants of the earth at that time—will rise to meet the Lord in the air.

The wrath of God will be poured out, under the direction of the saints, upon the wicked of the earth. Then the Lord and His army of righteous ones will descend in thunderous fury upon earth's armies, ready to deliver Israel from the surrounding armies.

Antichrist and his armies will be boxed in on the east and north by the Lord's armies riding through the dried-up bed of the Euphrates River. The Mediterranean Sea, now turned to blood, will cut them off on the west.

Perhaps Christ and His chief officers will leave the Mount of Olives and ride through the valley opened by the great earthquake, enabling them to confront Antichrist on the south.

And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. (Zechariah 14:4)

The blood will run for 200 miles to the height of a horse's bridle.

Antichrist and the False Prophet will be hurled in their bodies into the Lake of Fire (the physical and spirit realms will have converged by that time). One angel will bind Satan and cast him into the bottomless pit.

Christ will proceed to the Temple Mount, there to be crowned King of all the earth. Multitudes of His faithful saints will attend the coronation. Jesus now will face His own people, Israel, and they will realize that He whom they crucified is the true Son of David, Christ of God.

Meanwhile, the clamor of wickedness will be stilled and a mantle of quietness will cover the earth.

The singing of birds will be heard as the morning of the Day of the Lord begins. The nations left on the earth will come to Jerusalem to learn the righteous ways of the Lord. There they will find members of the royal priesthood who are ready to return with them and help them to live peacefully in the new world of righteousness.

The Spirit and the Bride say to all nations, "Come, and drink of the water of life freely."

Whosoever desires to may come and partake of the Life of God.

A few more patient steps of obedience, and then a new world of glory and beauty beyond the mind of man to imagine.
