I have been massively encouraged this week studying Revelation 20 for Wed evening. It is easy to get bogged down in the debate about the millennium and miss the gospel.
Something taken from us: we don't have to expereince the second death (Hell).
Something given to us: we will reign and judge with Christ as priests (imputed righteousness!).
So that we can have Christ Himself!
What Christ saved us from: the second death and lake of fire.
What Christ saved us to: reign and judge with Him.
What Christ saved us for: Himself.
Christ didn't just die to resue us from Hell (amazing as that is). Christ died so that we could enjoy all the blessings provided by His precious blood, greatest of which is the ability to be with Him.
