1. God keeps his promises and word.

God made very specific promises to the descendents of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Promises of blessings for obedience and cursing for disobedience, during the Millennium Israel is blessed for obedience fulfilling God’s promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

2. God rewards his people.

The millennium is also a period when God will reward his saints, both Old and New Testament with positions of authority over a millennial kingdom. Christ will reign as King, while the saints will reign with Him over the nations. The twelve disciples will rule over the twelve tribes of Israel, while some may rule over cities as reward for a faithful service in the physical body.

3. God demonstrates his righteousness.

In the Millennium, humanity will have every need physically met and will lack for nothing. Despite this, in the end when given the option, a significant portion born during the Millennium will reject the Lord God. Those who choose the Lord will show people do not choose or reject God based on outward circumstance, but inward character. (See Job)

4. More people for eternity.

Since Adam’s fall, the earth has been under a curse. Humanity has died, and creation has been hostile to man’s survival. This changes in the millennium, creation harmonizes with humanity. Death and sin are rare and the population of the earth explodes to unprecedented levels. At the end of the millennium, Satan, who is released from his prison, tests those born. They who reject Satan, pass the test enter eternity with Christ and the saints in the New Jerusalem. Those who reject the millennium blessings, and turn against God join the faithless of creation, including the fallen from Adam’s fall to Armageddon.



The Covenants fulfilled

During the Millennium, the covenants; The Abrahamic, Canaan/Palestine/Israeli, Davidic and New Covenants will be fulfilled literally. God operates according to His word. God from the fall spoke through prophets to fallen man. God made promises of redemption, only to be fulfilled in literal Israel. Israel’s rejection of Messiah, placed their fulfillment on hold. Israel’s obedience and acceptance of Messiah, Jesus Christ reinstates Israel, and allows God to fulfill his promise to their descendents.

For this reason, Paul alludes to the Gentiles blessing in Israel’s fall, but promises an even greater blessing in their restoration.

15 For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? Romans 11:15

Paul says, “Life from the dead” referring to the resurrection. When Israel accepts Christ, the time of resurrection is at hand. God will then fulfill his promises of obedience to Israel made in the covenants during the time of the prophets, postponed at time Messiah was “Cut off”.
