Revelation:20:1-6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And I saw an angel descending from heaven ,
who had the key of the abyss ,
and a great chain in his hand .
*
And he laid hold on the dragon ,
that old serpent ,
who is the Devil ,
and Satan ,
and bound him for a thousand years ;
*
and he cast him into the abyss ,
and shut him down ,
and set a seal upon him ,
that he might not deceive the nations any more ,
till the thousand years were accomplished ;
and then he must be loosed again for a little time .
*
And I saw thrones ,
and they sat upon them ,
and judgment was given to them-even the souls of them who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus ,
and for the word of God ,
and who had not worshiped the beast ,
nor his image ,
and had not received his mark on their foreheads ,
and upon their hands ;
and they lived ,
and reigned with Christ a thousand years :
*
but the rest of the dead revived not till the thousand years were accomplished :
this is the first resurrection .
*
Happy and holy is he who has a part in the first resurrection !
on such ,
the second death shall have no power ;
but they shall be the priests of God ,
and of Christ :
and they shall reign with him a thousand years .
