That will be what victory that will be is glad we sing in the Palace of the King for day oh victory that will be Here now is H m s Richards. The voice of prophecy speaker is subject into the silent planet. We call this earth the silent planet, as did CS Lewis. The setting, however is not same time according to the prophecies of scripture. The time is coming when this earth will be absolutely silent at the present time. Man is making such a big noise, especially in our urban civilization, that it's feared that within a few years it'll be utterly impossible for a man to live in our planet, centers of population. It's a menace now and eventually the noise will become destructive unless something's done about it. The whole history of man has been a history of noise, a history of words, of wrath and war. But a quiet time is coming. Yes, real quiet. The time is coming when this earth will be quiet because there will be no one here. It'll be silent, empty. It'll be the silent planet. To be sure of the certainty of this statement, let us turn to the 20th chapter, the book of Revelation and read the first few verses and I saw an angel come down from heaven having the key of the bottomless pit and the great chain in his hand, and he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil and Satan and bound him a thousand years and cast him into the bottomless pit and shut him up and set a seal upon him that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years should be fulfilled. After that, he must be loose a little season. The fulfillment of this prophecy takes place in connection with the second come of Christ, an event that cannot be far in the future. We believe, by the way, we ask the question, what is the bottom of pit? The word is translated from the Greek abysses or abyss. The standard dictionary defines abyss as primal chaos. We read that in the beginning the earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep or the abyss. Genesis one, verse two, in this abtu agent, our Greek version of the Old Testament, the word abyss as used here in Genesis one, two is exactly the same as that used in Revelation 20 verse one, which we've just read, translated bottomless pit, will the earth again be in the condition? Described in Genesis, the first chapter and Jeremiah the fourth chapter, let us read this last passage. I beheld the earth and Lord was without form and void in the heavens and they had no light. That's the same condition that we read about in Genesis. I beheld the mountains and lo they trembled. All the heels moved lightly. I beheld and lo there was no man. Next verse, I be held in lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness and all the cities there all were broken down at the presence of the Lord and by his fierce anger here the prophet is looking at this earth as it will be after the second come of Christ, the city's broken down at the presence of the Lord. The whole land shall be desperate. He says in verse 27, yet will I not make a full land? Think of a modern city. At that time a wilderness of shattered concrete, twisted steel, emptiness, loneliness, this earth itself then in its chaotic uninhabited condition or the prophet said there was no man is the bottomless pit or abyss in which Satan is bound for a thousand years. But why will the earth be a silent planet? Why will there be no man, no people here for a thousand years after Jesus comes? And how will Satan be bound? First of all, what is the work of Satan? Is it not to deceive the wicked and to attempt the righteous? What then would bind him? The answer of course is that the removing from his reach of both the wicked and the righteous would do it. Does that happen at the come of Christ? Certainly, yes. One Thessalonians four 16, the Lord himself descends from heaven, the Trump of God, the dead in Christ rise. Then we which are alive and remains as the apostle shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so in this way, shall we ever be with the Lord? All of God's people then will be taken from the earth. That's clear from the scripture. Jesus comes with his threefold glory with mighty power. What will the effect of this glory have upon the wicked hood alive? We read the answer in Revelation six 16. They cry for the mark rocks and mountains to hide them from his face. The great day of his wrath has come. They saying, who shall be able to stand now turn to Second Thessalonians of first chapter and the Lord is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels inflaming fire taking vengeance on them that no not God who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and the glory of his power. This leaves no man on the earth to be tempted by Satan who is thereby bound for a thousand years until the second resurrection takes place at the end of the thousand years. Revelation 20, beginning to read with the fourth verse, and I saw thrones and they sat up upon them and judgment was given unto them and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus and for the word of God in which had not worshiped the beast. Neither his image neither received his mark and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. But the rest of the dead, that's the wicked lived not again until a thousand years were finished. So this period is bounded on each end by a resurrection. Remember Jesus said that there were to be two resurrections, John 5, 28 and 29. He said, the hours coming when the dead shall come forth from their graves. They that have done good under the resurrection of life. Notice he mentions that first and they that have done evil under the resurrection of damn nation. Two resurrections. The apostle Paul has the same idea and gives it to us in Acts 24 15. There shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and of the unjust two resurrections. But it's left to the prophecy of revelation to place these two resurrections 1000 years apart. So the earth is empty during the thousand years blessed and hol as he that has in the first resurrection. Now I'm reading back in Revelation 20 again, verse six, on such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ and shall reign with him a thousand years. They reign as priests. They reign in judgment. When the thousand years are expired, Satan is loosed out of his prison, the second resurrection that of the wicked takes place and that loosens him. He's able to go forth and deceive them. The chains of his isolation are broken. Satan is loosed by the resurrection of the wicked dead for a little season. He goes forth to deceive the nations. He gathers them together whose number is as the sand of a sea. They surround the city of God, which is prepared as a bride, adorn for a husband. Revelation 21, 2. It has descended out of heaven from God to this earth and now it is surrounded by all the hosts of evil of all ages. Satan himself leading them here. The human race meets for the first and last time as fire comes down from God out of heaven and devours them. Revelation 20 verse nine. This is the end of sin and sinners here in the city are the redeemed outside. Were the lost. The city floats as it were upon a sea of fire as the ark floated on a sea of water. After the first flood, the new earth was brought forth with Noah as the head of it and now a new earth comes forth before the admiring eyes of the redeemed in Christ is the head of it. Behold, I make all things new. Revelation 21 verse five, and now out of the formally silent planet comes a new sound. A sound of the redeemed into the silent planet came the new city and now it becomes the home of God's redeem forever. The song of joy that can be heard in all God's creation. Isaiah 35 10 and the ransom to the Lord shall return and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads. They shall obtain joy in gladness and sorrow and sang shall flee away. This is a real new world. This world made over regenerated the restitution of all things spoken by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began. Acts 3 21. It is a new heaven to the new earth wherein one of the righteousness. Second Peter three 13, and here are three things which are promised to God's people. Behold, I create new heavens and a new earth and the former shall not be remembered nor coming to mind. Isaiah 65 17, no sorrow or distress will be there. Out of the silent planet comes the kingdom of God. Then God's people find the complete fulfillment of their prayer. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven. This is the time of which Jesus said, come you blessed of my father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Matthew 25 34. During the last generation, a member of parliament who was a Christian grieved to see the suffering of so many people and finally he tacked up a notice throughout the village, which was the center of his greatest estates at 10 or 12 days in the future in which he wished to meet all his tenants. He wished them to gather together. The notice read Lord C will be present with his steward in his office in the village between the hours of nine and 12 and Tuesday the 14th Instant will then and there pay freely all the accounts and debts to whomsoever do of any of these tenants. To avail themselves of this off, applicants must present their accounts in the form of separate bills containing the exact statement of the amount and nature of the debt owing. You can imagine the excitement and the people gathering everywhere. Hundreds came on the day, but they were all afraid to go in some way. They just didn't believe it. They saw Lord C go into the office with his steward. An old gentleman, an old lady believed it enough to go in. He paid all their debts, gave them a check for everything. They did not allow them to go out. The people outside were waiting for them to come out, see whether or not they wanted to go in, but he kept them in until the hour of one o'clock. When the time was up just at that hour, they went out and they said, did he pay it? Certainly he paid it off. Well then we'll go in, but it was too late then Those had their debts paid. Who believed what the man had said? My friends do. We believe what God has said. Let us remember now as the accepted time. Behold, now is the day of salvation. Let us go in now and someday by God's grace, we will have a part in that song of redemption, which comes out of the silent planet. God's glory forever. All to Jesus, all to and Him in His to Jesus For take me, Jesus, take me Now. This is Orva Iverson of the voice of prophecy saying, if you are discouraged, look up. God leads us forward in faith.
