END TIMES | THE BINDING OF SATAN
1. End Times
a) Many people are fascinated with thinking and studying about the end times. The study of Eschatology (or end times) is a very large subject. Deep down inside all of us we long to know what is next or what happens after this life.
b) If you have ever attended a funeral service for anyone you probably asked yourself this question. In fact, contemplation of what happens after this life will often lead someone to search their own faith and belief system. For us, it lead to making a decision to follow Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord. He is the only answer that makes any sense in our mind.
c) The Bible tells us much about not only Jesus but how this world will one day end. Major events like judgment, tribulation, abomination that leads to desolation, the rapture (or to be "caught up" according to Thessalonians), and the millennium will occur one day.

2. The Binding Of Satan
Revelation 20:1-3
Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain. And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while.
