Leaving Galilee, Jesus now heads toward Jerusalem where He will be crucified and raised from the dead. Along the way, He is questioned about divorce by the pharisees and provides valuable teachings on the priority and permanence of marriage. Even though His words are difficult to receive, He continues by teaching that His disciples should always be like children.
After the destruction of Babylon (Revelation 17 and 18), there is great praise in heaven. The vindication of the saints who were killed is now taking place as God brings destruction on the anti-Christ and his kingdom. Jesus is officially married to His church and then returns to DESTROY all of his enemies.
Looking at Revelation 20, we find that Jesus has returned in power and glory. He has restored the earth to a state of paradise like Adam had in the Garden in Eden. Satan and his demonic horde have been contained in the abyss for the full length of the reign of Jesus. This gives mankind the opportunity to benefit from the blessings of Jesus’s work of restoration.
