Covenant of Peace: The Millennial Age
Scripture further describes what this Kingdom Age will be like. Isaiah
11:6-9 is quoted often to describe the 1,000 year period of peace:
“The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall
lie down with the young goat; the calf and the young lion and
the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. The cow
and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down
together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. And the
nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, and the weaned
child shall put his hand in the viper’s den. They shall not hurt
nor destroy in all My holy mountain: for the earth shall be full
of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.”
However, we must read the preceding Scriptures before these to
understand HOW it will happen: “But with righteousness He
(the Messiah) shall judge the poor, and reprove with equity for
the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod
of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the
wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and
faithfulness the girdle of his reins.”
This shows that Messiah must first bring righteous judgment before the
promised peace becomes a reality.
Even the current world system desires to have the type of peace that the
Bible describes the millennium will have, because the United Nations
building in New York has written above its doors the second half of
Isaiah 2:4 – “They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their
spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against
nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.” However, they
conveniently leave out the first half of this verse which shows the
method of HOW this peace will be brought about – “He (the Lord)
shall judge between the nations, and shall rebuke many people; THEN
They shall beat their swords into plowshares…”
Also, the peace described in this above Scripture will not come from
the U.N. building in New York. If you read the three verses (Isa. 2:1-3)
before the one quoted on the U.N. building, it will tell you exactly
where the government of true peace will be headquartered:
