When Heaven Comes to Earth (7 of 8)
Series: Countdown to Armageddon
Pastor Jeff Schreve
Revelation 20:1-10
Well a surgeon and an architect and a politician were having a conversation and they were discussing amongst themselves which profession of the three was the oldest profession.

The truth of the matter is this: there will not be peace and prosperity and glory days until the Prince of Peace, the Lord Jesus Christ, comes to rule and reign on this earth. Now when Jesus taught His discipl ...
