Bible Seeds: Many people have experienced rain, lightning and thunder. And we have ofen counted the seconds between the lightning flash and sound of thunder, although they are not always the same amount of time but thunder consistently follows the flash of lightning.
So Jesus Christ's, lightning victory, was real over death! Satan lost control of this world because many of the Christians became "the great opposition" to those who did the deeds of the Devil. "The good news of the gospel" was presented and "salvation offered" to those who would believe in God the Father, Jesus His Son, and the Holy Spirit!
We are now living in the seconds between Jesus' lightning victory and God's Thunder, the time Jesus will return with His Saints to take possession of the world from Satan and throw him into the great abyss for a thousand years and destroy all his works!
