There is a lot of eschatological "noise" on social media and alternative news about the so-called "Little Season" of Satan, and whether or not we are currently in it.

The Little Season theory essentially states that we are in a Post-millennial period between the 1000-year Kingdon of Jesus and the Great White Throne of Judgement. Revelation chapter 20 states that after the Armageddon scenario, Satan is imprisoned for the 1000-year Millenial reign of Jesus. After which, he is released for a "little season" to gather the nations to overthrow Jesus in Jerusalem. According to this theory, we are in that season right now!

This means that the rapture, the Tribulation, Armageddon, the Second Coming of Jesus, and the 1000-year Kingdom have ALREADY HAPPENED!!

The proof point promoted by people who espouse this theory is the advanced "Tartarian" architecture that we see remnants of around the world. This apparently speaks to an advanced civilization with extraordinary technological know-how that vanished no more than a few hundred years ago. According to them, this abandoned technology proves that Jesus ruled over an advanced society in the recent past (and then He apparently just abandoned it...and us).

But does the Little Season and Tartaria fit Biblically, historically, and logically? The answer is a resounding NO! A mere cursory examination of this theory shows that it is utterly ludicrous! So why is it being promoted so vigorously? I was puzzled by this until I noticed that the promoters of this theory, tended to also hold to another long-held and equally poor eschatological theology. And the Little Season is their latest attempt to justify their bankrupt beliefs.

I break it all down in this special episode of Faith By Reason

"The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to Him to show His servants things which will quickly come to pass". Those words are how we began this incredible journey through the Book of Revelation. And now, 60 episodes later, we are ending our exploration of this amazing and provocative book, with this conclusory episode.

Over the next hour, I summarize everything we've learned during this study, and I end it with the final salutation from Chapter 22

Believers in Jesus will spend eternity in the presence of God. That sounds great, but what will we be DOING for eternity? The Bible (and most Bible teachers) seemingly treat this important subject in a rather vague manner. However, if we look at the big-picture details of God's will, our purpose in eternity is actually pretty easy to see

Believers in Jesus will spend eternity on a new Earth, inhabiting a New Jerusalem. But what will this new existence be like? Why is the New Jerusalem constructed the way it is? What are the characteristics of the new Earth?

We’ll talk about it in this week’s episode

Heaven is the eternal state that we all long for. Even those who are not Christians, still acknowledge the desire to be rewarded for the good they have done on earth and spend an eternity in perfection.

The concept of Heaven is ALMOST as ubiquitous as the concept of Hell. It is a part of our popular culture. And as such, it is the subject of as much (or more) mythology than truth. In this episode, we will explore 10 popular myths about Heaven, and look at the Biblical truths that address or dispel the myths.

Hell, aka the Lake that burns with fire and brimstone, will certainly be hot. But it will NOT be the hottest place in eternity. There is a place that will logically, scientifically, and Biblically be hotter. That place is HEAVEN!!

How can Heaven be hotter than Hell, and what is the true nature of the torment that those in Hell will experience? We'll talk about it on this week's episode.

The concept of Hell is not only a foundational doctrine of Christianity, it is readily accepted by most religions to some degree, and even by those who claim to be atheists. The reason for this is that EVERYONE believes in justice, and that is ultimately what Hell is all about.

But whenever a doctrinal concept becomes a part of popular culture, it becomes rife with myths and false narratives. In this episode, we examine what Hell is and just as importantly, what it is NOT.

The "Millennium" represents the 7th so-called "dispensation" - an era in which God deals with humanity under specified circumstances to show that His plan for our redemption is the only one that will work.

During the Millennium, mankind will have everything they CLAIM they have wanted from the beginning to be happy - perfect peace, perfect government, perfect provision, perfect community, and perfect justice. AND PEOPLE WILL ABSOLUTELY HATE IT!!!!!!

What is the purpose of the Millennium (and all the dispensations for that matter), and why will the Millennium prove once and for all that humanity will NEVER choose to be like God on their own, no matter what the external circumstances may be? We will explore these questions on this week's episode.

The Millennium will be 1000 years of Jesus physically ruing the world from His throne in Jerusalem. It is the Kingdom that God promised Abraham. The Kingdom that the Jews have been waiting for since the Old Testament times. It will be a time of perfect peace and provision. One of the most significant periods of human history. Yet there are several so-called Christian groups that refuse to take this period literally, despite the Bible making it blatantly clear.

What is the Millennium, and what will it be like? We discuss it on this week's episode

The Gog and Magog conflict in Ezekiel 38 and 39 is one of the most documented events in all of eschatology. It is an end-times event in which a coalition of nations led by an entity called "Gog" invades a peaceful Israel to take plunder but they are thoroughly defeated by Jehovah. Most commentators believe that this battle pits a Russian-led army against Israel, but this point of view focuses mostly on the physical and ignored the more important spiritual aspects. A careful examination of scripture (and logic) disputes the Russian angle.

When does this event take place and how is it positioned in relation to the events of Revelation? We discuss this topic on this week's episode.
