4. The Millennial Covenant

As three distinct categories of people live into the earth’s millennial age, they experience lesser and greater covenant blessings and divine empowerment. Their categories correspond with three spiritual levels:

  1. Zion/Jerusalem—people who keep the terms of the Sinai Covenant.
  2. God’s Sons/Servants—persons who keep the terms of the Davidic Covenant on behalf of themselves and their dependents.
  3. Seraphs/Saviors—individuals who keep the terms of the Abrahamic Covenant, many of whom are translated beings.

The covenant God makes at that time incorporates the positive features of all former covenants. Like the Sinai Covenant, it is a collective covenant—made with a new, end-time nation of his people. Unlike the Sinai Covenant, however, it is an unconditional covenant—made with those who prove loyal in keeping the terms of the Davidic Covenant, the higher covenant they operate under. The world’s wicked inhabitants, on the other hand—those who fail to repent of doing evil after being warned—entirely perish from the earth.

In God’s Millennial Covenant, the blessings of a promised land, enduring offspring, and God’s protection that are common to each of his covenants are transformed into:

  1. A promised land that is endowed with a paradisiacal glory as in the days of Adam and Eve.
  2. An enduring offspring that is imbued with God’s Holy Spirit as in his covenant with the Levites.
  3. Physical protection through God’s being personally present with his people.
  4. A covenant made after a cataclysmic destruction on the scale of the Flood.
Isaiah 54:2–3

Expand the site of your tent;
extend the canopies of your dwellings.
Do not hold back; lengthen your cords
and strengthen your stakes.
For you shall spread abroad
to the right and to the left;
your offspring shall dispossess the nations
and resettle the desolate cities.

Isaiah 54:9–10

This is to me as in the days of Noah,
when I swore that the waters of Noah
would no more flood the earth.
So I swear to have no more anger toward you,
never again to rebuke you.
For the mountains shall be removed
and the hills collapse with shaking,
but my charity toward you shall never be removed,
nor my covenant of peace be shaken,
says Jehovah, who has compassion on you.

Isaiah 59:21

This is my covenant with them, says Jehovah:
My Spirit which is upon you
and my words which I have placed in your mouth
shall not depart from your mouth,
nor from the mouth of your offspring,
nor from the mouth of their offspring, says Jehovah,
from now on and forever.

Isaiah 60:17–18

I will make peace your rulers
and righteousness your oppressors:
tyranny shall no more be heard of in your land,
nor dispossession or disaster within your borders;
you will regard salvation as your walls
and homage as your gates.

Isaiah 65:25

The wolf and the lamb will graze alike,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox;
as for the serpent, dust shall be its food:
there shall be no harm or injury done
throughout my holy mountain, says Jehovah.

Isaiah 12:4–6

In that day you will say,
Give thanks to Jehovah; invoke his name.
Make known his deeds among the nations;
commemorate his exalted name.
Sing in praise of Jehovah,
who has performed wonders;
let it be acknowledged throughout the earth!
Shout and sing for joy, O inhabitants of Zion,
for renowned among you is the Holy One of Israel.
