Scripture states that when Christ returns to the earth to end the age and establish his millennial kingdom, then an angel will descend from heaven having the key to the Abyss and will seize Satan and thrown him into the Abyss. This is the part that you people ignore.
Actually Scripture does not say that at all. That is what you read into it quite falsely. We know that the binding of Satan occurred before Revelation 9 for his release as the Destroyer is described there. The same event is in mind in Rev 17.8.
There is no mention of a millennial kingdom on earth in Revelation, and indeed no mention of it anywhere in Scripture. Jesus, Paul and Peter knew nothing of it. So like Jesus we certainly ignore your fictitious millennium.
The Abyss is that place under the earth where those demons, collectively called Legion begged Jesus not to send them into.
Where does it say that it is 'under the earth'.? Your thinking is primitive. Spiritual beings could not be confined in an earthly 'place'. The Abyss, like Heaven is a spiritual sphere not of this dimension.
It is the same place where the beast, that angel of the Abyss, is currently restricted to until the sounding of the fifth trumpet where at that time he will be let out.
yes at the same time as the evil angels of chapter 9, and the King of the angels, the Destroyer. It is significant that once Christ had risen and established His church there is no mention in Revelation of Satan. He was confined in, and operating from , the Abyss.
Therefore, at the time when Satan is bound it will be under the earth and he will be restricted there during the literal thousand year reign of Christ, which is why he will not be able to deceive the nations.
Satan could not be bound under the earth. He is a mighty spirit being. His binding is by the Spirit through the activity of Jesus Christ. It has nothing to do with earth. How naive to think otherwise.
He and his angels will be completely separated from those who are up on the earth's surface, so that he has no access to them at all. This is the type of binding that Rev.20:1 is speaking of.
Pure invention. Satan could not be restricted in a spiritual place.
When Christ was crucified he took Satan's and the powers of darkness ammunition away
You err not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. Satan was bound by Jesus while He was on earth (Matt 12.28-29), and this was partly emphasised by the ability of the Apostles to cast out evil spirits. They could only do this because Jesus had bound Satan. . The Apostles were able to rejoice because Satan had fallen from Heaven.
The cross further sealed his fate in that his most powerful supporter were led in chains by Jesus (Col 2.15)
and that because the power of sin is the law. Jesus fulfilled the law and paid the penalty for our sins. That has not rendered Satan and his angels from deceiving and tempting.
your vivid imagination again. That had little to do with the defeat of Satan. Satan and his minions can only deceive and tempt us when God lifts His restraint a little. He is limited in what he can do. Your problem is partly that you think of Satan as a physical being, which he is not.
Christ's sacrifice did not bind Satan in the manner described in Rev.20:1.
It did not need to. He had already been bound by Jesus during His lifetime (Matt 12.28-29).
He is still out and about seeking whom he may devour,
No he is not. That verse was referring to human activity stirred up by him through his minions operating from the Abyss.
but when Christ returns and Satan is thrown into the Abyss,
Nowhere does it refer to Satan being thrown in the Abyss after Christ's return. Then, along with the Beast and false prophet he is thrown in the Lake of Fire. Rev 20 is a new vision, not a continuation of Rev 19. That is clear from the fact that Rev 20 is a resume of what has been said before, the release of Satan from the Abyss in rev 9, the short time following his release (rev 17), the continuing reign of Christ and His followers OVER the earth for a long period of time ('a thousand years'), and the final judgment which will occur at Christ's return when the Beast, the false prophet and Satan will be cast in the Lake of fire along with all whose names are not written in the Lamb's book of life.
.
And speaking of the world currently being "much better then before Christ" just wait, the day of the Lord is coming, which will be a time of great distress such as the world has not seen from the beginning, until now and never to be equaled again.
Pure supposition.
God's coming wrath will be carried out via the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments and so the worst is yet to come,
Nonsense, the seals, trumpets and vials have been being carried out through the centuries since the time of John.
which is why Jesus is warning all believers to watch and be ready so that when the bridegroom comes those with the oil of readiness will be prepared to go as soon as the call goes out.
That is in preparation for His coming not in readiness for a fictitious 'great tribulation'. Great tribulation as described in Matt 24 Rev 7 has been occurring through history, the former on the Jews, the latter on Christ's people.
