Chains, Chains, Chains

And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;

Jude 1:6 (NKJV)

Fallen Angels

Angels that have left their first estate or fallen angels are demons. Servants of Satan!

Did God lock up all of these fallen angels after their fall?

Are there any fallen angels free today?

Before the creation of mankind, there was a war in heaven, and some of the angels decided to follow Satan instead of God. God placed a judgment upon these fallen angels.

Even so, God equally places judgment upon anyone that rejects him.

Job 4:17-19

’Can a mortal be more righteous than God? Can a man be more pure than his Maker? 18If He puts no trust in His servants, If He charges His angels with error, 19How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before a moth?

We are, that is mankind is those that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust. If God who created angels to serve him announced judgment upon those angels that turned against him, then how much more would he judge mankind?

Matthew 25:41

Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ’Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:

Yes God created and prepared a place called Hell, a place of everlasting fire. Hell is a place for Satan and the fallen angels to live throughout eternity.

God does not sent mankind to Hell. Mankind chooses to go there when he rejects God.

2 Peter 2:4

For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;

God has prepared everlasting chains, chains of darkness, in Hell. There reserved for anyone that rejects God.

We cannot escape the judgment of God.

These fallen angels, did not keep their trust in God, but decided to follow after a lie. They gave up eternal life with God, for power and self.

Now God has reserved a place of everlasting chains, chains of darkness, separated from the light of God and over powered with the darkness of deception.

The Great Day of Judgment is at hand.

Great Day of Judgment

Who will be able to stand?

Revelation 6:17

For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?"

2 Corinthians 5:10

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

All will appear before the Great Judgment Seat.

All will be held accountable.

Matthew 12:36

But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.

The wicked will be judged.

Job 21:30

For the wicked are reserved for the day of doom; They shall be brought out on the day of wrath.

The Great Day of Judgment

Psalm 98:9

For He is coming to judge the earth. With righteousness He shall judge the world, And the peoples with equity.

Works and Righteous Living won’t get it!

Matthew 7:22

Many will say to Me in that day, ’Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’

God’s Word Judges you!

John 12:48

He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him--the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.

No one wants to be bound by everlasting chains, those chains of darkness, not even the wick persons of this world.

All of mankind desires peace in the hearts.

Do not be deceived; give your all to God.

There is an eternity.

Where you spend eternity, depends on you.

Everlasting Chains or the everlasting arms of God, the chose is ours.

There is no middle ground.
