I am on this photo! discussing about the "Analysis of Revelation 20: 1-8" I was focused on two Main Points: " Is the 1000 years Literal or Figurative?" and the "Missing Ingredients of Premillenialism (not found in Rev.20). Then I proceed to Analysis of Revelation 20 from Verses 1 to 8. We need to discussed this topic due to the misunderstanding of Revelation 20 by many of the religious group today, having believed on literal 1000 years, seven years tribulations, earthly kingdom of Christ, etc. all of these are misconception by those in the denominations...!
