Millennial Life

Q

Do you believe life at the beginning of the millennium will start out being more simple and less complicated? For instance do you think families mostly will be farming, planting vineyards, etc, and using the barter system? I wonder how land will be distributed? Is this where Isaiah 9 comes into fruition; “The government will be upon his shoulders.”

A

I think life on Earth could be very similar to what you’ve described. But if you’re asking for personal reasons, keep in mind that being in the Church you’ll be part of God’s royal family. You won’t live on Earth, but in the New Jerusalem. The Bible gives only the vaguest description of your new home and says nothing at all about what your life there will be like. I think this is because it will be so incredibly superior to anything we can imagine that until our minds are perfected we wouldn’t be able to comprehend it.
