AnswerDear Mike,
It is not 7 one thousand year sabbaths, it is 6 thousand years then a one thousand year sabbeth.
2 Peter 3:8 KJV But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one DAY IS WITH THE LORD AS A THOUSAND YEARS, AND A THOUSAND YEARS AS ONE DAY.
The one thousand year sabbeth is the reign of Christ as told in Revelation.
Revelation 20:2-7 KJV And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a THOUSAND YEARS, (3) And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the THOUSAND YEARS should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. (4) And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and REIGNED WITH CHRIST A THOUSAND YEARS. (5) But the rest of the dead lived not again until THE THOUSAND YEARS were finished. This is the first resurrection. (6) Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall REIGN WITH HIM A THOUSAND YEARS. (7) And when THE THOUSAND YEARS are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
I hope this helps.
Your Servant In Christ Jesus,
