His use of colors, facial details of glory and despair are throughout. “Satan is bound during the Millennium-The Saints will then live and reign with Christ-The dead stand before God and are judged out of the books according to their works” (Mathew).

religious commitment. They state that education should not be used to constrain the showing or acknowledgement of any doctrine or to force adjustment to any particular religious conviction or practice.
