Mat 3:7
But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
"I think we have to assume that if a Jewish prophet in the first century warns the leaders of Israel about the wrath to come, tells them that trees which do not bear good fruit will be cut down, and uses the language of threshing, chaff, winnowing and fire, he is speaking, as the prophets did, about God’s judgment on Jerusalem."

The New Covenant was Confirmed in the last week.
Jeremiah 31:31-34
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Premills, it says "for they shall all know me," are you saying there isn't a New Covenant if everyone isn't Christian?

New King James Version
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, [a]“Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”

Lady wisdom, proverbs,
Is the creation what greater manifestation of God's wisdom than everything He ever created and those of faith are born through true wisdom faith in Christ,
Jesus references lady wisdom, and her seed as the woman's seed in revelation,
Luke 7 35
But wisdom is proved right by all her children.” (Jesus speaking.)
Who are her Children those who will have faith and will hear and see and will not be blind those who will find life
Revelation12 17
Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring—those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.
Yes many think the church or Eve Mary but no it is quite rightly God's Wisdom who's riches are finer than choice Gold,
Those who persue what they will never have (satan persuing God's wisdom, folly)
Proverbs 23 5
Cast but a glance at riches(God's wisdom in this case), and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle.
Rev 12
13When the dragon saw that he had been hurled to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. 14The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle, so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the wilderness, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time, out of the serpent’s reach
The woman/wisdom ther riches the dragon/satan covets he does not get so instead he wages war with the children of Wisdom those in Christ in Faith.

Except he kills a bunch of people so he actually does not defeat death at the second coming. He uses death! And he isn't alone, his father will also kill people long after the second coming using fire. Then of course is the second death which proves death was not yet defeated. Only at this time will death be defeated:
Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Anyone that says death is defeated any time before this verse does not know what they are talking about.
