After the 1,000 year period Satan is loosed for a season (not specified) whereupon he would deceive the nations, attempting to put an end to Christianity once and for all, only to see God Himself devour them.  Satan is then cast into the Lake of Fire, to receive eternal torment.  Then all persons who ever lived are raised one final time, the Books are opened (especially the Book of Life); those not found in the Book of Life are cast into the Lake of Fire.  Death and Hades are also cast into the Lake of Fire, this is the Second Death.  At this point time as we know it on Earth ceases.
