No Preterist influence whatsoever, just scriptural truthGood at least you aren't a Preterist, I and communicate well with them.
Agreed with all that except Antichrist in Jerusalem - doesn't have to be there, but you are basing this on the New Temple that He stands in. I don't think a New Temple would a be holy place - but that is another topic
Okay, getting somewhere. Pro-Tribber. Im a Mjd- Trib adherent -out with the 7th (last) Trumpet sound with still more tribulation in the 7 Bowls of God's wrath left.
You take everything literally except for that verse. Isaiah 65 seems to be describing Paradise reborn as it once was on earth. This will be a new earth, but also a new heaven will be created which would explain things. In heaven there will be no more marriage, we will have new bodies. But on earth, harmony amoung animals, woman having babies, death and the curse still in existence speaks of the literal Millennial Kingdom, a paradise in earth, not heaven.
So after the 1000 years, Satan is released for a short time and those who have been born during this time will be tested once again as it literally says, with wars against God and a final judgement of those Millennial sinners. This explains That people will once again live for 1000 years and thise who die 100 years old will be concidered children. Babies will be born, infants playing with cobras is not something going in in heaven. After the 1000 years is when the second death happens - all literal. Blessed are those who do not have to suffer this second death.
So, soon a Great Tribulation as literally spoken of, a literal 1000 years where Christ will literally rule the earth in Jerusalem and then another test when Satan is released, then a New Jerusalem.
Symbolism is evident in scripture. But Jesus will literally return as we saw him leave and He will stand on the mountain in Jerusalem, He will judge the world and rule as King. People throw in symbolism when a verse describing an event just doesn't fit in with their view.
Kind of seems like the Partial Pretersists influenced you a bit, if you are Amillennial?
Ron you disregard the plain and clear teaching of the New Heaven and Earth created in Isaiah, and you sluff it off with the word "Heaven" trying to create two different places, the slight of hand didn't work, the pea is under the shell in the middle
Isaiah 65 & and Revelation 21 is the same exact place in the New Heaven And Earth as seen below, We Will Disagree
Create, make all things New, Former things passed away, no more tears, crying, weeping, and the explanation of a child dying 100 years old, is showing a symbolic eternal in no more death, it's not a literal child dying, the word Hundred could have been Trillion, that seen is the same exact place.
Jesus Is The Lord
(Isaiah) 65:17-20KJV
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.
Revelation 21:1-5KJV
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
