Okay,
@Earburner. I do not think that the Gospel will ever stopped being preached. I believe it reached the world known at the time for the purpose of the fulfilment of the gentiles coming in to trample Jerusalem, was all on Yahavah by the use of the Romans to crush Jerusalem. But it seems you do not agree with that interpretation which is okay. To me the reason why the Gospel should never stopped being preached, is because Jesus promised his words would never go away, and that would mean that there are people to still continue to enter into the Kingdom of God while here on earth with the Kingdom of God being in the heart of believers, who have God dwelling inside of them, in hope for going on to be with Yahavah after this life. That is why there is no reason for Yahavah to take out the world as it is today, he took out the world that was of that day. Not to say that America can bankrupt itself, or civil unrest, or bombs dropped on it, or volcano reactivates all of a sudden. Gotta continue to hope and trust Yahavah, as one goes in faith and endure whatever may happened to the end to be saved to the Kingdom after this life choosing to serve God and love God first and love others.
I understand your perspective. However, I believe that the 1000 years is figurative for the present Age of God's Grace through faith in Jesus. God has put no time limit on it, however there is an end to it, due to no one turning to God in repentance.
Rev. 16:9
And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and
they repented not to give him glory.
Rev. 16:11
And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and
repented not of their deeds.
Rev. 9:20
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet
repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
Rev. 9:21
Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
EDIT: let's all be reminded of the words of Jesus, and
THE Day of
His return from Heaven, in all His Immortal Glory:
Luke 17
26 And as it was in the days of Noe,
so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage,
until THE DAY that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 But THE SAME DAY [24 hours] that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 EVEN THUS shall it be IN THE DAY WHEN the Son of man is revealed.
2 Thes. 1:7-10
