Yes, Revelation 20 does surely tell us of Jesus's rule during the millennium, but I disagree with you regarding the nature of the millennium (not on whether there is one or not, for sure) on at least two bases, the first being that it is literally a one thousand, 365-day, period (I say it's...

So, you know the approximate date of Christ's return, Keraz? Like, give or take maybe a week or two? :) Oh, and His second second ~ repitition of 'second' intentional, so, really third ~ return, since you're a premillennialist? :) Grace and peace to you.

Well, yes, I agree. Absolutely. So many think, but they misunderstand what it means for Satan not to be able to deceive the nations. But that's really okay; at least they know Satan is able to seduce and deceive and are hopefully on their guard, having put on the full armor of God and thus...

Disagree. The meaning is the same, but I prefer the wording of the English Standard Version (ESV): "I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, Who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season...

Okay, there's really no difference, but my preferred versions are the English Standard Version (ESV), the New American Standard Bible (NASB), and the New International Version (NIV), in that order. Here's the ESV: "Jesus said to them, 'Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the Son of Man...

I'm... not even sure what you mean by this, but, well, by that same token, Premills apparently don't think Christ is King... To answer what you say here, though, Christ is certainly capable and worthy of reigning over this fallen world... and is doing so even in the midst of all manner of...

Undoubtedly true. Our bodily resurrection at the end of the age, at Christ's return, will be just as His was. Yes, this resurrection of Ephesians 2:6 is a real thing, not of the physical body, but of the spirit. We were dead in our sin/trespasses and have been raised and are seated in spirit...

I'm... not sure I understand... What do you mean by "the eternity of the Kingdom of God"? Ah, well, I'll answer the way I think I understand the question... No, in eternity, in the New Heaven and New Earth, there will be no more sin. There will be no more sin or death. As Isaiah puts it...

Hm. So you do seem to believe in annihilation. No, our God is a consuming fire, Hobie. Which should give you some relevant information concerning the lake of fire… Do you or do you not believe the wicked are annihilated and thus cease to exist after the final Judgment? Hopefully not… The...

As does Paul, in 1 Timothy 6:3-11… “…If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for...

I’m going to speak to this post one more time; pardon me if I am repeating something I already posted… I fully agree with you here (at least), David ~ no, the earth is not engulfed in literal flames; to suppose so is a terrible misconstruing of “the fire coming down from heaven” in Revelation...

Well good. :) Grace and peace to you.

I agree that there is no real incarceration, but an absolute removal ~ for now ~ of Satan’s ability to enter into the courts of the Lord, which we can easily see from Job’s story he, Satan, once had: Job 1:6-12 portrays Satan as possessing the ability to come into God's immediate presence along...

LOL! God is the Lord, and the Lord is God. So in that sense, there is no distinction. But there is certainly a distinction in personhood ~ and function, of course ~ between God the Father and God the Son (and God the Holy Spirit). :) Are you a Jehovah’s Witness, Timtofly? There certainly is...

Absolutely not, of course. I mean, I get the rhetorical nature of the question here, but still… Right, but not the Father (or the Spirit). Now, Jesus was never not one with the Father, and the Father was never not one with Jesus, so in that sense we agree. But Jesus, while on the Cross, cried...

Well, I already do… :) My goodness. You’re an interesting person, Timtofly. I’d like to know how you come into such things. :) Again, no actual thrones. But certainly in the Seat… God is one… of power over all creation, both now and eternally. And neither the Father nor the Spirit were...

Revelation 20, beginning in verse 7, is a future reality (the "will be" is future tense and indicative of that). The passage from Revelation 20:7-10 is analogous and concurrent, time-wise, with Revelation 19:11-21. It is the final conflict in which Jesus defeats, once and for all, all His...

Hmm, I think he hates it... the truth is often that way... and wishes with all his being that he were still able to deceive the nations, and longs for the day ~ is chomping at the bit for that day ~ when he will be loosed and able to do so again. :) But when that day comes, much to his...

There is nothing in this verse particularly or in the Bible that indicates that any person is annihilated or ceases to exist. Two points: What you have in bold has implications both for the believer and unbeliever before his/her physical death ~ life "under the sun," as the preacher of...

No... :) Yes... :) Three, with/including the Spirit... :) No... :) At the very least, the Father is Spirit (John 4:24), so He doesn't have a body, and, so, He's not literally sitting on a throne (no matter the color) :) It's about His absolute authority. I do agree with you, however...
