    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Rubbish. I'll... read on here to see how you make such an assertion... Ah, well, it's not about literally sitting on a throne, it's about being in power and authority. And Jesus said, as I'm sure you remember, that He and the Father are one. You're a very smart person, Timtofly, but taking...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Sure. Well, if so, that makes them... bad "Amils." Um, that's a very tongue-in-cheek remark... :) Right, well, it's not about hard numbers, and it's not really about how many cities... or even cities, for that matter... Right, that's backwards, really... Right, it's backwards. If there...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    True. Some think the Mount of Olives, some think Mount Sinai, some think in Jerusalem, some think, more or less, all of the above. :) But it will be here on earth... before New Jerusalem comes down out of heaven to us... This is where the unrepentant are sent as a result of the final...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    The Judgment depicted by Jesus in Matthew 25:31-46 and the Judgment depicted in the vision given to John in Revelation 20:11-15 are one and the same, yes. Right, Jesus returns, and executes the final Judgment. Hm, interesting. Very rarely have I heard Jesus's parable of Luke 19 brought up as...

    PAST-Millennialism

    Hey, just so we're all clear here, I'm going to point out ~ because we all need reminding of this, and often ~ what Paul says in Galatians 5... "Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger...

    PAST-Millennialism

    Yes, you know everything... <chuckles> I get that loud and clear... I hope so, but from my vantage point it doesn't appear so. That He will... Hm, well, I say it's utterly self-deceiving to think of yourself as better than anyone else... and in and of yourself as righteous (or anywhere...

    I understand your position. Starting with verse 7, I agree. Grace and peace to you.

    I know what I stated, TN. If you have a point to make, make it. LOL! Again, if you have a point to make, make it. Otherwise… thanks. Grace and peace to you.

    Understanding the The 1000 Year Millennium in Prophecy

    Revelation 19:11-21 is (roughly speaking, because the focus is slightly different), analogous in timeframe to Revelation 20:7-10. Revelation 16:14,16 and Revelation 17:14 and Revelation 19:11-21 and Revelation 20:7-10 all depict this final battle. But yes, this is basically the root of the...

    PAST-Millennialism

    Yes. So, then, going back to your question before: I still do not understand this question. "Under the same day..." What do you mean by that? And "attached to God only"... what do you mean by that? No offense, but I can't even make sense of this question. Grace and peace to you.

    PAST-Millennialism

    Great! Hmm, well, I guess it depends on what you mean or are referring to when you say “the Lord’s day” and what you mean or are referring to when you say 1000 years. That may come across to you as coy, or playing with words, or some such, but no… You speak as if this has not happened yet… :)...

    PAST-Millennialism

    Not. :) No. :) To God ~ from His perspective ~ a day is... simultanously... as 1000 years to God, and a thousand years as a day. Hmm, well, I say let's say it's not. :) Because if we do, it's just... well, neither here nor there. :) I think there's 120 years in between (if my math is...

    PAST-Millennialism

    LOL! Hoo boy. :) Right, which is... well, in my opinion, at least, ridiculous... :) ...and I am thus surely not that person... Ah, now, that's a point worth addressing, although not for the reasons you think. I actually don't like the term "amillennialism," as the 'a' prefix can really...

    PAST-Millennialism

    That’s the answer TN: just yes. God plainly told Adam that he would die that very day, so he (and Eve) must have died. However, it is quite evident that his and Eve’s mortal life did not end that very day, so the question that remains is, what kind of death did they experience?What does it...

    Which view does Zechariah 14 support? Premil or Amil?

    That seemed like a pretty good break; here's the rest... There is only one Israel, Randy, and it is not an earthly nation-state. It is not insignificant that the physical nation-state Israel actually was actually constituted in 1948, but God's Israel is much greater than that, at any one point...

    Which view does Zechariah 14 support? Premil or Amil?

    Hm. Okay, but I think that's a big part of this. I'm not going to attribute this directly to you, Randy, but there are some things that people try to separate that cannot be separated. Well, we should lay aside any predetermined ~ yes, based on biases ~ conclusions, for sure. But at least as...

    Which view does Zechariah 14 support? Premil or Amil?

    Point taken about not getting the two confused, of course, but I would turn that around to you Randy and say, let's not soft-pedal either one either, especially the latter; yes, He has always been King. To what you say initially here... I would put it more in terms of what Paul says to the...

    Which view does Zechariah 14 support? Premil or Amil?

    I am most certainly not a Preterist. However, Christ did say He was King, and His Kingdom was not of this world, and the Kingdom here now, several times in His earthly ministry, Randy. And as you know, He was worshiped as King even at His birth by the shepherds, who were told by the angel that...

    PAST-Millennialism

    And trying to get you to do the same. :) You're nowhere near perfect, Ghada. None of us are. We are both, for now. One day, though, we will no longer be the latter, but only the former. As does Paul, when he exhorts us to put off the old man and put on the new: "...put off your old self...

    Which view does Zechariah 14 support? Premil or Amil?

    In view of the above, then... Well, you know, I'm going to quote a great commentator... :) (emphasis [bold text] mine): ZECHARIAH PREFACE: "...the people had to contend with various and most grievous trials. Satan had already raised up great opposition to them; but there were still greater...
