    Understanding the Prophecy of 70 Weeks

    I tend to think #2 might be the best fit given those two options. Option #1 is out of the question. I do not see that remotely fitting Scripture. It leads to bizarre nonsense. That a temple gets rebuilt, animal sacrificing resumes, and in the middle of the week, the AC of all people, puts a...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Whatever came out of the graves, it was obviously transformed into something logical. Meaning that skeletons nor dust of the earth were walking around the holy city being seen by others. And that it didn't include OT saints such as Daniel if Daniel was told to rest until the end of the days...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Roger, granted, that indeed makes sense, yet that is not all there is to consider before deciding where the thousand years logically fit. For example, what I posted per #147. Can't see how any of that doesn't support Premil but somehow supports Amil instead.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Unfortunately, I don't really know what you mean here. Therefore, I can't agree nor disagree since I first need to grasp what you are meaning before I can decide whether you are right or not.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Daniel 12:13 But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days. It is clear as to when OT saints bodily rise. It happens at the end of the days involving the 1290 and 1335 days. Apparently, making the 1335th day the last day of this age. How...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Even though I'm not Amil I still agree that the first resurrection is meaning Christ's, and to have part in it simply means to rise from the dead bodily and receive an immortal body the same way Christ did.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    How could they not be the fact this little season they are told to rest is paralleling a little season back on earth involving the martyring of their brethren? Regardless where one wants to place the timing of this little season back on earth, it is obviously meaning after Christ already died...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Let's try this angle then though it is obviously futile the fact you are an Amil, thus the following contradicts Amil not agrees with it instead. For you or any other Amil to admit that though, that is never going to happen, at least not in this age anyway. IMO the following is pertaining to...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    One thing that proves martyrs aren't co reigning in heaven with Christ sitting on thrones, is the following. Revelation 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10 And they...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    What about the following, for example? Revelation 22:4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. 5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. To...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    1 Corinthians 15:12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: 14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Can't say I have ever thought of it like that. But now that you mention it, you might have a valid point here after all. One thing that doesn't seem reasonable is this. That when they live again, and if this is meaning the moment satan is loosed, it can't be meaning bodily in that case, as in...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Is or is not after satan's little season has ended, that this is meaning after the thousand years have expired? Obviously, it would be meaning after the thousand years expired since the end of satan's little season couldn't possibly be meaning before the thousand years begin. Nor can it be...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Apparently then, to get to the bottom of this debate involving the thousand years, understanding why the rest of the dead don't live again until after the thousand years, is relevant. Does it mean the rest of the dead meant here are all bodily dead at the beginning of the thousand years and...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Rev 20:4 was a current reality.

    Here we go with this nonsense again. It was nonsense when you used this argument on BF years ago, it's still equally nonsensical now. Here's the reason why it's nonsense. Revelation 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, The text plainly, thus...

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

    Speaking of that post you are addressing, what is your interpretation of what was being meant here since he was saying this to me, in particular, what I underlined, since you are pretty good at discerning what someone is meaning when they say certain things like that? and by extension, he’s...

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

    That sounds like something I can see making sense per Amil, except Amils apparently don't see it making sense. Per Amil it could mean the ones that fall away(2 Thessalonians 2:3) are the ones meant in Revelation 20:7-9. Towards the end of the thousand years assuming this scenario, all of these...

    The Millennial Kingdom

    Why would that not be an immortal body once He rises from the dead? Obviously, maybe not to you though, the very moment He rose from the dead He became immortal. How could He not be immortal the fact He was apparently walking around with no blood flowing through His veins, for one? After all...

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

    And what happens to that spiritual resurrection if we factor in not once saved always saved? Of course though, if memory serves me, you don't believe NOSAS is Biblical to begin with. Yet, the following example clearly, undeniably, proves NOSAS is 100% Biblical. Romans 11:18 Boast not against...

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

    I pretty much understand it like Amil understands it, except I don't see it being applicable to the first resurrection meant in Revelation 20. In my mind, that resurrection is meaning bodily the same way the resurrection after the thousand years is meaning bodily. There are other reasons as...
