    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    Exactly Marty! Their minds and hearts are fixated on an earthly physical Kingdom of God, so they miss the Kingdom of God that NOW is a spiritual Kingdom. Not understanding the Kingdom of God is within you, how can one know they have been born again? So many go around professing to have been...

    Isaiah 65:17 vs. Revelation 21:1. How many NHNEs does that equal?

    That's because you are not looking to be convinced your Premillennial doctrine is not biblical! You come to the forums only to prove your preconceived doctrine, not to have understanding of Biblical truths. That's why you are constantly avoiding and running from anything or anyone that does...

    Isaiah 65:17 vs. Revelation 21:1. How many NHNEs does that equal?

    Mortality indicates we shall physically die! It seems one of the biggest stumbling blocks for Premillennialists is lacking understanding of when/how all who have been born again of the Spirit already HAVE eternal/everlasting life through Christ's Spirit within us. When the Spirit of Christ is...

    Isaiah 65:17 vs. Revelation 21:1. How many NHNEs does that equal?

    Although I don't think you would disagree, I would say at the second coming of Christ those who already have eternal/everlasting life through Christ's Spirit within us, shall be physically resurrected immortal & incorruptible.

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

    Of course, John does not say the first resurrection is of those martyred physical flesh! John isn't stupid! He understands there shall be none bodily resurrected before an hour coming, when the last trumpet sounds, that TIME shall be no longer! Why would John say they have been physically...

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

    NO! That's you assuming what you do not understand! If you don't understand the Kingdom of God has come, how do you know you have been born again? Christ tells us that we will know and enter the Kingdom of God when we are born again. If you don't understand that fundamental truth from...

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

    Yes, sadly I understand you believe what you want to believe. You don't even acknowledge the FACT that the Kingdom of God has come. My Lord is not a liar! How can your Lord not be a liar if physical resurrection is all we can hope for? My Lord has given me assurance that the life that I...

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

    Really? The way I'm choosing to read it is through that which is written without reading my opinion into the words John wrote, as you do. It is he, not I speaking of these martyred souls saying, "they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." No matter how you believe a thousand years...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    How many profess to having been born again, but do not understand that when one is born again they both know and have entered the Kingdom of God? So many professing to have been born again, don't believe the Kingdom of God has come. Why would one believe they have been born again yet deny the...

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

    I was tempted to simply write LOL! But the depth of your lack of knowledge and the arrogance premillennialists display about the doctrine of Amil goes beyond laughable. Your doctrine has beheaded souls physically brought to life again on this earth without a head! How else would John know...

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

    I am praying "Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven" because I long for the Kingdom of God that is NOW in this age within me, but incomplete, to be filled completely with all who shall be saved and then the Kingdom of God shall come down from heaven to the new earth...

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

    The Kingdom of God is within you, and when His Kingdom is within you, through His Spirit you have come into the paradise of God. Christ instructs us to pray for this to come because the Kingdom of God within us must be complete before Christ shall come again. Is that not something to look...

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

    The wonderful thing about being a child of God is knowing that when my flesh breathes its last, I shall still be alive with my Lord. If my hope were in this life only, I would be most miserable, knowing that mortal death shall take me from my Lord, because NONE shall be physically resurrected...

    CALVINISM: The height of Spiritual depravity

    God predestinating any man to hell? What a lack of Biblical knowledge this statement shows. Did God force Adam & Eve to disobey Him, or did they freely choose to disobey Him? God created them "very good", and still they of their own free will chose to listen to the voice of evil and eat from...

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

    All Israel is completed by Gentiles being grafted in together with them, and together they are "the Israel of God." All Israel is not an ethnic people but all people of faith.

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

    Though it speaks of the remnant of Old saved, there shall be an innumerable multitude from all nations of the earth that shall be saved. I've often wondered if "the remnant" applies to all nations, and together the whole becomes the innumerable multitude? But this could simply be me having...

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

    It seems it's important to you Pinseeker? Paul does not contradict himself, speaking of his kinsmen according to the flesh, Paul writes, "only the remnant shall be saved." You can read the words of Paul anyway you like, but that does not change the FACT that Paul does not say after the...

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

    The real problem I find with the opinion of a mass conversion of ethnic Jews after the last Gentile has been saved is how to reconcile that with Paul saying more than once that only the remnant of Jews would be saved? Since the advent of Christ, Jews, like every other ethnic people of the earth...

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

    I've already shown you from the Scriptures why there cannot be a mass conversion of ethnic Jews to Christ after the fullness of the Gentiles have come into the Kingdom of God. Do you not agree the mystery hidden of old and made known in the new was that Gentiles would complete the Kingdom of God?

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

    How many times must I tell you that I agree with you? I know that anastasis is a bodily/physical resurrection from the dead! That's why in life, before we physically die, we MUST have part in the bodily/physical resurrection life through Christ to overcome the second death. Because Christ is...
