I believe Scripture affirms we shall inherit, therefore be inhabitants of the new earth that comes down from God out of heaven as the heavenly city, new Jerusalem after this first earth passes away. But I do understand why you would word it this way.

And we partake of that power through HIM! Unless we partake of the first resurrection THROUGH Christ before we physically die, we have not part in HIM. Once more you deny the words of Christ, for you do not believe Him when He says whosoever lives and believes in HIM shall NEVER DIE!

How can resurrecting from the grave be partaking of the first resurrection through Christ who is the resurrection and the life? The souls John says are alive in heaven as spirits are there because in life, before they died they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. John writes those...

Good Morning David :) Sorry, but you have not proven Gen 1-5 and Rev 20:4-6 prove there will be another one thousand literal years of time given this earth after Christ comes again. What is the purpose for another one thousand more years of time since at His coming again the saints will be...

How does that prove there will be a literal one thousand years of time on this earth after Christ comes again?

Where in any of these chapters and verses can you prove there will be a literal one thousand years of time after Christ comes the second time? If Satan is currently free to deceive the Gentile nations of the earth how are so many from the nations of the earth being saved? Reject your literal...

Where in Genesis can we find there will be one thousand literal years of time after Christ returns?

David, you said: "Anyone who claims that Satan is presently bound in Rev 20:1-4 is denying God's words and causing division". That is what you're doing David! How can Satan be bound a thousand years, the same time the dead in Christ have lived and reigned with Christ, and the same time...

It is bodily/physical death that is swallowed up in victory when Christ comes again. For we who are of the first resurrection in Christ have already overcome the second death which is swallowed up in victory at His coming. The grave is the place for physical bodies, but in Christ we are...

Amen David! Christ is indeed the first resurrection and it is through having part in His resurrection that we are "the first resurrection" spiritually and have overcome the second death through His resurrection life, death and ascension to heaven.

David, you're quoting out of context! The context shows us Paul is simply saying all who are in the graves will be bodily resurrected and changed before those who are still physically alive when He comes again. Both though are caught up TOGETHER to meet the Lord in the air. One must insert one...

David, in agreeing here does this mean that you agree a thousand years is NOT literally ONE thousand years that shall come, but equates to TIME given during this age of God's grace as the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth?

How many thousand year periods of time shall there be? I find only one reference to a thousand years in Rev 20 in which Satan was bound, the dead in Christ lived (past tense) and reigned (past tense) with Christ, and when others shall reign with Christ. All during this same period of a...

David, can you provide the Scripture that tells us the Christ with His saints will rule and reign with Him on thrones on THIS earth? According to Rev 1:6 believers are already a Kingdom of priests through Christ.

According to the creation account man is made of body (dust) spirit (life breathed in), and together became a living soul. In heaven when believers physically die, their body returns to dust, and they as spirit (with life) soul go to heaven to be with Christ. To be fit for everlasting life on...

Yes, David, these martyred souls are spirit souls in heaven after death because in TIME (a thousand years) they lived and reigned with Christ. The same TIME (a thousand years) Satan is bound, and the same TIME (a thousand years) when others shall also reign with Christ in TIME (a thousand...

Yes, David, but it is a literal age of God's grace that is written as a thousand years which equates to TIME. Since the age of God's grace through Christ began with His first coming and will not end until the seventh trumpet sounds that TIME shall be no longer, and that will be when the Gospel...

I agree that mankind now in this age of time experiences past, present and future. But for all who have been born again by His eternal Spirit, have eternal spiritual life through Him from the moment we born again, believe in Christ. Our spirit through the Holy Spirit in us shall NEVER die...

God created time for this earth age. He tells us when time began, how it will be observed and that time shall have an end. When the seventh angel begins to sound there should be time no longer upon this earth, the only time left shall be Satan's "little season", and then this earth along with...

Peace to you also David. I've been away for a few days, much catching up to do.
