    No More Death

    Then why aren't you able to explain how if your ONE thousand years are physical and on this earth after Christ returns, can John see souls physically alive after physical death who LIVED and REIGNED with Christ during this period? Nor can you explain how these living souls in life during a...

    No More Death

    That doesn't make sense, because the souls John sees alive during this period of time "were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived...

    Amill does not believe a thousand years means ONE thousand years. That's what differentiates Amill which means NO millennium, from Millennialists who believe a thousand years physically means ONE thousand years.

    No More Death

    We are born again while we are physically alive and spiritually dead! You who were dead in trespasses and sins! Do you think Paul is addressing corpses? Of course not! He's warning us regarding our spiritual state because the Kingdom of God is within you and spiritual, not physical...

    No More Death

    David, I believe you posted these particular verses because you believe they support your doctrinal view. You're not eager to answer my questions directly because if you answer honestly, you would be faced with contradiction of Scripture. If a thousand years equates to time, of which it does...

    No More Death

    You haven't answered the questions I put forth to you. When John writes a thousand years he is speaking of TIME, for which I assume you would agree a thousand years equates to TIME??? How can the thousand years begin after the resurrection of the just since these saints have already lived and...

    No More Death

    Do you believe a thousand years equate to a certain amount of time? Do you also believe that time, whether one thousand literal years, or more has been given this Messianic Gospel age/time?

    No More Death

    Explain how that can be since John writes of faithful saints who are alive because in time, a thousand years, they LIVED and REIGNED with Christ? Since they already lived and reigned, then died for their faith during this age of time how can the first resurrection be the physical resurrection...

    No More Death

    Once again you are trying to force an unbiblical doctrine into the Bible, which causes contradiction which you seem not to be concerned about. When read in context it is clear that Paul is simply telling us the physically dead in Christ will be resurrected before (first) those who are still...

    No More Death

    If I was trying to prove your unbiblical doctrine, I too, like you would ignore Jo 5:28-29 where Christ unapologetically tells us those resurrected to life and those resurrected to damnation shall be physically resurrected from the graves at the same hour that is coming. How could you possibly...

    No More Death

    When John writes a thousand years he is speaking of TIME, for which I assume you would agree a thousand years equates to TIME??? You say this TIME John writes a thousand years does not begin until the second coming of Christ and the resurrection of the just. But John writes that he saw...

    No Resurrection, No Millennium

    I find it hard to believe the lengths you will go attempting to prove an unbiblical doctrine. You really believe the "rest of the dead" who NEVER live or reign with Christ in time are the first resurrection one must have part in to overcome the second death? READ IN CONTEXT! The rest of the...

    No Resurrection, No Millennium

    No it doesn't! You're just making that up! First means the first in order. The dead in Christ are bodily resurrected BEFORE (which is what first means) those still alive in Christ. Look for example at this verse that tells us Adam "the first man" came before the last Adam "a quickening...

    No Resurrection, No Millennium

    First John sees those who LIVED and REIGNED with Christ a thousand years alive after physical death. Revelation 20:4 (KJV) And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of...

    No More Death

    Actually Rev 20 shows the first resurrection is during the time John likens a thousand years. Both vss 4&6 prove this. The resurrection of the rest of the dead or the dead (wicked, unjust, unrighteous, unbelievers) will not be until this age of time, likened to a thousand years has ended.

    No More Death

    Yes the dead in the graves shall be resurrected first, then the faithful who are still alive at His second coming shall be resurrected with them. This is NOT the "first resurrection"! The first resurrection happens in TIME, the bodily resurrection from the graves for both the good and evil...

    No More Death

    John writes that he sees the souls of those who HAVE LIVED and HAVE REIGNED with Christ in this time he likened to a thousand years. Whether literally one thousand years, or symbolically representing time between the first coming and second coming of Christ is really not relevant because a...

    No More Death

    Factually true? Not! There will be only ONE resurrection on the last day, and as Christ tells us in the hour that is coming. If one has not had part in the first resurrection in this age of time, likened to a thousand years, then the bodily resurrection of ALL from the graves in the hour...

    No Resurrection, No Millennium

    Reformed preterist eschatology??? This sounds like a phrase you made up, explain? The first resurrection for faithful saints is not 33AD. The first resurrection is during this time John likens to a thousand years. It is to have part in Christ's resurrection life according to grace through...

    No Resurrection, No Millennium

    The resurrection of the just and unjust in the hour coming is physical or bodily for ALL who are in the graves being resurrected TOGETHER in the hour coming! Those who have done good to resurrection life (consider being caught up to meet the Lord in the air in immortal and incorruptible...
