Our disagreement Robert comes because you want the verse to read Christ saying we should pray Thy Kingdom come to this earth. Christ does not say we should pray that His Kingdom come to this earth. He tells us to pray "Thy Kingdom come" then Christ tells us how our praying for "Thy Kingdom...

Revelation 20:2 (KJV) And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 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...

I know what your point is Robert. I have great confidence in the majority of translations that say, "the Kingdom of God is within you". Why would Christ say this? Because the Kingdom of God within believers is through the Spirit within believers. The Spirit does not enter within us...

I agree the Kingdom of God is not in the Pharisees Jesus spoke to. The Kingdom of God can only be understood and spiritually entered through birth from above. Remember Christ telling Nicodemus "Ye must be born again" or born from above through His Spirit. And though one might question the...

Yes, the 144,000 from Israel of Old are now alive in heaven since they ascended to heaven with Christ after His resurrection. In Rev 7 we first read of the 144,000 of all the tribes of the children of Israel being sealed by the Spirit. To be sealed by the Spirit is to possess eternal spiritual...

What returns with Christ when He comes the second time is not men, but the spirit of men who died with faith in Him. They return a spiritual body from heaven with the Lord to receive resurrected physical body of immortal & incorruptible flesh. Men of faith, because they have physically died in...

We shall be caught up to meet the Lord in the air (raptured) when He comes the second time. If we are still physically alive when Christ returns the second time, we will be caught up together and physically changed with those who return with Him. That is also when all believers are physically...

I agree that when Christ returns His angels will be with Him. Also returning with Christ are the living souls/spirit of those who have died and are with Him a living spirit or as Paul describes a spiritual body. Because the spirit in man will be kept alive through His Spirit in us until we are...

Where/what is the Kingdom that Christ references when He was here casting out devils? Why would Christ say "the Kingdom of God is come upon you?" Luke 11:20 (KJV) But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. And if Jesus had not come with His...

Those coming back with Christ can only come back with Him because they are already spiritually with Him. They cannot be with Him physically because they will not be physically resurrected and changed from mortal to immortal and corruptible to incorruptible until the last trumpet sounds. So, the...

Can't say I would disagree with any of this, but this reply fails to answer my question, I'll repost to give you another opportunity. "If Satan is not currently bound, how are Gentiles from among every nation of the world not being deceived by him, but are instead completing the Kingdom of God...

But Christ does not return with those living (spirit) souls who with Him in the sky until He comes again the second time. When the last trumpet sounds, we will be physically resurrected, and our physical body changed from mortal to immortal and corruptible to incorruptible. At this same hour...

I agree that whosoever has part in the first resurrection have overcome the second death, but they will not become immortal until their bodies are physically resurrected and changed physically from mortal to immortal, and corruptible to incorruptible human bodies. Immortal and incorruptible...

If Christ had not come with the Kingdom of God, why does He tell us that we must be born again to see (understand) and enter His Kingdom? John 3:2-3 (KJV) The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these...

If Satan is not currently bound, how are Gentiles from among every nation of the world not being deceived by him, but are instead completing the Kingdom of God as they hear the Gospel proclaimed and by grace through faith born again? The FACT that Gentiles are being taken out of darkness and...

When the saints are raptured, it is up to meet the Lord in the air. If John is speaking of the rapture, he would not say he would not say they have lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. Do you really believe raptured saints will hang out in the air for one thousand years after Christ...

When John writes the rest of the dead live not again until the thousand years were finished, he is not saying the physical resurrection of the rest of the dead is the first resurrection. Why? Because he has already told us who have lived and reigned with Christ and who shall live with Christ...

Dad, I have no intention of repeating myself ad nauseum because you seem to lack comprehension ability. So, I refer you back to my reply #202 because it is clear from this reply that you either intentionally ignore what I've said there, or as I say, you lack ability to comprehend what I've written.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here Robert. Do you believe there will be two (or more) physical resurrections of mankind separated by one thousand years?

I appreciate your reply Robert. Trying to shorten our replies I hope you don't mind my focusing on only one part of your reply. My focus is on the words of John that I believe are the crux of the differences regarding this time John writes as "a/the thousand years". I don't believe it's...
