Can you show me anywhere in the New Testament where this supposed 1,000 year kingdom on earth is referenced?

That passage is what I was discussing with David in NJ when you chimed in asking who are the two witnesses. Was that by mistake then? I responded to you about the two witnesses in a different post, but that was not the post that you replied to. I think you must have meant to reply to that other...

Scripture does not differentiate between those two things as if they were two separate events. When He comes, He will come in fire and in glory. Trying to say Him coming in fire and returning in glory are two different events is the kind of thing people come up with when they need to twist...

Wait a minute. I'm not sure if you're thinking this through carefully. Scripture teaches that death (and by implication, hell) will be swallowed up in victory at the last trumpet, which will sound when the dead in Christ are raised at Christ's return (1 Cor 15:22-23;50-54). You say this will...

Yes, and He is spiritually in our hearts as well. Right, but His Church is part of His kingdom. Which is why scripture indicates that we are in His kingdom now. Colossians 1:12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the...

You are the one who said this: "Uh He who WAS Here and Human Eyes could See?…called the Son of Man….and WHO shall every Eye See When He Returns? Uh the Son of Man". Uh...how can you not see how childish this was? Saying "Uh.." multiple times was childish for one thing. And acting like I...

You are lying. This is what you said to WPM: Timtofly said: "You seem to think ill of God and His redemptive work on the Cross.". How can that be taken out of context? It's pretty straightforward. Why don't you just apologize for this insult instead of acting like I somehow took that very...

Where do I start? There are so many. I'll just start with one. You believe that Jesus doesn't reign in His kingdom until after He returns because of your understanding of the chronology of Revelation 19 and 20. Scripture, however, teaches that He has been reigning since His resurrection (see...

Did you read my question? What you said here doesn't answer it in any way, shape or form. So, I will ask it again. What do you believe is the reason that we would meet Him in the air if we supposedly just come right back down to the earth afterwards? How does that make any sense? No, the...

Because they didn't repent after being given many opportunities to do so while they had the chance. Why do you think scripture gives the impression that reaching the lost is so urgent? Why does it talk about today (now) being the day of salvation if it doesn't really matter when people are saved...

If that had something to do with people being literally tortured in some way then I would actually agree with that. But, that isn't what I believe eternal torment means. Eternal separation from God is not ridiculous at all when you consider how many opportunities God gives people to repent. If...

Right. That doctrine is not only false, but completely insane. Letting these monsters off the hook who did many evil things without ever repenting of them? I guess God is okay with that, according to Patrick1966? What unbelievable nonsense the universal salvation doctrine is. It's ridiculous.

Would you not be frustrated if I asked you a question that doesn't even apply to what you told me you believe multiple times? I think you would be.

Show me where it says otherwise. Your opinion without scriptural support for it means nothing to me.

What does that have to do with Zechariah 14:16-21? Nothing as far as I can tell. Okay...

Do you have a reading comprehension problem? Or perhaps a memory problem? I told you already more than once that my understanding of torment is not torture, but rather refers to being in mental torment because of regretting that they did not repent and believe when they had the chance (before...

What, a verse which states that people are not given the opportunity to repent and be saved after they die? Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Once a person dies their fate is sealed. They will give an account of themselves on judgment day...

@David in NJ What did you find to be funny about what I said here? Are you somehow not aware that celebrating the feast of tabernacles involved performing animal sacrifices? It's no wonder that you would try to laugh this off when your belief leads to the necessity for animal sacrifices being...

Don't act like a child the way you did in that post and then I won't accuse you of childishness. Very simple. Yes, but what you fail to understand is that the thousand years is figurative, similar to how the word "thousand" is used figuratively elsewhere in scripture such as the references to...

You clearly missed the point. You should want to interpret verses in the book of Revelation in such a way that it doesn't contradict other scripture. But, that does not appear to be of any concern to you.
